MANAGER'S REPORT
MEETING DATES: Mr. Mashburn reported he had spoken this afternoon with Ms. Marge Howell,
Public Information Officer for the Hazardous Waste Commission. She told him the meeting on July 25
with Thermalkim has been cancelled. The meeting on July 26th at National Guard Armory is still on,
from 7:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m. The Hazardous Waste Commission has arranged for loud speakers on
outside of facility. The site review is July 30,1990, 10:00 a.m., Raleigh.
FLYING FLAG UPSIDE DOWN: The RICCE Organization has requested the federal flag be flown upside
down in a sign of distress. Mr. Mashburn recommended flying the N. C. flag upside down until the
hazardous waste matter is settled, and recommended that the U. S. flag should not be flown upside
down because of the implication of distress, especially applicable during war time. Mr. Mashburn
mentioned flying a green banner below the flag. Mr. Bryan thought it would be more of an impact if
everyone did the same thing. Commissioner Hedrick thought all should be in unison and legal. It
was the consensus of the board that the North Carolina flag should be flown upside down and check
with the City to be in unison on other banners.
