I can support the need for more time, and also for staff to finalize the
analysis/summary of all comments. That is the basic requirement. We don't'
want to send a message that we disregard some comments and value others. by
ignoring any comment, regardless of its content. 

 

I am traveling next week, and will be on the West Coast. I can do a call at
9:30 a.m. EST/6:30 a.m. my time in California on Tuesday or Wednesday.

 

I've copied the senior policy staff as well, since we are discussing changes
in timing and noting the importance of staff fulfilling the full analysis,
summary of comments received.

 

Marilyn Cade, BC representative to the TF.

I agree with Kathy's proposal and would associate myself with David and
Tony's postings as well.  At a minimum another week would provide time for
the staff to fairly and objectively summarize all the comments received,
which has not been done in the draft sent just 24 hours before our scheduled
call.  I also find the staff's dismissive characterization of many of  the
comments opposing Formulation #1 entirely inappropriate.  If the report were
to move forward in this form it would send the clear message that
participation in the public comment process is a waste of time.

I would like to propose we move the meeting until next Wednesday.  I think
the report deserves to be closely reviewed and the comments discussed.  With
so many comments, and so much new text, we all need some time to do our
work.

With thanks to Maria and Glen for the report,
Kathy
