4 <br /> QUESTIONS <br /> �TCHRIS <br /> �IRBEST <br /> ��ASKED <br /> �G �LDEONOAPRILg3�OMld893IONERB <br /> 1 . For the Commissioners that have publicly endorsed the <br /> Seven Mile Creek site where do you think the two task <br /> forces and the Hazen & Sawyer reports that cost the <br /> County approximately $50,000 misjudged the data when <br /> they endorsed the McGowan Creek site. <br /> 2. Discuss the interpretations of the merits of the <br /> different sites first by clarifying the specifics of the <br /> two proposed sites being looked at, i.e. , instream flow, <br /> total storage capacity, net cost per gallon, site <br /> elevations - which tables apply? <br /> 3. Discuss the very different degrees of hydrologic risk <br /> involved with each site. From an engineering standpoint, <br /> the drought risks during the estimated safe yield for <br /> the two sites is quite different. (20 year safe yield) <br /> 4. There is a water quality issue paper by the USGS <br /> "Effects ream Flow and <br /> entitled Effects of High Runoff on <br /> Instream <br /> in <br /> the Seven Mile Creek Basis." Have the <br /> Qu Y <br /> Commissioners seen this and discussed it? <br /> 5. Discuss the cost difference in gallons produced. . Some <br /> figures show as such as .50/gallon difference and more <br /> than one million dollars between the two sites. <br /> 6. Discuss the preservation issue involving historic <br /> structures on both sites and the sugar maple bottom on <br /> the Seven Mile Creek site. <br /> FILE: RESVOR6.DOC <br /> 4/11/89 <br />
