• • Page 2 of 4 a enacting the RAP (if your RP wants reimbursement, that is). At the meeting we had concerns with o/ex's cost, the amount of soil produced, and the additive "X=19". as submitted, the original RAP would not have been approved by the EHD. is that what your folks remember? somewhere in all this I got lost on who was going to do what next, and in what order. Something in my memory and notes lead me to understand that Ray was going to 'revamp'/revise the proposal after getting/checking on some of our concerns noted in the meeting. I can't remember if I was going to write a letter with these concerns noted or just wait for you/Ray to resubmit the revamped RAP. I think my reviewer wasn't clear either...that's why the letter my have been moved aside, and unfortunately, covered up and overlooked. As of right now, I could write a letter pretty much denying the RAP as submitted. I would have to point out excessive o/ex soil amounts and excessive costs and require more tests before the X-19 could be used. I don't remember where we ended our decision on the "X-19" product. any product introduced (in a well or into a UST pit) that could impact/effect gw needs a bench scale test first. I don't remember what Ray and Mark decided on this. do you? And the CUF to date has not approved, let alone 'reimbursed' for this product at all in California. Without the X-19, can/do you plan to continue to support it's use? my notes have "technical justification" listed next to the X-19, as in, GTI to provide. I was under the impression my letter was going deny the original RAP as submitted and ask for a revision. That's what will be going out next week. In the meantime, I think you may want to call Mark Ownes at the CUF and feel the waters now that much has changed with money. Mention 1200 cubic yards and listen for his comment. but the bottom line is: if it is the only remedial action that would work, the costs are 'reasonable', and the plan is approved by the EHD, you should get pre-approval and reimbursed (eventually, like in a year!). see if that is something he feels the same about. I am setting up a review with my PG for this site. I have to go over my notes again before I finalize my letter. let me know if any changes in your approach have changed since the meeting. I will redraft my letter after talks with Nuel and get back to you, if I haven't heard from you, before I mail it out.
