DON'T MISS minute 36 - when Dave Leland with the state's Drinking Water Program indicates that his office has jurisdiction over the EPA LT2 issue, and that granting a deadline extension is within his authority but they'd need to hear from PWB first.

DON'T MISS minute 6:29 - when Dr. Gary Oxman with Multnomah County Health Department indicates that they don't expect to see any reduction in disease incidence if/when the reservoirs are buried, because they aren't seeing any disease incidence now (and therefore there is nothing to reduce).
