HomeMy WebLinkAbout1974-09-17 Min - Board SEPTEMBER 17 , 1974 The regular meeting of the Board of Directors of the Truckee-Donner Public Utility District was called to order by the president at 7 : 30 p.m. in the conference room of the District. ROLL CALL: Craig, present ; Sutton, present ; Anderson, present ; Waters , present. EMPLOYEES PRESENT: Kinzie , Cash, Grow, Rose OTHERS PRESENT: Ray W. Smith, Fred Whitford, Don Strand, James A. Maass, Fosten Wilson, Marigrey Fish, Adolph Moskovitz , Charles S. Doskow, Steven Lescher, Bob Rosenburg, Dan Waller, Barry Boelk, Arthur Broughton, Lowell Northrup , Dennis Goldstein, Gene Gini , James F. Trout, Bob Heght , Lester Grimes . MINUTES OF AUGUST 29 , 1974, AND SEPTEMBER 3, 1974 The president asked if there were any additions , corrections , or amend- ments to the Minutes of August 29 and September 3, 1974. Mr. Cash commented on a statement made at the September 3 meeting. On Page Four, third paragraph, the sentence starting with, "The minimum level. . . " the statement made during the meeting was that the minimum level of 500 gpm was required by the State ; however, the minimum acceptable level of 500 gpm is in accordance with the Supplemental Water AGreement with Dart. Mr. Cash wanted to clarify this point. Director Sutton asked that the minutes of the Adjourned Meeting of August 29 be corrected on Page two, 2nd paragraph beginning with "Director D. Anderson. . . " , the sentence starting with "Mr. Joynt said that he has demurred. . . " The last work in that sentence should be demurer rather than complaint. i It was moved by Director Sutton and seconded by Director Craig that the Minutes of August 29 be approved with the above correction. All aye ; motion carried. It was moved by Director Craig and seconded by Director Anderson that the minutes of September 3 be approved. All aye ; motion carried. BILLS FOR BOARD' S APPROVAL Mr. Cash explained the Nevada County bill as being the amount due for all delinquent Truckee Sanitary District assessments for the 1973--74 tax year against the district on parcels owned by the district. This also includes penalties in the amount of $383. 64 and costs of $65 . 00. Mr. Craig asked if a fund should be establishedto accrue amounts to pay the assessments on a yearly basis when due . Mr. Cash said it would be proper that it be done as soon as funds are available . The RTE bill in the amount of $5 ,090. 40 again appears on the list of bills to be approved for payment. This was deferred from the last board meeting as it exceeds the $2 , 000 limit for materials ordered without formal bid call . Director Sutton moved that the bills be paid with the exception of the RTE bill in the amount of $5 , 090. 40. This motion was seconded by Mr. Craig. A letter has been written by Attorney Joynt regarding the amount due Westinghouse Electric Supply Company for a similar purchase which made reference to the RTE purchase. ROLL CALL: Craig , aye ; Sutton, 1 aye ; Anderson, no ; Waters , no . Rex An erson explained his no vote as placing the District in an embarrassing situation by not paying the amount due for these transformers. Director Sutton requested that the board receive a breakdown of deposits showing money received from revenue , interest, etc. Approval of the bills was tabled until later in the meeting. The Public Hearing on the negative environmental declarations was tabled until after the discussion with Martin McDonough regarding the Donner Lake EIR. Pg. 214 DISCUSSION WITH MARTIN McDONOUGH Mr. McDonough was present at the meeting to answer any questions the Board may have on the draft EIR and matters pertaining to water and water contracts. Director Craig asked if Mr. McDonough had attended the meeting with the State Lands Commission held last Thursday, September 12 , which was in preparation for the public hearing to be held Tuesday, September 24 in Truckee on the Draft Environmental Impact Report. Mr. McDonough did not attend that meeting nor did any representative of the District . . Director Craig asked Mr. McDonough if he had a copy of the California- Nevada Interstate Water Compact as referenced to in the draft EIR. Mr. McDonough said he had a copy of it in his office and that he could .--. send the District a copy of it . Director Sutton asked how the amount of 4, 000 acre feet per second became the figure used by the District in the draft EIR when the amount under the application could be greater. Mr. McDonough said that the Walters , Ball , Hibdon, F Shaw report recommended the use of 4, 000 acre feet. Then when the District negotiated with Sierra Pacific, the agreement was that 1, 000 acre feet could be withdrawn the first six months of the year and an additional 1 , 000 acre feet could be withdrawn the second six months of the year. Negotiations also provided that if the District executed a contract for 50o replacement of water from the Stampede Project within ten years , Sierra Pacific would not object to the District obtaining an equal amount under its own water permits. This represented the 4, 000 acre feet amount . At the time of filing the application, a paragraph was added to the supplement which said the projected water requirement for the year 2020 is 4, 000 acre feet . The 7. 5 cubic feet per second is the maximum average rate of diversion per month. Mr. McDonough said that the district would not be able to use 7. 5 cfs monthly. The hydrologist computed that if the district were allowed to take up to an average of 7. 5 cubic feet in a month plus 2 , 140 acre feet of storage during the second six months that the yield is about 4 , 000 acre feet. The application to the State water Resources Control Board was pre- pared by Don Kienlen and reviewed by Mr. McDonough prior to sub- --_, mittal. The water rights to the Hofert and Sawtooth Springs water that the district is entitled to are being transferred to Donner Lake. Mr. McDonough explained this as being legal as Donner Lake and the two springs are tributaries , of the Truckee River. Director Sutton asked Mr. McDonough to explain the request made by the Nevada County District Attorney that the District require a use permit for the facilities at Donner Lake. Mr. McDonough stated that the District Attorney said that a Use Permit was required by the Planning Ordinance of Nevada County and the County Counsel believed that it was not. Mr. McDonough was advised that a use permit was not required by the County Counsel. This statement may not have satisfied the District Attorney. Mrs. Sutton did not understand hoer the intake facilities were allowed to be constructed without any type of permit required. Mr. McDonough stated that he cited a statute t6the District Attorney which exempted the District from getting a use per- mit had the facilities been constructed by the District. However, since construction was being done by Dart Resorts , the question was whether or not Dart needed a use permit. Mr. McDonough said he had correspondence in the office regarding the basis for the decision by the County Counsel which stated Dart Resorts did not need a use permit to construct the facilities. He would have to give the Board a written report on this . Director Sutton asked how the State Lands Commission became the Lead MO`" Agency rather than this District. Mr. McDonough believed that it was the Lead Agency on the principal that it was the State Agency that was being asked to do something. He also stated that there was talk of having the EIR prepared by the District; but since the action of this District in entering into the contract had antedated the enact- ment of the Statute in 1970 , it was concluded that this District was not required to have an EIR in order to complete the project under the contract . As soon as the District went to the State Lands Commission (or the Water Resources Control Board) , an EIR would have to be considered by the agency. Page Two - Sept. 17 , 1974 Page 215 Discussion with Martin McDonough . . . continued Director Sutton surmized that because the State Lands Commission assumes the roll of Lead Agency and allows the subdivider to select the consulting firm which this Board (under previous composition) acquiesced to in Resolution without active participation, someone has lost control over the contents and determining the adequacy of the report. Mr. McDonough stated that the State Lands Commission has determined the contents of the report. They have obtained the materials from information submitted by Jones and Stokes and requested Jones and Stokes to make revisions in that material . Director Sutton felt that there has been some selective activity on the part of someone as to what information this District has that is included in the report. ,—� Mr. McDonough advised that any information the District has relating to the environmental impact should be submitted to the State Lands Commission. He explained that the Jones and Stokes personnel attempted to do this through the District' s consultants . Mrs . Sutton asked if Mr. McDonough would comment on the Truckee-Carson Irrigation District ' s rights as Tenants-in-Common with S .P.P.Co. under the 1943 agreement with Donner Lake Company. When negotiations commenced with Sierra Pacific, Sierra Pacific suggested the contract be with both agencies, but because of extensive litigation over Truckee-Carson' s water rights , the contract was entered into with Sierra Pacific on the basis that Sierra Pacific has sufficient water from Donner Lake and otherwise to supply our needs without the consent of Truckee-Carson. Mr. McDonough stated, in his opinion, that tenants-in-common could dispose of all or part of their interest in property without affecting the other party (ies) involved. Director ' Craig asked that the location of the Donner Creek well be looked into as he was under the impression it was not located on PUD- owned land. f Director Sutton brought up the statements in the EIR which refer to the District deciding not to continue the utilization of wells and springs and looking to Donner Lake water as the primary source of water for the entire district. In doing this , it makes the 4, 000 a/f from Donner Pam" Lake a necessary source. Mr. McDonough said that the State Lands Commission should be aware that the District is drilling wells and exploring ground water sources . Mr. McDonough said that in 1968 , the ground water sources were not producing as they are today and quality of the ground water was not very good. This was when Donner Lake water was first being looked into. Mrs. Sutton asked Mr. McDonough if there would be any impropriety for the District to make a statement to the State Lands Commission regarding the EIR. She personally had reservations about the draft EIR being considered for final acceptance until the ground water study has been completed which may indicate alternate sources of water. Some Directors did not understand how the study done by Walters , . Ball Hibdon, and Shaw could be leaned on so heavily in the draft EIR when it had never been adopted by the District as a master water system plan. It projected the total population for the District in the year 2020 as 15 , 520 when the Tahoe Donner project itself projects a pop- ulation of 19 , 000. Director Sutton could find no record of the Board of Directors of the District ever deciding to abandon wells and springs, provide chlorinated water to all of the District , and that the ground water study was an important thing as an alternate source to Donner Lake water. She felt the State Lands Commission should be aware of these differences. Mr. McDonough stated that it would be appropriate for the Board to give the Commission Staff any information it may have either in a public hearing or in written form. Mrs . Sutton asked if j� Mr. McDonough was aware of any authorization by the District giving t Dart Industries the go-ahead to place the intake pipe and build the fil- tration facilities at Donner Lake except Cattan and Cook' s signature on Detail Plans on April 2 , 1973. Mr. McDonough was not aware of any such authorization. The facilities were constructed prior to the legal rights to the water having been obtained by this District. Mrs. Sutton asked if the original agreement with Lakeworld Development Company (now Dart Resorts) was primarily on to service water to Tahoe Donner or serve Tahoe Donner with water from Donner Lake. Mr. McDonough thought it provided for the supplying of water to the subdivision which the District did not have without going to Donner Lake. Lakeworld agreed, as a condition to the District' s assurance to serve Tahoe Donner with water, that they would construct the facilities as outlined in the agreement. The object of the original contract was to Page Three -- Sept. 17, 1974 Pg. 216 Discussion with Martin McDonough . . . continued supply Tahoe Donner with water and provide other water sources to the district. Mr. McDonough said that the District does not have to serve Tahoe Donner with water from Donner Lake but is obligated to serve Tahoe Donner with water. He said that the District could serve the subdivision with water from another source and use Donner Lake water some- where else within the District. If the Board wants to propose another source of service for the subdivision, then Mr. McDonough thought negotiations should be made with Dart. Mrs. Sutton asked why the State Water Resources Control Board has taken five years to act on the District' s application for water, and whether the delay was due to the number of protests . Mr. McDonough said the delay is now because of the litigation by the State Lands Commission against the District. The State Water Control Board has ' taken the position that the Lands Commission should make its decision regarding the lawsuit prior to ruling on the water rights application. Mr. Anderson felt the direction the board should take is to hold a special meeting if necessary prior to September 24 to go over any items of the draft EIR that they would like as a board to bring to the attention of the State Lands Commission and at that time have Mr. McDonough, Mr. Joynt, Mr. Cash, and any board members that wish to attend be at that meethg. Mr. Anderson believed that the Board has established a policy by Resolution which supports the filing of the application with the State Lands Commission and withdrawal of water from Donner Lake. He referred to Resolution 7004 , Lakeworld Contract , and Resolution 7321 , Authorizing the Manager and Counsel to File an Application for a lease of the Donner Lake Intake and the State Lands Commission. It was decided to hold an executive session following tonight' s regular meeting to discuss with Mr. McDonough the District ' s stand on the draft EIR and recommendations on its contents . Rate Case Mr. McDonough presented the Board with copies of the rate increase statistics and reviewed the figures with the Directors ; a copy of which is attached. The position of the District was in support of r"' the FPC staff findings. September 5 was the deadline for exceptions to be filed on the initial Commission decision which Mr. McDonough did. There is a provision in the rules for a filing of a reply to the brief on exceptions twenty days after the exceptions are filed and that expires September 25 . The Board agreed that Mr. McDonough should file further exceptions to Sierra Pacific Power Company' s rate increase. PUBLIC HEARINGS ON NEGATIVE DECLARATIONS The public hearings on the negative declarations on the West River Street Main Extension, Armstrong System Upgrading, and Highway 267 INterfie projects were tabled until the next regular meeting of October 1 due to the fiteen-day requirement that the negative declar- ations be filed with the Nevada County Clerk prior to the public hearing. To date , this requirement has not been met. All directors agreed that these public hearings should be tabled until October 1 . RESOLUTION ACCEPTING IBEW CONTRACT The Directors were presented with a current copy of the 1974 employee contract. Director Craig requested a list of the employees and what classification they come under in the agreement . There being no further discussion, it was moved by Director Anderson and seconded by Director Craig that Resolution 7421, Employee Contract , be adopted. ROLL CALL: Craig, aye; Anderson, aye; Sutton, aye ; WAters , aye. MEETING TIME WITH REPRESENTATIVE OF ALEXANDER GRANT & COMPANY Mr. Cash asked that the Board set up a date and time to meet with Mr. Jim Murphy of Alexander Grant to present and review the type of reports to be received .monthly on the financial position of the District. It was decided to place Mr. Murphy first on the agenda of the meeting of October 1 , 1974, prior to Approval of the Minutes or Bills . Page Four - Sept. 17 , 1974 pg. 217 GRANTING AN EASEMENT FOR PIPELINE TO U. S. FOREST SERVICE A resolution was presented to the Board which grants the Forest Service an easement to construct a pipeline on District property. This was delayed from the previous meeting because the location of the pipeline was changed. It was moved by Director Anderson and seconded by Director Craig that Resolution 7422 , Authorizing Execution of Easement with U.S. Forest Service, be adopted. ROLL CALL: Craig, aye ; Anderson, aye ; Sutton,aye; Waters , aye. So moved. District Counsel Reports Mr. Joynt reported that the attorney representing Jones and Rich was ranted twenty days to amend their complaint as authorized b h g Y Y P y the Board The deadline for this is Monday, September 23. Nothing to date has been heard regarding that amendment. i MANAGER' S REPORT Discussion of Installation of Underground Power on Alley Street On Alley Street in Downtown Truckee, the Telephone Company is going underground with their facilities 800 feet. They have proposed the District jointly doing the trenching work with them at an estimated cost of $3. 00 per foot or $2 , 400 for laying four-inch conduit to be used for future undergrounding of power. Mr. Cash did not think an opportunity of this nature would come up again. Mr. Cash recommended that only the conduit be laid and the wire not pulled at this time. The conduit is presently in stock, originally purchased for the Tahoe Donner Substation. The work can be done by present personnel . Mr. Cash was asked to present a further estimate of personnel time and cost of j conduit. All Board members were in favor of working jointly with the j Telephone Company to install underground conduit on Alley Street in Truckee. They requested project costs by the next Board meeting . Miscellaneous Mr. Cash reported that on Thursday, September 19 , the public opening and tabulation of the construction bids for the W. River Street project are scheduled. Mr. Ed Ness needs the information on the bid openings by the following Friday to continue with the proceedings of the Assess- ment District. The bid award will be considered after the public hear- ing on October 1. The Bond Attorney needs the low bid to make final adjustments in the Engineer' s Estimate. The amount spent on the meter testing room to date for room construction, heating, ventilation, insulation, and labor is $4, 150. This does not include the cost of the meter tester. { The Tahoe City Recycling Center has requested the use of the District' s Board room for the purpose of holding their Board of Director' s meeting. Allowing the room to be used would necessitate an employee of the Dis- trict coming to the office at the beginning of the meeting to open the door and stay until the meeting is over. Mr. Anderson felt there are other public meeting places in the area which would allow the group to meet without increasing personnel costs . The Hospital District ' s Board room and School District ' s Board room were given as examples . Director Sutton felt the District ' s Board room was a public building to be used by the public. I It was moved by Director Sutton that the Board allow North Tahoe Recycl- ing Center Board of Directors use the Board room on Wednesday, October 2 . Seconded by Director Craig. ROLL CALL: Craig, aye ; Anderson, no ; Sutton, aye; Waters , no. Director Waters said he would be in favor of the motion if the cost of the personnel to be present while the meeting is being held is paid by the group. Director Anderson favored the motion if it would be stipulated that the use be for one meeting only. Director Waters agreed to this . Finally it was informally agreed not to make the room available for other meetings . ef Mr. Cash corrected a statement he made at the last regular meeting re- garding the Donner Trails and Soma Sierra Tanks not being metered. These two tanks are metered along with the Northside well. They are presently pumping more water from the N. S. well than is being used within the Tahoe Donner subdivision. i Page Five - Sept. 17 � 1974 P 218 g• MIscellaneous . . . continued Dr. William Donnelly has requested power to his medical office under construction near the hospital. The installation will require two- 300 KVA transformers . One transformer will supply the offices and the other will supply heating tapes to be installed in- the sidewalk area and driveway entrance to melt snow during the winter months . Mr. Cash suggested a rate re-evaluation affecting the medical offices as there is only one other service similar to this and it is the Southern Pacific track heaters . Mr. Cash said that other utilities charge a montly minimum of $ . 75 per KVA which would be $225 for a 300 KVA connection. Since Dr. Donnelly intends to open the offices around Christmas , Mr. Cash requested the Board waive purchasing procedure and authorize the manager to negotiate the purchase of the transformers , determine the price and delivery and report back at the next meeting with a recommendation as to what action should be taken. Staff was notified of the need for the transformer installation approximately two weeks ago. Director Craig moved that this be declared an emergency situa- tion and the manager be authorized to negotiate for the price and delivery date of two 300 KVA transformers and report back to the Board with recommendations . Seconded by Director Anderson. ROLL CALL: Craig, aye; Sutton, no, could not vote "yes" as it is the same kind o thing the Board has been doing for years that she has criticized; Anderson, aye ; Waters, aye . Mr. John Dod has written another letter requesting payment of travel expenses to the Interim Manager interview on July 9 . Mr. Dod states that Mr. Paulus ' statement regarding the payment of traveling expenses constituted a verbal contract. The second letter received contradicts statements made in the first letter. Director Sutton moved that the District pay the total bill . This motion died due to a lack of a second. The remaining Board members felt the bill should not be paid and Mr. Dod should be told this. Mr. Cash reported that Harold Heidrick, the District ' s Electrical Con- sultant , did not feel the energizing of power lines in Tahoe Donner constitutes legal acceptance of power line construction. The rela- tionship of power line acceptance with County road acceptance has been referred to the County. Mr. Cash said that the County will write a letter on this but feels there is no remote connection. BILLS FOR BOARD' S APPROVAL Consideration of Bills for Board' s .Approval was discussed again. Director Anderson felt that failure to pay the RTE bill would place the District in an embarrassing situation especially since contacts will be made to RTE on transformer bid quotes . Director Craig saw no point in delaying payment to RTE if nothing is going to be done about future payment. Director Sutton felt that if the board discovered some sort of mismanagement in specific instances , the Board is obli- gated to take specific action if there is any action that can be taken. By paying the bill , she felt any basis of recourse is destroyed. Director Craig moved that all the bills be paid. Seconded by Director Anderson. ROLL CALL: Craig, aye ; Sutton, no; Anderson, aye ; Waters , aye. So moved. Mr. Joynt did not think there was any more research he could do on the legal position of the Board and any decisions would be left up to the Board. It was moved by Director Craig and seconded by Director Anderson that the meeting be adjourned to Executive Session. The regular meeting was adjourned at 11 : 00 p.m. ---, At 1 : 00 a.m. the Board closed the executive session and reopened in regular session. It was moved by Director Anderson and seconded byr Director Craig that Martin McDonough' s statement be presented at the September 24 , 1974, hearing with the following changes (a copy of Mr. McDonough' s state- ment is attached as part of the minutes) : 1. Page two, Paragraph 3, line 7, beginning with comma - change to read, "that will change the levels of the lake as shown in the relative graphs in the EIR. " I Page Six - Sept. 17 , 1974 _ P . 219 g Action Taken after Executive Session. . . continued 2 . Page 3, Paragraph 2 - delete the first sentence 3. Include in the statement the desire of the Board to incorporate into the EIR the pending ground water study being conducted by Dr. John Sharp . Motion carried by voice vote. It was moved by Mr. Waters and seconded by Mr. Anderson to advise Westinghouse Electric Supply Company by phone and follow-up letter that the Board assumes no responsibility to accept delivery of or agree topayment for transformers ordered on our Purchase Order 2195 g dated August 15 , 1973 , in the amount of approximately $16 , 000 . Action taken on basis of our purchase order having been issued in violation of Public Utilities Code provisions with no knowledge of the transaction by the Board. ROLL CALL: Craig, aye; Sutton, aye ; Anderson, aye ; Waters , aye. The Board approved the release of the names of the candidates for the vacancy on the Board and set 9 : 00 p.m. , October 1 , 1974, as the time for each candidate to publicly make a three to four minute presentation of his background and interest in the position. The applicants are : James A. Maass , Brian Flaherty, Bob Christensen, Karl Kuttel , Fosten Wilson, Jr. , Ray W.

STATEMENT ON BEHALF OF TRUCKEE-DONNER PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT TO THE STATE LANDS COMMISSION, September 24, 1974 IF IT PLEASE THE COMMISSION: My name is Martin c McDonough, my address is 555 Capitol Mall, Sacramento Cali- fornia. I am special counsel in water rights matters to Truckee-Donner Public Utility District whose application for a lease caused the preparation of the environmental impact report which is the subject of this hearing. The application by the District for a lease of state land to divert water from Donner Lake was filed after the Commission brought an action to prevent such a diversion without a lease. At that time construction had been com- menced by Dart Industries, under a contract with the- Dis- trict, under which Dart was to complete the intake and trans- fer it without cost to the District, in return for the Dis- trict's agreement to supply water to Dart' s Tahoe-Donner development. Before the action was brought, attorneys for Dart and Truckee-Donner did not believe that the portion of the bed of the lake on which construction was proceeding belonged to the state; an opinion of the Attorney General rendered to the Legislature on February 18 , 1946, seemed to hold that it was not. Many other structures had been constructed on the shores of the lake without any objection from this Commission. 'is Pg. 224 f ^r.Yr l` "` :" ir1 ;• -_: ;" t' ', !I f`x^! ,F Nevertheless, when this Commission asserted by its } lawsuit that state lands were involved, Truckee-Donner and Dart deemed it wise to make application for a lease in order ti to remove any doubt as to the legality of their occupancy. They retained the firm of Jones and Stokes to furnish to your Commission the information and data necessary for the preparation of an environmental impact report, pursuant to your requirements. Although consultants for Truckee-Donner have worked with Jones and Stokes in the preparation of the environmental impact report, the Board of Directors has taken no action on that report, since that action is within the jurisdiction of your Commission. We support your full consideration of the environmental impacts involved; the District will take note of the testimony produced here, as you will. The District desires to point out that since 1968 � . it has been uniformly advised by its engineering consultants that a water supply from Donner Lake is necessary and appro- priate in order to men:t the District' s future water require- ments , and that such a supply can be obtained, with the consent of Sierra Pacific Power Company under an agreement ifL1 that will change the levels with it, which has been executed, that will not materially of the lake as shown in the relative graphs in the I of affect the levels produced by the historical operation the lake. This advice will be tested again in proceedings before the State Water Resources Control Board at a later date. r4' 2 Pg. 224-B Based on this advice, Truckee-Donner has four years ago entered into a contract with Dart Industries for supply- ing water to the Tahoe-Donner development. our advisers tell us now that there is no assurance that the needs of that development, or indeed the growing needs of the re- , mainder of the District, can be met in the future without taking some water from Donner Lake. DE LE-TE IThe District does intend to continue to develop other feasible sources of supply, so that at any time when taking water from Donner Lake might harm the lake the other sources can be substituted. A conjunctive operation of Donner Lake with other surface sources, and with wells, would allow the District to operate with surface water of good quality when it is available, and with ground water of generally poorer quality when surface water is not avail- able. The District will of course observe whatever restric- tions are placed in our permits by the State Water Resources Control Board, whose permission we also seek, but subject to those conditions ,tic expect to operate among our sources including Donner Lake, in such a way as to protect all in- terests, based on the circumstances that exist at the time. The District appreciates this opportunity to appear before you. ADDITION: It is the desire of the Board of Directors to incorporate into the E. I .R. the pending ground water study being conducted by Dr . John Sharp. k } 3 Pg. 225-C STATEMENT OF GENERAL FUND Bank Balance - 8-30- 74 39 ,038 . 63 Deposits 639745. 00 .
