We are aware that Mr. Harry Bailey has met with Robbie Bullock, Victoria Herdt, and Scott regarding this
situation with the chlorides. Our desire is to get this corrected as soon as possible. We are currently
awaiting approval of the permit to put the backwash water into our wastewater collection system.

protecting water and groundwater resources by maintaining compliance with all State and Federal rules
