We appreciate that an improved appearance <br />of the area might accompany removal of the abandoned sewage ponds, but the applicant's <br />proposal includes much more than this alone. <br />We strongly urge you to deny this application until the applicant has thoroughly evaluated <br />and shown to be negligible the: <br />1) Increased risks of river channel movement to the west during severe flood <br />runoffs introduced by removal of the existing large rock terrace, <br />2) Increased risks introduced by the location and size of the proposed new lake, <br />3) Increased risks associated with long term stability and failure possibility of <br />proposed river bank hydrological controls, and <br />4) Substantial and avoidable consequences of river channel movement, both <br />locally and down-river, to wetlands, homes, and property. <br />Thank you for your consideration. <br />Sinc~ejrelyl, ''' <br />Charles A.
