Mr Dillon said: "the de-icing collection system could be made a part of the agreement but was not included at the time because it is part of a permit agreement with the Department of Environmental Management. He said under the terms of the permit, RIAC would discontinue its practice of vacuuming the de-icing fluid that is glycol and it would flow into a system that would hold the runoff and process it before it is disposed of in the Warwick sewer system. Under the permit, RIAC is to have 30 percent of the system designed by next week and fully designed by the end of next year. Construction is to take place in 2014 and it is to be fully operational by 2015."

How long does it take to design this system? This sounds like a big stall to me. RIAC does not have the money to build the pollution control plant without putting the arm on the airlines -- who should be paying by the way. This plant must be put into the funding and construction phase before any agreement on the expansion is put in place with the city.

That RIAC can't complete the plans for it for 13 more months is totally unacceptable. RIAC should fire the current design firm if it cannot turn the design around in a month's time.
