Update on Airport Well and Martis Valley Well
Mr. Taylor said the Airport Well is repaired and running, producing more water than it previously
had. But we now have a major problem. Martis Valley Well is producing sand and has impacted
some of the area nearby. It has been taken off line and a zone specific pumping test will be per-
formed to locate the sand problem area.
Mr. Terrell found that the county officially enacted the Truckee Donner PUD on May 9, 1927. He
is requesting assistance from a couple Board members to provide direction outside the Board
meetings for planning of the 75th Anniversary.
