Moved by Director Doyle seconded by Director Rose the bills for
Boards approval be paid as listed. So carried.
Charles Spillner appeared before the Board and made an official
protest, as a citizen, concerning the Trout Creek Spring diversion.
Mr, Spillner is planning to build a home on Trout Creek and he in-
tends to use the water from the creek for domestic purposes and
landscaping. Mr. Spillner being an employee of the Dept. of
Fish and Game was also concerned as to what the diversion would
do to the natural reproduction of trout. The Board advised they
would allow sufficient water to pass so not to endanger reproduction,
Discussion ensued as to the measured flow of water and Mr. Spillner
stated his figure of .5 cubic feet per minute was based on estimates.
Manager advised he measured the spring flow six times from May thru
November and it measured not less than 100 g.p.m. It was managers
opinion that you could take out spring flow and there would be no
change in the creek flow,
Mr . Spillner advised the Board has to do what they feel would be
best and he as a citizen was doing what he felt was best for him-
self. Chairman Aweeka advised if the spring was developed it would
help Trout Creek. Manager felt once the spring was developed it
would reach a maximum flow of 185/200 g.p.m.
Mr. Spillner thanked the Board for their time and left the meeting
at 7:50 P.M.
