Address by Mr. Louis Breimhurst, Chief Administrative <br />Officer of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission: At <br />the request of the Chairman, Mr. Breimhurst was introduced by <br />Mr. LeFevere. Mr. Breimhurst has served with the Environmental <br />Protection Agency, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, <br />as assistant CEO of the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission <br />and recently has been appointed to and has assumed the <br />responsibilities of MWCC's chief administrative officer. <br />Mr. Breimhurst expressed appreciation for having the oppor- <br />tunity to communicate with a number of public officials on <br />the matter of the activities of the MWCC. He expressed <br />satisfaction with the Management Study of MWCC that has been <br />completed and took note of the fact that Mr. Spore, as a <br />representative of the SRA, had served on the task force <br />which had defined the Management Study and had supervised <br />and monitored its progress. He indicated that an effort is <br />being made and will continue to be made to implement the <br />recommendations of the Management Study. In that connection <br />he indicated that one matter requiring further study is the <br />rate structure of MWCC. He reported that a special task <br />force is being created to define and monitor the rate study <br />and that two representatives of the SRA have been invited to <br />participate. (Chairman Roeck has responded to this request <br />from t4WCC and has appointed board members DeGhetto and <br />Honchell as SRA's representatives on the Rate Study Committee.) <br />Mr. Breimhurst indicated that Peter Meintsma, chairman of <br />the MWCC, has identified certain priorities in responding to <br />the recommendations of the Management Study. <br />(1) There should be certain changes in the organizational <br />structure of the MWCC. Such changes are now under active <br />consideration. Mr. Breimhurst noted that among other things <br />the MWCC now has a new chairman, a new chief administrative <br />officer and a new chief deputy administrative officer. He <br />indicated that other changes in the administrative structure <br />are likely to occur. <br />-3- <br />
