SUPPLEMENTAL STATEMENT

(by Mr.

Dumelle):

While

I voted for the grant of this variance

I would have done

so without conditioning the connection of the housing project to

the completion of the interceptor sewer and

to the operation of the

regional sewage treatment plant.

The Federal

loan and mortgage insurance may be

in

jeopardy

because of this condition.

If this proves

to be

so, then

I would

hope that the Petitioners would promptly ask for a variance from

this condition of the Board Order.

Safe and sanitary housing for

low income persons

is 3lso an environmental necessity.

And the

degradation of the Rock River,

if any, from the Silvis discharges

is not specified but only to be ineerred from the effluent data.
