Dear Friends of Honey Creek,

Last week a few people received notices that Silesia had applied for a new 
Texas Land Application Permit (TLAP) for Honey Creek Ranch. You can read the 
notice 
here.
  You can see the Affected Landowner Map 
here
 and the Groundwater Quality Report 
here.
 You can see more information 
here
 under "Honey Creek Waste Water Permit".

This means that the clock starts over as this is an application for a new 
permit.  We all need to respond with comments and request a public meeting for 
Proposed Permit # WQ0015835001

You may also request a contested case hearing.  To do so, you must include your 
name, address, applicants name (Silesia Properties LP) and Proposed Permit # 
WQ0015835001, the location and distance of your property/activities relative to 
the proposed facility, a specific description of how you would be adversely 
affected by the facility in a way not common to the general public, a list of 
all disputed issues of the fact that you submit during the comment period, and 
the statement "I request a contested case hearing".

If a contested case hearing is granted, the subject of the hearing will be 
limited to disputed issues of fact or mixed questions of fact and law related 
to relevant and material water quality concerns submitted during the comment 
period. So, make sure that all your concerns are stated in this communication.

You may submit your comments 
on-line
 
(https://www14.tceq.texas.gov/epic/eComment)
 by entering WQ0015835. Or you can mail comments to TCEQ Office of the Chief 
Clerk, MC-105, PO Box 13087, Austin, Texas 78711-3087.

TCEQ will hold a public meeting if the Executive Director determines that there 
is a significant degree of public interest in the application or if the 
requested by a local legislator. Requests to Representative 
Beidermann,
 Senator 
Campbell,
 and Comal County 
Commissioners
 asking them to contact TCEQ to request a public meeting would be helpful.

We had a great meeting at the Mammen Public Library on December 4th.  In 
addition to the new permit, we discussed reports that bull dozers began 
clearing on the site, in violation of the City of Bulverde's Tree ordinance.

*  Fundraising: To date $23,555 has been raised assuming we meet the $15,000 
match. We still need to raise $7,455 to secure the full match.

Brie Jameson and Joyce Moore will work on fundraiser at Honey Creek Cave.  This 
would be a high dollar ticket event.  (Thank you, Joyce and Brie!)

Julie Whittaker: reported on bids for SAVE HONEY CREEK signs and Facebook info 
with block font in med blue.

Lone Star Reprographics: 4'x8' fence signs in Coroplast. $112 each, 50 Yard 
signs  $10.50 each, stakes $1.50 each and Fast Signs: 4'x8' banner with 
grommets $145.13 each, 50 Yard signs with stakes  $14.80 each. It was agreed 
that we would get the best bang for the buck by ordering four 4' x 8' fence 
signs to display at strategic locations.

Thanks to all of you for your efforts to date.  Our next meeting will be at 
6:00 p.m. on Tuesd
