The paragraph quoted above is standard language used to allow initial construction of a project to proceed on the condition that the applicant will comply with all waste discharge requirements. This statement also provides notice to the applicant that approval of the issuance of construction permits does not constitute approval of the proposed wastewater disposal method. e. Can you provide details of the above-mentioned conversation between Mike Huggins and Wendy Wyels? The details of this conversation are contained in the second to the last paragraph on Page 2 of the April 30`h letter to you from the EHD," 2. You ask who in the EHD will be involved with or influence decisions affecting the construction and operation of your facility.

The following issues relate to the letter to you from the EHD dated April 30, 2003: a. In Point#3 Mr. Huggins requires a Flowmeter on the ouy7ow of our septic system pumps. We request that this meter be omitted. We will have two water services to our property. The existing water supply will supply the existing building and irrigation system. The new water main will supply only the new manufacturing building. We will already be supplying a water meter for water into the building. The flow of water into the septic system will be easily calculated by subtracting the water used in ourproduct as an ingredient(from our production records)from the County water meeting[sic]readings. We have concerns about the additional expense of the meter and of its reliability in such an application. As stated in the Nitrate Loading Study, Soil Suitability Study and Septic System Design report submitted by Chesney Consulting, the volume of wastewater discharged is critical to proper function of the disposal system.Using the calculation method you propose would grossly overstate the actual amount of water discharged to the septic system, since irrigation and outside water usage would be included in the total metered y e In addition flow meters with only the portion ingredients deducted.used as in , amount po $ are commonly used in industry and are readily designed for wastewater applications y gn Pp available. b. In point#4 Mr. Huggins states we will be on a yearly septic permit instead of a one-time fee. i3 See Attachment 7: EHD letter of April 30,2003. i
