<br /> <br />HEAUKULANI: --to no good end. So, I’d be interested in your thoughts about how do we, how <br />do we investigate the impacts of this more recent uncontrolled release, and how do we use that <br />information to better formulate the proposal for—to the extent that a medical study is what we <br />decide to do. <br /> <br />PETRICCI: I appreciate your asking the question in your position, and I agree with you. <br /> <br />HEAUKULANI: That’s partly to give you some more time, too. <br /> <br />PETRICCI: Thank you. Okay, now I get it. So, I think Tom Travis can answer that question <br />better than I can, but like I said, the health committee, when we looked at the issue, and we spent <br />over a year looking at the issues, the study was designed to determine if there were health <br />impacts, and I think that it’s pretty clear that there are, and so I think that we need to go back, <br />and we need to have an independent engineering firm come in and do a study. Goddard & <br />Goddard was an engineering company, and after the blowout, they came, and they did a great <br />study. And they made some really good recommendations if you read the report. The problem <br />was they didn’t get implemented. It just got put on a shelf and everything just went forward as <br />normal. So, I really believe that’s what we need because the only information you have in this <br />situation. You have the polluter, PGV, reporting the pollution. Department of Health made that <br />statement because they called PGV, and PGV told them there was no problem. And that is how <br />it’s always been. <br /> <br />So, we need some kind of outside oversight, an independent investigation. We cannot depend on <br />PGV to investigate themselves, and at this point, that’s all I see. I hope that answers your <br />question. <br /> <br />HEAUKULANI: It helps— <br /> <br />PETRICCI: I’m happy to elaborate if you have anything specific. <br /> <br />HEAUKULANI: You know, I’m just—I’m more concerned with the process, the procedure, <br />you know, and hard and fast, how do we—how do we put that in place. In theory, that makes <br />sense to me, but— <br /> <br />PETRICCI: I think Tom Travis can answer that question. He’ll be coming up next, yeah, I <br />think. He’s an engineer. <br /> <br />HEAUKULANI: Thank you. <br /> <br />PETRICCI: Thank you very much. <br /> <br />MIYASATO: Could I have Mike Hale, Tom Travis, Laura Travis, and Dave Kiser [sic] [Kisor]? <br /> <br />KISOR: Kisor. <br /> <br />14 <br />EXHIBIT F <br /> <br /> <br />
