Hi Christie,
Sorry you didn't receive my comments. My files indicate I commented on these back
in April, so they somehow must have ended up in the black hole between here and
Raleigh. Shellfish Sanitation had no comments on either of the permits provided
the facilities are operated and maintained properly. Thanks! Gina
