MINUTES

April 19,2010

Minutes:  The minutes for March 15, 2010 were approved

Treasurer's Report:  The treasurer's report was approved.  We discussed having an audit.  Kim will file the 990 in May.

Old Business:

      We will have pencils, fliers and brochures for the Earth Day Celebration in Anderson.

      There was discussion about the new sewage treatment plant proposed by the Town of Edgewood.  Alan wanted the group to write a letter  voicing an opinion against the proposed treatment plant.  The general consensus was that the WRW should only comment on  issues as they related to water quality and not voice an opinion on the political aspects of issues.  The discussion also centered on the lack of information.  The WRW could have a presence at the next BZA meeting and ask about gaining more information .  The next county BZA meeting is scheduled for April 27th, 2010 at 9AM.

      There was discussion about asking Tom Brewer to speak at our next meeting.  He is from the Anderson Water Department.  We might ask him to speak on the state of the crumbling infrastructure and other issues.  We could also ask about the bio-solids program.

      Kim suggested creating a Facebook page to use for notices of events.  This would increase the WRW's ability to link electronically.

      Holly Chaille is invited to speak at the June 21, 2010 meeting.

      Crist talked about the  MS4 statewide annual program hosted by the City of Anderson on April 22, 2010.  It will be held at the Paramount Theater and will be an all day affair.  The cost is $35/person and includes meals and refreshments.

      Sheryl made a motion to reimburse anyone who would like to attend the MS4 state wide annual meeting.  The motion was seconded and passed.

      Sheryl wanted to plan a clean-up of Shadyside Park.

New Business:  There was no new business discussed.

A motion was made, seconded and approved to adjourn.
