DISCUSSION ITEMS
4.1. Proposition 1 — The Water Quality, Supply and Infrastructure Act of 2014
It was reported to the Committee that Board of Directors voted
unanimously to support the Water Bond, Proposition 1 on the November
Ballot. Staff then answered questions from the Committee regarding the
Water Bond, including clearing up misconceptions about the Proposition
including the Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP) and the Delta Tunnels.
4.2. Drought Update and Water Supply Report
Staff updated the Committee on the continued Drought and reviewed the
water supply report provided by Metropolitan Water District to the District.
In addition, staff shared with the Committee a recent concern expressed
from Metropolitan about the lake levels at Lake Mathews which are at an
all -time low of 47,000 acre feet. If the lake level continues to drop and
reaches the 40,000 acre foot level (volume), Lake Mathews will fall
dangerously close to the hydraulic grade line necessary to gravity feed the
Diemer treatment plant.
