GENERAL MANAGER'S REPORT
13. General Manager's oral report and comments.
a) General Counsel Kidman mentioned the changes the District made because of threats
from Sacramento to take tax revenue. This year nothing happened, because revenue
enhancement was not seriously considered.
b) Fats, Oils and Grease notification. Lee Cory, Operations Manager, spoke about the
water discharge order. Zero sewage spills is one requirement. Orange County
Sanitation District is the lead agency of this effort. With respect to the FOG program, a
lot of spills have been attributed to excess fats going into the drains and causing
buildup. Part of the program is public outreach and education. Agencies are being
asked to join together to fund the outreach program. The dollar amount would be
divided by population of respective agencies. It appears this option will be less costly
than the District doing it on its own.
c) District activities. The District's Employee Recognition Dinner will be held December
13. President Summerfield, Vice President Mills and Director Beverage indicated they
would attend.
