Extending just the ramp, the dock, both, etc. The depths just don't increase enough to make it cost effective, and no matter what we do, they'll need float stops. So, they've decided to go with the plan as submitted, knowing that the float stops will be a requirement. This way, no additional construction or permitting, either. I say just so you know that we looked into it, but won't be submitting any new information for the August 20th hearing. I should have something for Misra for you; it's in the works but not there yet. I will also be at the Dininno meeting tomorrow at 2:00; DownCape has approved me to be there to see what options we might have. I do have some, "out of the box" (no surprise there), so we'll see how it goes. Mark Burgess Shorefront Consulting B.S.

But, the license is expiring 3 years from now anyway, so we're looking into extending the ramp and/dock by some combination, and something like 20 feet maybe. We are also looking to see if angling it somewhat to the south gives us more water. We have a site meeting on Thursday afternoon. So, we won't have a revised plan to you in time for the next meeting. Therefore, can you please continue this one until August 20, and we should be able to figure out how much we want to extend the dock, and get a revised plan. The goal is to get the deepest water with the least amount of distance. Do you think angling it a bit will be an issue? That would be helpful for planning. Please confirm acceptance of the continuance, and let us know if you think angling the dock (a little) is an issue. Thank you very much. -- Mark Burgess Shorefront Consulting B.S.
