1 Are there any further questions or corotnents? 



2 Do you want to say anything? 



3 MR. GLUDE: Thank you very much for your 



4 comments. I certainly agree with you. We have seen the 



5 extremely serious pollution in Lake Erie, some other 



6 places, places in the world that we never even think of 



7 as being serious. I had a discussion with the Swiss 



g consulate recently, and even in Switzerland, we think of 



9 the Alps as being free and pure, free from pollution, 



10 yet even there there are extremely serious problems in 



IX pollution. 1 think we should recognize the serious 



12 problems that can develop in the future. 



13 Those of us who have seen the East Coast 



14 recognize it. We arc proud of the clean water in Puget 



15 Sound and, of course, we would like to keep it that way. 



16 CHAIRf'IAN 3TE1N: Right. 



17 Let me go off the record a second. 



18 (Off the record.) 



19 CHAIRMAN ST)' IN: Now, I recognize this is 



20 not going to be easy. I recognize that sometines v.lien 



21 we speak of treicendous expenditures of funds and we talk 



22 ;ibout hundreds of millions of dollars and thosp are 



23 ' public expenditures of funds, you have one thing, but 1 



24 also recognize when we spe^V; in terms of million;' of 



25 dollars and t^.■•^e may be private funl- or industrial funds
