NANCE: I’m not in a position to judge that. BOWMAN: Okay, thank you. WATANABE: Yes, Mr. Woodward. WOODWARD: Thank you, Mr. Chairman. It would seem to me that the agreement between Stanford Carr and the sewage treatment plant is to supply R-2 water; and then you guys need to figure out the technology to make it work, whether it’s settlement tanks, filtration, what kind of emitters you’re going to use. But it can’t possibly be more expensive than using city water. So I can’t see that this would fail, you know, if you do a little bit of research. And I’m not particularly concerned -. It’s a lot better to put it on a golf course than it is to shoot it down a hole, you know, where it’s definitely going to get into the ocean eventually. So I think I don’t have any problem with any of these conditions. ALAMEDA: Mr. Chair? WATANABE: Yes, Mr. Alameda. ALAMEDA: What’s comforting for me is that there are a lot of checks and balances with this development and there was a lot of collaboration prior to this point. I mean to come to somewhat a consensus on the three potential contested case hearings is really satisfying to me. And I see a lot of revisions, and I see a huge attempt to try and accommodate the different perspectives. So I’m ready to make a motion if there’s no objection to that. WATANABE: Give me a second and let me acknowledge Mr. Iwashita. IWASHITA: Thank you, Mr. Chair. And I’m not objecting too of the Commissioners wanting to go forward. I just wanted to clarify based on what Commissioner Woodward just said and what I think I heard Mr. Lim say, is that there is a, well, maybe clarify. So is it the case that the applicant, Stanford Carr, is obligated to do the filtering of the R-2 before it enters the irrigation system, this subterranean irrigation system? LIM: That is not correct. We don’t know what the system is and that’s why we have to do the commercial and reasonable efforts. IWASHITA: Okay. So, because what I thought I heard Commissioner Woodward say, you know, his impression is that the R-2 treated effluent would be provided to Stanford Carr and that the terms of this condition basically requires Stanford Carr to whatever, do the commercially reasonable filtering and so forth, so that it could be used in -. LIM: We don’t know where that would occur, whether it would be improvements to the existing plant or where; and that’s the whole point. IWASHITA: Okay. Maybe I can ask, I’m sorry, can I have your name again? EXHIBIT C 22
