Wahlers to appeal to Bureau to stay in sewer program
Lompoc City Administrator Gene Wahlers travels to Washington to urge the Bureau of Prisons to join the regional wastewater project. He will meet a directorate aide, seek funding or a two to three year plan, and avert delays after the State Board set a February decision date. If the FCI withdraws, alternatives include a separate plant and higher costs for others.

Kenneth D. Wicks will meet Bob Kimball of the State Department of Public Health to craft a plan that may allow a second go before the State Health Planning Council.
