Project Manager for Venice station. Offsite wells 

could be impacted by ash ponds, but likely not the 

source of arsenic. Elevated but rarely exceeding 

boron is attributable to ponds. Industrial area - 

including wood treating plant. Most contamination to 

south, including right on property line. 

Regional Office 815-774-7898 Dave Hardke 10/22/2010 11:30

His understanding about the NOV is that it was just 

a draft, not ever sent, but came up in FOIA request 

by the env groups.
