WEBVTT

00:02.240 --> 00:04.462
All right , good evening everybody . My

00:04.462 --> 00:06.629
name is Mr Mercado and I'm with the 27

00:06.629 --> 00:08.796
special operations wing public affairs

00:08.796 --> 00:11.900
team on the call with this tonight are

00:11.910 --> 00:14.770
all of those that are both uh community

00:14.780 --> 00:17.840
individuals and uh those from the

00:17.850 --> 00:20.290
military base here at Cannon . And we

00:20.290 --> 00:22.401
are welcome to have you were happy to

00:22.401 --> 00:24.650
have you join us in our quarterly P

00:24.650 --> 00:28.230
four P . Fola call update . So before

00:28.230 --> 00:30.290
we get started I'd like to make a

00:30.290 --> 00:32.610
couple of introductions . So first and

00:32.610 --> 00:35.010
foremost I would like to introduce

00:35.020 --> 00:36.798
everyone on the call to our new

00:36.798 --> 00:39.710
commander . Colonel Colonel Taylor has

00:39.710 --> 00:42.310
been with us since this summer , um

00:42.320 --> 00:44.770
taking the helm run around the end of

00:44.770 --> 00:46.992
june or early july , we're very excited

00:46.992 --> 00:48.992
to have him here at Cannon and we'd

00:48.992 --> 00:51.159
like to introduce you to him before we

00:51.159 --> 00:53.381
get started . So Colonel Taylor , would

00:53.381 --> 00:56.120
you like to say a few words ? Thanks Mr

00:56.120 --> 00:58.009
I appreciate it . Hey , uh really

00:58.009 --> 01:00.176
quickly just want to welcome everybody

01:00.176 --> 01:02.231
to the call . Mayor Morris , Good to

01:02.231 --> 01:04.398
see you uh all the community members ,

01:04.398 --> 01:06.900
representatives from the local and

01:06.910 --> 01:09.250
national government uh and our fellow

01:09.250 --> 01:11.550
Air Force partners here , welcome to

01:11.550 --> 01:13.272
you all just by way of cricket

01:13.340 --> 01:15.820
reduction as misty said , uh just

01:15.820 --> 01:18.100
stepped into the 27 South Command City

01:18.110 --> 01:21.170
at the end of july and since then have

01:21.170 --> 01:23.320
been getting familiar acquainted

01:23.330 --> 01:26.260
educated on the current environmental

01:26.260 --> 01:29.000
PFS situation along with our mitigation

01:29.000 --> 01:31.222
efforts on the U . S . Air Force side .

01:31.222 --> 01:33.333
I think the big thing for me that I'd

01:33.333 --> 01:35.570
like to relay with that is just the

01:35.580 --> 01:38.620
renewed or continued commitment to the

01:38.620 --> 01:41.080
community . We are absolutely committed

01:41.080 --> 01:43.136
partners in this effort to level the

01:43.136 --> 01:45.790
information and to be responsive . You

01:45.790 --> 01:48.560
know , we are with approximately 7800

01:48.560 --> 01:50.790
employees here on base in another over

01:50.800 --> 01:53.240
14,000 affiliated with the base . We

01:53.240 --> 01:55.407
are absolutely a part of the community

01:55.407 --> 01:57.184
here . So we , we have a vested

01:57.184 --> 01:59.640
interest to and in ensuring that this ,

01:59.640 --> 02:02.420
this situation is resolved on a

02:02.420 --> 02:04.642
personal note . My family lives here on

02:04.642 --> 02:06.698
the installation as well as over 500

02:06.698 --> 02:08.809
military families . And so we're also

02:08.809 --> 02:10.809
interested in ensuring that we have

02:10.809 --> 02:13.270
clean consumable water for the health

02:13.270 --> 02:15.270
and the well being of everyone . So

02:15.540 --> 02:17.762
moving forward again , you know , we're

02:17.762 --> 02:19.596
just committed to continuing our

02:19.596 --> 02:21.818
quarterly updates here and to make sure

02:21.818 --> 02:23.929
everyone has access to the most up to

02:23.929 --> 02:26.096
date in current information possible .

02:26.096 --> 02:28.610
So with that I'll turn it over to mayor

02:28.610 --> 02:30.832
Morris for any opening comments that he

02:30.832 --> 02:31.760
has . Thank you

02:34.640 --> 02:36.370
appreciate that Colonel Taylor

02:37.040 --> 02:39.207
greetings to you and and the team that

02:39.207 --> 02:41.429
Cannon , our friends and neighbors that

02:41.429 --> 02:43.540
can appreciate that . And also closed

02:43.540 --> 02:45.707
everyone who's joined the meeting this

02:45.707 --> 02:47.596
evening from the port Alice or or

02:47.596 --> 02:51.100
closed communities and uh , echo the

02:51.110 --> 02:53.110
sentiments uh , that you're talking

02:53.110 --> 02:55.054
about Colonel taylor when you talk

02:55.054 --> 02:56.943
about the partnership between the

02:56.943 --> 02:58.888
community and can in fact , I just

02:58.888 --> 03:01.010
consider us friends and neighbors

03:01.020 --> 03:03.770
considered canon , uh , mortality close

03:03.770 --> 03:07.060
to be uh , one community . And in fact ,

03:07.060 --> 03:09.060
and so , uh , you know , appreciate

03:09.060 --> 03:11.171
that spirit in which you bring this .

03:11.171 --> 03:13.393
Uh thanks for for the update . I'd like

03:13.393 --> 03:15.227
to think those that are going to

03:15.227 --> 03:17.449
present in advance for your update this

03:17.449 --> 03:20.500
evening . Uh as you can imagine as

03:20.500 --> 03:22.500
mayor and speaking on behalf of the

03:22.500 --> 03:24.750
citizens of Clovis , we are we are

03:24.750 --> 03:27.810
growing more and more anxious to hear

03:27.820 --> 03:31.140
you know meaningful uh solid

03:31.140 --> 03:33.620
information in these updates . And so I

03:33.620 --> 03:36.500
think in advance for that and we look

03:36.500 --> 03:39.060
forward to hearing more detail about

03:39.060 --> 03:42.800
the plan for mitigation um as well

03:42.800 --> 03:44.800
as uh you know , the progress being

03:44.800 --> 03:46.800
made against that plan . So again ,

03:46.800 --> 03:49.022
thanks in advance to the presenters for

03:49.022 --> 03:51.133
the update and thank you for the time

03:51.133 --> 03:50.660
this evening .

03:58.440 --> 04:00.607
Okay , so just a couple of things real

04:00.607 --> 04:02.960
quick so that everybody is familiar

04:02.960 --> 04:04.910
with how this , how we're going to

04:04.910 --> 04:07.370
facilitate tonight's meeting . Um we

04:07.370 --> 04:09.530
have chris kirky that's with us from

04:09.530 --> 04:12.060
the Air Force civil engineering . Uh he

04:12.060 --> 04:14.227
is going to be the one who is going to

04:14.227 --> 04:16.393
host the information on the slide deck

04:16.393 --> 04:18.504
that you have in front of you . Now ,

04:18.504 --> 04:20.616
if you have questions we ask that you

04:20.616 --> 04:22.671
hold your questions until the end of

04:22.671 --> 04:24.727
the call . You may also use the chat

04:24.727 --> 04:26.782
feature that's on zoom to be able to

04:26.782 --> 04:28.838
input any questions that you have or

04:28.838 --> 04:31.004
that you want asked . So the questions

04:31.004 --> 04:33.116
that you do put in the chat call , we

04:33.116 --> 04:35.282
will be asking of chris allowed at the

04:35.282 --> 04:37.060
end of his presentation so that

04:37.060 --> 04:39.171
everybody gets an opportunity to hear

04:39.171 --> 04:41.338
both the question and the answer . The

04:41.338 --> 04:43.504
only other thing that we ask you is to

04:43.504 --> 04:45.727
please make sure you keep your phone on

04:45.727 --> 04:45.340
mute so that we're not disturbed

04:45.350 --> 04:47.180
background noises and hold your

04:47.180 --> 04:49.347
questions till the end of the call and

04:49.347 --> 04:51.291
we look forward to the update . So

04:51.291 --> 04:53.402
chris I'm gonna turn it over to you .

04:56.240 --> 04:57.460
Thank you misty .

05:01.140 --> 05:03.650
Oh come on .

05:05.540 --> 05:09.460
Okay so again my name is Christopher

05:09.460 --> 05:11.640
Gherkin . Many of you may know me but

05:11.640 --> 05:13.862
for those that you don't and are new to

05:13.862 --> 05:16.084
this meeting , I'm the remedial project

05:16.084 --> 05:18.196
manager here at Cannon Air Force Base

05:18.196 --> 05:20.418
responsible for the restoration program

05:20.418 --> 05:22.840
and heading up the project management

05:22.840 --> 05:26.210
for RP fast investigation . So with

05:26.210 --> 05:29.000
that we'll get into going over our

05:29.000 --> 05:32.050
slides today and I wanted to start off

05:32.050 --> 05:34.600
with our engineering evaluation , cost

05:34.600 --> 05:37.220
analysis , pilot study and give a brief

05:37.220 --> 05:39.387
update where we're at . And again what

05:39.387 --> 05:41.442
this is as part of the Comprehensive

05:41.442 --> 05:43.670
Environmental Response compensation and

05:43.670 --> 05:45.880
liability act . Or commonly heard as

05:45.890 --> 05:48.760
circle it and ECA is required to

05:48.760 --> 05:50.820
satisfy our environmental review

05:50.820 --> 05:53.570
requirements for any interim responses .

05:53.570 --> 05:56.360
So what that means is as we're going

05:56.360 --> 05:58.950
through this investigation before we

05:58.950 --> 06:01.980
are able to execute any interim

06:01.990 --> 06:04.140
responses before the final

06:04.200 --> 06:07.120
investigation is completed . We must

06:07.120 --> 06:09.700
complete this zika . So this completes

06:09.700 --> 06:12.010
that administrative requirement that we

06:12.010 --> 06:15.200
must check that box . Now with this we

06:15.210 --> 06:18.030
also were able to tie in a pilot study

06:18.030 --> 06:19.974
which is going to be a small scale

06:19.974 --> 06:21.974
treatment system that's entirely on

06:21.974 --> 06:24.030
base and I'll talk a little bit more

06:24.030 --> 06:25.752
about that in the next slide .

06:28.540 --> 06:32.160
Okay , so with our

06:32.160 --> 06:35.640
pilot study , these two pictures here

06:35.640 --> 06:38.020
show a little bit of the give a little

06:38.020 --> 06:40.560
bit of the understanding of why we

06:40.560 --> 06:42.782
chose the location that we did and pick

06:42.782 --> 06:46.590
the pilot study for this echo . So on

06:46.590 --> 06:49.670
the left side you will see contours of

06:49.680 --> 06:52.450
our aquifer and you can see the green

06:52.450 --> 06:55.360
shaded area are deeper paleo channels

06:55.840 --> 06:57.840
and then on the right it's going to

06:57.840 --> 06:59.562
show you that groundwater flow

06:59.562 --> 07:01.784
direction which is generally flowing in

07:01.784 --> 07:03.729
the southeast direction . And then

07:03.729 --> 07:05.451
those small orange dots on the

07:05.451 --> 07:08.690
southeast border of our base are the

07:08.690 --> 07:11.610
larger concentrations of p fast impact

07:11.610 --> 07:14.060
that were discovered during our site

07:14.070 --> 07:17.260
inspection of RP fast investigation .

07:17.740 --> 07:20.040
So taking all three of those together ,

07:20.050 --> 07:22.272
we decided that that would be the prime

07:22.272 --> 07:24.580
location to put this pilot study and

07:24.580 --> 07:26.636
what that pilot study is going to do

07:26.636 --> 07:29.050
for us is gather additional information

07:29.060 --> 07:32.070
to put into that zika and give us a

07:32.080 --> 07:34.247
better , well rounded Eca which at the

07:34.247 --> 07:36.413
end of that what that zika is going to

07:36.413 --> 07:39.420
provide to us is a list of different

07:39.420 --> 07:41.587
opportunities and different what's the

07:41.587 --> 07:45.540
best interim response that we

07:45.540 --> 07:47.540
can put in place here at Cannon Air

07:47.540 --> 07:49.707
Force Base based on the information we

07:49.707 --> 07:51.818
have currently , the other thing that

07:51.818 --> 07:54.040
this treatment plant is going to do for

07:54.040 --> 07:56.151
us is it's going to have a lot of the

07:56.151 --> 07:58.373
infrastructure there . So at the end of

07:58.373 --> 08:00.540
this process , if the eca does tell us

08:00.540 --> 08:02.762
that a full scale pump and treat system

08:02.762 --> 08:04.929
is the most viable option to treat the

08:04.929 --> 08:07.800
aquifer will have a lot of the main

08:07.800 --> 08:09.967
infrastructure there . And what I mean

08:09.967 --> 08:12.133
by that is this building will be built

08:12.133 --> 08:14.300
in a way that it's flexible . So if we

08:14.300 --> 08:16.467
need to full scale it up we don't have

08:16.467 --> 08:18.300
to build another building , it's

08:18.300 --> 08:20.300
already there , we'll just put more

08:20.300 --> 08:22.356
extraction wells and injection wells

08:22.356 --> 08:25.310
and we can expand it very rapidly . Now

08:25.310 --> 08:28.330
with this the water will be taken out

08:28.330 --> 08:30.163
of the ground and treated at the

08:30.163 --> 08:32.390
treatment plant and then be reinjected

08:32.390 --> 08:35.720
back into the aquifer to go back and

08:35.720 --> 08:38.830
replenish that . So in it will be a net

08:38.830 --> 08:40.960
zero effect on the aquifer Excel .

08:43.340 --> 08:46.190
Now where we're at in this project in

08:46.190 --> 08:48.630
the whole is we have awarded it , we've

08:48.630 --> 08:50.686
completed our initial site visit and

08:50.686 --> 08:52.780
kick off meeting , they've completed

08:52.780 --> 08:55.730
their sampling event and they have also

08:55.740 --> 08:57.990
completed the work , plans for both the

08:58.000 --> 08:59.944
aquifer test and the treat ability

08:59.944 --> 09:02.360
study which they are currently in the

09:02.360 --> 09:05.710
process of doing the treat ability

09:05.710 --> 09:07.766
study which that portion is going to

09:07.766 --> 09:10.250
tell us whether a granulated active

09:10.250 --> 09:12.900
carbon or an ion exchange or a

09:12.900 --> 09:15.150
combination of the two is going to be

09:15.160 --> 09:17.740
the best method for treating the

09:17.740 --> 09:20.330
groundwater and then they will be

09:20.330 --> 09:22.900
actually starting field work for the

09:22.900 --> 09:25.067
aquifer test here within the next week

09:25.067 --> 09:27.800
or two . So we are rapidly moving

09:27.800 --> 09:31.270
through this process . Once those two

09:31.270 --> 09:33.437
stages of this are done they will take

09:33.437 --> 09:35.870
that data and then put it into the

09:35.870 --> 09:38.290
design phase where they're going to

09:38.300 --> 09:41.020
come up with the best pilot study for

09:41.020 --> 09:43.250
this . And again keeping in mind as

09:43.250 --> 09:45.472
they design this , making sure that the

09:45.472 --> 09:47.850
in product will be flexible so that way

09:48.040 --> 09:50.207
when the final echoes there again , if

09:50.207 --> 09:52.373
it tells us that a full scale pump and

09:52.373 --> 09:54.820
treat system is the best option we can

09:54.820 --> 09:56.850
go right into that and expand this

09:56.850 --> 10:00.640
system fully . Uh huh . Uh

10:00.640 --> 10:04.530
huh . Now for an update where we're at

10:04.530 --> 10:06.860
with our remedial investigation we have

10:06.860 --> 10:08.840
completed our work planet has been

10:08.840 --> 10:12.760
finalized as of September one fieldwork

10:12.760 --> 10:14.482
will be commencing shortly . I

10:14.482 --> 10:16.990
currently have my contractor mobilizing

10:16.990 --> 10:19.190
on base and getting their operations

10:19.190 --> 10:21.880
set up here . First field work to be

10:21.880 --> 10:24.040
completed will be off base while

10:24.040 --> 10:26.360
sampling and soul sampling and with

10:26.360 --> 10:28.580
that it's very important for everyone

10:28.590 --> 10:30.980
to understand that the landowners must

10:30.980 --> 10:33.091
give permission before samples can be

10:33.091 --> 10:35.260
collected . So right now we're working

10:35.260 --> 10:38.190
on those access agreements that both

10:38.200 --> 10:41.020
the base and the landowners must sign

10:41.030 --> 10:43.150
before I can get my contractors out

10:43.150 --> 10:45.330
there to collect these samples and

10:45.330 --> 10:48.040
again that is very important because

10:48.040 --> 10:50.310
that's going to help us into the next

10:50.310 --> 10:52.400
stages of where would be the best

10:52.400 --> 10:55.080
places to put our new groundwater

10:55.080 --> 10:58.940
monitoring wells off base . Yeah ,

10:59.440 --> 11:02.780
uh huh . With

11:02.780 --> 11:05.480
that again , just to kind of reiterate

11:05.490 --> 11:07.880
the air force's commitment and focus on

11:07.880 --> 11:11.760
investigating the p fast impact here

11:11.770 --> 11:13.992
at Cannon , both on and off base . This

11:13.992 --> 11:16.380
is , it's about $31 million dollars

11:16.380 --> 11:19.060
that has been spent to date . And as we

11:19.070 --> 11:21.292
go through this process , these numbers

11:21.292 --> 11:23.350
will increase and as we continue

11:23.350 --> 11:25.683
through these quarterly public meetings ,

11:25.683 --> 11:27.794
you'll see additional costs that will

11:27.794 --> 11:28.850
be added to this .

11:32.640 --> 11:34.910
Now with our , I wanted to touch back

11:34.920 --> 11:37.250
because uh we have finalized this , I'd

11:37.250 --> 11:39.194
like to thank those members of the

11:39.194 --> 11:41.083
community that respond to the rab

11:41.083 --> 11:43.680
solicitation based on those results .

11:43.680 --> 11:45.847
The decision was made not to establish

11:45.847 --> 11:48.470
a rabbit this time . A full MFR can be

11:48.470 --> 11:50.581
found at the address that shown , but

11:50.581 --> 11:52.470
in short , the results of the rab

11:52.470 --> 11:54.192
solicitation substantiates the

11:54.192 --> 11:56.470
community's interest in PFS impact .

11:56.480 --> 11:59.150
And we remain committed to ongoing

11:59.150 --> 12:00.817
quarterly public meetings for

12:00.817 --> 12:02.983
transparency , public participation in

12:02.983 --> 12:04.940
the benefit of the community . And

12:04.940 --> 12:06.940
again , I want to reiterate that we

12:06.940 --> 12:09.162
have our remedial investigation . Field

12:09.162 --> 12:11.329
work is starting our co pilot study is

12:11.329 --> 12:13.496
the first step towards implementing an

12:13.496 --> 12:15.496
interim response which will both be

12:15.496 --> 12:17.690
continued to discuss thoroughly

12:17.690 --> 12:19.579
throughout all of these quarterly

12:19.579 --> 12:21.746
public meetings and these meetings are

12:21.746 --> 12:24.060
going to go on throughout the entire

12:24.640 --> 12:27.430
investigation process and cleanup

12:27.430 --> 12:28.750
process through this .

12:32.940 --> 12:35.270
So and then just to kind of wrap it

12:35.270 --> 12:37.560
back up going forward again , the eca

12:37.560 --> 12:40.360
pilot study were at the aquifer test

12:40.360 --> 12:42.830
and the treat ability study phase those

12:42.830 --> 12:44.941
two once completed those are going to

12:44.941 --> 12:47.410
go into our design build phase portion

12:47.410 --> 12:50.540
of it are remedial investigation . We

12:50.540 --> 12:52.762
have contractors that are mobilizing in

12:52.762 --> 12:55.240
the field as of yesterday that

12:55.240 --> 12:58.670
fieldwork will start off base with the

12:58.680 --> 13:01.590
well samples and soil samples and again

13:01.600 --> 13:03.840
getting the landowners to give us

13:03.840 --> 13:06.090
permissions is a must before we can

13:06.090 --> 13:08.257
collect those samples and then further

13:08.257 --> 13:10.368
determine what that nature and extent

13:10.368 --> 13:12.560
of the plume is . And again all this

13:12.560 --> 13:14.616
information that we gather from this

13:14.616 --> 13:16.782
room medial investigation will also be

13:16.782 --> 13:19.140
filtered back into the Ika and fully

13:19.140 --> 13:21.860
inform what all kinds of interim

13:22.240 --> 13:24.240
responses that could potentially be

13:24.240 --> 13:27.430
taken . And then our next quarterly

13:27.430 --> 13:29.652
public meeting right now is tentatively

13:29.652 --> 13:33.340
planned for December 15 of 2021 . I'm

13:33.340 --> 13:35.507
going to try to keep these meetings as

13:35.507 --> 13:37.770
consistent as I can so they should be

13:37.770 --> 13:39.826
hopefully happening that same middle

13:39.826 --> 13:41.850
week Wednesdays of each of the same

13:41.850 --> 13:44.450
months as they've been happening so far .

13:46.940 --> 13:49.280
Now I know last time that we had this

13:49.280 --> 13:51.336
meeting there were several questions

13:51.336 --> 13:53.502
that were brought up about the ability

13:53.502 --> 13:56.310
to see the work plans with those being

13:56.310 --> 13:58.477
finalized . They have been uploaded to

13:58.477 --> 14:00.610
the aft check they are and so these

14:00.610 --> 14:02.666
slides will both be available on the

14:02.666 --> 14:05.560
recorded version of this at our p a

14:05.560 --> 14:08.320
website on the environmental tab and

14:08.320 --> 14:11.620
then also the recording of this and the

14:11.620 --> 14:14.050
slides will both be there . Now we have

14:14.050 --> 14:16.190
the R . I . Work plan that will be

14:16.190 --> 14:18.300
uploaded shortly but I've already

14:18.310 --> 14:20.750
earmarked that are numbers so that way

14:20.750 --> 14:22.861
you'll have it and it will be easy to

14:22.861 --> 14:24.972
reference and then the aquifer test ,

14:24.972 --> 14:27.083
work plan and the treat ability study

14:27.083 --> 14:28.917
work plan have both already been

14:28.917 --> 14:30.806
uploaded there for your reference

14:33.640 --> 14:35.751
and then again from our first meeting

14:35.751 --> 14:37.973
it was requested that we would continue

14:37.973 --> 14:40.140
to have common acronyms at the end and

14:40.140 --> 14:42.251
I'll continue to have those and if we

14:42.251 --> 14:44.418
find more that are commonly used we'll

14:44.418 --> 14:46.640
continue to update that for anyone that

14:46.640 --> 14:50.330
needs it . So with

14:50.330 --> 14:53.220
that again I appreciate everybody's

14:53.230 --> 14:55.341
involvement with this . And one thing

14:55.341 --> 14:57.452
that I did also want to say before we

14:57.452 --> 15:01.060
open it up for questions is uh feedback

15:01.070 --> 15:03.880
any input on how we can grow these

15:03.880 --> 15:06.010
meetings because this is a community

15:06.010 --> 15:09.490
involvement meeting here is for not

15:09.490 --> 15:11.740
only for me to involve the community

15:11.740 --> 15:14.190
and give you all updates on where we're

15:14.200 --> 15:16.840
at but I would like feedback to on what

15:16.840 --> 15:18.896
you would like to see so that way we

15:18.896 --> 15:20.896
can continue growing these and keep

15:20.896 --> 15:24.400
these valid for everyone . So with that

15:24.410 --> 15:28.220
I will open it up for questions and we

15:28.220 --> 15:31.450
can go from there chris before we get

15:31.450 --> 15:34.390
started we do have a question from Mr

15:34.390 --> 15:37.070
Pyle . Um the question in the chat room

15:37.070 --> 15:39.790
is how many landowner agreements have

15:39.790 --> 15:42.950
you got signed on samples and how many

15:42.950 --> 15:45.300
are still pending ? Is that a question

15:45.300 --> 15:47.540
that you have readily have an answer

15:47.540 --> 15:49.960
for ? Right now ? There are 10

15:49.960 --> 15:51.793
agreements that are being routed

15:51.793 --> 15:53.793
through the wing for signature once

15:53.793 --> 15:55.890
those have been completed and they

15:55.890 --> 15:58.057
should be completed here fairly soon .

15:58.057 --> 16:00.112
Will be going out to those different

16:00.112 --> 16:03.210
landowners to take it to them . So this

16:03.220 --> 16:05.220
this was a great opportunity that I

16:05.220 --> 16:07.220
wanted to kind of preface this with

16:07.220 --> 16:09.640
everybody that these are coming and

16:09.640 --> 16:11.584
it's very important that we do get

16:11.584 --> 16:13.800
these signs so that way we can get out

16:13.800 --> 16:16.610
there and do this work . So these are

16:16.620 --> 16:20.360
in routing right now . So of course

16:20.360 --> 16:23.030
I'll add to that . This is rick masters

16:23.040 --> 16:26.050
I received them today . I am doing my

16:26.050 --> 16:28.490
initial review and then they should be

16:28.490 --> 16:32.090
to Colonel taylor for signature . Uh no

16:32.090 --> 16:34.460
later than friday . If not by tomorrow .

16:34.470 --> 16:36.960
Over thank you sir .

16:42.540 --> 16:44.707
Okay at this time we'd like to open it

16:44.707 --> 16:46.818
up to any individuals that are on the

16:46.818 --> 16:49.040
call that would like to ask questions .

16:49.040 --> 16:51.262
Just please make sure you and your mind

16:51.270 --> 16:53.270
if you're on a desktop you can find

16:53.270 --> 16:55.159
your mute at the bottom left hand

16:55.159 --> 16:57.381
corner of your screen . Um You can also

16:57.381 --> 16:59.730
find it on your cell phone . Um if you

16:59.730 --> 17:01.786
tap on the screen it should pop up ,

17:11.940 --> 17:15.840
are you waiting on me ? Mr Bradley ? If

17:15.840 --> 17:18.007
you have a question . The floor is all

17:18.007 --> 17:21.810
yours . Thank you appreciate it . Uh I

17:21.820 --> 17:23.840
know that the mexican Environment

17:23.840 --> 17:26.960
Department recently did a voluntary

17:26.970 --> 17:30.230
testing program out in this area . Have

17:30.230 --> 17:33.000
you coordinated with with them and can

17:33.000 --> 17:36.600
you use their information to get the

17:36.600 --> 17:39.660
size of this blue ? Now when you say

17:39.660 --> 17:42.770
voluntary testing are you referring to

17:42.780 --> 17:46.160
the the ongoing work that they're doing

17:46.640 --> 17:49.440
okay ? Because I know that we're

17:49.440 --> 17:51.496
actually coordinating with them were

17:51.496 --> 17:54.020
having their contractors coming out and

17:54.020 --> 17:56.220
we'll be doing work at our base and

17:56.220 --> 17:58.553
we'll be taking split samples with them .

17:58.553 --> 18:01.820
Uh As far as I know their data is not

18:01.820 --> 18:03.931
available but once their data becomes

18:03.931 --> 18:06.550
available uh we would take a look at

18:06.550 --> 18:08.661
that and we do coordinate and provide

18:08.661 --> 18:11.260
them any of our data as we finalize it

18:11.440 --> 18:13.496
we provide them copies of all of our

18:13.496 --> 18:17.260
data to . Okay and along that same

18:17.260 --> 18:20.420
line I know that in the beginning we

18:20.420 --> 18:23.370
were told that uh in preliminary

18:23.370 --> 18:26.370
testing and now this is over a year ago

18:26.380 --> 18:29.400
probably probably two years ago That

18:29.410 --> 18:32.230
the air force did some testing in a

18:32.240 --> 18:35.360
about a five mile radius . Ah

18:35.940 --> 18:39.730
uh of the base Are outside of

18:39.740 --> 18:43.030
about five miles out . Can you can you

18:43.030 --> 18:47.020
tell us uh what was the further ist

18:47.030 --> 18:50.700
positive testing ? Well from the south

18:50.700 --> 18:53.850
going south east from the base .

18:55.140 --> 18:58.300
Um I don't I don't name I'm just I'm

18:58.300 --> 19:01.230
curious . I don't know and I can

19:01.230 --> 19:03.670
picture it on the map that we went over

19:03.670 --> 19:07.350
in the first . I'm trying to think

19:07.840 --> 19:10.170
that's something that I could take away

19:10.180 --> 19:13.160
and uh see what we can come up with for

19:13.160 --> 19:15.104
you on that because I don't have a

19:15.104 --> 19:18.470
definitive answer on mileage . I can

19:18.470 --> 19:21.150
tell you that it was within the four

19:21.150 --> 19:24.460
mile range . For sure . Uh

19:26.440 --> 19:28.551
And I want to say that it wasn't very

19:28.551 --> 19:31.610
far off the baseline , it was within

19:31.610 --> 19:35.050
line of sight of the okay

19:37.740 --> 19:40.960
hey chris kirky this is uh crystal ,

19:41.080 --> 19:43.460
please excuse the interruption . Um Mr

19:43.460 --> 19:45.680
Brown . Yes and I do recall that and

19:45.680 --> 19:47.902
yes it was a four model radius that was

19:47.902 --> 19:50.124
following E . P . A guidance . Um We do

19:50.124 --> 19:52.410
have maps that show those detections

19:52.410 --> 19:54.521
and how far off the installation that

19:54.521 --> 19:56.688
was detected . So what Turkey could do

19:56.688 --> 19:58.799
chris Kirk you could do is we can see

19:58.799 --> 20:00.966
about sharing that . Um that figure in

20:00.966 --> 20:03.132
that illustration next time but we can

20:03.132 --> 20:05.188
also provide that to you directly as

20:05.188 --> 20:07.132
well . But my inclination is . And

20:07.132 --> 20:09.354
again without the data in front of us I

20:09.354 --> 20:11.466
believe that that the furthest hit we

20:11.466 --> 20:13.188
got was roughly a mile off the

20:13.188 --> 20:15.420
installation and it was below the part

20:15.420 --> 20:17.476
spiritual . And I think it was about

20:17.476 --> 20:19.642
25.5 . But again sir we do have all of

20:19.642 --> 20:21.698
that data in a power point . And and

20:21.698 --> 20:23.809
maybe it would be worth maybe pulling

20:23.809 --> 20:25.976
that up during the next public meeting

20:25.976 --> 20:28.087
or what have you just to re socialize

20:28.087 --> 20:29.753
that . Um But we do have that

20:29.753 --> 20:29.600
information available and we will share

20:29.600 --> 20:32.260
that with you directly . I really

20:32.260 --> 20:34.450
appreciate it . We're obviously very

20:34.450 --> 20:38.040
interested in how far southeast that

20:38.050 --> 20:40.770
bloom is gone . So I'd appreciate that .

20:41.540 --> 20:45.540
Yes sir . This is

20:45.540 --> 20:47.373
a shame with the Air Force Civil

20:47.373 --> 20:49.540
Engineer Center . Uh Mr Bradley . It's

20:49.540 --> 20:52.780
good to see you sir . Can everyone Yes .

20:52.790 --> 20:54.901
While since we've chatted anyhow , we

20:54.901 --> 20:56.957
have to remember that at the time we

20:56.957 --> 20:58.790
were executing the expanded side

20:58.790 --> 21:01.012
investigation , we were targeting human

21:01.012 --> 21:03.123
consumption , water sources for human

21:03.123 --> 21:05.320
consumption . So what the remedial

21:05.320 --> 21:07.264
investigation will do that ? Chris

21:07.264 --> 21:09.487
Gorky was referencing is give us a much

21:09.487 --> 21:12.100
clearer picture because now we have the

21:12.100 --> 21:15.860
ability to sample agricultural wells as

21:15.860 --> 21:19.060
well . Okay great good

21:26.040 --> 21:27.984
Mr Bradley . Do you have any other

21:27.984 --> 21:30.151
questions before just trying to find ?

21:30.151 --> 21:32.207
Uh There we go . Lower . Thank you .

21:32.240 --> 21:34.129
Thank you for your question sir .

21:36.440 --> 21:38.273
Do we have any other questions ?

21:43.740 --> 21:45.851
This is James DRC . I've got a couple

21:45.851 --> 21:48.270
if I may . Yes sir .

21:50.140 --> 21:53.800
Um uh chris Shane

21:53.810 --> 21:57.210
chris . Good to hear you guys

21:57.220 --> 22:00.710
again after all this time . Can you uh

22:00.720 --> 22:02.920
tell us you know maybe a little more

22:02.920 --> 22:06.890
detail about um the work that

22:06.890 --> 22:10.710
the USgS has done in fy 20 that you

22:10.710 --> 22:14.320
said has already been funded or or done

22:14.330 --> 22:16.570
the and I know that there's a work plan

22:16.570 --> 22:18.681
for the awkward for test that I could

22:18.681 --> 22:20.848
go and look at . But could you perhaps

22:20.848 --> 22:22.903
tell the audience a little bit about

22:22.903 --> 22:24.681
the aquifer test . I'm a little

22:24.681 --> 22:27.620
concerned that it appears that the

22:27.630 --> 22:30.460
proposed infiltration gallery for the

22:30.470 --> 22:34.210
pilot test um , is not upgrading

22:34.230 --> 22:36.660
within the capture zone of your

22:36.660 --> 22:39.760
injection wells that it's actually on

22:39.770 --> 22:43.590
the um eastern edge of

22:43.590 --> 22:46.800
the base , suggesting that it could

22:46.810 --> 22:50.720
flow rather uh readily

22:50.730 --> 22:53.000
into that first North south Paleo

22:53.000 --> 22:55.167
channel off the southeast corner . Can

22:55.167 --> 22:57.333
you address that ? Might be helpful if

22:57.333 --> 22:59.500
you pulled up that map that shows your

22:59.500 --> 23:01.960
proposed pilot system ?

23:03.940 --> 23:05.384
Thank you . Get that full

23:09.840 --> 23:13.340
Oh , okay , give me just one moment and

23:13.340 --> 23:15.118
I'll get that slide pulled up .

23:30.140 --> 23:32.170
Okay , can everyone see it ?

23:33.440 --> 23:35.830
So again , I want to reiterate this is

23:35.830 --> 23:39.680
a draft design , so there we

23:39.680 --> 23:42.200
go , this is a draft design . So those ,

23:42.210 --> 23:44.099
those points right ? There aren't

23:44.099 --> 23:46.321
necessarily where they're going to be .

23:46.321 --> 23:48.377
So they come in and pulled samples ,

23:48.377 --> 23:50.530
they're going to put in that aquifer

23:50.530 --> 23:52.970
test to , you know , determine how much

23:52.970 --> 23:55.137
can be pumped out of there at a time .

23:55.137 --> 23:57.390
Um you know , all the details really go

23:57.390 --> 23:59.710
into there and if we would like on the

23:59.710 --> 24:02.590
next meeting or if you have questions

24:02.590 --> 24:04.534
off the side , we can go into more

24:04.534 --> 24:06.701
detail in there , but it's going to go

24:06.701 --> 24:10.460
into the design full design on how

24:10.460 --> 24:13.540
we're going to place those . So based

24:13.540 --> 24:16.360
on Rs I data , the flow rate , our

24:16.360 --> 24:18.582
knowledge of the paleo channels , those

24:18.582 --> 24:20.693
may slide around there a little bit .

24:20.693 --> 24:22.804
It just depends , but this is again ,

24:22.804 --> 24:24.971
this is the pilot study , this isn't a

24:24.971 --> 24:27.530
full scale pump and treat system . This

24:27.530 --> 24:31.150
is meant to give us data that will go

24:31.150 --> 24:34.960
into the ECA and tell us capture zone

24:34.960 --> 24:38.140
rates , how well is this doing , does

24:38.140 --> 24:41.850
the media that we sampled or selected

24:42.440 --> 24:45.390
effectively treat this and give us the

24:45.390 --> 24:48.560
overall idea of what is the best

24:49.140 --> 24:51.320
treatment system for this aquifer . So

24:51.320 --> 24:53.500
this is this is a small scale pilot

24:53.500 --> 24:56.480
study when it goes to full scale , if

24:56.480 --> 24:58.536
it's determined that because there's

24:58.536 --> 25:00.758
going to be additional monitoring wells

25:00.758 --> 25:02.869
as you can see there are those little

25:02.869 --> 25:04.813
round circles with the crosses and

25:04.813 --> 25:07.147
light blue , those are monitoring wells .

25:07.147 --> 25:09.313
So if that one that's a little further

25:09.313 --> 25:11.369
east is still showing that there are

25:11.369 --> 25:13.147
levels there and it's not being

25:13.147 --> 25:15.147
addressed by an extraction well the

25:15.147 --> 25:17.091
full scale design is going to have

25:17.091 --> 25:19.147
additional extraction wells that are

25:19.147 --> 25:21.313
going to be put in place . So that way

25:21.313 --> 25:23.536
we're fully capturing everything that's

25:23.536 --> 25:25.536
coming off base . So again I got to

25:25.536 --> 25:27.702
reiterate that this is this is a pilot

25:27.702 --> 25:30.490
study . This isn't meant to capture

25:30.500 --> 25:32.722
everything that's coming off base right

25:32.722 --> 25:35.220
now . Before we can get to that stage

25:35.220 --> 25:39.120
we have to do the eCA pilot study .

25:39.120 --> 25:41.287
That is a requirement by law following

25:41.287 --> 25:43.400
circle that that must be completed

25:43.400 --> 25:46.850
before a interim action can be done but

25:46.850 --> 25:49.370
we were able to put this pilot study in

25:49.370 --> 25:52.700
there that will give us better data and

25:52.700 --> 25:54.867
speed up the process to get us to that

25:54.867 --> 25:57.760
full scale pump and treat system ,

25:59.240 --> 26:02.320
Does that make sense sir ? Yeah . Yeah .

26:02.330 --> 26:04.386
Thanks chris just one more follow up

26:04.386 --> 26:06.552
before you get to art . I see he's got

26:06.552 --> 26:08.850
his hand up . Are you going to uh the

26:08.850 --> 26:10.961
Air Force going to approach the state

26:10.961 --> 26:12.850
to get a discharge permit for the

26:12.850 --> 26:14.794
injection or is it the Air Force's

26:14.794 --> 26:17.017
position that that's not required under

26:17.017 --> 26:20.060
circle ? We will be following our legal

26:20.070 --> 26:23.290
moments when it comes to any permitting

26:23.290 --> 26:25.346
requirements . So we'll work closely

26:25.346 --> 26:27.512
with our legal team and follow what is

26:27.512 --> 26:29.512
required . But we are following the

26:29.512 --> 26:31.623
circle process throughout this p fast

26:31.623 --> 26:35.470
investigation . So does that mean that

26:35.480 --> 26:37.647
you're not going to approach the state

26:37.647 --> 26:40.220
for a discharge permit ? And if you

26:40.220 --> 26:43.180
can't answer that um Today it would be

26:43.180 --> 26:45.069
great if you could answer that in

26:45.069 --> 26:47.180
december . I think that that would be

26:47.180 --> 26:49.780
pretty crucial for new mexicans to be

26:49.780 --> 26:51.670
able to have um an opportunity to

26:51.670 --> 26:54.730
understand that it's um state agency at

26:54.730 --> 26:58.670
least has some steak uh in this . I'll

26:58.670 --> 27:01.190
double down on that by noting that the

27:01.200 --> 27:04.300
two opportunities for agency comment ,

27:04.300 --> 27:07.430
both E . P . A . And N . M . E . D .

27:07.440 --> 27:10.050
Are pretty short there 30 days for

27:10.050 --> 27:13.620
pretty pretty complex documents and

27:13.620 --> 27:17.460
plans . Um So uh at

27:17.460 --> 27:19.627
least I know there there are some that

27:19.627 --> 27:23.310
would uh urge the Air Force to

27:23.320 --> 27:26.500
um strongly consider seeking a

27:26.510 --> 27:29.440
discharge permit from the state for

27:29.440 --> 27:32.950
your re injection . Thank you again and

27:32.950 --> 27:35.320
we'll follow what our legal guidance is

27:35.330 --> 27:38.320
when it comes to that . But again with

27:38.320 --> 27:40.487
these 30 day comment periods , this is

27:40.487 --> 27:42.730
a standard comment period when it comes

27:42.730 --> 27:45.580
to the circle process and we have

27:45.580 --> 27:47.636
received comments back in these time

27:47.636 --> 27:50.580
periods before . And if there is an

27:50.580 --> 27:52.469
issue with those time frames were

27:52.469 --> 27:54.247
always willing to work with our

27:54.247 --> 27:56.469
counterparts both at the state and EU .

27:56.640 --> 27:59.270
Um where they can reach out to us and

27:59.340 --> 28:02.090
discuss those timelines further with us

28:02.090 --> 28:05.960
directly . Really good to hear . Thanks

28:05.960 --> 28:07.770
chris , thank you

28:10.340 --> 28:12.562
chris . We have a question from Mr shop

28:14.040 --> 28:16.096
asking if we can provide the last 10

28:16.096 --> 28:17.850
years of water testing results

28:18.240 --> 28:20.270
conducted by the Public works

28:20.270 --> 28:22.310
department or an entity that tests

28:22.310 --> 28:25.320
water for Cannon Air Force Base . So I

28:25.320 --> 28:27.098
believe that's actually our bio

28:27.098 --> 28:29.700
environmental group that does that and

28:29.700 --> 28:32.760
they post that publicly . I believe

28:32.760 --> 28:34.982
that's an annual requirement for them .

28:34.982 --> 28:37.090
But that is outside of the range of

28:37.090 --> 28:40.300
what it is that we're responsible here .

28:40.300 --> 28:42.189
So I'm not exactly sure how I can

28:42.189 --> 28:43.967
address that for you but that's

28:43.967 --> 28:45.967
something that we could look into .

28:45.967 --> 28:49.730
Yeah . Hagerty , just to add to that if

28:49.730 --> 28:52.040
I may , I'm confident every year we put

28:52.040 --> 28:54.262
out a consumer confidence report as the

28:54.262 --> 28:56.484
owner of our drinking water system . So

28:56.484 --> 28:58.540
the C . C . R . S . Are published on

28:58.540 --> 29:00.596
the new Mexico department as well as

29:00.596 --> 29:02.651
probably and more than likely on the

29:02.651 --> 29:05.080
Canyon web page . So yes that that that

29:05.080 --> 29:07.080
is absolutely available . That is a

29:07.080 --> 29:09.080
requirement . It's a drinking water

29:09.080 --> 29:11.191
requirement and it is up on the state

29:11.191 --> 29:13.191
websites and it is up on the Canada

29:13.191 --> 29:12.990
site and they're the consumer

29:12.990 --> 29:15.770
confidence reports and that uh that

29:15.770 --> 29:19.050
that synthesizes all the contaminants

29:19.050 --> 29:21.420
within that drinking water source for

29:21.420 --> 29:24.560
that year . Yeah .

29:28.240 --> 29:29.240
Yeah .

29:33.740 --> 29:35.907
And then chris if you want mind taking

29:35.907 --> 29:39.260
mr scops um question on the N . B . A .

29:39.270 --> 29:43.240
Topic . I'm sorry , let me scroll up

29:43.240 --> 29:44.351
so I can see that .

29:49.840 --> 29:52.590
Oh let me read this out in 2020 , the

29:52.590 --> 29:55.230
National Defense Authorization Act were

29:55.230 --> 29:57.920
you instructed by Congress to clean up

29:57.930 --> 29:59.930
the water to acquire land and farms

29:59.930 --> 30:01.763
surrounding cannon that has been

30:01.763 --> 30:03.850
contaminated with pitfalls before ?

30:03.860 --> 30:06.470
Where are what and where are you in

30:06.470 --> 30:09.860
this process ? Mm .

30:10.740 --> 30:14.630
So and with that um we're using

30:14.630 --> 30:16.630
our circle authorities to address p

30:16.630 --> 30:18.852
fast circle is the process that we have

30:18.852 --> 30:21.110
to address unacceptable risk . And

30:21.110 --> 30:24.350
we're now following that action uh with

30:24.350 --> 30:26.870
that we've got our removal action with

30:26.870 --> 30:30.350
the he can pilot study to expedite our

30:30.350 --> 30:32.660
circle actions but India is a future

30:32.660 --> 30:34.720
tool that can be utilized after

30:34.730 --> 30:36.841
unacceptable risks are determined and

30:36.841 --> 30:39.063
that goes back to promulgated standards

30:39.063 --> 30:41.060
haven't been established so to

30:41.060 --> 30:43.020
determine that unacceptable risk ,

30:43.020 --> 30:45.187
we're using circle to determine that .

30:49.940 --> 30:53.450
Uh huh . Chris our next question comes

30:53.450 --> 30:56.330
from Mr Pyle , will you go back over

30:56.330 --> 30:58.690
the timeline also ? What has been put

30:58.700 --> 31:01.100
in place to keep the contamination from

31:01.100 --> 31:01.860
spreading .

31:06.040 --> 31:10.040
So with that Air Force has changed

31:10.040 --> 31:11.929
the ways that it operates using a

31:11.929 --> 31:15.170
triple left , so it has a hard

31:16.040 --> 31:19.680
yeah , It is removed the old C8

31:19.680 --> 31:22.320
legacy Foam and replaced it with the

31:22.320 --> 31:25.850
shorter C6 a trip left . And

31:25.860 --> 31:28.610
also in its training environment , it

31:28.610 --> 31:30.910
does not use a triple F in training

31:30.920 --> 31:33.120
anymore . It's always going to use

31:33.120 --> 31:35.840
water . It only uses a triple F in real

31:35.840 --> 31:38.062
world scenarios . And once that happens

31:38.062 --> 31:40.229
it makes sure that it cleans it up and

31:40.229 --> 31:42.396
contain arises it . So that way , it's

31:42.396 --> 31:43.260
not

31:46.640 --> 31:49.570
now again with our media investigation

31:49.570 --> 31:51.740
that's going to continue to determine

31:51.740 --> 31:53.740
what that nature and extent is . So

31:53.740 --> 31:55.740
that way we can , once the remedial

31:55.740 --> 31:57.860
investigation is done , feasibility

31:57.860 --> 31:59.971
study is done , we can look at a full

31:59.971 --> 32:02.390
scale remediation plan for what that

32:02.390 --> 32:05.020
plume is right now in the short term ,

32:05.030 --> 32:08.040
that's why we have this eca plan . So

32:08.040 --> 32:11.790
that way we can do a interim response

32:11.790 --> 32:13.957
and that is something in the near term

32:13.957 --> 32:17.280
here that we can start doing a response

32:17.290 --> 32:20.450
action now to start cleaning up what

32:20.450 --> 32:22.960
impact there is in the aquifer .

32:32.340 --> 32:34.780
Okay , Mr Gorky . The next question is

32:35.540 --> 32:39.350
from Mr martin .

32:39.360 --> 32:41.710
Have other options for the filtered

32:41.710 --> 32:43.900
clean water been considered besides

32:43.910 --> 32:45.950
injecting back into the aquifer

32:48.440 --> 32:50.607
and that's something that I believe we

32:50.607 --> 32:54.260
are looking through the Zika is water

32:54.260 --> 32:56.730
realization . I think right now the

32:56.730 --> 32:59.360
first thing that comes to mind is too ,

32:59.370 --> 33:01.630
as we all are very aware that our

33:01.630 --> 33:05.350
aquifer is depleting and so right

33:05.350 --> 33:07.572
now it would be to filter it and put it

33:07.572 --> 33:10.300
re injected back into the aquifer . So

33:10.300 --> 33:12.860
that way we have a zero effect on there .

33:13.340 --> 33:16.750
Um But it is something that we do

33:16.760 --> 33:19.870
discuss as to what other options there

33:19.870 --> 33:21.900
might potentially be for water

33:21.900 --> 33:24.180
realization that would be best for the

33:24.180 --> 33:25.270
local community .

33:34.840 --> 33:36.618
Our next question comes from Mr

33:36.618 --> 33:39.380
Longmire . Will the soil sediments

33:39.390 --> 33:42.970
present in the Eurozone vados zone

33:42.970 --> 33:46.140
beneath the I'm sorry .

33:46.150 --> 33:49.740
Yeah this one must be contamination is

33:49.740 --> 33:50.550
detected .

33:54.840 --> 33:57.330
So we're doing a very we were doing a

33:57.330 --> 34:00.770
very extensive remedial investigation

34:01.140 --> 34:04.250
and so that will go into if there are

34:04.260 --> 34:08.190
in one also in and that goes into the

34:08.190 --> 34:10.300
eca for short term . So if there are

34:10.300 --> 34:12.467
point sources that are discovered that

34:12.467 --> 34:14.689
would be potentials for digging hall so

34:14.689 --> 34:17.200
we could dig out those areas and

34:17.200 --> 34:19.311
potentially haul them off and dispose

34:19.311 --> 34:23.260
of them properly . That then reduces

34:23.260 --> 34:25.149
any further migration down to the

34:25.149 --> 34:26.871
ground water . That would be a

34:26.871 --> 34:28.927
potential . And then again that also

34:28.927 --> 34:31.770
looks at what could be done in the long

34:31.770 --> 34:33.690
term as we finalize that remedial

34:33.690 --> 34:35.801
investigation , what happens as we go

34:35.801 --> 34:37.968
through there . So this is going to be

34:37.968 --> 34:39.968
looked at as we go through remedial

34:39.968 --> 34:42.023
investigation and as we complete the

34:42.023 --> 34:44.246
investigation so there is the potential

34:44.246 --> 34:46.190
that yes remedial actions could be

34:46.190 --> 34:48.470
taken to dig out and address those

34:48.470 --> 34:49.060
areas ?

35:00.840 --> 35:03.160
Okay the next question that we have is

35:03.160 --> 35:06.650
from Mr shop . Um can you provide your

35:06.650 --> 35:08.372
D . O . D . Criticality threat

35:08.372 --> 35:10.428
assessment findings and responses to

35:10.428 --> 35:12.650
the D . O . D . For the last 10 years .

35:12.650 --> 35:16.060
Um Is that go back to what Mr Segura

35:16.060 --> 35:18.550
had mentioned earlier ? I believe so

35:18.560 --> 35:20.671
because that is something that is not

35:20.671 --> 35:23.004
in the restoration portfolio . So again ,

35:23.004 --> 35:24.782
that's going to go back to that

35:24.782 --> 35:28.390
consumer confidence report . And we

35:28.390 --> 35:30.612
have confirmed that it is on the Canyon

35:30.612 --> 35:32.834
website and it is titled drinking water

35:32.834 --> 35:33.834
report .

35:38.640 --> 35:41.950
Um Mr James Beer Z asks , is the

35:41.950 --> 35:43.870
aquifer test going to assess the

35:43.870 --> 35:46.150
pyramids Mr shops wells adjacent to the

35:46.150 --> 35:49.880
pilot test area . I would have to look

35:49.890 --> 35:52.590
at it . Um But I do know that we are

35:52.590 --> 35:54.757
working close with the Office of State

35:54.757 --> 35:57.580
Engineers when we are going to do this .

35:57.580 --> 35:58.960
Well ,

36:07.030 --> 36:09.363
okay , at this point in time , Mr Gorky ,

36:09.363 --> 36:11.530
this is the last question that we have

36:11.530 --> 36:13.752
in uh in the chat room . Do we have any

36:13.752 --> 36:15.808
other 10 days that would like to ask

36:15.808 --> 36:17.697
questions at this point in time ,

36:20.830 --> 36:23.052
Mr kern , Do you have your hand up ? Do

36:23.052 --> 36:26.330
you have a question ? Yes . Thanks very

36:26.340 --> 36:29.580
very much . I want to uh address

36:29.580 --> 36:33.540
Colonel Taylor and welcome him to the

36:33.540 --> 36:35.373
base and congratulate him on the

36:35.373 --> 36:38.970
command . Um I'm speaking as the

36:38.970 --> 36:42.410
executive director of a community group

36:42.420 --> 36:46.200
in Clovis called the Clean Water

36:46.200 --> 36:49.250
Partnership at Cannon and this is a

36:49.250 --> 36:51.700
community organization that is

36:51.700 --> 36:54.280
dedicated to helping find clean water

36:54.280 --> 36:58.080
solutions um in the face of

36:58.080 --> 37:01.250
this p fast water contamination problem .

37:02.330 --> 37:05.570
Um we had extended an

37:05.570 --> 37:08.390
invitation to Colonel mitosis

37:08.400 --> 37:11.340
previously your predecessor , which he

37:11.830 --> 37:15.460
did not take us up on

37:16.030 --> 37:18.450
at this juncture . Mr jerky has made it

37:18.450 --> 37:20.339
clear that there's no interest in

37:20.339 --> 37:22.980
community input through the restoration

37:22.980 --> 37:26.950
advisory board mechanism which

37:27.140 --> 37:29.310
you know , really does cut off

37:29.320 --> 37:32.350
community participation and

37:32.360 --> 37:36.320
dialogue . It's a monologue . And

37:36.320 --> 37:38.860
if if given the chance once every 90

37:38.860 --> 37:42.770
days to uh speak in a virtual capacity ,

37:42.770 --> 37:45.080
it's uh we consider it terribly

37:45.080 --> 37:48.810
inadequate considering that economic

37:48.820 --> 37:52.440
devastation that PFS

37:52.450 --> 37:55.420
portends for the community . And we

37:55.420 --> 37:58.420
have no real confidence based on Mr

37:58.420 --> 38:02.140
Gorky's perspective and his um lack

38:02.140 --> 38:04.250
of communication or interesting

38:04.250 --> 38:06.870
communicating that Colonel taylor user

38:06.870 --> 38:08.920
have the full picture about what is

38:08.920 --> 38:11.370
going on in this community . And

38:11.370 --> 38:13.370
therefore I would like to request a

38:13.370 --> 38:15.690
meeting between the clean water

38:15.690 --> 38:19.060
partnership Cannon and your office . I

38:19.060 --> 38:22.780
would invite you to come to some of the

38:22.780 --> 38:26.650
immediately neighbouring dairies To

38:26.650 --> 38:29.620
see for yourself where there are some

38:29.630 --> 38:32.840
2000 cows um

38:33.220 --> 38:36.750
that have died while on quarantine

38:37.120 --> 38:39.270
not more than a half a mile away from

38:39.270 --> 38:42.770
the fence line of the airbase to the

38:42.770 --> 38:46.510
rest of the community . I'd like

38:46.510 --> 38:49.910
you to get an understanding for

38:49.910 --> 38:52.190
yourself , not through surrogates , but

38:52.200 --> 38:55.080
for yourself about what's going on in

38:55.080 --> 38:57.450
the community and perhaps you'll

38:57.450 --> 39:00.770
appreciate why The idea of a pilot

39:00.770 --> 39:03.150
study which is two or 3 years in the

39:03.150 --> 39:06.250
future and then a potential um

39:06.720 --> 39:09.630
prophylactic project which might keep

39:09.640 --> 39:12.990
molecules moving from beneath the

39:12.990 --> 39:16.830
airbase to its neighbors in the face

39:16.840 --> 39:20.490
of a Wo of the fast in the water

39:20.920 --> 39:23.110
to the east and south east of the air

39:23.110 --> 39:25.870
base is already being , already being

39:25.870 --> 39:28.390
present . We'd like you to understand

39:28.390 --> 39:31.420
why much of the community considers

39:31.420 --> 39:34.460
that to be a woefully inadequate

39:34.460 --> 39:36.950
response to the problem .

39:37.820 --> 39:41.660
And we would like to review with you ,

39:41.670 --> 39:43.726
we'd like to have the opportunity to

39:43.726 --> 39:45.892
review with you what we consider to be

39:45.892 --> 39:48.030
your authority to take action to

39:48.030 --> 39:50.730
address the problem and not simply

39:50.730 --> 39:54.450
accept this . This line that is out

39:54.450 --> 39:56.590
there that circle to is the only

39:56.590 --> 39:59.140
governing body of law , the only

39:59.140 --> 40:01.470
authority for the base to take action

40:01.470 --> 40:03.637
to protect the neighboring community .

40:04.010 --> 40:06.300
And so I would very much like to extend

40:06.300 --> 40:08.920
the invitation to you at any time over

40:08.920 --> 40:11.370
the coming 30 days or 60 days whenever

40:11.370 --> 40:13.680
it is convenient to you for a face to

40:13.680 --> 40:16.460
face meeting with the community . And

40:16.460 --> 40:18.800
we'd like to do that either on the base

40:18.810 --> 40:22.530
or uh preferably on

40:22.530 --> 40:24.750
site on the locations including

40:24.750 --> 40:27.270
highland dairy , which has been

40:28.610 --> 40:31.460
financially and environmentally

40:31.460 --> 40:34.330
devastated by the Air Force is

40:35.110 --> 40:38.740
failures over these years . And

40:39.110 --> 40:41.320
it's uncomfortable to talk about it .

40:41.320 --> 40:43.431
And you won't see the city leaders of

40:43.710 --> 40:47.070
Clovis or curry county uh speaking up ,

40:47.080 --> 40:49.080
but the community itself would very

40:49.080 --> 40:51.220
much like to have your attention on

40:51.220 --> 40:53.164
these matters and know that you're

40:53.164 --> 40:56.910
hearing us , sir . So Mr kern , if I

40:56.910 --> 41:00.060
may the rab was not established because

41:00.060 --> 41:02.227
the information that was received from

41:02.227 --> 41:03.893
the responses was directed at

41:03.893 --> 41:06.060
specifically p false befo and so there

41:06.060 --> 41:08.170
is open communication and that's

41:08.170 --> 41:10.170
specifically why we're having these

41:10.170 --> 41:12.960
corporate public updates . They are

41:12.970 --> 41:15.440
publicly , they are public . I'm a

41:15.440 --> 41:17.720
please finish , I would like to

41:17.720 --> 41:21.700
publicly they are and they are

41:21.710 --> 41:24.490
not mr current , please , please go

41:24.490 --> 41:28.130
ahead . Colonel Taylor , thank you .

41:28.810 --> 41:31.840
They are publicly accountable . We have

41:31.840 --> 41:33.730
the MFR that documents all of our

41:33.730 --> 41:36.430
reasonings . We are open to all lines

41:36.430 --> 41:40.240
of communication and that

41:40.250 --> 41:43.830
we will be continuing this wrong . That

41:43.830 --> 41:46.190
is our commitment to the community that

41:46.190 --> 41:48.880
we are going to continue these open

41:48.880 --> 41:50.880
lines of communication to make sure

41:50.880 --> 41:53.102
that everybody is aware of exactly what

41:53.102 --> 41:55.620
is going on . And I reiterate again

41:55.620 --> 41:57.731
that when it comes to the pilot study

41:57.731 --> 42:00.010
in the eca , those are requirements by

42:00.010 --> 42:02.250
law that the Ika must be done before we

42:02.250 --> 42:04.880
can do an interim action and that's why

42:04.880 --> 42:06.936
we did that pilot study is to get us

42:06.936 --> 42:09.970
moving there even faster to get us to

42:09.980 --> 42:12.091
that interim corrective measure to be

42:12.091 --> 42:14.960
able to start actually affecting clean

42:14.960 --> 42:17.190
up and that's what we could do to get

42:17.190 --> 42:19.930
there even faster . All right . Yeah .

42:21.200 --> 42:23.422
Yes . And thank you very if I may add ,

42:23.430 --> 42:25.610
I know that's a legitimate concern

42:25.620 --> 42:27.398
starting the governance and the

42:27.398 --> 42:29.620
framework but you know , our commanders

42:29.620 --> 42:31.920
are bound by law , this is this is an

42:31.920 --> 42:34.490
ongoing litigation but this is the law

42:34.490 --> 42:36.657
and you know , given that PFS is not a

42:36.657 --> 42:39.090
record constituent , this is how the

42:39.100 --> 42:41.740
Air Force is managing the p fast

42:41.750 --> 42:44.600
impacts across the nation . So when it

42:44.600 --> 42:47.810
comes to decentralized execution , um ,

42:47.810 --> 42:50.032
that's not really what the Air Force is

42:50.032 --> 42:52.199
doing , PBS impacts , We're looking at

42:52.199 --> 42:54.366
it centrally . We're throwing a lot of

42:54.366 --> 42:56.588
investment at it a lot of time . Um , I

42:56.588 --> 42:58.754
believe that our response actions have

42:58.754 --> 43:00.921
shown that we are taking the community

43:00.921 --> 43:02.921
concerns seriously . Um , the rapid

43:02.921 --> 43:05.032
results furthermore substantiated the

43:05.032 --> 43:06.921
need for the quarterly updates to

43:06.921 --> 43:09.254
target PFS specific concerns . So again ,

43:09.254 --> 43:11.310
what we would like to offer is , you

43:11.310 --> 43:13.366
know , if there's things that we can

43:13.366 --> 43:12.930
add into the public meeting that would

43:12.930 --> 43:14.763
be of value to Mr kern or to the

43:14.763 --> 43:16.986
community , we're all about that and we

43:16.986 --> 43:19.097
would love to do that . We would love

43:19.097 --> 43:21.319
to hear your feedback , but I just want

43:21.319 --> 43:21.310
to indicate that , you know , this is

43:21.310 --> 43:23.532
the circle process . This is bounded by

43:23.532 --> 43:26.490
law flexibility and our ability to be

43:26.490 --> 43:28.601
able to manage this under a different

43:28.601 --> 43:30.657
framework just is not there . So our

43:30.657 --> 43:32.823
hands are tied and this is grounded in

43:32.823 --> 43:34.879
legal framework . So Mr kern , thank

43:34.879 --> 43:37.101
you for your concerns . Um , as we move

43:37.101 --> 43:38.990
forward , we'll continue to share

43:38.990 --> 43:41.046
information , will continue to share

43:41.046 --> 43:40.700
the progress and the investment in the

43:40.700 --> 43:42.922
commitment that the air force has to be

43:42.922 --> 43:46.720
best impacts . Hey Mr current

43:46.730 --> 43:49.090
Colonel Taylor here just first . Thanks .

43:49.100 --> 43:52.150
Thanks for the for the invitation and

43:52.150 --> 43:54.261
the opportunity to comment and thanks

43:54.261 --> 43:56.120
for your uh you know , continued

43:56.130 --> 43:58.030
interest , passion and support on

43:58.040 --> 44:00.540
helping us get through this issue . Um

44:00.550 --> 44:03.110
so I am certainly um

44:03.120 --> 44:07.000
more , I'm certainly looking

44:07.000 --> 44:09.280
to get as complete a picture sure as I

44:09.280 --> 44:11.224
can of this as we continue to work

44:11.224 --> 44:13.447
through it . I've been working with the

44:13.447 --> 44:15.447
team here um to to ensure that that

44:15.447 --> 44:17.669
happens . Um but like it was said , you

44:17.669 --> 44:19.970
know , there as we allow this circle of

44:19.970 --> 44:22.450
process to continue as we have been

44:22.450 --> 44:24.617
advised to the Department of Defense ,

44:24.617 --> 44:26.506
there's some things that that are

44:26.506 --> 44:28.728
within and some things that are outside

44:28.728 --> 44:31.270
of our control here here at Cannon Air

44:31.270 --> 44:33.480
Force Base . But I do assure you sir

44:33.480 --> 44:35.730
that we are all absolutely invested in

44:35.730 --> 44:38.410
getting clean water as we're all parts

44:38.410 --> 44:40.632
of the community here and and certainly

44:40.632 --> 44:42.132
invested in that success .

44:46.590 --> 44:49.290
Well , thank you Colonel I um I

44:49.290 --> 44:52.790
reiterate again as Mr Durkee says , I

44:52.790 --> 44:56.440
reiterate again my request for an

44:56.440 --> 45:00.260
opportunity for you to see for

45:00.260 --> 45:02.760
yourself what's going on in the

45:02.770 --> 45:06.740
community off off the base and uh

45:06.750 --> 45:09.080
we'll be waiting for a call to help

45:09.090 --> 45:11.146
orchestrate that so that you can see

45:11.146 --> 45:13.220
for yourself and decide for yourself

45:13.230 --> 45:15.650
whether the pushback or the feedback

45:15.650 --> 45:17.761
that you might give to your superiors

45:18.090 --> 45:21.510
is appropriately relating

45:21.990 --> 45:24.920
the true circumstances that are going

45:24.920 --> 45:27.880
on in this community . You know , it

45:27.880 --> 45:30.390
may be that five years from now , the

45:30.390 --> 45:34.110
entire Yeah . You know , southern half

45:34.110 --> 45:37.410
of curry county is a superfund site

45:38.690 --> 45:41.580
and that would be a tragedy for the

45:41.580 --> 45:43.747
entire community . Nobody wants that .

45:43.747 --> 45:46.220
We want to address the problem . We

45:46.220 --> 45:49.830
want to advocate for solutions and

45:49.830 --> 45:52.460
there is a separate body of authority

45:52.470 --> 45:55.540
and the Department of Defense Office of

45:55.550 --> 45:58.360
General Counsel is and the Justice

45:58.360 --> 46:00.304
Department is entirely aware of it

46:00.530 --> 46:03.940
relating to the 2020 National Defense

46:03.940 --> 46:07.200
Authorization Act provides

46:07.210 --> 46:09.830
independent authority to take action .

46:09.840 --> 46:11.729
And so far your predecessors have

46:11.980 --> 46:14.010
declined to exercise authorities

46:14.010 --> 46:16.710
granted and the consequences are

46:17.380 --> 46:19.602
threatening to the community . And this

46:19.602 --> 46:22.940
is why we're um concerned and we look

46:22.940 --> 46:24.940
forward to working with you sir and

46:24.940 --> 46:26.300
thanks very much .

46:30.780 --> 46:34.660
Okay If I may Chris or Christopher

46:34.660 --> 46:38.020
either one first of all , I'm really

46:38.020 --> 46:40.353
glad that we're getting started on this .

46:40.353 --> 46:42.464
Just testing that's very important to

46:43.380 --> 46:46.490
the area that I represent . And uh but

46:46.490 --> 46:48.379
I have a question for you on this

46:48.379 --> 46:52.260
testing , are the the names of

46:52.260 --> 46:53.927
the owners ? Are they held in

46:53.927 --> 46:56.410
confidence ? Are are they publicly

46:56.410 --> 46:59.780
disclosed from that your people ? Well ,

46:59.790 --> 47:02.520
generally , and that's why I haven't

47:02.520 --> 47:05.990
posted up the work plan yet

47:06.480 --> 47:09.210
for the er on our remedial

47:09.210 --> 47:11.377
investigation is ensuring that I'm not

47:11.377 --> 47:13.380
posting any personally identifiable

47:13.380 --> 47:16.980
information . So we we are

47:16.980 --> 47:19.036
conscious about that and making sure

47:19.036 --> 47:20.813
that we don't provide anybody's

47:20.813 --> 47:23.036
personally identifiable information out

47:23.036 --> 47:25.036
there when we should not be right .

47:25.036 --> 47:28.710
Good . And then uh just a quick follow

47:28.710 --> 47:30.770
up . How are you ? Are you just , I

47:30.780 --> 47:33.320
believe you said you were looking up

47:33.320 --> 47:36.140
the address . You're just basically

47:36.150 --> 47:39.570
knocking on the doors just to well

47:39.570 --> 47:42.990
owners , is that my understanding ? Um

47:42.990 --> 47:45.980
I believe it was I , you know , there's

47:45.980 --> 47:49.610
obviously there is a record of all the

47:49.610 --> 47:51.900
wells that are out there . And so they

47:51.900 --> 47:55.800
use the with maps and based on

47:55.800 --> 47:57.800
our other side data that we have in

47:57.800 --> 48:00.740
prior investigations , they made a

48:00.740 --> 48:02.962
determination of where they were . So ,

48:02.962 --> 48:05.810
it's some of the uh information that we

48:05.810 --> 48:09.550
have is from the public record . And so

48:09.550 --> 48:11.272
I'll also be reaching out with

48:11.272 --> 48:13.610
Shinnecock Camp that has been out there .

48:13.610 --> 48:16.030
As you're aware when the site

48:16.030 --> 48:18.197
investigation was done and making sure

48:18.197 --> 48:20.197
that we are getting in contact with

48:20.197 --> 48:23.200
everybody ? Okay . All right .

48:24.070 --> 48:26.292
That answers that question . But yeah ,

48:26.292 --> 48:29.500
it's uh , the disclosure of owners is

48:30.170 --> 48:32.490
that's a tricky one that , that I've

48:32.490 --> 48:34.657
had to deal with appreciate it . Thank

48:34.657 --> 48:36.990
you . Yes , sir .

48:45.170 --> 48:47.410
Chris we've got another question from

48:47.410 --> 48:51.240
Mr Shop Uh says you sent us landowners

48:51.240 --> 48:53.500
within a mile radius around cannon a

48:53.500 --> 48:56.370
letter in April 2021 , 1st addressing

48:56.370 --> 48:58.537
the potential risk to human health and

48:58.537 --> 49:01.450
drinking water . So , Mr shop is also

49:01.450 --> 49:04.650
addressing his one . It says lost over

49:04.650 --> 49:07.420
1000 cows because of p foss and their

49:07.420 --> 49:10.780
drinking water . Um Is there anything

49:10.780 --> 49:13.002
aside from the circular process that is

49:13.002 --> 49:15.169
being done to help mitigate or address

49:15.169 --> 49:17.680
this issue . Again , that's going to go

49:17.680 --> 49:19.680
back to , we're using the circle of

49:19.680 --> 49:21.902
process to establish those unacceptable

49:21.902 --> 49:24.760
risks . The the India is a future tool

49:24.760 --> 49:26.371
that can be used after those

49:26.371 --> 49:29.000
unacceptable risks have been determined .

49:34.170 --> 49:36.337
And from a legal perspective they also

49:36.337 --> 49:38.337
have the toxic tort claim avenue as

49:38.337 --> 49:39.890
well . Yes .

49:48.370 --> 49:50.750
Are there any other questions right now ?

49:50.750 --> 49:52.806
We don't have any other questions in

49:52.806 --> 49:54.990
the chat room . But I'm looking at the

49:55.000 --> 49:57.056
individual participants to see if we

49:57.056 --> 49:59.700
have any other hands up . So if you

49:59.700 --> 50:01.700
have a question at this time , feel

50:01.700 --> 50:03.930
free to interject or raise your hand on

50:03.930 --> 50:06.190
the zoom call and we'll get

50:07.060 --> 50:10.190
uh this is James BRC . Again , I have a

50:10.200 --> 50:13.530
more of an observation than than a

50:13.530 --> 50:17.040
question and chris if you could keep

50:17.040 --> 50:19.262
this slide up , this is actually pretty

50:19.262 --> 50:22.200
good . You know , unless you have a

50:22.200 --> 50:24.870
technical background , things like ,

50:24.880 --> 50:27.300
you know , sampling event aquifer ,

50:27.300 --> 50:29.880
test treat ability study . I mean

50:31.060 --> 50:33.940
You went through your slides in less

50:33.940 --> 50:36.690
than 10 minutes and they didn't really

50:36.700 --> 50:39.820
tell us anything about what the air

50:39.820 --> 50:42.890
force has discovered so far for the $31

50:42.890 --> 50:44.946
million dollars that they've already

50:44.946 --> 50:48.370
spent and and how that information is

50:48.370 --> 50:51.650
going to inform future actions . And I

50:51.650 --> 50:54.580
think in the , in the Air Force's

50:54.590 --> 50:57.970
desire to perhaps make these

50:57.970 --> 51:00.192
meetings , these quarterly meetings one

51:00.192 --> 51:04.150
quarterly and too short that

51:04.160 --> 51:07.030
you kind of go past . Um some of that

51:07.030 --> 51:09.290
detail . Now many of the participants

51:09.290 --> 51:12.070
in this call may not be interested in

51:12.080 --> 51:15.810
any of those technical details , but I

51:15.810 --> 51:18.610
can tell uh everybody on this call that

51:18.610 --> 51:20.860
it is these technical details that are

51:20.860 --> 51:22.980
going to cost a ton of money

51:24.760 --> 51:27.120
put up roadblocks that the Air Force is

51:27.120 --> 51:28.953
going to say , why they can't do

51:28.953 --> 51:31.176
something and it's going to make things

51:31.176 --> 51:33.342
go years and years in the future . The

51:33.342 --> 51:37.130
circus process is like Mr

51:37.130 --> 51:40.250
Bradley said it's going to take um 5 ,

51:40.260 --> 51:43.830
10 , 10 years and Mr Kern as well . So

51:43.840 --> 51:46.430
I would encourage the air force perhaps

51:46.440 --> 51:50.440
at the next meeting too . Mhm . Slow

51:50.440 --> 51:52.662
down a little bit and take a little bit

51:52.662 --> 51:55.460
of time to talk about some of the data

51:55.460 --> 51:57.870
that they've collected , where they

51:57.880 --> 52:01.570
think the contamination is , what their

52:01.580 --> 52:05.370
studies have shown already . Um You

52:05.370 --> 52:08.440
guys already have a ton of data on um

52:08.450 --> 52:10.680
what the paleo channels look like ,

52:10.690 --> 52:12.900
what the flows are like . I um

52:12.910 --> 52:15.320
communicate with you guys about ideas

52:15.320 --> 52:19.060
about how fast groundwater moves . Um I

52:19.060 --> 52:22.170
think you should be telling everybody

52:22.180 --> 52:26.000
about that . Um In the chat , I did

52:26.010 --> 52:29.370
ask a question about that more of an

52:29.370 --> 52:31.259
observation again that the circle

52:31.259 --> 52:33.750
process is a minimum requirement and it

52:33.750 --> 52:35.850
doesn't prevent preclude or prohibit

52:35.850 --> 52:38.530
the Air Force from doing more with

52:38.530 --> 52:41.370
respect to public engagement . And so

52:41.370 --> 52:43.300
all of that rolls up to my grand

52:43.300 --> 52:45.600
question , which is so what is the air

52:45.600 --> 52:48.310
Force going to do ? That's more than

52:48.310 --> 52:51.470
the minimum that circle to requires .

52:52.050 --> 52:54.500
Well and thank you for the question .

52:54.740 --> 52:56.796
And our first quarterly meeting , we

52:56.796 --> 52:58.962
did go through all of the data that we

52:58.962 --> 53:02.360
have collected so far and went through

53:02.360 --> 53:05.030
our preliminary assessment , our site

53:05.030 --> 53:07.610
investigation and put all of that out

53:07.620 --> 53:09.690
and that is available out on our

53:09.690 --> 53:12.600
website where you can review it . And

53:12.600 --> 53:14.489
then as we've moved through these

53:14.489 --> 53:16.711
quarterly meetings , were trying to put

53:16.711 --> 53:18.878
out new information and where we're at

53:18.878 --> 53:21.100
and right now we're just getting to the

53:21.100 --> 53:22.933
point where we are starting that

53:22.933 --> 53:24.767
remedial investigation and we're

53:24.767 --> 53:27.670
starting this project of the IKA pilot

53:27.670 --> 53:30.080
study . So we will be getting to the

53:30.080 --> 53:32.800
point where we're going to have more

53:32.810 --> 53:35.560
information that's actually data driven ,

53:35.560 --> 53:38.080
here's data that I can show you that

53:38.080 --> 53:40.302
we've discovered as we're going through

53:40.302 --> 53:42.640
this . So I do agree with you and we

53:42.640 --> 53:45.050
will have that information to share

53:45.050 --> 53:47.710
with the public right now , we're we've

53:47.710 --> 53:49.821
been in those planning phases , these

53:49.821 --> 53:52.080
last two meetings and so that's kind of

53:52.080 --> 53:54.420
where we're at right now , as I'm

53:54.420 --> 53:56.531
trying to make sure that everybody in

53:56.531 --> 53:58.820
the community has an awareness of where

53:58.820 --> 54:00.790
we're at and that we are pushing

54:00.790 --> 54:03.160
forward through this trying to get out

54:03.160 --> 54:05.271
there in the field because during the

54:05.271 --> 54:07.230
first meeting that we had , I had

54:07.230 --> 54:08.940
originally put out there that

54:08.950 --> 54:12.240
potentially our field work was going to

54:12.240 --> 54:15.900
commence in october of this year

54:15.910 --> 54:18.310
for our remedial investigation and

54:18.310 --> 54:20.421
right now we're about a month ahead .

54:20.421 --> 54:22.670
So we are aggressively pushing through

54:22.670 --> 54:25.400
this and with the circle process being

54:25.400 --> 54:27.567
a minimum to your question with that ,

54:27.567 --> 54:30.100
that's why we got the pilot study in

54:30.100 --> 54:32.260
there because as a minimum are

54:32.260 --> 54:34.950
requirement was to do an eca and we

54:34.950 --> 54:36.894
would have gone out there and just

54:36.894 --> 54:38.950
completed an ECA and that would have

54:38.950 --> 54:41.170
been a year or two process and then I

54:41.170 --> 54:43.059
could have gone out and hopefully

54:43.059 --> 54:45.281
secured funds at that time if they were

54:45.281 --> 54:48.110
available and then got a contract in

54:48.110 --> 54:52.110
place to then put in a full pilot , a

54:52.120 --> 54:54.330
full pump and treat system . Whereas

54:54.340 --> 54:56.860
being aggressive , we had the funds

54:56.860 --> 54:59.300
available , we got them , we were able

54:59.300 --> 55:01.610
to do this pilot study which is the

55:01.610 --> 55:03.710
small scale pump and treat system to

55:03.710 --> 55:05.932
start pulling out water that will treat

55:05.932 --> 55:07.932
it and then reinject it , give us a

55:07.932 --> 55:11.590
better , more robust eCA pilot

55:11.600 --> 55:15.320
eCA in its hole and then put us quicker

55:15.320 --> 55:17.431
into being able to go to a full scale

55:17.431 --> 55:19.450
study . So we are being extremely

55:19.450 --> 55:21.840
aggressive and how we do this and

55:21.850 --> 55:25.290
trying to look at ways that we can move

55:25.290 --> 55:27.990
this process forward as aggressively as

55:27.990 --> 55:30.157
we can through this because again , we

55:30.157 --> 55:32.323
do understand the community's concerns

55:32.323 --> 55:35.340
and again , I appreciate the feedback

55:35.350 --> 55:37.700
because there will be times where I

55:37.700 --> 55:39.870
will definitely have a lot more detail

55:39.870 --> 55:42.350
to give to the local community as to

55:42.740 --> 55:45.340
what we found in what we're discovering

55:45.340 --> 55:47.970
as we go through this process . Yeah ,

55:49.040 --> 55:51.900
and burke if I may add to that , um you

55:51.900 --> 55:54.011
know , we're also doing the quarterly

55:54.011 --> 55:56.120
public meetings , we are hosting uh

55:56.130 --> 55:58.297
kodo meetings as requested , were also

55:58.297 --> 56:00.408
publishing frequently asked questions

56:00.408 --> 56:02.630
and putting that on the Canon website .

56:02.630 --> 56:04.741
And we're building our p a outreach a

56:04.741 --> 56:06.741
lot more robust was required on the

56:06.741 --> 56:06.250
circle .

56:21.030 --> 56:23.720
Do we have any other questions from any

56:23.720 --> 56:24.942
of our participants ?

56:34.230 --> 56:36.341
Mr brookie at this time ? It looks as

56:36.341 --> 56:38.563
though we've answered all the questions

Appreciate it . Carl taylor here , just

57:05.990 --> 57:08.101
real quick , I just want to make sure

57:08.101 --> 57:10.800
we addressed uh Mr Schapp who has his

57:10.800 --> 57:12.911
hand up , I just want to make sure he

57:12.911 --> 57:14.967
had a chance to chat and also I have

57:14.967 --> 57:16.967
just a couple of comments before we

57:16.967 --> 57:19.189
close . Yes , sir , Mr Schapp , did you

57:19.189 --> 57:21.356
have another question or did we answer

57:21.356 --> 57:23.411
the questions that you have provided

57:23.411 --> 57:25.189
for us in the chat room ? I was

57:25.189 --> 57:27.244
wondering if you're gonna call . I'm

57:27.244 --> 57:29.244
sorry , sir , I was looking at your

57:29.244 --> 57:31.467
chats in the your questions in the chat

57:31.467 --> 57:33.880
room , Commander , Thank you so much

57:33.880 --> 57:37.680
for being here in Clovis and open up

57:37.680 --> 57:40.580
dialogue . I'm a little little

57:40.580 --> 57:42.880
disgruntled about the rabbi have a lot

57:42.880 --> 57:44.991
of people in the community that would

57:44.991 --> 57:47.158
like to be involved in this thing up .

57:47.230 --> 57:49.810
Yeah . So you said that you're headed

57:49.810 --> 57:53.700
to clean water and pollution ? I'm

57:53.700 --> 57:57.090
just why we need a pilot

57:57.090 --> 58:00.640
project to prove that the filters are

58:00.640 --> 58:04.240
used nation fine . Already . We all had

58:04.240 --> 58:07.650
to install filters , all our homes and

58:07.650 --> 58:10.230
all our facilities and uh we didn't ,

58:10.230 --> 58:13.190
but we had no help from the Air Force

58:13.200 --> 58:16.340
or the military at all . Um

58:17.320 --> 58:19.376
You know , I guess our biggest issue

58:19.376 --> 58:22.820
here off uh , because you guys , you

58:22.820 --> 58:24.820
know , you sent our letter to us uh

58:24.820 --> 58:28.150
April 20 2021

58:29.020 --> 58:32.140
you acknowledge the p Fossen ?

58:32.520 --> 58:36.370
Yeah . Air Force base in our property .

58:36.820 --> 58:38.940
You know , we're deal with this right

58:38.940 --> 58:41.420
now and I'm just wondering why we don't

58:41.420 --> 58:43.680
just have filters on all those

58:43.680 --> 58:47.110
contaminated with that are being used

58:47.110 --> 58:49.277
right now to feed our animals to water

58:49.277 --> 58:51.670
our crops , our homes . We've we've got

58:51.670 --> 58:54.640
to pay for all that our belts . And so

58:55.120 --> 58:57.453
we're a little bit disappointed in that .

58:57.453 --> 58:59.620
And you know , we also in the National

58:59.620 --> 59:01.870
Defense authorization act , Uh ,

59:01.880 --> 59:04.047
there's $100 million dollars there for

59:04.047 --> 59:07.180
this project to clean all this up . So

59:07.190 --> 59:09.357
I'm just a little disappointed there ,

59:09.357 --> 59:11.523
but like I said , I know that you guys

59:11.523 --> 59:13.690
are going to get to the bottom of this

59:13.690 --> 59:15.690
and we're gonna get to a resolution

59:15.690 --> 59:17.746
here someday fix this and I know you

59:17.746 --> 59:19.870
guys can do it or you right people to

59:19.880 --> 59:22.102
do it and I just want to thank you very

59:22.102 --> 59:24.150
much . Yeah .

59:25.920 --> 59:29.040
Well sir , if I may this is chris again

59:29.520 --> 59:32.180
again that goes back to why filters not

59:32.180 --> 59:33.902
on everything that goes to the

59:33.902 --> 59:36.069
authority that we have right now based

59:36.069 --> 59:38.236
on the E . P . A . S . Lifetime health

59:38.236 --> 59:40.300
advisory as we can address drinking

59:40.300 --> 59:43.210
water for human consumption . So once

59:43.210 --> 59:44.766
we go through that remedial

59:44.766 --> 59:46.766
investigation we can determine that

59:46.766 --> 59:49.350
unacceptable risk . Then that N . D . A .

59:49.360 --> 59:52.120
Can be used . But without the USDA and

59:52.120 --> 59:55.540
FDA and EPA is promulgated standards .

59:55.920 --> 59:58.680
We we can't address those right now and

59:58.680 --> 01:00:01.830
that's based on legal requirements

01:00:02.310 --> 01:00:06.310
now , as far as yes ,

01:00:06.460 --> 01:00:09.180
the FDA has already made a decision on

01:00:09.190 --> 01:00:11.910
contaminated milk . Yeah . F . S . I .

01:00:11.910 --> 01:00:15.780
S . Has already made a uh the

01:00:15.780 --> 01:00:18.090
declaration that the cows cannot be

01:00:18.090 --> 01:00:20.250
sold as beef . They've already made

01:00:20.250 --> 01:00:23.690
those . I'm not sure the FDA and the F .

01:00:23.690 --> 01:00:25.850
S . I . S . Has already made those

01:00:25.850 --> 01:00:28.400
decisions . You know , we are in

01:00:28.400 --> 01:00:31.540
stranded mode here so I'm not sure what

01:00:31.550 --> 01:00:34.730
uh you know uh you said E . P . A .

01:00:34.730 --> 01:00:36.690
Standards but they already set the

01:00:36.690 --> 01:00:40.640
standard . So . Right and I

01:00:40.650 --> 01:00:44.440
I understand and we're here and what I

01:00:44.440 --> 01:00:46.384
can do is drive this investigation

01:00:46.384 --> 01:00:49.520
forward and get the data that we need

01:00:49.530 --> 01:00:51.940
to fill in those blanks . But right now ,

01:00:51.950 --> 01:00:54.060
based on the legal guidance , docs

01:00:54.060 --> 01:00:56.170
guidance and everything that's out

01:00:56.170 --> 01:00:58.281
there , this is the mechanism that we

01:00:58.281 --> 01:01:00.392
have is we must continue through this

01:01:00.392 --> 01:01:04.290
circle process . Yes and

01:01:04.290 --> 01:01:07.370
and yeah and if I may answer that Mr

01:01:07.370 --> 01:01:09.460
scott um thank you for your comments

01:01:09.470 --> 01:01:12.550
were sensitive to the impacts that that

01:01:12.550 --> 01:01:15.100
that you have experienced . Um One of

01:01:15.100 --> 01:01:17.267
the things that I just kind of want to

01:01:17.267 --> 01:01:19.378
close the loop on from A to Z is that

01:01:19.378 --> 01:01:21.600
we talk a lot about the N . D . A . And

01:01:21.600 --> 01:01:23.711
the authorization . I just want to be

01:01:23.711 --> 01:01:23.520
clear and laid this out in layman's

01:01:23.520 --> 01:01:25.742
terms is that the N . D . A . Is really

01:01:25.742 --> 01:01:28.110
a future tool and when I say that , I

01:01:28.110 --> 01:01:30.332
mean that the prerequisite to get there

01:01:30.332 --> 01:01:32.332
to be able to determine risk and be

01:01:32.332 --> 01:01:34.554
able to meet the criteria to get out of

01:01:34.554 --> 01:01:37.140
the NBA what we want is uh

01:01:45.910 --> 01:01:48.360
I apologize guys I had an issue there .

01:01:48.360 --> 01:01:51.030
Am I am I back on ? Yes .

01:01:51.910 --> 01:01:53.966
Okay . So it kind of just to kind of

01:01:53.966 --> 01:01:56.021
recap so the N . D . A . Is gonna be

01:01:56.021 --> 01:01:58.243
our future tool and that's why we're so

01:01:58.243 --> 01:02:00.132
excited about the award of the Ri

01:02:00.132 --> 01:02:02.021
because the ri is what's going to

01:02:02.021 --> 01:02:04.188
determine nature and extent to give us

01:02:04.188 --> 01:02:03.670
our risk as well with the risk

01:02:03.670 --> 01:02:05.880
assessment following pretty soon . So

01:02:05.890 --> 01:02:08.057
so I just want to be clear on that and

01:02:08.057 --> 01:02:10.168
lay that out as kind of a roadmap and

01:02:10.168 --> 01:02:12.112
how we get to the N . D . A . As a

01:02:12.112 --> 01:02:13.890
future tool is first we have to

01:02:13.890 --> 01:02:15.946
complete the ari and be able to meet

01:02:15.946 --> 01:02:17.890
the criteria that the NBA puts out

01:02:17.890 --> 01:02:17.890
there . If we made the criteria that

01:02:17.890 --> 01:02:20.190
the NBA puts out there through our our

01:02:20.190 --> 01:02:22.246
I . And all of our contract awards .

01:02:22.246 --> 01:02:24.134
Then at that time that could be a

01:02:24.134 --> 01:02:26.301
future tool that we explore to be able

01:02:26.301 --> 01:02:28.412
to compensate or to take advantage of

01:02:28.412 --> 01:02:30.523
that endia authorization . So again I

01:02:30.523 --> 01:02:32.690
just kind of want to roadmap it the Ri

01:02:32.690 --> 01:02:34.912
the contract awards the investment that

01:02:34.912 --> 01:02:36.468
we're doing . Those are all

01:02:36.468 --> 01:02:38.523
prerequisites to get us into . Do we

01:02:38.523 --> 01:02:40.301
meet that criteria ? And can we

01:02:40.301 --> 01:02:42.523
activate this agenda at this location ?

01:02:44.600 --> 01:02:46.970
So I'm hoping I explain that in a way .

01:02:46.980 --> 01:02:49.320
Um So where we understand that it's

01:02:49.320 --> 01:02:51.153
going to be the elements and the

01:02:51.153 --> 01:02:53.153
information out of the bride that's

01:02:53.153 --> 01:02:55.320
going to help determine if we meet the

01:02:55.320 --> 01:02:57.320
criteria . Um NBA authorization .

01:03:04.200 --> 01:03:06.100
What ? Yeah

01:03:10.300 --> 01:03:12.411
and sir if that did not quite hit the

01:03:12.411 --> 01:03:14.522
mark please let me know and I can say

01:03:14.522 --> 01:03:18.470
that a different way kicking the can

01:03:18.470 --> 01:03:21.440
down the road . Oh this is this is

01:03:21.450 --> 01:03:24.630
James boc . Again I want to I don't

01:03:24.630 --> 01:03:26.880
know . Hopefully this isn't piling on

01:03:26.890 --> 01:03:28.610
but

01:03:30.900 --> 01:03:33.930
chris what you were saying was a little

01:03:33.930 --> 01:03:36.610
different from what the other chris

01:03:36.610 --> 01:03:40.330
said . Um If I understood your

01:03:40.330 --> 01:03:43.700
answer to art correctly you're you're

01:03:43.700 --> 01:03:46.680
saying that um we got to go through the

01:03:46.680 --> 01:03:49.050
Ri process and I didn't I didn't hear

01:03:49.060 --> 01:03:51.171
art so that you know I don't want you

01:03:51.171 --> 01:03:53.393
guys to investigate things are doing RI

01:03:53.393 --> 01:03:55.338
but he's saying you know there are

01:03:55.338 --> 01:03:57.504
other considerations . And I heard you

01:03:57.504 --> 01:03:59.616
say that you go through the ri to see

01:03:59.616 --> 01:04:01.616
if you meet the criteria to use the

01:04:01.616 --> 01:04:04.100
authority in the N . B . A . But what

01:04:04.100 --> 01:04:07.410
chris is saying is that until F . D . A .

01:04:07.420 --> 01:04:10.980
And E . P . A . Promulgate a standard ,

01:04:10.990 --> 01:04:14.610
you guys are limited by law

01:04:14.990 --> 01:04:18.590
to addressing drinking water

01:04:18.600 --> 01:04:20.560
impact and that's a little little

01:04:20.560 --> 01:04:22.616
different . And if you could clarify

01:04:22.616 --> 01:04:24.949
that maybe it's my own misunderstanding .

01:04:24.949 --> 01:04:27.060
Maybe it's a question of messaging by

01:04:27.060 --> 01:04:29.060
the Air Force . But I didn't really

01:04:29.060 --> 01:04:31.500
understand Thank those two answers .

01:04:31.990 --> 01:04:34.720
It's actually a combination of the two .

01:04:34.720 --> 01:04:37.240
So Art was asking about why can't we

01:04:37.240 --> 01:04:40.610
use the N . D . A . Now ? And that is

01:04:40.610 --> 01:04:42.610
those lack of promulgated standards

01:04:42.970 --> 01:04:46.790
with Mr Segura's answer with as we

01:04:46.790 --> 01:04:49.330
go through the ri to establish that

01:04:49.330 --> 01:04:51.720
criteria to meet the requirements of

01:04:51.720 --> 01:04:54.090
the N . D . A . Then we can utilize it .

01:04:54.100 --> 01:04:57.350
So it's the criteria has not been met

01:04:57.360 --> 01:05:00.300
as of yet to utilize the N . B . A .

01:05:00.310 --> 01:05:02.532
And that's what we're going through the

01:05:02.532 --> 01:05:04.532
remedial investigation right now to

01:05:04.532 --> 01:05:07.100
meet those criteria down the road this

01:05:07.110 --> 01:05:09.054
property . And I apologize for the

01:05:09.054 --> 01:05:10.999
confusion . I was just building on

01:05:10.999 --> 01:05:14.220
chris Gorky's earlier narrative . But

01:05:14.220 --> 01:05:17.460
that is correct that that is and and

01:05:17.470 --> 01:05:20.040
furthermore I believe jerky and correct

01:05:20.040 --> 01:05:21.873
me if I'm wrong but we do have a

01:05:21.873 --> 01:05:23.929
frequently asked questions that does

01:05:23.929 --> 01:05:26.151
have the N . D . A . Topic on the Canon

01:05:26.151 --> 01:05:29.140
website . Yes it goes into a lot more

01:05:29.140 --> 01:05:31.280
detail on on both of them and that is

01:05:31.280 --> 01:05:34.810
something that and we will continue to

01:05:34.820 --> 01:05:37.940
update as more information comes out .

01:05:37.950 --> 01:05:40.710
That is always available on our website

01:05:41.090 --> 01:05:43.200
there and trying to keep that up to

01:05:43.200 --> 01:05:45.650
date with the most accurate information .

01:05:45.650 --> 01:05:47.970
So another another tool that we're

01:05:47.970 --> 01:05:50.300
trying to keep out here for the public .

01:05:50.300 --> 01:05:52.300
So that way they can come out there

01:05:52.300 --> 01:05:54.920
again these meetings are recorded and

01:05:54.920 --> 01:05:57.220
will be posted at that website . Will

01:05:57.220 --> 01:05:59.980
continue to have the fact sheet up

01:05:59.980 --> 01:06:02.590
there and updated as we go through this .

01:06:02.980 --> 01:06:06.090
So we're trying to build that site out

01:06:06.090 --> 01:06:08.020
more too . So it's a tool for the

01:06:08.020 --> 01:06:10.900

opinion and to be heard .

01:06:59.780 --> 01:07:01.613
Colonel Taylor you had mentioned

01:07:01.613 --> 01:07:03.669
earlier that you would like to say a

01:07:03.669 --> 01:07:06.220
few closing remarks . Yeah thanks misty

01:07:06.230 --> 01:07:08.620
I can't seem to get my video back on

but hopefully you guys can at least

01:07:10.620 --> 01:07:12.900
hear me . Um I just want to thank

01:07:12.900 --> 01:07:16.340
everyone again for the oh hold on .

01:07:16.340 --> 01:07:18.396
Looks like my video might be working

01:07:19.680 --> 01:07:21.850
uh again for the continued interest

01:07:21.850 --> 01:07:24.900
feedback uh and and continued dialogue

01:07:24.900 --> 01:07:27.178
here . So I understand that , you know ,

01:07:27.178 --> 01:07:29.344
this is this is an emotional topic . I

01:07:29.344 --> 01:07:32.060
understand that the timelines uh that

01:07:32.060 --> 01:07:35.470
we are relegated to and that we have to

01:07:35.470 --> 01:07:38.070
abide by on the on the air Force and on

01:07:38.070 --> 01:07:40.970
the government side do not match up

01:07:40.980 --> 01:07:43.480
with the urgency with which

01:07:43.490 --> 01:07:46.730
most would would hope that that it

01:07:46.730 --> 01:07:48.990
would go , you know , with as fast as

01:07:48.990 --> 01:07:51.380
we would hope hope for it to go . Um

01:07:51.390 --> 01:07:53.740
but I do want to just reiterate that we

01:07:53.740 --> 01:07:57.130
remain committed . Um you know , I did ,

01:07:57.140 --> 01:08:00.040
I think one of the terms used was using

01:08:00.040 --> 01:08:02.340
circle as a as a road blocker is

01:08:02.340 --> 01:08:05.030
something that something to to to give

01:08:05.030 --> 01:08:07.141
a reason why we can't and I just want

01:08:07.141 --> 01:08:08.974
to reaffirm you all that that is

01:08:08.974 --> 01:08:11.170
absolutely not the case . We are not

01:08:11.170 --> 01:08:13.820
looking for ways to halt progress . In

01:08:13.820 --> 01:08:15.987
fact , we're trying to speed things up

01:08:15.987 --> 01:08:18.880
as best we can . So , um just for me to

01:08:18.880 --> 01:08:21.102
you all as you know , kind of the local

01:08:21.102 --> 01:08:23.800
based representative here , I just want

01:08:23.800 --> 01:08:26.690
to again reiterate our commitment and

01:08:26.700 --> 01:08:29.200
and and state that we are absolutely

01:08:29.200 --> 01:08:31.311
committed to working through this and

01:08:31.311 --> 01:08:33.144
getting through it as quickly as

01:08:33.144 --> 01:08:34.811
possible and understand fully

01:08:34.811 --> 01:08:36.978
acknowledge that the timelines are are

01:08:36.978 --> 01:08:39.860
not satisfactory for for many , but we

01:08:39.860 --> 01:08:42.027
continue to do our best in this effort

01:08:42.027 --> 01:08:43.027

we'll go ahead and wrap this up for

01:09:02.570 --> 01:09:04.792
this evening , please be on the lookout

01:09:04.792 --> 01:09:06.848
for an invitation to come out in mid

01:09:06.848 --> 01:09:09.181
december for the next quarterly meeting .

01:09:09.181 --> 01:09:11.292
Otherwise we will also be loading the

01:09:11.292 --> 01:09:13.514
recording of this video onto the Cannon

01:09:13.514 --> 01:09:15.626
Air Force Base website as well as the

01:09:15.626 --> 01:09:17.780
power Point presentation and the most

01:09:17.780 --> 01:09:19.669
recent frequently asked questions

01:09:19.669 --> 01:09:21.669
document . So if you have any other

01:09:21.669 --> 01:09:23.891
questions , feel free to ask them now .

01:09:23.891 --> 01:09:26.190
Otherwise this meeting is uh ma'am , I

01:09:26.190 --> 01:09:28.246
do have one more question . Yes . Mr

01:09:28.246 --> 01:09:30.370
I'm sorry . Um it's more of a

01:09:30.380 --> 01:09:34.380
suggestion . Um perhaps a week

01:09:34.380 --> 01:09:37.060
or two before the meeting , you could

01:09:37.060 --> 01:09:39.060
reach out to some of the people who

01:09:39.060 --> 01:09:41.660
have been at both meetings and ask for

01:09:41.670 --> 01:09:44.740
agenda items , not that you have to

01:09:44.750 --> 01:09:47.710
address them , but it would give

01:09:47.720 --> 01:09:49.831
everybody perhaps a little more sense

01:09:49.831 --> 01:09:52.420
of agency in terms of how the meetings

01:09:52.420 --> 01:09:55.560
are conducted . And and we could and it

01:09:55.560 --> 01:09:57.727
could give the Air Force a heads up to

01:09:57.727 --> 01:09:59.727
perhaps do a little homework . It's

01:09:59.727 --> 01:09:59.720
like , okay , we're going to get

01:09:59.720 --> 01:10:01.387
questions about this . Just a

01:10:01.387 --> 01:10:04.020

able to sample as many locations as we

01:11:51.857 --> 01:11:54.150
