Summary

The advisory committee corrected an item in the meeting handout about the design submission, agreed to continued coordination with the DEC (monthly meetings), and adjourned at 2:28 p.m. on a motion by Laurie Tautel, seconded by Barry J. Cheney.

Chairman Tuohy noted that Ms. Bianconi, who planned to present detailed project history, was absent and will provide additional detail at the next meeting. Tuohy said the committee originally met twice monthly after its formation in March 2019, then moved to monthly meetings as topics matured, and that "Everything they have done has been hand in hand with the DEC." He also said the committee is exploring various grant opportunities to support the project.

Committee staff corrected a handout error about where 75% design documentation had been submitted; Erik Denega said the submission went to his office, not the DEC, and that staff expect readiness to submit to the DEC by September. Barry J. Cheney asked about DEC timing, and Tuohy said the DEC contact recommended monthly meetings to stay on top of reviews. On a motion by Laurie Tautel, seconded by Barry J. Cheney, the meeting adjourned at 2:28 p.m.
