Councilman Hershner suggested Mobil Oil Company and Bureau of Land Management be . advised of the request in view of specific reference to them in the resolution brought to the Council for consideration. It was understood copies of the resolu-' tion would be distributed to interested parties prior to the October 24 Council . meeting. : Councilman Williams said the Council might want to consider precedent in requiring, l . impact statements wi th regard to roads, test holes, mud pumping since they would .\ be significant activities in any type of development, not just oil drilling. Mr. Mohr answered that the Council is not determining whether to ask for a state- ment, but encouraging DEQ in its efforts. Mrs. Beal said the Council is being asked to adopt this statement in support of the DEQ Director's efforts to enforce Federal and State laws. It would require only consideration of terrain, water , sheds, etc., for significant impact report prior to start of any drilling. Councilman Bradsh~w asked if an~ thought has been given to control should oil be found in view of drastic effect on headwaters, fishing, quality of water in this :general area. Mr. Dotten replied that the purpose of requiring the statement before drilling begins was to ensure that no damage would result. Further conversation took place with regard to need for individual impact state- :ment when an overall statement might serve, and whether i twould b~ proper require- ment without knowing what a general statement would contain. Mr. Mohr suggested 'deletion of reference to Mobil Oil Company and BLM in the statement. Mr. Dotten said that would be agreeable, but he would not like a statement so general that ~ .it would not address itself to test drilling in the Willamette Valley. . Manager suggested rewording the statement to make it read test dri lling "coul d" .constitute significant activity rather than "would," and to support the acitivities of the DEQ Director without insisting that Federal agencies obey Federal law. :Council members felt this would be satisfactory, and Mr. Dotten agreed. f I ~ Mrs. Beal llOved seconded by Mrs. Campbell to bring the res 01 ution wi th the sug- .gesteq rewording for Council consideration at the October 24 meedng. Motion carried unanimously.
