EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S REPORT a. Compliance and Operational Status Report (ITEM F2a) First Quarter Report — Plant is in full compliance with regulatory requirements. b. Biosolids Pelletization Project (ITEM F2b) On November 9, 2010 we were notified that the arbitration panel ruled in favor of NEFCO for the amount of $1,335,871. In addition, the arbitration panel has agreed to hear NEFCO's claim for attorney's fees and claims preparation costs. Due to the fact the award was over $500,000 the judgment is non-binding. Itis estimated the fee claim and attorney's costs on both sides (NEFCO & SWA) is approximately $2.5 to 3.0 million dollars. At this point, it appears SWA is going to attempt to settle the claim with NEFCO. The Board's portion of the responsibility ranges from 18 to 21 percent of the total claim. The range is dependent upon East Central Regional's inclusion into the Pelletization Facility. C. Odor Complaint Log (November 1, 2010 through January 10, 2011) (ITEM F2c) This was a very good quarter, there were no odor complaints. There were only five odor complaints for the entire calendar year of 2010. d. Deep Injection Well Permit (ITEM F2d) On Wednesday, January 12, 2011 the Draft Operational Permit was issued to the Board. A Public Notice of the Intent to Issue must be published in a local newspaper with a public meeting to occur 30 days after publication. The date and time for the meeting has yet to be established. The meeting will be held in the conference room of South Central Regional.
