600 <br /> requires and what the County is proposing and then add to it all the DEN <br /> systems and what their current reporting requirements are and what the County. <br /> is proposing in terms of monitoring and maintenance. <br /> Commissioner Gordon asked that space be provided for the rationale for <br /> each recommendation justifying the frequency when they are different from the <br /> State requirements because the State is the minimum. <br /> Commissioner Willhoit indicated that it would be helpful to know what <br /> the operator is required to do and what permits they must have and the <br /> monitoring and maintenance requirements. Dan Reimer indicated that some of <br /> this information is on the summary of DEM monitoring reports included in the <br /> proposal. <br /> The Board agreed that it would be necessary to have another work session <br /> after the above information is prepared. - <br /> Chair Carey referred to the list of responsibilities on page 25 and 26 <br /> of the proposal and was told that some of these are current but most are <br /> proposed responsibilities. Commissioner Insko asked that the ones that are <br /> current be marked accordingly. The responsibilities of DEM are outlined in <br /> the memo of understanding which is included in the proposal. <br /> Commissioner Gordon asked for some indication of the minimum that is <br /> needed to protect public health and what would be add-ons above that and the <br /> cost benefits of those. She feels it important to set up a system to protect <br /> the public health but one that the County can afford. Dan Reimer indicated <br /> this could be answered in the justification of the frequency of the <br /> inspections and why it must be done at all or as often. <br /> Chair Carey made reference to the memorandum of agreement and stated <br /> that there are some things that need to be considered for incorporating into <br /> this agreement. These things include the Class VII sites and what Orange <br /> County can do about where they occur. Since the County does not permit these <br /> sites, the County will have to have an agreement with DEM for them to take <br /> into consideration what the County thinks is important about locating these <br /> sites. He asked that the agreement not be revised right now, but to keep <br /> this factor in mind for later. <br /> Dan Reimer stated that he will revise the chart to expand the <br /> description of each kind of system that requires a different inspection <br /> frequency from both DEM and DEH. In the process, he will not only include <br /> what is currently required as of July, 1991, but also what the County is <br /> proposing that is different from that and the justification. Under the. <br /> responsibilities section, he will clarified DEM's responsibility and the <br /> County's responsibility and he will examine the memorandum of understanding <br /> to clarify the County's role in the location of Class VII sites. <br /> With no further comments, the work session was adjourned at 9:45. <br /> Moses Carey, Jr. , Chair <br /> Beverly A.
