into the sanitary sower system. Per instruction by the Council, this ordinance has been
amended. It bars dumping into manholes after the 8th of Mnrch and permits dumping into an
interim storage tank. The storage tank will either he the tank truck we use now to haul
sludge to the pit that we have established or, if we can locate another steel tank which we
can effectively erect, we will use that. You will note that the languagra bars everyone except
City residents not within servicing distance of the sanitary sewer system. IF+7a believe we can
install such a system on a temporary basis without too much trouble. R will not, of course,
;. be the type of design system that we would like to have. nn approval of this ordinance, we
.,� will develop specific rules and regulations for the handling of this and there will be some
complications as to determining who can properly use the system and how to control it. i
believe this ordinance will meet the requirements of the Council.

Of the inability to determine the legality of what funds we can use. As soon as we have the

18. Borough Raseline Study
In your packet is the Borough baseline study for the City of Kenai. The study
appears to be fairly well done. The maps accompanying it are regretably inadequate and
do not provide the data that the City has needed for some time, i.e. location of the new
bridge and the realignment of the Spur Highway.
17. Legislative Budget Committee
Apparently the legislative budget committee was unable to meet in nemember to
approve allocation of Coastal Energy Impact funds. Action on that will apparently be delayed
until the Legislature reconvenes in January. Hopefully, we will receive funds for our

We have not received an answer from FDA relative to use of surplus funds. As

" of our projects.

bluff erosion problem. I believe the correspondence is self-explanatory.

alterations to the terminal cafe and bar. This is a follow-up to my letter of November 1,
which was drafted by the Attorney and verbal requests to Ken flutters and diary pitel.
Additonally, I have requested Mr. Fitel to provide the City with information which we can
forward to the Airport Consultants relative to ACT's desire to lease land between the
Terminal and the Tower. He was asked to provide this information in writing so that
it could be forwarded to the Consultants. As of this date, we have reeeived nothing in
