Today Jill and I went to the stormwater authority meeting.
This was on the Agenda:
11. Discuss NDEP issues and take action as deemed appropriate.
Sounds harmless right?
It turns out this is a direct result of Robert Hinderliter and Jim Gamble's visit to Las Vegas.
Great BMPs that were not even in consideration of being changed for washers is now up on the block for revisions based on the information given by Robert Hinderliter to the regulators.
We will be working with them for sensible regulations.
The problem is they already had sensible regulations that have worked to keep our city within NPDES permit specs for years now.
Robert Hinderliter, Jim Gamble, Michael Hinderliter and the rest of the PWNA brought forth the Ft Worth BMPs, with the addition of their own "hot water is an emulsifier and the same as soap" false claim and convinced the regulators that our BMPs need to be changed.
Meanwhile Ft Worth has gotten rid of the horrible and confusing bmps that Robert throws around as an example and replaced it with a simple document of a few pages that is remarkably similar to the one Las Vegas already has!!!!

This is going to cost us time and money to fix this problem and once again convince the local regulators that we are CLEANERS and not POLLUTERS.
We will be taking a tally of the income lost and the time we have to invest in this endeavor and in the end the PWNA will be held responsible.
This is a call to all contractors in Houston, Atlanta, Charlotte and any other city where Robert has gone in and interfered to contact me at tonyshelton@sonitx.com and let me know about what losses you have incurred.
We already know that about 8 out of the ten contractors listed in Atlanta as "environmental" contractors by the city are out of business. One has already reported losses of $100,000 plus. Any of the information that has been collected from your city will be compared to your story for inclusion in this action.
Email me with your story and I will pass it on to the attorney for consideration.
The parties that can be proven to have caused this in Las Vegas are the PWNA and its Board of Directors personally, Robert Hinderliter, Jim Gamble, John Tornebene, Jim Cooney, and Nigel Griffith and Michael Hinderliter via their communication with the regulators.
There may be others but these are known to be personally involved and personally responsible.
Meanwhile Jill and I will be showing the authorities what we, as real contractors, not faux contractors or vendors, do in our line of work to keep the environment clean. We will be showing our methods and the character that most of us share when dealing with our environment.
Hopefully the horrible videos they sent the regulators of Jim Gamble rinsing a garage with nasty dirty water from a fire hydrant that is meant only for fighting fires will not result in a perception that we all clean that way.
