I thank the witnesses for their attending and for their contributions. Did the EPA test the NCC or any of the other licensed facilities in the vicinity for elements or compounds not specified or covered by their licences? In particular, I am looking to see if tests for the presence of hydrogen sulfide and the associated compounds that may be expected in a wastewater treatment plant that has changed its biological status from aerobic to anaerobic.
