ALAMEDA:Sure. Commissioner Rho? ROE:First, I know I’m not supposed to ask him a question but I will, anyway. How many cars would be in that parking lot? You can only -. COUSIN:Between 150 and 175 cars. ROE:Okay. So in the previous project that we denied, there’d be a 120 parking spaces; and these are cars that have 15,000 to maybe 150,000 miles on them. I’m talking about the previous project in the parking lot; and they’re probably closer to the water than this project. So, in my view, if there’s a requirement for brand new cars in the parking lot to have this filtration, then whenever there’s another project that comes up that needs a Special Management Area, whatever that is called, then we need to consider making that a requirement. I mean, I’m all for the environment and whatever. I’m just saying if you’re making a requirement for this project, the next project that comes up I’ll be sure to bring that up. Because if you look at my garage, you’ll see this mark in the garage for two cars. I know of a condominium on Oahu that asked the owners to clean that up; and if you don’t clean it up, they hire people to clean it up. So, for every parking space that we have, we need to get everybody to clean up their oil spillage, or whatever that’s, I mean, I don’t even know what it’s called. I just wanted to say that. Thank you. ALAMEDA:Sure. And that’s a good, that’s part of the discussion for that second motion. Is there another discussion on the item before we ask for a roll call on the second, the amendment to the original motion. Commissioner Iwashita? IWASHITA:I think that’s a good idea, so I made the motion. ALAMEDA:Okay. Any other discussion for that? GALDONES:It’s just clarification on the motion, if Mr. Iwashita could read the, repeat his motion. ALAMEDA:Sure. Mr. Iwashita? IWASHITA:My motion is, subject to Commissioner Graham’s editing, my motion is to add another condition requiring the installation of a filtration system around the drywells intended to filter petroleum products and sediment in a form subject to review and approval by the Director. ALAMEDA:Is that the motion that you seconded, Commissioner Graham? GRAHAM:Sure it is. ALAMEDA:All right. Commissioner Galdones, is that a clarification enough? GALDONES:Yes. Thank you, Mr. Chair. The difficulty I have with that amendment that’s being introduced is whether that technology does exist at all and whether the Director is EXHIBIT C 13
