Old Business

Chairman John Christiansen opened the floor for discussion on starting with the remodeling of the Basement. John stated that the Commissioners had the bids for material to do the remodeling. John gave a tourer of the basement to explain the project to the group and explain what needed to be done.

There was a descuession on the replacement of materials used on Hazmat incidents and what and who to charge the shipping agency for those materials. In the Agreement with the Fire Departments the LEPC purchased the Foam and the Fire Departments were to see that they bill the user for replacement of the Foam and to maintain the enductors.

David Switzner made a motion that the price to bill for the foam be the Cost per single unit of the foam plus the cost for shipping and handling plus 50%. The Foam replacement must be have the same specifications as the foam supplied by the LEPC. Al Davis seconded the motion and all approved.

Don Johnson made a motion to Bill the Sac-Osage Fire Department for foam that was used in an hazmat spill involving an LP Gas truck overturned at or near the Junction of highways 82 & WW on or about the first week of February 2003 as the Sac-Osage Fire Department has yet failed to bill for replacement.
