Written comments were received from HMT Technology Corporation, and <br /> Best Pots, I c., to which I made the following findings: <br /> Comment 1: Concern was expressed about the City of Eugene only using <br /> flow s an indicator of an industry's ability to absorb penalty cost. Industries that <br /> prod ce large volumes of wastewater may or may not have large profit margins and <br /> the s verity of the penalties may result in business failure. It does not necessarily <br /> folio that large producers of wastewater present the greatest risk to the City <br /> treat ent system. <br /> Administrati a Order - 1 ~oi22is~ <br /> <br />
