And actually, I <br />agree with you on part of that, you know, and I had tha t thought <br />really that [unintelligible] as possible. <br />We should probably be talking about using some of that and <br />look at maybe similar studies like we have in [unintelligible] <br />County, look at the impacts of the extraction of the water from <br />the [unintelligi ble] and the impact that could have on wells. <br />There's both -- there is studies being done and we should continue <br />to look at things like that. I don't disagree. <br />And I don't know that we have enough money to deal with <br />cleaning up all the mines. That would b e a worthy thing to do, <br />and I don't know whether to ask for federal funding. You could <br />probably help me with that, but -- . <br />Ms. Kassen: -- <br />Not much. <br />Senator Isgar: <br />You know, that might be similar to taking <br />this money and try to fix our transportation probl ems with it. <br />You know, it won't get us there. <br />- 10 - <br /> <br />
