The City is committed to managing its biosolids in an environmentally sound, socially acceptable, and cost-effective manner. We are constantly reviewing the program and incorporating continual improvements. The City has been demonstrating the Terminal Island Renewable Energy project for over three years. The existing permit is set to expire November 2011 and the City has submitted a new permit application to the U. S. EPA to continue demonstrating the project. As part of the new permit application we are requesting some project changes. We have completed a draft subsequent negative declaration to address the changes and are requesting your comments.
