Thanks Tiffany. Some of that had already been furnished. I hope you note the newest info request for the most recent info that has passed by your desk regarding Molalla? We are looking forward to the update to understand if any progress has been made on the MAO and what kind of fines are mounting due to the Bear Creek violation discharge and the ongoing failure to meet water quality standards per the permit.

 

Also, did DEQ approve in advance the dye test - did DEQ approve the method of said test before the city began the test?

Hello Susan

I apologize for the delayed response. The following is your original request and my response.

Attention Tiffany Yelton-Bram Requesting:

1. A copy of Molalla's most recent response to DEQ's most recent draft MAO.

Your public records request was filed on 8/30/2017. The version of the MAO from Molalla to DEQ is in the attached email.

2. DEQ's August 14 letter to Molalla: DEQ's response regarding Molalla's most recent MAO proposal.

The city posted our letter and the MAO draft we sent to them on August 14th on their website. The email I sent them is also attached here. Our letter asked for a response by August 28th. They replied with a request to meet in order to share information related to Turbidity and their plan to have a consultant do an immediate assessment of the current treatment plant’s capacity. DEQ agreed to hearing the new information about current status of the plant prior to exchanging another set of draft of MAOs. Our meeting with Molalla will be

3. All notes taken and any reports filed by Nina DeConcini, Tiffany Yelton-Bram and Jeff Bachman generated by the July 25 meeting between DEQ and Molalla. Also please provide a copy of any agenda connected to said meeting if such an agenda was used at the July 25 meeting.

There was no formal agenda for the July 25th meeting at Ring Bender. The purpose was to have them walk through the draft MAO that they proposed and that is documented in the first email attached to this email. Nina did not take notes during the meeting and neither did Jeff Bachman. David Cole and I did and our notes are attached.
