Hi Bill,
The Sharp site is a not available, there is a conflict of interest with the owner and typically comes with request the city cannot apply with. I will be chatting with Jon this afternoon to answer the questions you have below and a few more that came up in our conference call yesterday.

Subject: questions for Molalla biosolids proposal
Hi Jennifer,
I’m working on a proposal to help the City get new sites authorized for land application of the biosolids. But it would help to get a few things clarified first (if possible):
· Fizer site
o This site is approximately 200 acres and currently authorized to the City of Canby.
o Can you please scan and email an aerial map of the site to me?
o Why does Canby no longer want it? It can be difficult to find 200 acre sites so I am wondering why Canby no longer needs it (maybe they have had neighbor problems in the past).
· Jorgenson site
o Located adjacent to the wwtp.
o Can you find out if the old outfall does in fact go through this site?
o If it does, does the City still want to apply biosolids there? Setbacks could be placed around the discharge pipe (just like any other sensitive site feature).
· Grant Sharp
o This was another potential site mentioned today. Should it be included in the proposal from BC?
o If so, please scan and email an aerial picture of the site to me.
o What crops are grown?
· Other
o Are there any other sites that the City wants to authorize, or explore further for the possibility of authorizing?
o Also, please advise if the attached BSMP is the most updated version that was approved by DEQ. My understanding is that it is but mention was made today about a newer version being updated. If there is a more updated version, please scan and email a copy to me.
o Also, I did locate a copy of the Facilities Plan on our server so I don’t believe there is a need to look for that (unless Greg Humm advises otherwise).
Thanks and let me know if you have any questions.
Bill
