Chair Adams agreed, and said just wastewater management, its water management, <br />along with the contamination and decontamination of the water that occurs along the way. <br />Theres no way that this Commission can give the answers to all of of, we can <br />maybe bubble up some of the issues we are aware of, and unique situations for our districts as <br />a starting pointbe able to put together this huge master plan, but <br />what we would hope to have is an overall management plan, that is trying to determine the <br />sustainable use of water, and so what is the next step? <br /> <br />Commissioner Olson said for him this is kind of déjà vu all over again. We have in the past tried <br />to get something similar to what we are talking about now started. In the past, the largest <br />obstruction has been the State Department of Health. Beyond that, this island is unique in that <br />we have 22 of the 23 described climate zones. The plan that will work for one district, or areas <br />in one district, will probably not be appropriate for all districts. Dry side, wet side, altitude. All <br />those things come into play. He is not s weve got to do it, but it is going to <br />be a challenge. <br /> <br />Chair Adams offered to work offline with Director Mansour on how we might be able to <br />package this so we have more productive meting next time to discuss. <br /> <br /> <br />8. FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS <br />a. Follow up on action items determined today. <br />Chair Adams suggested possibly lining up Mr. George Hayducsko and Ms. Sanne Berrig from the <br />Recycling Program to talk about future education programs that we have had, which have been <br />primarily directed toward how you can reduce, reuse, and recycle. They have been doing bits <br />and pieces in their spare time, so that could be very informative for us. <br /> <br />We will try to see if we can get Rep. Nicole Lowen to present some of the legislative approaches <br />she has been looking at, Chair Adams said. <br /> <br /> <br />b. Other (Commissioners may suggest items they would like placed on the next <br />agenda.) <br />Commissioner Olson mentioned the Commission shipping containers go off the island empty. <br />Chair Adams said she could not confirm this. <br /> <br />9. ANNOUNCEMENTS <br />The next meeting is scheduled for August 25, 2021, online or at a location to be <br />announced. Please contact the Department of Environmental Management or monitor the <br />website for updates. <br /> <br />10. ADJOURNMENT <br /> <br />24 <br /> <br /> <br />
