r. Hawkulie asked Mr. Munksgaard what process he considered to be',the most susceptible to upset, and Mr. Munksgaard answered that different reliability factors were put on the various processes; however, the reliability factor was one of six factors considered. Mr. Hawkulie asked if CDM had looked at the impact of the effluent disposal option on potable water supplies in the county, and Mr. Munksgaard explained that with respect to individual reuse alternatives, separate documents have been prepared for the County dealing with reuse feasibility studies associated with the West,,the old North, and the new Central regions. Those individual studies make recommendations associated with different pieces of land use that could be utilized for reuse. He emphasized that it was a separate study and not part of this Master Plan. r. Hawkulie asked if CDM is aware that many old sand mines are in the proposed western water irrigation area, and Mr. Munksgaard answered that they are aware that there are sand mines all up and down the sand ridge in the central system, if that is what Mr. Hawkulie is referring to. ,Mr. Hawkulie wanted it placed on the record that having these sand mines means that the lower permeability soils have beeniremoved from that area, and therefore, the irrigation area is di',rectly connecting to the shallow, fresh water lens, which they ',believe is the only water source for most of the county. (Chairman Scurlock advised that the County's plan is not based on using the shallow aquifer. Our Master Plan shows that we will continue to use reverse osmosis. However, if Mr. lie is referring to potable water supplies for independent, indi4idual homes, or those from franchised utilities, that may be correct. Mr. Hawkulie thanked the Board for the opportunity of being heard today. AUG 2 b 'i``W '.k 46 BOOK MEI 1J
