sewer element of it there are some pre-treatment requirements that al utility providers have. And we could note that 162 <br />they must meet the environmental regulations of the utility. For example, Morinaga; there is a pre-treatment function 163 <br />so there’s not high level organic matter that goes in the sewer that can create issues. 164 <br /> 165 <br />Michael Harvey: I guess I was asking; is that covered somewhere else? Or because we’re permitting this by right are 166 <br />we leaving the door open for a big use? 167 <br /> 168 <br />Craig Benedict: I think either turn it into a policy, like a small area planning policy so that we have be aware in of that 169 <br />and I agree if you have something permitted by right you better have some way to have it black and white; it’s okay 170 <br />by the site plan or it’s not okay by the site plan. So, I’ll work with Michael and Ashley to see if there’s a way to keep 171 <br />that in mind. 172 <br /> 173 <br />Michael Harvey: Also, remember that just because something is permitted by right, there are still regulatory 174 <br />permitting processes that we may say we could use. But using this example, if a local utility or even the state says 175 <br />you can’t do what you’re proposing in this manner. 176 <br /> 177 <br />Tony Blake: But given what’s going on in politics right now, relying on the EPA or the state for things like that might 178 <br />not be the wisest. 179 <br /> 180 <br />Craig Benedict: The one area we may consider is some of those performance measurements. Vibration, glare, and 181 <br />soot; maybe we could have some sort of sewer. 182 <br /> 183 <br />Tony Blake: Yeah, or require them to contain whatever it is and dispose of it in some other way, elsewhere… What 184 <br />I’m worried about is somebody is going to come in here and do something that’s potentially dangerous or harmful and 185 <br />not be properly regulated. 186 <br /> 187 <br />Lydia Wegman: But as Michael says the EPA or the state. They would have to have some kind of hazardous waste 188 <br />disposal or incineration permit in order to do that. 189 <br /> 190 <br />Ashley Moncado continued presentation. 191 <br /> 192 <br />Craig Benedict: And the last thing, if you have any more comments on this or any of the other Board Members have 193 <br />comments send them to Ashley and before the next meeting we’ll try to answer them. So feel free to send Ashley 194 <br />some additional comments. 195 <br /> 196 AGENDA ITEM 3: ADJOURNMENT 197 198 <br />Meeting was adjourned by consensus. 199 <br /> 200 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> 8
