One of the best resources available to us that would be able to answer most of those questions is coming to Pocatello/Chubbuck at 1:00 p.m. on May 16th and, 7:00 p.m. on May 17th, 2000 for the purpose of answering questions that we may have. PWD Smfirt suggested the Council and Mayor be able to attend one of the town hall meetings. The decision whether or not to recategorize this aquifer as a "sensitive resource" together with the regulations that the local agencies would develop has far reaching effects, and it will be a decision that first needs to be made by local elect officials.
