| Carol Frate | Nothing to present but suggests these topics:
Use of processing waste water (from wineries, canneries, etc.) for crop production. What do we need to look for in that water? What kind of BOD do they tend to have? Ideas on crops that can utilize that water? Perhaps Stu Pettygrove and Terry Prichard have done some work with these types of waste waters. |

| Stuart Pettygrove | I will come to the workgroup meeting -- still not sure whether all or only part, as field work may interfere. I would like to give a brief report on a potential new problem Blake Sanden and I are working on. Title would be "Land Application of Yeast Wastewater". I need about 10-15 minutes. |
