After second paragraph, 'the',heading-- B. Natural: B. ,After third paragraph, this new paragraph: Mention is made that the City could ..expedite the resolution of this problem (environmental questions con- cerning air pollution and water temperature caused by the University's physical plant) by the passage of an air quality ordinance..." The City does have an air quality ordinance in its Code. As I -IUD points out, the City is powerless to enforce the ordinance if it is violated by'a state institution. We do note however, that the University has tried in the past and we assume that it will continue to seek ,remedies to the negative environmental impact caused by the P0LMe,e plant. (28-54) II. Add to page 8 a new last paragraph as follows: In conclusion..„ Thereare, however, some general comments which should not be, left unsaid'.; The statement suffers greatly from a lack of reference to source material or persons to substantiate certain demonstrativestatements.: As noted above, too much attention was'devoted'to the ,salvation and restoration of the College Block Building: Little was said, and indeed, we submit, little can be said about the environmental impact on downtown Iowa City through the preservations of this 40' X 100' building: Finally the statement is weak and perhaps this is an inherent weakness of any environmental impact statement, because it dwells on the myriad of components of this redevelopment project, to the detriment, if not exclusion,of the environ- mental effects of the,finished product.' The statement is a checklist of items environtmental!, many of which alone could be the'subject of an environmental' impact statement. To attempt to address ourselves comprehensively and totally to each one of the parts will work to the detriment of the whole.
