Therefore, the Hawaii Island Economic <br />Development would like to contract our County of Hawaii, Department of Environmental <br />Management to do this feasibility study. HIEDB would fund this study with a maximum of <br />($100,000) one hundred thousand dollazs from our EPA Grant. Please note that this study must <br />be completed before the end of the granting period which is September 30, 2008. <br />Please advise us of the best way for HIEDB and the County of Hawaii to proceed. <br />Mahalo a nui loa, <br />s~e~~ <br />Skylazk Rossetti <br />Sr. Project Manager <br />Hilo Office: Hawaii Innovation Center at Hilo • 117 Keawe Street, Suite 107 • Hilo, HI 96720-281 1 <br />Ph X808) 935-2180 Fax (808J 935-2187 hiedb@hiedb.org vvww.hiedb.ora <br />Kona Office: Hawaii Energy Gateway Center, Natural Energy Laboratory Hawaii Authority Ph (8081326: 2721 <br />FXHTKTT "A" <br />
