i . t <br />.215 <br />Conversation temporarily interrupted at end of tape. <br />216 <br />Littrell: Unfortunately, the trouble with a siphon is that you have to have an air brake and <br />217 <br />the waste crosses the river at the siphon, so it has to be open to the air there. So, we're <br />218 <br />capturing that turbulent air there and trying to scrub it through. <br />Riley: So is the odor going to be less than it is now? <br />Littrell: Much less, hopefully. You won't notice it. Might be a little musty like a typical <br />221 <br />mulch odor you'd notice after you'd been working in it a little bit anyway. When you first <br />222 <br />encounter it, you'll recognize it. <br />223 <br />Klusczinski: Other questions? <br />224 <br />Patrick: One, well just a couple of quickies. Is Symbiont the developer of this technology? <br />225 <br />Carnahan: No. <br />226 <br />Patrick: How long has this technology been extent? <br />227 <br />Carnahan: It's been utilized, to my understanding for that last 15 -20 years. <br />228 <br />Patrick: Is it just plain old mulch or is there an amendment added to the mulch? <br />229 <br />Carnahan: Plain mulch. Which can be drawn from the city's inventory, which has it's <br />230 <br />advantages. <br />231 <br />Patrick: Great. That's all I've got. <br />232 <br />Sassano: Does it produce heat? <br />233 <br />Carnahan: Not an appreciable amount. <br />234 <br />Littrell: Not enough to use. <br />235 <br />Sassano: You know, this doesn't address the duck pond. <br />236 <br />Riley: Too had this didn't come in sooner, it looks very nice. <br />237 <br />Chase: So there's no particular kind of mulch that you have to have, just whatever is <br />238 <br />available? <br />239 <br />Carnahan: What the city has will be suff cient. <br />240 <br />Littrell: It's not the mulch that's so important, it's the organisms that grow in it. Those <br />241 <br />things like a different menu than we'd like. Those gases coming through there are <br />242 <br />appealing to them. <br />Riley: Essentially it should cost you less to run this? <br />Littrell: Oh yes, and hopefully the Parks Department won't hold us up too badly for the few <br />posies that we're putting in from the greenhouse. <br />246 <br />Chase: Good solution to a problem. <br />247 <br />Klusczinski: Any other questions?
