None.
2. DISCUSSION ITEMS
2.1. Monthly Groundwater Production and Purchased Import Water Report
Mr. Vecchiarelli reported that water consumption was 23.4% below the
projected demand for the month of October, and overall for July through
October 2010, is 8.1 % below projections. He noted that the lower demand
may be due to cooler weather and early rain. Mr. Vecchiarelli pointed out
that our water supply continues to track at about one-third groundwater
and two-thirds import. A chart was reviewed showing daily average
demand for each day of the week for the month of October. He noted that
average daily demands were down approximately one-third from those in
July, August and September.
2.2. Monthly Preventative Maintenance Program Report
Mr. Vecchiarelli reported the PM report has been revised and expanded,
showing water system maintenance activities on page one and sewer
system maintenance activities on page two. Mr. Cory reported that
maintenance activities are on track. He also noted that in addition to the
listed activities, the water crews are installing meter boxes and upgrading
sampling stations, and sewer crews are responding to service calls, and
making repairs to sewer mains and manholes.

4. DISCUSSION ITEMS
4.1. Casino Ridge Extension YL Outpost - King Family Development (Verbal
Report)
Mr. Vecchiarelli reported that the representative for the King Family asked
that the item be removed from the agenda. Mr. Vecchiarelli noted that the
earlier attachment and recommendations have been superseded, based
on the outcome of several recent meetings with the family representatives.
In those meetings improvements were discussed that District staff could
support and might be acceptable to the Board that might allow the 11-lot
development to proceed. However, family representatives asked for more
time to consider the cost and time implications of the improvements before
bringing it to the PEO Committee.
4.2. Monthly Groundwater Producers Meeting Report
Mr. Conklin reported on the October 13 meeting at OCWD. He noted that
since the time of that meeting, the OCWD Board did not approve the
award of the consulting services proposal for the preparation of the
Program EIR for YLWD, IRWD and Anaheim annexation to OCWD. Since
that time, a modified RFP has been issued to the same four firms for
proposals.
4.3. Status Report on Capital Projects in Progress
Mr. Conklin reported on the status of capital projects currently in planning,
design and construction.
