Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
From: Ed Taylor, Water Superintendent
Date: 2-09-01
Subject: Acquisition of land from TTSA for Martis Valley Well Number 1
BACKGROUND:
On January 17, 2001, a draft lease agreement was presented to the Board for the land for
the Mattis Valley Well #1. After your review and comments of the draft lease, agreement
Peter Holzmeister had additional discussions with Craig Woods, General Manager of TTSA.
New agreements for the lease of a well site and for the pipeline easements were prepared.
The lease agreement includes a 50-year lease with a 50-year renewal. The easement
agreement is for all easements from TTSA for the installation of the well, all pipelines,
electrical and communications. The easements would be Public Utility Easements
In return for the lease for the site and the easements, the District will provide a water service
line to TTSA. We would also forego collection of facilities fees and connection fees
associated with this service to TTSA. In addition, TTSA would receive up to 4000 gallons per
day (gpd) of water at no charge. All water used in access of 4000 gpd average will be
charged at our commercial rate.
RECOMMENDATION:
I recommend that the Board adopt the site lease agreement between the District and TTSA
for acquisition of a site for construction of Mattis Valley Well Number 1.

Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
From: Ed Taylor, Water Superintendent
Date: 2/8/01
Consideration of a proposal from Nimbus Engineering for hydrogeologic
services in drilling of the production well for development of water
supply
The Board approved a contract with Nimbus Engineering to perform a Ground Water
Resource Evaluation to determine the best locations to develop additional water supply
for the District. The Ground Water Resource Evaluation is complete.
Test holes were drilled and evaluated for water source production. It was determined
from the evaluation that the best location for a new production well is on the TTSA site.
Nimbus Engineering has designed the new well under the previous contract. It is
important that the water supply development process continue so the District can meet
the water demands for 2001.
The next step in the process for water source development is to drill the production well.
Plans and specifications are complete and Lang Drilling is ready to proceed. Additional
technical geologic services during the drilling of the production well will be needed to
assure the well is completed in a manner that provides a good producing production
well.
Staff is recommending the approval of the attached proposal Nimbus Engineering for
hydrogeologic services for the production well in the amount not to exceed of$88,132.
Recommendation
I recommend that the Board approve the proposal from Nimbus Engineering for
hydrogeologic services in drilling of the production well for a new water supply and
authorize the execution of an agreement for the proposed services.

RE: Scope of Services and Cost Estimate for Water Supply Development Program for
Truckee Donner Public Utility District (Tasks IV, V, and VI),Nimbus Job No. 06700-
0104
Dear Mr. Taylor:
Nimbus Engineers has prepared this proposal to outline a Scope of Services and Cost Estimate
for Tasks IV and V of the TDPUD Water Supply Development Program. These two tasks
include the Production Well Program and the Production Well Report. Following is our
breakdown for the proposed Scope of Services and associated Cost Estimate.
Scope of Services
Task IV Production Well Program
• The production well construction and pumping test technical specifications were
already prepared and sent out under Task III. Task IV includes preparation work
that has to be completed prior to the mobilization to the site of the production well
drilling rig. It involves the submitting of permit requests, meetings with TDPUD,
maintaining contact with the Lang Drilling, etc.
• The major portion of this task will be the on-site supervision and data collection
during the production well drilling, construction, development, and testing. It is
anticipated that the time schedule for this task can be expedited based upon work
completed by Lang during the exploration drilling program. During this task,
Nimbus will be on-site to record and supervise all activity during the drilling of
the borehole to the anticipated total depth of 930 feet. After the borehole is
geophysically logged, the final well design will be approved and the well
constructed. After the well has undergone air-lift development, the test pump will
3785 Baker Lane,#201 - Reno,Nevada 89509 ^ (775)689-8630 , Fax(775)689-8614 - nimbus@nimbusengincers.com
be installed and thq testing program will commence. It is anticipated that as a
minimum there will be a 12-hour step drawdown testing period, followed by at
least 3 days of a constant-discharge pumping test program. During the pumping
of the production well, field water quality parameters, pH. EC, and Temperature
will be measured every 6 to 12 hours. Prior to the shutting off of the pump, a
water sample will be collected and submitted to the laboratory for completion
analysis. After completion of the 72-hours pumping, water level recovery
readings will be collected for at least 2 and possibly 3 days.
Task V Production Well Report
• After completion of the pumping tests on the production well, a final report will
be prepared and submitted to the TDPUD. This report will summarize all field
activity and laboratory data that was collected during the drilling, construction,
development, and pumping tests phases of the well completion. Within the report
a recommendation section will provide information outlining the well's long-term
yield and potential, the recommended pumping rate, and the depth at which the
production pump should be set to ensure maximum production and efficiency.
• The report will also contain an evaluation of the two previously drilled
exploration holes (7oerger Road and Featherstone) results with respect to their
geologic and geophysical log characteristics. Based on results of the production
well yield, a preliminary well yield of a production well which may be drilled at
the Featherstone exploration site will be calculated.
Task VI Project Management
• This task will involve direct over-site and responsibility of the project manager,
David Carlson. The project management task will include supervision of all
geologic and hydrogeologic data collected, including field activities. Weekly
meetings will continue as begun under the exploration program, and all of the
presentations before the board that are required will be conducted by the project
manager. Also, the project manager will be available for additional board
meetings as required.

Memorandum
To: Board of Directors
From: Mary Chapman, Administrative Services Manager
Date: February 9, 2001
Transfer of funds from the water facilities fee fund to the water general
fund
At the last board meeting, the Board was asked to transfer funds from facilities fees to
cover paid invoices for several projects where the expenditures qualify for facilities fees
reimbursement. One of those projects is the new Mantis Valley (Brockway Well). We
are receiving some very large bills and the water general fund does not have any money
in it to pay the bills. Therefore, we would like the Board to consider allowing us to make
these transfers monthly for this project automatically up to the limit of Ed's proposed
budget. The charges to date in the newest work order are:
Engineering services $ 85,282.84
Contract services—drillers 191,111.12
Misc supplies/services 250.00
Total $276,643.96
Facilities Fees transfer to date (14,963.75)
Balance to transfer $ 261,680,21
Martis Valley Well Recap:
1) Total expenditures to date $ 276,643.96
2) Estimated budget to complete well 1,645,000.00
3) Total estimated cost of well $1,921,643.96
4) Transfers from facilities fees:
January 1117/2001 (14,963.75)
5) Current transfer request:
February 12, 2001 ( 261,680,21)
6) Future transfers $1,645,000.00
7) Facilities Fees Balances @ 12/31/2000
Pre AB 1600 $ 849,178.61
Global after 5/5/97 579,120.93
8) Total Facilities Fees on Deposit $1,428,299.54
9) Estimated shortfall (8 minus 5 & 6) $ 473,380.67
Recommendation
1) Authorize staff to make monthly transfers from the Water Facilities Fees-Global fund
to reimburse the Water General Fund, not to exceed in total the proposed budget
amount for the Martis Valley Well; staff will provide a monthly status report of
transfers.
2) Upon completion of the project, staff will bring back to the Board the appropriate
resolution to formalize the total facilities fees transfers for the project.
