E.P.A./PCB Dredging Project:
Odland - Charles Kane wrote a letter to the EPA. With respect to our support for the dredging. He will forward a copy to the WCC Secretary for the File.
Duck Pond:
Odland - Samples have been sent to the County for analysis. They are waiting for spring to start dredging. We need to know if the soil will be suitable for landfill or topsoil. We do not need a complete analysis.
Kaplan's Pond/Temple Israel:
Odland - Kaplan's Pond has been designated as a protected area. We need to insist on inspecting to find out where the Temple's septic system is located and if it is draining into Kaplan's Pond. The leaching fields are near wetlands. We need to conduct an inspection in the spring to check surface run-off.
The Commission agreed to schedule an inspection sometime in the spring of this year.
Odland - We need to find out who services the septic and see if there is a topographical map available. We need to write a letter to the County requesting engineering documentation that the septic is not draining into the wetlands.
Kane - Suggested the Temple design some sort of a pumping station, which could service others in the area as well.
The Board agreed to schedule a site visit sometime in March or April of this year.
Odland - We will need representatives from the Temple to accompany us (WCC) on the site visit. We also need to contact the Board of Health and have the information requested prior to our site visit at the Temple.
Odland - Requested the WCC Secretary to contact Kary Ioannou, Village Engineer and Temple Israel representatives to schedule a site visit in March or April.
Discussions Closed.
Respectfully submitted,
Janice Fuentes
WCC Secretary
