Carried 4-0; Morgan abstain. Further discussion of above: --Mottaz - we've been advised by our attorney that if we vote no on this request, it would probably not be defens'able in court; therefore, I voted yes. But I don't think, as a biologist, this type of design is safe -- no evidence to that effect right now. _.':- After this, I'm going to try to get ordinance changed so as not to allow one system on top of the other. --Eder - I don't like it but will vote in favor ... so much of what's being done is this area is being done by technicians/engineers, not biologists or health persons. Problems on island are existing -.and are going to get worse. Have to find, outside this decision, a better method. --Bill Schumacher, Lot 3 - What policing policy do you have for annual inspections? (Whittaker - inspections to be held on anniversary date of system installation.) BREAK - 8:54 to 9:05 P.M. 9. VBWD, PETITION of I94 OUTLET Managers of VBWD--Allen Dornfeld, Dick Murray and Bob Rosas--were present to respond to Council's concerns. --Dornfeld - didn't ask County Board to grant petition since community was against project,as newspaper points out. We at no time asked them to petition over your heads.. Responsibility gets back to local communities to solve these problems. Watershed can't solve problemsy but can keep them from getting worse. To put blame on any one doesn't solve anything. --Whittaker - the outlet from County 21 to St. Croix is not ggoing to be accessible under this proposed system; there's not going to be a connec- tion from Barton Pit to County 21. (Dornfeld - we have to talk about what cost would be ... 16 cfs capacity from County 21 east could be used if all other connections built. Esitmated cost of $225,000 is same whether earlier 35 cfs or present 16 cfs.) --Whittaker - what kind of protection do we get if we build the connection from the W. Lakeland storage site to Barton Pit without extension to St.Croix? Would that give us pretty good insurance policy for 10-20 years? We're going to have to build that connection soon; why do the extension now until we see if W. Lakeland/Barton Pit connection handles problem? --Dornfeld - in letter of 8/27 we mentioned removing water from the rest area storage site via pump ,as.._ I feel we're going to have water coming faster than seepage capacity into all the channels all the way down to storage site - once the system equalizes, you won't have to do pumping.
