CONSIDERATION OF A REQUEST FROM THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF

The Department of General Services has informed the District that the Department of
Industrial Relations(whose engineers shared office space with the forestry personnel)
has determined that access to the office is of vital importance to their continued
activities in the area. They are requesting that their termination notice be cancelled
so that DIR personnel have use of the office.
Since future use of the upstairs office space by District personnel is still uncertain,
staff recommended renting to the DIR on a temporary basis.
Director Corbett moved, and Director Maass seconded, that the District continue to
lease to the Department of Industrial Relations on a month-by-month basis with no
future commitments. All Directors, aye, by voice vote. SO MOVED.

PUBLIC HEARING - RESOLUTION OF INTENTION RE PREPARATION OF DRAFT
GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN PURSUANT TO AB 3030
The public hearing to consider a resolution of intention regarding preparation of a draft
groundwater management plan pursuant to AB 3030 was opened at 7:30 PM. This
legislation authorizes special districts that provide water service to prepare a
groundwater management plan to protect a groundwater basin.
John Faulk, speaking on behalf of the Tahoe Sierra Board of Realtors, noted that he
submitted questions and concerns about this matter (which he raised at the previous
hearing) in writing as requested by the Board.
Concerning Mr. Faulk's question about Section 1075a 7(a), the Board noted that joint
po wer agreements with Glenshire and Donner Lake Utility are no t necessary, but could
be beneficial; further, it was stated that Glenshire water is not drawn from the Martis
Valley groundwater basin.
Mr. Faulk noted his concern about Section 10753. 70) which says a groundwater
management plan may include components relating to the review of land use plans
and coordination with land use planning agencies to assess activities which create a
reasonable risk of groundwater contamination. He asked the Board to consider what
additional power over and above those already in effect this would give the District;
it was his opinion this language could be dropped.
Regarding Section 10754.2, which allows an agency that adopts a groundwater plan
to impose equitable annual fees and assessments for groundwater management, he
questioned if this would be prudent financially.
John Eaton, relating to Section 10753, stated it is necessary to the health and growth
of the Town of Truckee. He said if subsection (1) is not included, there will need to
be some mechanism by which contamination is dealt with. It was his opinion that it
is essential to know what the District's resources are.
