OONCURRflJG OPIWION (by J. D.

Dumelle)~

My reason fec concurring is that the alternative of using

~i

portable power source (i.e. skid—mounted,

etc.)

seems not to

have

been examined.

Since the wet well and interceptor sewer have a one hour

~iolding capacity, the system could have been pumped down,

d.sconnected for up to an hour from the portable power supply

while the new hookup occurred and then restarted with no by-

passing at all tD

the

Mississippi River.

The environmental effect of the instant provisional variance

qrant is admittedly minimal. But an examination of the portable

power supply alternative might have made that effect non-existent.

Respectfully submitted,
