The limitation here is a monthly average limit, not a daily maximum. Back in February of 2008, or about that time, this particular topic was discussed at some length during our meeting with you, me, Kim Colson, David Goodrich, Jim Barber and Bill Stafford. At that time, we all agreed that the limiting measure was la monthly average of the daily flows measured in gallons. In our discussions withotherORCs and folks in your office, it has been confirmed that the most predominantly accepted and approved method to measure effluent limits across the state and the industry is the monthly average. So, it is appropriatelthat the Bay Tree Utilities Company system serving Bay Tree Lakes continues to be permitted and monitored this way. Please feel free to contact us to the extent you would like to discuss further. Thank you.
