And it just, there are probably ten other references to things in the area that could have been added in. But in terms of the assessment, they wouldn't ha perhaps new or different. SPRINGER:May I continue? GIFFIN:Yes, you may. SPRINGER:In your introduction of your report that appears with the application, it says that you, or indicates that you conferred with Dr. McCoy -. RECHTMAN:Yes. SPRINGER:Who indicated that the archaeological assessment would constitute an appropriate level of work. RECHTMAN:That is what he said. SPRINGER:Thank you. Madam Chair, I need to collect my thoughts, someone else has questions. GIFFIN:Fine. And you may interrupt at any time. Mr. Togashi. TOGASHI:I have recollected. Anyway, I do want to ask, how would you characterize your aims versus the aims or the overall goal of the State Historic Preservation Division? Are the aims virtually the same or different?

TOGASHI:I guess the objectives of what the State Historic Preservation Division, their objectives or goals, would you say that your, in your profession as an archaeologist, would they be, these, would their aims be synonymous with yours? RECHTMAN:The, I'll try to answer that as best as I can. The State Historic Preservation Division operates under a set of rules, albeit draft rules, that govern them as a regulatory agency. And my work as a consultant is to keep my client in compliance with the rules of regulatory agencies, whether it be Historic Preservation rules, which again are draft, but those are Rules 205, 6(e) law, Chapter 6(e) State law. So my aim is, there's no agenda to my aim. My aim is to have the client, in this case the Applicant for this project, comply with those laws as best as he can. And whether he, you know -. The outcome of that depends on the resource that's there. So I give him guidance within the parameters of the regulations and the laws. 27
