Speaker 46 – Steven Merrill, Governing Board Member<br />

Comment 46-a: Comment Summary – Traffic Methodology – use existing numbers.<br />

Please refer to Master Response 2.<br />

Comment 46-b: Comment Summary – Water quality baseline – should be condition with current<br />

water quality requirements in place – not what is there now.<br />

The water quality analysis presents existing conditions and proposed conditions as<br />

compared to current State and regional water quality standards. Please refer to<br />

Master Response 1 and Appendix AB of the <strong>FEIS</strong> for a review of the supplemental<br />

water quality analysis. The analysis does not change the conclusions concerning<br />

level of impact.<br />

Comment 46-c: Comment Summary – What does it mean to treat 100 year vs. 20 year storm event?<br />

What is this worth?<br />

Please see Master Response 1 and Appendix AB of the <strong>FEIS</strong>.<br />

Comment 46-d: Comment Summary – ARUP study – sounds like the comparison was not apples to<br />

apples.<br />

This is not a comment on the content or adequacy of the DEIS. This information is<br />

passed on to the Project proponent and decision maker(s) for consideration. No<br />

further response to this comment in relation to the DEIS is warranted.<br />

Comment 46-e: Comment Summary – Traffic – questionable assumptions re: generation of traffic for<br />

a project on the north shore. Not analogous to other resort areas with other<br />

recreation amenities in place. Boulder Bay will not be a destination resort like the<br />

Hyatt.<br />

Please refer to Master Responses 2, 3 and 4 concerning the supplemental traffic<br />

analysis. The latter comment expresses an opinion. The comment is not relevant to<br />

the content or adequacy of the environmental analysis and documentation in the<br />

DEIS. No response is necessary.<br />

Comment 46-f: Comment Summary – Thinks that the analysis can’t be linked to the developer<br />

because he can sell the project.<br />

This is not a comment on the content or adequacy of the DEIS. This information is<br />

passed on to the Project proponent and decision maker(s) for consideration. No<br />

further response to this comment in relation to the DEIS is warranted.<br />

Speaker 47 – Casey Beyer, Governing Board Member<br />

Comment 47-a: Comment Summary – Wants to know more about organizations that are commenting<br />

on these projects. Who do they represent?<br />

A list of each person or agency that commented on the project is provided in Section<br />

8.4 above.<br />
