Heidi,
I appreciate the chance to speak with the working group today. Credit to you and your team for your interest in the
project. As requested, please find my presentation attached.
I do hope the information is helpful and would also like to reiterate that my team has seen no data suggesting this site is
impacting the Great Salt Lake. I also believe the cleanup will actually provide more protections overall, as the waste in
the new repository will be capped with a more up to date system as outlined in the cleanup plan. On a larger scale, the
VCP applicants are in the process of off-site sampling and I anticipate the impacts will be defined as I noted on the call.
Arsenic is ubiquitous and not necessarily all related to the site. The additional information gathered will be used to help
develop a remedy and management strategy for areas outside the current phase I work.
Regards,
Bill

Good evening,
It was great having you and Gary meet with us today, Bill. Thank you so much for your time and important work. Given
that 7 years is a significant span of time, as remediation/progress continues, if there are things that “come up” in that
process, we’d like to check back in with you and Gary about those findings. In the meantime, do take care and thanks for
all you do.
WE GO!
In saline and solidarity,
