At a regular meeting of the Site Specific Advisory Board (SSAB) held September 16, 1999, the board identified comments on the PGDP’s draft Environmental Assessment of the potential impacts from construction and operation of the Vortec Corporation Cyclone Melting System technology. With thirteen regular members present, the board approved by consensus in favor of this recommendation. RECOMMENDATION: The board members present at the September 16, 1999, SSAB meeting recommends that the Department of Energy not use a Finding of No Significant Impact to proceed with the Vortec project’s 30-day pilot test. Instead, the board proposes an Environmental Impact Statement that will include cumulative impacts from other sources.
