Zoe Ann and David:
Actually, we did attend through our consultant for the Geothermal Group, two (2) of the CAC meetings. At this time, the
comments pertaining to the functionality of CAC, as perceived by the consultant ..was they were not prepared to
address specific issues, due to lack of understanding/knowledge.
The implementation of the technologies that The Resort has specified for the property speaks for itself . The savings of
GHG emissions is in the process of being calculated.
I had requested that the ESA (Peer Review) provide their interpretation of the technologies. Awaiting these comments.

Garth,
With regard to the draft GHG report, condition #cc states:
"Statesman Corporation shall collaborate with the Climate Action Committee (CAC) to calculate greenhouse gas
emissions (GHGs) associated with the MPR, and identify techniques to mitigate such emissions through
sequestration and/or other acceptable methods."
As discussed with Zoe Ann in her email of August 5 2010 (attached), the real issue is to calculate the GHG
emissions associated with the MPR and identify techniques to reduce or mitigate them. Since coordination with
the CAC is not necessary, using the attached guidance and emissions worksheet provided by Jeff Caton to
calculate or estimate the carbon footprint (GHG emissions) for each alternative and then listing the measures or
techniques to reduce those footprints is all that is needed. Please identify who authored the report and include
references to how the GHG were calculated. Keep in mind that this report will be scrutinized and therefore
must be based on "best available science" while omitting information that does not support that science.

Hi David Wayne,
Garth asked me to forward the attached draft. This is our initial draft for condition 63(cc). Looking forward to
your comments and to seeing you Thursday.
Thank You,
