Steve:
It seems that there's some confusion with DEP about your proposed
policy.
Have you reached out to Bob Avaltroni since his e-mail (the one we
interpreted differently; I thinking he was unaware of the policy
proposal
and you thinking he was unaware ,of the agency claims)?
It seems like FEMA project staff are operating on the assumption that
this
policy is already in place (see Walter's BOE e-mail you forwarded to
me),
however, I we need to clarify the situation with DEP, and I still need
to
hear back from the Law department as well.
