Summary

County staff said engineers hired by the county reviewed Ameren’s initial compensatory-site drawings and found that the compensatory area may be insufficient and lacked an outlet for a pond; staff expect a response to Ameren and said the county has received an initial attorney bill on the matter.

Committee members said county-hired engineers have reviewed Ameren’s initial drawings for a compensatory site and raised concerns that the compensatory area may be insufficient for the amount of soil moved and that the pond currently proposed showed no outlet. The engineers are preparing comments to send to Ameren through the county attorney. Committee members said they expect a response to be available later in the week and noted the county has received its first legal invoice on the matter; staff will track total attorney costs for possible recovery from Ameren if appropriate.
