<br /> 8 and you're going to just keep plugging and plugging and 8 I think -- I think the staff has looked
<br /> 9 plugging. 9 at the site long enough, and they discussed it with --
<br /> 10 And I just -- I just don't feel that Iio with Snowcap, and-- and I think, you know, I feel very
<br /> 11 there's been evidence proved that that will -- the i11 canfortable with what they presented, you know, the
<br /> 12 plugging that they have proposed on the vent will i12 evidence, and, you know, I could be wrong.
<br /> 13 suffice for the whole -- the whole area. I think we're 13 You know, we all could be wrong, but I
<br /> 14 going to find more holes in the area. 14 feel canfortable about what they did, and I agree with

<br /> 16 we're looking at. I rrean, we're looking at whether 16 one. So, you know, I accept that.
<br /> 17 it's going to -- I mean, I understand that your issues 17 MR. RANDALL: Yeah. Maybe it's just
<br /> 18 are with the testing procedures and that they haven't 18 easier to understand.
<br /> 19 identified-- having gone across and maybe identified 19 MR. SINGLETARY: Is there any further
<br /> 20 more issues, but let me ask you a question. 20 discussion? Anybody want to make a motion?
<br /> 21 If the proposed plan -- if you're just 21 MS. VAN NOORD: I move that the Board
<br /> 22 looking at the one area that they did identify -- 22 make the final decision to approve the TR-69
<br /> 23 W. UITERBACK-NOPMANN: Right. 23 application.
<br /> 24 W. VAN NOORD: -- do you believe that 24 MR. SINGLETARY: Second?
<br /> 25 that proposed plan is adequate to correct that one area 125 MR. RANDALL: Did you second, or are you
<br /> 322 324
<br /> i that we're addressing? 1 asking for a second?
<br /> 2 MS. UTPERBACK-NORMANN: It will plug the 2 MS. VAN NOORD: He's asking for a
<br /> 3 vent, but I don't think it will keep -- it will prove 3 second.
<br /> 4 in the end to keep other openings from caning up when 4 MR. SINGLETARY: I'm asking for a

<br /> 7 other openings that could care up, because that isn't 7 MR. SINGLETARY: It's been moved and
<br /> 8 solid ground under there. 8 seconded. All those in favor.
<br /> 9 MR. RANDALL: I'll just say, for m? this 9 (All Board members except
<br /> to question is a little bit easier than the first one; 10 Board Member Utterback-Noimm were in favor of the
<br /> 11 that if the testing is adequate, then the plan to plug 11 motion.)
<br /> 12 it seems to be a little bit sirrpler mechanics and 12 MR. SINGLETARY: All those opposed.
<br /> 13 engineering to excavate, fill, carpact, fill, Impact, 13 MS. UrFffMCK-NORMANN: Aye.
<br /> 14 fill, carpact, fill. 14 MR. SINGLETARY: Passes three to one.
<br /> 15 And I guess, Jill, like you, you know, I 15 MS. VAN NOORD: Thanks, everyone.
