Thank you for your consideration_ <br /> I Sincerely, <br /> I ---c)l~-<V"Y-\ 3&, 'LJ ~ <br /> Ronald G_ Williams <br /> I Chair, Twin Cities Wetland Committee, Sierra Club <br /> cc: Beverly Apilkowski <br /> I Dale Hicks <br /> Paul Malone <br /> Susan Keirn <br /> I <br /> I- <br /> I <br /> @ 1313 Fifth Street SE, Suite #323 .
