MAY 19 '95 06:2WM CLEARWATER GROLP r•�� t Ito, CLEARWATER scheduled for Friday and the pilot testing slated to begin on Monday would be able to proceed following data review and discussion. I informed you that the vendor. from whom we had arranged the IC engine rental (a week long rental to begin Monday) had indicated to me that after Monday, May 22 scheduling of equipment for our test would be difficult, and would likely have to wait several weeks. In accordance with your request for additional data, I prepared a letter Tuesday afternoon and evening that contained the Wormat;ion you had requested, and faxed it early on Wednesday morning. I phoned you on Wednesday to follow up, but was only able to leave a voice mail message, as you were not available. I called several times again on Thursday, but again was only able to leave voice mail messages. I indicated in nay messages the need to touch base regarding the planned well development, as I would need to cancel the subcontractor if this was an endeavor that you did not feel was appropriate or necessary. On my last call to your office I was connected with. Dianne IL nson. I explanted the situation at hand to Ms. Hinson, and she indicated that'it would be acceptable to move forward with well development. She also stated that such short notice was not standard, acceptable County practice. I indicated my awareness of County requirements, and my appreciation for her assistance in this exception. I left you .a voice mail message early this morning, prior to my departure to a mewing that was to last into the aftemoon, Due to the timing of the delivery of the various pieces of equipment that were to be used during the upcoming test, I felt that it was important to make contact with you and discuss technical and scheduling issues. I 'also summarized the content of my Thursday discussion with Dianne. I Asked that if you had any concerns regarding the course the project was taking, you leave me a message in my voice mail at your convenience and I would attend to whatever issues you addressed. On my return at 2PM I had no message. As the afternoon was drawing to a close I called your direct line -and the operator in an attempt to reach you. You telephoned at 4;25, shortly before F had indicated I needed to leave for the day. You suggested that the irdorination that I had forwarded on Wednesday morning was insufficient, and asked me to sweet with you, Ms. Hinson and additional PHS/EHD staff on Monday at 2PM. I asked and you,confirmed that it would be unwise to proceed with any testing prior to our' meeting, When queried, you did not indicate what aspect of my Wednesday letter you found to be inadequate. You stated that you would rather discuss details.at the meeting. Please note that I.was surprised at your tone and the abrupt termination of our conversation.
