Hello Dan

Thanks

Dear Tiffany,
As far as "promises" go - are you and Nina and Joni aware that Molalla has been and is continuing to use large amounts of money raised via urban renewal bonds to do major improvements, including paving, to roads in the heart of old downtown where the worst of the old sewer pipes were note on the long ago map of I&I? Right now, major work is being done on Molalla Ave on both sides of the downtown intersection. Point being, they are fixing up roads that are going to likely have very bad pipes sealed underneath - and Molalla has some kind of internal rule about not digging up roads for a certain number of years after they have been fixed up and paved. So how is that going to mesh with getting anything done other than finding out again that the pipes are bad? I want this in the record that I told DEQ about this road work in the heart of where the worst underground sewer pipes were flagged in that last map that is in the files, since nothing was ever fixed let alone scoped all the years DEQ let Molalla ignore the need for I&I.
Susan

Hello Susan
We are not ignoring the bypass to Bear Creek that happened December 21 and ended January 1. What I am saying is that the DEQ document to respond to that event requires some action by the city that we discussed and got commitments on yesterday. So I now need to incorporate that into the document.
I am also committing to share that document with you when complete.

Dear Tiffany,
Thanks for a start on this request. But when is DEQ going to address the two wastewater discharge events into Bear Creek. You had told me that it was being looked into to determine what the violations might be if any. What's going on with that - is that the work you said you had taken over or is DEQ just now ignoring those events? Susan

Hi Tiffany,
You indicated that today April 27 was the day you were meeting in Molalla and delivering a document or documents from DEQ. See attached, Bear Creek Recovery seeks information to understand DEQ's ongoing work with Molalla on wastewater mgt. issues.
