This proposal involves remov-ingth- e existingfacility and existing septic tanks and replacing them with a lagoon - wetlands sewage treatment system. The lagoon - wetlands system would consist of using the two existing evaporative ponds, constructing a lagoon(s), and wetlands would be fenced. Wetlands development would use native vegetation to provide habitat for several wildlife species. The preliminary engineering design was reviewed by ADEQ; however, final designs must be developed and approved by ADEQ. The Forest Service has completed a biological evaluation with mitigation measures specified for Threatened, Endangered, and Sensitive (TE&S) wildlife species and performed surveys for TE&S plants and cultural resources. Several other alternative wastewater treatment methods were briefly analyzed by the private engineering firm and would be further reviewed during the environmental analysis.

Right now there are only 110 operating power plants in our country and the U. S. has a huge stockpile of uranium, said Shouldis. Shouldis indicated the com- pany will reopen its mines when the market changes and there is hope that will happen. Other countries are going nuclear and world wide the demand is growing. The war in the Gulf did much for the nuclear power industry. People are starting to wonder how long we are going to send young men to die for oil before our country gets smart about nuclear power.
