APPROVED WITH AMENDMENT 2.7.24
<br /> 300 Statler Gilfillen: Or all of that type of wood, which is an industrial use, is sent, if it's usable, will be sent to a
<br /> 301 mill, right?
<br /> 302
<br /> 303 Craig Nishimoto: Yes.
<br /> 304
<br /> 305 Statler Gilfillen: And you might store some of that on the site, but you don't do any work on it, right?
<br /> 306
<br /> 307 Craig Nishimoto: That's correct.
<br /> 308
<br /> 309 Statler Gilfillen: Okay. So you're limit is a place to take the natural products you're taking care of. You
<br /> 310 need a place to store them. Now, once you've stored them on your site, what do you do with them then?
<br /> 311
<br /> 312 Craig Nishimoto: Okay, so it depends on what it is. But saw logs, for example, we need to wait until we
<br /> 313 have sufficient quantity, and we need to stage them. This is pulp wood, this is high grade, white oak, Randall
<br /> 314 we'll use at Fireside Saw Mill, or these are pine logs that will go somewhere else, or these are veneer logs or
<br /> 315 something like this, but what we haven't been able to do is, because of these small loads and mixed loads of
<br /> 316 what we get here and there, is bring them to any good use, so we stage them temporarily. When there's
<br /> 317 enough white oak logs, for example, we can put those in the back of a truck and then take them to the highest
<br /> 318 possible use, typically very local.
<br /> 319
<br /> 320 Statler Gilfillen: If I understand what you've just said and what I've read, then you are, basically, that's
<br /> 321 staging recycling area where the products, the natural waste, at this point is brought to, and then distributed
<br /> 322 from this site?
<br /> 323
<br /> 324 Craig Nishimoto: Correct.
<br /> 325
<br /> 326 Statler Gilfillen: It's a recycling center in a sense for the natural?
<br /> 327
<br /> 328 Adam Beeman: If you call it recycling center, it might draw a lot of big alarms like we're —
<br /> 329
<br /> 330 Statler Gilfillen: It might be perceived as industrial. That's not—
<br /> 331
<br /> 332 Craig Nishimoto: Yeah. It's not, it's—We,we got some wood chips here.
<br /> 333
<br /> 334 Adam Beeman: So, I guess the question is, before we start questioning him, are you satisfied with your
<br /> 335 presentation? Do you want to wrap it up and open the floor to questions? Typically, I would like you to finish
<br /> 336 your presentation, then we'll open the floor, and we'll go around in an orderly fashion so we're not playing
<br /> 337 popcorn question or—
<br /> 338
<br /> 339 Craig Nishimoto: Let me go through what I think will be valuable, skipping a lot of stuff. When we had the
<br /> 340 Neighborhood Information Meeting, two things came up that were what seemed like this is valuable. One,we
<br /> 341 need to explain what we do and how we operate because there was like, "what is a tree service?" We're not a
<br /> 342 logging operation. We're not these big land clearing operations. That's an entirely different industry. And then
<br /> 343 the other concerns was the concerns about noise and traffic, so I wasn't prepared at the NIM, but I'm now
<br /> 344 prepared to answer those things, so that's what I have a further addressed. And then "what is the Treeist."
<br /> 345 Now, this I think I'm going to skip over because it's more storytelling that you guys are too serious to want to
<br /> 346 worry about.
<br /> 347
<br /> 348 Adam Beeman: I guess the biggest thing, if you just want to tack down your day, like you have a couple
<br /> 349 offices, the residence, what the residence is for, how many trucks you expect to roll in and out,just kind of a
