    !My name is Carol Bitting, Marble Falls, Ar. ! !2015/04/11! !Comments on Permit #3540-WR-7! Thank you for allowing me to speak, I will try to stay within the 5 minutes but if I go over it won’t be for much so please allow me to finish without interruption. This meeting is about addressing our citizen concerns for the environment we live in.! . ! I am here defending my home and the anti-degradation of the waters of this state as specified in Regulation 2 and the Clean Water Act. I am not about new laws, the laws are already here. They are continually degraded though and that is the sadness of this situation as ADEQ has partnered with industry for pollution of the Buffalo River verses the millions of citizens that are financially supporting the agency to protect our !resources. ! The area I live in is karst, it is downstream of the proposed permit and the water I drink comes from this source. I am also a field technician for Dr Brahana’s (KHBNR) study and other ongoing study’s of water quality related to the area surrounding the spreading fields of C&H Hog Farms. We have documented the fast transport of groundwater emerging into springs, streams and wells in nearly all directions of the C&H spreading !fields and also the continual increase of the decline of water quality in Big Creek. ! There are 34 known caves downstream of the EC Campbell farm spreading fields. The above fields are highly erodible allowing nutrients, such as hog waste to pass quickly into the groundwater, caves and streams.

  • Part C Webster L. Hubbell's Billing Practices and Tax Filings
    PART C WEBSTER L. HUBBELL'S BILLING PRACTICES AND TAX FILINGS I. INTRODUCTION Shortly after their former partner Webster L. Hubbell became Associate Attorney General of the United States in January 1993, Rose Law Firm members in Little Rock found irregularities in Hubbell's billings for 1989-92. In March 1994, regulatory Independent Counsel Robert Fiske, received information that Hubbell may have violated federal criminal laws through his billing activities. Mr. Fiske then opened a criminal investigation. In the wake of these inquiries, Hubbell announced his resignation as the Associate Attorney General on March 14, 1994, saying this would allow him to settle the matter. Upon his appointment in August 1994, Independent Counsel Starr continued the investigation already started by Mr. Fiske. This resulted in Hubbell pleading guilty to one felony count of mail fraud and one felony count of tax evasion in December 1994, admitting that he defrauded his former partners and clients out of at least $394,000.1 On June 28, 1995, Judge George Howard sentenced Hubbell to twenty-one months' imprisonment.2 Sometime after Hubbell's sentencing, the Independent Counsel learned that a meeting had been held at the White House the day before Hubbell announced his resignation, where Hubbell's problems and resignation were discussed. Senior White House officials, including the President, 1 Plea Agreement, United States v. Webster Lee Hubbell, No. 94-241 (E.D. Ark. Dec. 6, 1994). Hubbell's attorney later agreed that Hubbell "obtained $482,410.83 by fraudulent means from the Rose Law Firm and its clients." Pre-sentence Investigation Report (Final Draft), United States v.
