WATER DELIVERY RATE FOR 1983
A discussion ensued regarding the water delivery rate for this year.
Larry Rowe, East Valley Water District General Manager, stated the East
Valley Water District does intend to repair their facilities in order
to take their water for spreading by the Conservation District. The
District will be prepared to take the water entitled to them. In the
event th flows are down, the District would reduce their take to enable
the growers to have sufficient water for the groves. Since the District
has invested a substantial amount of money in stock, the District wants
to insure an identified amount of delivery for the well in the Conser-
vation District spreading grounds. It was noted the delivery point would
be in the Santa Ana River.
M/S/C (Johnson-Roddick) that the Board make the delivery rate for
1983 2% inches.
If the growers need additional water they would contact the District.
EAST VALLEY WATER DISTRICT REQUEST FOR DIVIERSION POINT
Mr. Rowe requested authorization by the North Fork Board of Directors
to make a physical connection to the North Fork ditch approximately 100
fee twest of the North Fork box. The purpose of the connection would
be to allow the District to take delivery of available North Fork water
in excess of the agricultural requirements on the north side of the
river. Construction and maintenance of the connection will be at East
Valley Water District expense. A weir will be. used to measure the amount
of water used. The water will be used for spreading in the Conservation
District's spreading ponds. It will be a return for the investment the
District has made in purchasing water stock and building a recharge record.
All work will be done on public works standards and in a time sequence
that will not interfer with growers deliveries. A map of the box and
land sold to the Conservation District will also be completed. The mapping
will be of the entire area, approximately 4 acres.
M/S/C (Roddick-Johnson) that the North Fork Board of Directors authorize
the East Valley Water District to make a connection to the North Fork
ditch approximately 100 feet west of the North Fork box; subject to
Bear Valley Water Company approval; that there be no cost to North Fork
Water Company.
