Subject:Requested Approval Action of the
:SCAG :208 Milestone Report
The Sanitation Districts have reviewed the 208 Milestone Report
and finds that it can only receive and file the Report as an
editorial summary of the Phase I 208 work.
In comparing the Task Elements submitted to SCAG from the County
of Orange and Newport Irvine Waste-Management Agency (NIWA)with
the Milestone Report it becomes very apparent that much of the
context is lost by summarization.Recommendations expressed in
the TaskElements that appeared to be fairly sound lost much of
their impact and came across as very subjective because of sum
marization in the Report.It becomes even more clear in our
minds that when these Task Elements are summarized by individuals
(however capable)who are not intimately familiar with the local
problems or engineering aspects thereof,the interpretation and
summarization is lost.
It should also be noted that the Sanitation Districts,as a
political body,cannot,in due conscience,endorse any Report
that does not adequately portray the fiscal impacts upon the
taxpayers.Before the Sanitation Districts can act in a
positive manner it must know the financial consequences of
such action.

It is the recommendation of the Sanitation Districts that the
comments received from the Districts member municipalities be
incorporated into the Report and that the Report receive a
thorough review with respect to its base information,the Task
Elements,and that it be rewritten before incorporation into
the Final 208 Plan.
