Parker Land Voluntary Cleanup: Mark Walker presented the

office for any who wish to review it. This
plan will be put into action on September 17-21, 2001.
TMDL: Karen
Hamilton presented an overview of the TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load). Andrew Ross presented more specific information on
the TMDL’s for the Willow Creek and Rio Grande area.
Handouts from this discussion are available in the WCRC office.
Per this information the committee will work on goals and
objectives for this process. There will be more discussion next month.
Minutes: JB made the motion to approve the minutes as
corrected and Eric Sandvik seconded. Motion
passed.
TAC meeting: The
committee decided that they should spend more time discussing the tracer studies. The committee would like Homestake to be more
involved in these discussions. The point
would be to establish goals to be sure that everything is included in the initial study so
there are no regrets at a later date.
Solomon Wetlands: project impact has agreed to give
$1200 towards the assessment and recommendations for putting the wetlands back into
operations. Projected total expense will be
about $5,000.
Much discussion ensued about the Bulldog pile. The committee discussed possible future remedies
on the pile in the direction of getting Homestake more involved.
Kathleen Reilly - Biological Evaluation is what is
holding up the survey.
