Review and adoption of minutes from prior meeting
The minutes were adopted.
Board business: Report of ad hoc Committee on Bylaws
This item was deferred.
Review of 8/6 draft proposed PPG grant agreement from Kathy Seel of Ecology
Concerns were expressed about binding terms "will" and "shall", and the Board approved editing them to "may" in the revised draft we return to Ecology. Other suggestions for editing were also made, and approved by the Board. An electronic copy of the draft grant agreement was to be sought from Ecology, to facilitate editing.
Review of 8/27 draft Ecology-PHSKC SHA grant Scope of Work from Molly Gibbs of Ecology
This item was deferred for discussion at the 9/7 VMICC Arsenic-Lead Remediation Committee meeting.
Development of work plan
This item was deferred.
Process for "Request for Proposals" for contracted activities and Process for selection criteria for contract awards
Due to prolonged discussion of agenda item 4, insufficient time was available for full discussion of the handouts "Draft RFP for IRPPC Technical Consultant" and "Public Notice" [of the RFP], or the proposed timeline. The Board decided that consensus on the wording of the PPG grant agreement, as well as a negotiated agreement between IRPPC and Ecology over the wording, was needed before the RFP could be issued.
Ecology Clean Water Fund grant process
This item was deferred.
Next meeting
Scheduled for 4 October, 7:15pm; location to be determined.
