About Us | ©2011 Salt & Pepper Consulting  Foxenwood 3 Basin: A love story! (Continued from Page 1) Before any action can be taken to rescue F3B, the case must be studied from every angle and elevation. There is “revegetation” to consider, a wildlife study, an engineering analysis, impact analysis, mitigation measures and don’t forget “residual impacts.” No burly engineer is going to touch the county’s beloved with a cold steel shovel until an army of county-paid experts has weighed in. No expense is too great when the tender strings of love are plucked. Or could it be the Golden Goose that’s getting plucked? If this one insignificant mud hole is costing us many thousands of dollars in studies and reports, imagine what real projects are costing. Jed Clampett would laugh us to scorn if he could see how we fuss over a stagnant cement pond. Then he would grab his shovel and wrench and have the thing fixed before supper. This map, created by Santa Barbara County, shows where Foxenwood 3 Basin is located (code name “Section 1”). The Foxhole could easily have come up with a much nicer map for free (or for the nominal price of a pack of crayons), but since we (and you) have paid handsomely for this drawing, let's use it, by golly. In a bit of whimsy, the fine print under the map of this one-page “document” says, “Santa Barbara County shall not be liable for any errors, omissions or damages that result from inappropriate use of this document.” So  be sure you don’t use this to locate that underground natural gas pipeline! Bonus question: The dashed line indicates where a “creek” is drawn on the original map. Can anyone name it, or actually locate it in the real world? Does it really flow right under some Foxenwood homes?!
