Attorney Stearns said that there were no site distance problems. The changes that were made did not affect the site distances.
Mr. Conner asked if there was a letter or some certification that the site distances were not changed.
Attorney Stearns replied that the petitioner could obtain a letter from the Traffic Engineer stating the site distance had not changed.
