Mr. Husveth does not have information provided to him as of yet. <br />Ms. Bor asked if neighbors were interviewed as to sightings of the Blanding's turtle. Mr. <br />Husveth received a letter last year from Raymond Stadum. Ms. Bor wants to know <br />where the turtles travel and where would they lay their eggs. Ms. Bor read Raymond <br />Stadum's letter. Ms. Bor wanted to know if we could highlight the area where the turtle's <br />were spotted. Mr. Husveth said there is a process for getting reliable and credible <br />documentation. Mr. Husveth has spent hundreds of hours on the site over the past years. <br />He has not seen a Blanding's turtle on the site, however if he had he would be very <br />excited about it. If we want to add more detail about the turtles, we need letters that have <br />facts and locations. Ms. O'Dea said we should get the information in the EAW.

Mr. Smyser stated <br />the roadways have not been designed as of yet nor the holding ponds. <br />Ms. Grundhofer wanted to know if the salt from roadway plowing will cause a problem <br />for wetlands. Mr. Grochala stated the water quality and storm water infiltration issue will <br />address those issues. Mr. Husveth stated they will use plants that are more salt tolerant. <br />4 DRAFT MINUTES
