    The Board

    City~s
    progress on its facilities plan work.

    the
    Board
    agrees with the Agency that the City would be well advised to
    submit its ~sewer rehabilitation plan”

    for the reasons given by the Agency.

    generalized, through careful, estimates, the Board thoroughly
    agrees with all
    of the arguments given by the Agency in the
    first
    full paragraph,
