. >> my name is richard mead. i'm here to ask, again, that a full, clear look be taken at the maritime option. yesterday or the day before, there was a hearing. an individual pointed out that san francisco is surrounded on three sides by water. that does not mean that you should stick out the airport. the maritime option is feasible. it is a good option. there was nothing in the report about the marine highway and the federal funds that are available. no one has talked to us about our barge supplement and how we make it work in the press of the northwest. right next door at pier 96, we have an aggregate auction. we sat down with them and made the numbers work so that could come together. there was a lot of talk about the 75% recycled percentage that recology is currently doing. that number will not go down if you ship by barge. you can access five landfills within 10 miles of the bay. the one thing that the current plan has in common is recology from the start to the finish. i do not blame recology for doing that.
