DISCUSSION ITEMS
OCWD STAFF PRESENT'
Virginia Grebbien, General Manager
Roy Herndon,
1. MTBE Plume
General Manager Payne requested OCWD to prepare a short presentation on the
MTBE plume to bring to the next committee for discussion.
2. Richfield Plant Modeling of Groundwater basin
The issue of the modeling of the groundwater basin near the Richfield plant was
discussed. The issue of pumping levels when the Warner basin is drained was also
discussed.
3. Basin Production Percentage Projections
Virginia Grebbien, OCWD General Manager presented the committee with OCWD's
"Draft" 2010 Rate plan. This plan included graphs reflecting the proposed basin
production projections (BPP) as well as overdraft conditions. The BPP is currently at
66% and could go as low as 57% during normal years and as low as 42% during
drought conditions.
4. Replenishment Assessments
Virginia Grebbien, General Manager, referred to the graphs in the OCWD's "Draft"
2010 Rate plan. The RA is currently at $172 per acre/foot and could go as high as
$252 per acre/foot in 2009-10 during normal years and as high as $272 per
acre/foot in 2009-10 during drought conditions. This does not include any loss to
the state. OCWD will lose $7.4 million as a result of the state's financial problems.
This will increase the RA $24 per acre/foot. OCWD staff is proposing to pass these
losses on to the groundwater member agencies; however, it has to go to the Board
in April 2005 with an effective date of all water pumped after July 1, 2005. The
invoices will not be due until January 1. 2006.
5. Program Environmental Impact Report (PEIR)
Michael Payne asked Virginia to comment on the status of the proposed MOU
Agreement between YLWD and OCWD. Ms. Grebbien handed out a copy of an
agenda report that was scheduled for the OCWD Board of Directors agenda
November 17, 2004. The OCWD staff recommendation is to not approve YLWD's
proposal.
The committee adjourned at 5:35 p.m.
