[Kzyxtalk] Mendocino Currents

[Cindy Swan]

Kudos to Sherri Quinn 
for her excellent Mendocino Currents program
at 9AM this morning on KZYX!
It was both educational and informative.

Quinn interviewed Glen Colwell, of Friends of Outlet Creek,
and Tom Woodhouse, 3rd District Supervisor,
regarding the “Fast-Tracking” of the Grist Creek Asphalt Plant
. . . and the serious problems Woodhouse’s efforts to avoid a complete
(and objective) EIR of that project has caused.

You can listen to this excellent Public Service program
at your convenience by going to:

Again, thanks Sherri (and Lorraine)
for opening up the dialogue
on this important issue.

The one question that did not get asked
was how the Mendocino County Air Quality District
had the “authority” to issue any permits in April, 2015
for this project —given the fact that the BOS
had rescinded their fast-track permit approval in March, 2015?
==> At that juncture, shouldn’t the project proposal have gone back to
the Planning & Building Department for a complete (and updated)
CEQA analysis and environmental review?

It remains a mystery how Air Quality could issue operation permits
without prior Planning Department review and approval of the entire project, 
and perhaps here is where the solution to the current problem exists. . .
