As Dave's memo indicates, all samples were pure in March. B) TAHOE DONNER PIPELINE PROJECT We are gearing up to bring T& S Construction and Ford Construction back to town to complete the Tahoe Donner Pipeline project. We will begin by performing an inspection of the entire project and develop a punch list of items to be completed.

This is our chance to finish up the project in a quality manner. C) FINANC/AL STATEl4 ENTS Attached are financial statements covering the firstmonth ofthe year. The financial reports consist of the Investment letter, statement of general fund, water and electric balance sheets, and water and electric income statements. D) PENSION INVESTMENTS Richard Curran, Mary Chapman and/met with Wayne Richardson on Wednesday, April 15 to discuss pension investments. We wanted to know how secure our investments are at the Hartford Insurance Company. After learning that the GIC we are in vested In holds no interests In real estate, but rather is privately invested in corporate bonds, we felt very good about the security of our investment. We then talked to Wayne about options available to us to di versify and to gain an improved rate ofretum on our investments. There was some consensus that It would be advisable to in vest a portion ofthe pension plan asset (somewhere in the range of25to 50%of the asset)into a conservative stock equity mutual fund. Wayne will do some research on mutual funds he is familiar with and prepare a mmendation for us. The Finance Committee will m specific reco eet with Wayne argain before this matter comes back before the Board.
