Old Business. 6A. An update on the Kern River Levee District merger was given by Mr. Core. The Certificate of Completion was completed by LAFCO for the transfer of the Levee District to the City of Bakersfield. The equipment, records and files of the Levee District have been relocated to the City of Bakersfield, Water Resources Department. The final action will be the adoption of the City Ordinance to create the Levee District under the City of Bakersfield Municipal Code. For Board information, no action required. 6B. A status report on the CALFED pilot project grant was given by Mr. Core. The state's staff is unable to maintain their schedule, the CALFED representative still needs to complete the ! I review and approve the recommendations, so this process could take three to four more weeks. For Board information, no action required. 6C. Mr. Core brought the Kern County Dental Society Fluoridation Grant funds before the Board. Assembly Bill 733 passed in 1995 mandated fluoridation of drinking water for systems over 10,000 service connections with the proviso that the costs are covered without using bond I money rate payers money, or any kind of money derived form customer fees. The Kem County Dental Society filed for a grant under Proposition 10 tobacco initiative funds and received $650,000 to fluoridate approximately 13 wells in the southeast area that are within I Company Mr. Core introduced Dr. Robert Reed the California Water Service boundaries. of the Kern County Dental Society who stated that several items had to be achieved within the next 12 months before grant funding can be allotted for the fluoridation of the 13 wells. I Mr. Core recommended that Board authorize staff to assist with the allotment and implementation of this funding and report back to the Board. A motion to this affect was i made by Boardmember Carson. Motion carried. 7. New Business. I 7A. At the last meeting, Boardmember Couch asked staff to look into locating potential recharge grounds, identify the type of zoning of the land, and the feasibility of the land to be utilized I by the City for recharge purposes as an update to the 2010 General Plan. Mr. Core gave an overview of the locations for quality soil and the sites where groundwater can be stored for later recovery. A goal of the City and other water agencies is to conserve and capitalize on I . the best soils to be used for percolation and for recharge to water basins within the County area. The item was discussed at length. A motion was made by Boardmember Couch to pursue the identification of thoSe soils and locations that are conducive to recharge, that I overlay existing waterway systems and to direct staff to work with City Planning canal and staff to produce maps and provide information to update the General Plan as expeditiously i as possible. Motion carried. 7B. Propositions 12 & 13 project status update by Mr. Bogart. Govemor Davis has included $23 million in the state's May budget revise to implement the Kem River Program, a partnership program between the City, Kern County Water Agency and other local water districts. Proposition 13 is the source of these funds, half should become available within the next 90 days, the remaining half would be on a reimbursement basis. Projects targeted for these funds are acquisition of property, acquisition of privately owned water rights on the Kern River, water recovery facilities and construction of facilities for connections between related I systems. Anticipated time for these projects to be completed is 18 months. Also, in addition to the $23 million there is $5 million included in Propositionsl 2 and 13 for improvements along the Kern River Parkway. After much discussion, Boardmember Salvaggio I recommended that a letter be sent from the Water Board to the Kern County Water Agency reiterating that the Kern River water rights stay within Kern County. A motion to this affect was made by Boardmember Couch. Motion carried. ! 2 I 7C. The 2000 Water Balance Report was handed out to the Board by Mr. Core. As a brief I review, the state legislature passed Bill AB3030 in 1992 which required water districts, cities ~ and counties put together a groundwater management plan. Staff researched City records ' ~-' and inquired of other districts to see if City was in accord with AB3030. It took staff three I to four years to complete the report and submit that City was in compliance with AB3030 and are very pleased with the results of the completed study. For Board information, no action I required. '7D. Mr. Core presented the Arsenic regulations for drinking water to the Board. The federal I government is proposing a change in the Arsenic regulation with limits far below existing standards. Fifty (50) parts per billion has been the rule for at least a decade, with pressure now to lower that number. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is going through a public hearing process and asking water utility industries to submit statements, documents and comments for three part per billion, ten part per billion and 20 part per billion levels by September 20th. Mr. Core is asking Board to authorize staff to submit comments in a letter I Board the EPA with comments on the proposed levels with the cost on behalf of the Water to impacts on the Cityof Bakersfield water system. A motion was made by Boardmember Couch to authorize staffto send a letter from the Water Board submitting comments on the I proposed Arsenic levels to the EPA. Motion carried. I 7E. The Ordinance updating Municipal Code Chapter 14.04 was brought before the Board by Water Superintendent Pat Hauptman. An update on Municipal Code Chapter 14.04 is necessary to modify some of the language and clarify some of the clauses that have become I outdated. The Ordinance will be taken to City Council for approval. A motion to approve " was made by Boardmember Salvaggio. Motion carried. I 8. Water Board statements. Boardmember Carson questioned staff regarding the open canals and maintenance of same in the southeast area of the City of Bakersfield. Mr. Bogart responded that there are a number of water districts and agencies responsible for the canals as well as the City. The City has a fencing ordinance requiring all canals within the City, deeper than 18", are to be fenced. I If the canal belongs to a state agency City the cannot enforce the fencing ordinance, but a person has the right to file a claim against the districts as they are agencies of the state. I Boardmember Couch had a question regarding the City's recha/ge areas and the lack of exposure this water supply has to the citizenry of Bakersfield as an asset to our community. i Boardmember Couch suggested that the Water Board take a position in opposition to the freeway/expressway paving over the recharge areas to protect this resource. Alan Daniel, Deputy City Attorney, commented that the City Council had already voted to take a different I position on this planning issue and that the Water Board could agendize and discuss this issue, but did not have the authority to change that decision. Staff will research and update the Board at a later date. ! I 9. Closed Session. Adjourned to Closed Session at 6:25 p.m. Conference with legal counsel - existing litigation.

All plans and specifications provided by DEVELOPER for the parking structure shall be at DEVELOPER's sole expense and shall not be included in the cost for the to~at project. Plans and specifications for the improvements appurtenant to the box culvert shall be included in the total project costs. 3.

SHOULD DEVELOPER FAIL TO COMPLETE THE PROJECT IN A TIMELY FASHION, THE DAMAGES SUFFERED BY CITY BY REASON THEREOF WOULD BE UNCERTAIN OR VERY DIFFICULT TO ASCERTAIN. DAMAGES WOULD INVOLVE SUCH VARIABLE FACTORS AS THE AMOUNT OF WATER AVAILABLE AND THE PRICE THEREOF, THE CONSIDERATION THAT DOWNSTREAM USERS OF THE CARRIER CANAL WOULD PAY TO TRANSPORT SUCH WATER, THE PRICE OF OBTAINING ALTERNATIVE METHODS OF TRANSPORTING SUCH WATER, THE LOSSES OF WATER WHICH WOULD BE SUSTAINED BY USING ALTERNATIVE MEANS OF TRANSPORTING SAID WATER, AND THE DAMAGES THAT MAY BE AWARDED AGAINST THE CITY IN LEGAL ACTIONS WHICH MAY BE FILED BY DOWNSTREAM USERS; ALL OF WHICH WOULD RESULT IN ADDITIONAL AND IMMEASURABLE DAMAGES AND LOSS TO THE CITY AND THE COMMUNITY. IT IS IMPRACTICABLE AND EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO FIX THE AMOUNT OF SUCH DAMAGES TO THE CITY, BUT THE PARTIES ARE OF THE OPINION, UPON THE BASIS OF ALL INFORMATION AVAILABLE TO THEM, THAT SUCH DAMAGES WOULD APPROXIMATELY EQUAL $1,000.00 PER DAY. SAID AMOUNT OF $1,000 PER DAY SHALL BE~PAID TO THE CITY UPON THE EXTENSION OF CONSTRUCTION PAST THE SIXTY DAY SHUT-DOWN PERIOD AS THE TOTAL OF ALL LIQUIDATED DAMAGES FOR ANY AND ALL SUCH DEFAULTS AND NOT AS A PENALTY.

COMPENSATION AND EXCHANGE OF TITLE: DEVELOPER will pay to CITY the appraised value of the finished land, with improv- ments, of $1,286,000.00 unless said appraisal shall lapse by becoming more than one year old and then the DEVELOPER shall pay the finished land value as set forth in a new appraisal, said new appraisal to be paid for by DEVELOPER. The cost of' -4- I constructing said improvements shall be subtracted from the appraised finished land value. In addition, the DEVELOPER will be allowed to retain ten percent (10%)'of the difference between the actual construction cost and %he appraised finished land value as a reasonable incentive. The remainder of the funds, if any, after subtracting reconstruction cost and incentive (if any) from the finished land value shall be paid over to City. In no event shall the CITY owe DEVELOPER any money because of or in any way related to the construction of the project set forth in this agreement. By way of example onl~ : if the DEVELOPER Constructs the project for $1,086,000.00 then the CITY would be paid $200,000.00 minus $20,000.00 to the DEVELOPER as incentive as shown below: Finished land value: $1,286,000.00 Construction costs: 1,086,000.00 To CITY (subtotal) $ 200,000.00 10% to DEVELOPER 20f000.00 Final to CITY $ 180,000.00 9.

His reply is attached: Simply put, he will honor the 1999-2000 Contract amount of"$84,400 - plus" and then, to extend the program to include November-as it once was-, the amount would be "$98,4000 - plus." I also inquired as to a year-round program so as to capture early or late season storms plus summer monsoons during July-September such as we saw this year. That would be at "$133,100 - plus." I urge consideration of the year-round program as we can then say we are doing everything we can to maximize local water and thereby prevent or delay others from stepping in and arguing over amounts generated. Occasionally there are those around and above Isabella who raise such thoughts including the Feds. We will get together and discuss this further before the end of the month. Very truly yours, C. H.
