Mr. Hodge explained that in November 1994, the Board

assured by federal and state agencies that CCBP was a safe fill.
However, because of their concern, staff is recommending as
follows: (1) that the County monitor Bush Wells 1,2 and 3 on a
semiannual or annual basis; (2) that if the wells become
contaminated from the CCPB fill material, the County will act
jointly with the Town to provide the Town and east County with
water; and (3) that the generator (American Electric Power) and
the provider (KBK Enterprises, Inc) of the fill material and the
property owner (Gerald W. Fairchild) will be held responsible for
all costs connected with the County's arrangement to provide
water and the restoration of the water from the Bush wells to its
former quality or the drilling of new wells, and that the County
join with the Town in seeking to recover all monetary losses,
include any differential in rates, from the responsible parties.
Supervisor Eddy announced that he has worked with the
architect on this project and would abstain from discussion and a
vote on this issue. Chairman Johnson requested that a letter
from him be sent to all the parties advising them of this action.
