Re: Request to sell District property
The Disriict acquired a parcel of land with a Well on it as part of a tract
development in 1987. The site is located south of the Immanuel Baptist Church and
east of Webster on Satinwood Court. The Well never produced water for the
District due to a shallow depth, small casing and difficult access. The Well was so
shalluw that the Well was dry from the early 1990's until it was properly destroyed
in 2006. The parcel land is landlocked beriveen three parcels of residential land and
a fourth pazcel owned by an unknowc~ entity (most likely the Home Owners
Association) with ingiess and egress rights dedicated to the District for access to the
Well pazcel (see attached exhibit).
In early 2006, a District customer and adjacent property owner to this former Well
site called to express her frustration with the dilapidated Fence around the Well
pazcel and the lack of use by the District in using this parcel. It appeazs kids were
getting into the site and causing dishxrbances to the neighbor. The District
responded by repairing the fence and gate so that the kids would not enter the site.
At about this same time, the customer called to describe another frustration she had
with excess lawn sprinkler (irri~ation) water coming from, what she believed was
the District's parcel. Upon investigation, the irrigation water appears to be cemir.g
from this fourth access parcel adjacent to her property. This access parcel appears to
be an extension of the customer's property, planted with grass and improved as a
yard. District staff enters the Well properiy by foot since the date that we acquired
the property mainly due to said improvements and not bein~ able to use the Well (in
other words, vehicular access was not necessary to justify the damagin~ of the
lawn/improvements). The excess irrigation water, apparently, is coming from the
Home Owner's Association, the most lilcely owner of the parcel.
<
_
March 2, 2007
The parcel is of no use to the District and becoming a nuisance. This pazcel is a
money drain in terms of the maintenance that will be needed to protect the property
from unauthorized access and the costs of weed abatement. The customer has
expressed an interest in buyin~ the parcel &om the District in order to eliminate one
or more of her frustrations (see attached letter). I recommend that the District
declare the parcel as excess, have the parcei appraised and put the pazcel up for sale.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please let me know.

Friends of the Highland Branch Library
Apri125,2006
Mr Kip Sturgeon
c/o East Valley Water District
Dear Mr. Sturgeon:
The City of Highland has been awazded a five million dollaz grant to build a new
library and envuonmental leaming center on Central Avenue next to a pazk and the
community center on city owned land. Groundbreaking is expected in spring 2006.
This library will be state of the art and a significant asset to the community with a
computer lab, literacy lab, young adult study areas, an environmental roof gazden,
meeting rooms and an amphitheater.
It will also serve as the school library for Cypress Elementary School located
across the street, and will house all of the textbooks used in the classrooms. Students will
be able to use the library evenings and on Saturdays when school iibzaries aze nbrmally .
closed. T'he area serving Cypress School is low income. These children are not likely to
have the advantages such as personal Computers available in their homes. Additionally,
the library will be within walking distance from home for many ch;ldren, eliminating
transportation problems. This library will help give students from a disadvantaged
neighborhood a safe, quiet environment in which to leam.
Friends of the Highland Library, a 501 (c) 3 community support group, has
committed to raise $125,000 to fumish the children and youne adult azeas of the library.
East Vailey Water District has an established presence in our community and we
ask for your support as a major corporate sponsor. T'he library will provide permanent
reEOgnition via a donor wall in the library. We believe this library is a quality project
worthy of your support. It will be a lone lastine presence for East Valley Water District
in the city and will serve Hi~hland and its neighbors with pride for many years to come.
Sincerely,
, ;

Presented to East Va(iey Water District March 9, 2007
New Highland Library & Environmental Learning Center
Water Education Eahibit
1. There aze at least two ways of using water to tell the history of the Valley. One simple way is
to set up timeline and at regular intervals show a water fact along the line. For instance, photos
of :
a The building of Big Beaz Dam
• The Capping of Artesian Wells in the Valley
. Irrigating the Orange Groves
• The Gage Canal
• The 193 S Flood
• The State Water Project at Deviis Canyon
• Seven Oaks Dam
We would use some artifacts such as old wooden pipes once used for irrigation, an old pump
used for pumping the aquifer, some field notebooks of well logs and other related materials.
2. Another way to tell the story is to choose a few topics of interest that could be used to tel] the
history of the Valley through those topics. For instance we might choose the topics of:
• Recreation
• AgricukurelIndustry
• Early pioneerslearly amvers use of water-etc.
• Water Manipulation/or moving water for human use
. Water Emergencies-Droughts and Floods
o Rivers/Watersheds ofthe County
. Environmental Concerns
'Q'hen within each topic we choose hali a dozen photos with captions to fill out the details.
~xainple:
~~c•rea6io~n ideas:
~?ho*.cs of some ofthe various fi~o? Springs-ATrowhead T~dot So*iras, ~?a_lem, ~-b;tia
o?'hotos of various Lakes-Arrowhead, Si~ ~ear, Vuciaoa i~egional d ark
o ~Photos of various ea_r?y plunges-~Coltor, F'erris Nill
~ So~ve ~;cund cree'.cs(rivers-4iaarm ~Creei~, ~'own ~r~ek, ~t„ng° ~reeic `o- rshiz=,
s~ai..~ ~a~-e.c.

.~j~~j'~ i ~ , , < ~ ~
Rivers/ Watersheds of County:
This would be an interactive display of river systems of SB County-including Colorado River at
eastem edge- push a button and a river lights up to indicate that location.
Major Rivers in San Bernazdino County include:
• Santa Ana River
• 1~Rojave River
o Colorado River
Important tributaries:
• San Timoteo
• Mill Creek
• Lytie Creek
• Cajon Creek
• City Creek
• Plunge Creek
• Waterman Canyon, etc.
WE wouid use a 3-dimensional model to provide an explanation of Watersheds.
Environmental Concerns:
. Endangered species
• Wetland preservation
• Haoitae Restoration
• Pollution, including cleaning up Perchlorate and other problems
• Water Use Conservation
Some subj ects aze used in more than one category, but that doesn't imply using it twice-it just
fits both categories.
`JVe would brainstonn this approach with interested representatives to see what might be most
interesting to a wide vaziety of people, including chilc~ren K-12. Within each topic we can
;~rovide some artifacts to illustrate that topic where appropriate. Each topic would be explained
,~ith the heavy use of photos; and a minimum of text. Also with each topic an zctual iist of
bookts) or document(s) would be included that could be seen or checked out of?he library a± that
mo:nent i* further information was desired by the viswer.

Subjecr_: Public Outreach Agenda
Hi Jus=i.ne,
Can you add "Steve Hall Scholarship Fund" to the next public outreach
commit~ee? This is what I have on the topic...
Steve :Ha11, Executive Director of Association of California Water Agencies,
is retiring later this year. Instead of board resolutions and gifts, he is
requesting that gifts be made to the "Steve Ha11 Scholarship Fund" which is
beinc established by ACWA. Income from this fund wi11 be used to provide
scholarships for individuals pursuing graduate degrees in areas of benefit
to California's water community. The name "Steve Aal1 Scholarship Fund" is
temporary. He is trying to have his name removed from the fund. Regardless
of what it is called, the fund is designed to commemorate his career.
Investment income from the fund wi11 pay for the yearly scholarships. It is
eacpec:ted that gifte this year will create a large core-value which will grow
as years progress. Although a specific goal has not been set, the desire is ,
for t.he scholarship fund to reach six figures this year. Whether that is a
reasonable goal is yet to be seen. The official inception date of the fund
wi11 be Thursday, May lOth. That is the date set for a celebration dinner
in Mr. Hall's honor.
I would like East Valley Water District to be a charter donor to this fund.
It appears that gifts will range from just a few dollars a11 the way into
the thousands. Although gifts to the fund wi11 be accepted in Euture years,
ACWA is rioping that agencies are generous this year as a way of paying
*_ribute to Mr. Hall. ACWA will send out payment information in March or
~pri1.

Deaz Public Official:
~ ~ ~ ~ By 2020, San Bemardino County's population is expected to reach 3 million. All of
~ these people will need water for cooking, drinking, bathing and landscaping.
Additionally, there are tbousands of businesses and government agencies using
~ water. These include farms, hospitals, universities, fue departments, pazks,
recreation centers, golf courses, restaurants, stadiums and the list goes on and on.
Add to this picture the fact that much of our water comes from places like Northem
California, Arizona and Nevada - all booming with population growth - and it
becomes cleaz that we need careful planning and public/private collaboration to
ensure loag-term water availability in San Bemazdino County.
On August 9th, 2007, government officials, business leaders and community
stakeholders will attend the San Bernazdino County Water Conference to discuss
suategies for protecting our future water supply.
The event will take place from 8 a.m. - 2 p.m. at the Ontazio Convention Center.
Breakfast and lunch will be served.
In order to make tlus event a success, we invite you to lend your name, or your
agency's name, to the event as a co-host. Your participation as a co-host will give
the event greater credibility, increasing attendance among the region's stakeholders.
There is no financial obligation for you to serve as a co-host. Your name will
be prominently featured on the event letterhead and web site, and you will be
entitled to complimentary admission.'I'he event web site, w~vw.sbcwater.com, is
schednled to be activated on Mazch 1, 2007.
I£ you will participate as a co-host, please email mazy@sbcwater.com. If you
have any questions, you may call Carlos Rodriguez at (909) 945-1884.
We deal with many issues impacting quality of life, but water transcends quality
of life to sustaining life itself. By working together, we can £ormulate long-term
solutions that keep water flowing to every tap for many years to come.

Greetings NLr. Martin,
I wanted to share this article with you that appeared in the Press Enterprise.
The azticle describes how climate change could adversely affect our future water supply.
Regardless of your opinion about the study described in this article, I think we all agree that we
have a need for pubiiclprivate collaboration to ensure long-term water sustainability.
I urge you to lend your name or your agency's name to our event - the San Bemazdino County
Water Conference - scheduled for August 9, 2007 at the Ontario Convention Center.
This will be a lazge scale event, well-attended by public agencies and stakeholders, where we will
discuss integrated regional water management strategies that can benefit the entire county.
To lend your name to the co-host list, sunply send an email to
Give her your full name, title and agency name. This information will be added to the event web
~ite; letterhead and other promotional materials. Your name will also be lo~~ed !o receive
complimeniary admission to the event.

Future of water supply at risk
STUDY: Warming imperils flow to Inland area
Wednesday, February 21, 2007
By JENNIFER BOWLES, The Press-Enterprise
Global wazming may cause longer and more severe droughts than ever seen on the Colorado
River, significantly decreasing the West's water suppiy for drinking, growing crops and keeping
lawns green, a study by the National Research Council concluded Wednesday.
The decline in supply could be so severe a previous study cited suggested as much as 20 percent
that water-saving measures won't be enough to compensate in the rapidly growing region, the
council's study said.
The council is part of the National Academies a group of private, nonprofit institutions that
provide science, technology and health policy advice under a congressional charter. The study
e;carnined previous research, including tree-ring data dating back 600 yeazs, to draw conclusions
and offer recommendations.
Such a drop in Colotado River flow, the panelists said, could lead to costly and difficult choices
on an already politically contentious issue: how to shaze the li£eblood of the West. The rivei•
serves water to seven states and to 18 million people in Southern California alone, including more
than 1 million in the Inland region. It is used heavily for agriculture in the Coachella Valley.
"Whenever decisions have to be made on whose water is reduced, that is always contentious," said
Ernest Smerdon, former dean of the College of Engineering and Mines at the University of,
Arizona, Tucson, who chaired the study panel.
The panel, made up of experts in climate, water resources, engineering and geography, urged the
states to launch an in-depth study of water supply and demand so they have a plan in place before
a crisis occurs.
The panelists applauded the basin states for already proposing to the U.S. Interior Department a
way to diwy up supplies in case of shortage. That kind of interstate cooperation, they said, will
prove increasingly valuable and likely essential.
?n addition, a netwark of gauges along the 1,450-mile river shou(d remain in place to give a ciear
and consistent picture of what's happening to the flows, Smerdon said.
"The water supply situation is so critical that above all, in this time of budget stress, it's very
important that this gauging network be maintained or increased," he said.
Local Iteaction
~~%a~er managers in the Inland region and Southern Califomia said the report rziterated iafo~*natioa
tr.e}~ alrzady knew for the most part. But it wi11 help ~et the messa~e across to decision mak~r~.
°Sometimes we can sit and spin our wheels zr.d ?alk sbout the n~:mbers," said Nt;ke Game;.

respected academics, is pretty valuable."
The Penis-based water agency serves some 649,000 residents in the eastem poRion of western
Riverside County; 25 percent of the water comes from the Colorado River.
Roger Patterson, assistant general manager of Metropolitan Water District, which serves 18
million customers in Southem California, said the report will help develop contingency plans even
more.
"From a planning perspective, we have better data on how bad things can get," he said.
Susan Lien Longville, director of the Water Resources Institute at Califomia State Universiry, San
E3ernardino, said Southern Califomia is more prepazed to handle droughts than it used to be. In the
last 10 yeazs, she said, agencies have turned their attentions to developing more supplies locally to
reduce dependence on imported sources.
"Obviously for Southern Califomia, Diamond Valley Lake is the best safety net we have," she
said of the huge reservoir near Hemet.
"At least we have a supply that can last us for several months and if mandatory conservation were
mandated through a special drought, that would help for a long time."
Wazming Trend
The National Resources Council study cited studies showing that temperatures across the
Colorado River basin today are at least 1.5 degrees warmer than during a severe, fiveyeaz drought
in the 1950s. The region, it noted, is known for warming more than any other place in the
tJnited States.
Estunates of future warming rates over this century aze in the four to nine degree range, the study
added.
An increase of just four degrees would lead to a four to 12 percent reduction in the river's flow,
according to a study from the eazly 1990s. A 2005 study found that flows would decrease by 20
percent by the end of the century.
Warmer temperatures affect the runoff of snowmelt from the mountains so that less water would
flovr into the river, said Connie Woodhouse, associate geography professor at University of
~rizona, Tucson.
She s~id, in that case, winter precipitation appeazs more as rain so less moisture is preserved in the
snowpack, z~ i piants in the region would take up more water in the heat.
's?hat still remains unclear, she said, is how the warming temperatures would affect precipitation
ievels.
,~ralysis of t:ee-ring data shows that ex±ended drouQh±s, such as the cu.:ent one t'~a? be~an some
