The Commission commented it seemed PND was not seeking out existing studies and, to date, they had not shown anything to indicate further analyses was being done. Kornelis stated the City Manager sent information to the Department of Government Coordination (DGC). The DGC will set a date to meet with PND and a facilitator at which time she will get further definition and clarification on what the agencies require. Several Commissioners commented the concerns outlined in the PND report seemed to apply only to the river and not the tidal flats and a separation needs to be made between the river and the project. Discussion -- Kenai River Watershed Water Quality Kornelis reported, a presentation was given at the last City Council meeting regarding the water quality for the Beaver Creek area. Kornelis and the Commission spoke briefly regarding a peak in fecal coliforms last April, and a peak in aromatic hydrocarbons in July. The Commission discussed possible reasons for the coliform peak (storm sewers, settling pond, etc.). Another study, with City of Kenai participation, will be done this upcoming spring.
