[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a meeting tonight (Nov 16th) about the pool at 630PM at Hearst ES - as usual DPR/DGS did a terrible job of getting out advance notice about the meeting.[/quote]

How are the environmental studies coming along?  Pretty much every group (ANCs, civic groups) have asked for analysis to be conducted, but just crickets so far.  Hydrology is becoming a big issue along Connecticut Avenue as DDOT has concluded that the drainage pipes that carry run off from up the hill are inadequate and resulting in flooding on the avenue, alleys and sidewalks down the hill.  So it's important that DPR/DGS study the alternatives at Hearst, the impact of additional hardscape and get it right.

The issues in Cleveland Park have nothing to do with hydrology and run off at Hearst. The fact is, if they do the renovation right, most of the water will stay on site or be properly directed to the Hazen tributary. That is what the DOEE requirements would mandate.[/quote]

When will DGS and DOEE do the studies, that the various ANCs have requested?  [/quote]
