r • III IIIIIIIIIIIII III <br /> Collegiate Dictionary 1981. ) If this language does nuu iii : 999 <br /> potential flood impacts, I don't know what language would. <br /> At the July 23 MLRB hearing, the Board seemed confused about <br /> the scope of its authority in this area, and requested legal <br /> advice. It was unclear to me whether the Board felt the <br /> "hydrologic balance" language did not include flood control, or <br /> whether the Board believed that it was preempted, so to speak, by <br /> other authorities, such as FEMA's or CWCB's. From the legal <br /> standpoint preemption should never be assumed, but specifically <br /> researched with respect to each competing statutory authority. <br /> It could be, for example, that FEMA has certain flood mapping and <br /> flood insurance responsibilities which do not preempt DMG's/MLRB's <br /> authority in this area. The County may be looking into this <br /> issue as well, but, as the TR flood issues are now before the DMG <br /> staff, legal advice to you at this point seems necessary. <br /> If you need to communicate with the County at any time <br /> during my absence between now and August 18, please contact Curt <br /> Parker at the Transportation Department (441-3900) , or (on or <br /> after August 11) Larry Hoyt of the County Attorney's Office (441- <br /> 3435) . I would also appreciate knowing what the DMG's <br /> anticipated timeline is on making a decision on the TR <br /> application, once you know it. <br /> Thank you for your continuing attention to these matters. <br /> Since yours, <br /> B(rb�araT'.
