Billie Sumrall stated the proposed amendments would conditionally allow "remote uses" in
Agricultural Resource Lands. A remote use is defined in NTI's application as "a use of land that
does not require urban services and that is best suited to remote locations, away from urban areas
and not limited to the use of explosives in manufacturing". NTI's proposed use, the use of
explosives to bond dissimilar materials in the manufacture of products for use in aerospace,
marine, and other hostile environments, is much better suited to remote locations such as
Agricultural Resource lands than places of human habitation, such as urban areas and other
residential areas, NTI would lie to relocate its explosive bonding operation from Clallam County
to Grant County, The site location is non-specific. The proposal is to change the text in the
Comprehensive Plan to allow such use conditionally in the Agricultural zoning districts of Grant
County.
