Well maybe it was more of a heads up than an action item.
Thanks, Don

THIS MORNING I MET WITH CHARLES STOVER AND ANDREW BRADLEY OF
UNINN AND CHARLES CASE THEIR ATTORNEY. UNIMIN WANTS TO BUILD
ANOTHER FELDSPAR/QUARTZ FACILITY IN THE SPRUCE PINE AREA AND INTO
THE NORTH TOE RIVER.
BASICLLY THEY WANT TO SPLIT THE CURRENT ALLOWABLE LOADING OF
THE EXISTING PLANT BETWEEN THE TWO PLANTS AND INSTALL A NEW
TECHNOLOGY TO REDUCE THE FLUORIDE CONCENTRATIONS.
THEY WILL BE SEEKING AN A/C FOR THE EXISTING FACILITY TO INSTALL THE
NEW TECHNOLOGY ASAP, AND THEY WILL BE SUBMITTING THE
APPLICATION FOR THE NEW FACILITY AROUND OCTOBER 1. I SUGGESTED
THAT GET WITH THE REGION AND DAVE GOODRICH TO DISCUSS THE A/C AND
THE TECHNOLOIGY EARLY SO THE A/C CAN BE ISSUES WITH THE NPDES
PERMIT. NATURALLY THEY WOULD NOT WANT THE EXISTING PERMITS
LOADS REDUCED UNTIL THE NEW FACILITY PERMIT IS ISSUED.
WHEN THESE MATERIALS COME IN I WOULD LIKE TO GET IT THROUGH THE
PROCESS IN AN EXPEDICIOUS FASHION. THANKS.
