3. Public Comments: None
4. Discussion of the Fourth Amendment to the Joint Funding Agreement for the
Tualatin Basin Water Supply Project
Mr. Koellermeier provided background on this item. Cost estimates for this fiscal year
and next fiscal year were included in packet information. Partners in the project are
trying to arrange funding and are anxious to know if Tigard will continue its participation.
If Tigard does not participate, costs will be distributed among other partners.
Mr. Koellermeier provided the following update on the TBWSP:
■ The governance agreement is nearing completion. This must be in place in order
to accept the title from the federal government. Although some issues still
remain, like the existing power subsidy for the Tualatin Valley Irrigation District,
the agreement appears to be acceptable to most of the partners.
■ Since the Tualatin Valley Water District has signed on, they are trying to
accelerate the project. They want the project to be operational before their
Portland Water Contract expires.
■ There are still many project"unknowns" and cost estimates may be conservative.
Intergovernmental Water Board Minutes March 20,2008
1
■ The partners have asked for Tigard's decision on whether it will remain in the
project by June 1, 2008.
■ In anticipation of this decision, cost and other information for the various water
sources was being updated and will be presented at the Board's April 8 meeting.
Commissioner Scheiderich briefed the Board on following TBWSP issues:
■ Power Subsidies
The federal government currently provides power subsidies to the Tualatin
Valley Irrigation District. Should title transfer take place, agreements would
require the new owners to honor the existing power subsidies; the partners
would have to subsidize the power costs of the irrigation district.
■ Recouping Existing Investment
Should Tigard withdraw from the partnership, there is no mechanism in place
to recoup money already invested in the project. However, both Tualatin
Valley Water District and Clean Water Services would like to obtain more
than their allocated share of TBWSP water. Commissioner Scheiderich
suggested Tigard should remain in the project until it determines it does not
need the water, at which time it could sell its share back to other partners.
Mr. Koellermeier interjected Tigard had spent about $1 million on the project to date. Of
that $1 million, about $200,000 was used to purchase property and could be recovered.
Clean Water Services has offered to front the $2 million for Forest Grove's portion of the
project, giving the city a buy-back option in the future. Mr. Koellermeier asked Clean
Water Services for a similar arrangement, but he has not received a formal response.
Tigard's comparable cost would be about $80 million.
The financial commitment associated with the fourth amendment would be $3,031,579
over the next year. Mr. Koellermeier estimated Tigard's costs the following year to be
about $4 million.
Mr. Koellermeier said he has approached the other partners about returning the balance
of Tigard's investment in the form of wholesale water when the project is completed. The
partners were not receptive to this idea.
Commissioner Buehner:
■ Said the Board had to spend money in order to "stay at the table" with regard
to the TBWSP and was aware that money invested may not be recouped.
• Expressed concern over subsidizing the irrigation district.
■ Said the money being discussed for the TBWSP could instead be used to
fund the start up of the Lake Oswego Expansion and Water Partnership.
Mr. Koellermeier said Tigard's share of the TBWSP would be in excess of $200 million,
with the transmission line alone, costing between $50 and $75 million. This cost would
likely be financed over a 30 year period. However, since Tigard will only be able to
obtain 14 million gallons per day, the City will likely need to develop additional water
sources before the financing for the TBWSP is paid off.
Mr. Koellermeier responded to a question about how much further Tigard could proceed
before it was committed to the entire project. Once the partnership begins to actually
build the facility, Tigard would be contractually obligated to fund its share of the entire
Intergovernmental Water Board Minutes March 20,2008
2
project. The fourth amendment will fund completion of the title transfer process and the
start of project design and permitting.
Commissioner Buehner asked staff to find out what Tigard's share of the irrigation
subsidy would be if the project goes forward under local ownership.
Mr. Koellermeier relayed that it now appeared that title transfer would not save the
partnership any money.
The Board discussed the TBWSP in relation to other water options.
Mr. Koellermeier advised that a decision not to participate in the TBWSP will affect the
city's status on the Joint Water Commission. It is possible the city could still receive
water through the TBWSP without being an owner.
Commissioner Buehner expressed her support of the Lake Oswego Expansion and
Water Partnership as opposed to the TBWSP.
The Board discussed the timelines for the Lake Oswego and Tualatin Basin projects,
along with the TBWSP June 1 decision date. If theTBWSP partners don't receive an
answer by then, it will be assumed Tigard is out of the project. The Board will need to
make a decision regarding its participation in the TBWSP at their April 8 meeting.
Commissioner Scheiderich asserted the TBWSP will be built, while other possible water
projects have not been finalized. He advocated continuing with the TBWSP for the time
being.
Commissioner Carroll said that without some other agreement in place for future water,
continuing with the TBWSP basically provided a $3 million "insurance policy" that the
Tigard Water Service Area would have water. He also expressed support for keeping
other long-term water options open.
The Board asked Mr. Koellermeier to get clarification from TBWSP partners on whether
the fourth amendment and the $3 million payment would commit the city to the entire
project, or if it could abandon the project at a later date.
Commissioner Carroll said the $3 million investment in the TBWSP would allow more
time for the city to solidify the agreement on the Lake Oswego Expansion and Water
Partnership.
The Board discussed using its clout as a partner of the TBWSP to move the June 1
decision deadline back.
Commissioner Carroll summarized the Board's discussion by directing Mr. Koellermeier
to find out how long the Board can delay its decision to participate in the TBWSP and
how much money will be required to fund the project while the decision is postponed.
The Board agreed it needed to remain in the TBWSP until the Lake Oswego Expansion
and Water Partnership, or some other water option, is finalized.
Commissioner Buehner relayed that the upcoming intergovernmental agreement (IGA)
between Tigard and Lake Oswego would commit the two cities to the Lake Oswego
Intergovernmental Water Board Minutes March 20,2008

Expansion and Water Partnership. Mr. Koellermeier said a summary of the IGA will be
presented at the April 15 meeting.
Mr. Koellermeier confirmed he would investigate delaying the TBWSP decision and the
corresponding cost resulting from such a delay.
5. Discuss Proposed Budget and Community Investment Program
Mr. Koellermeier distributed two handouts which are on file in the IWB record. He
explained the handouts were in draft form and about 85 percent complete.
The handout marked "650" is the annual expenditure budget for water and the other
handout was an overview of Community Investment Program projects related to water.
Mr. Koellermeier summarized the handouts. Expenditures are relatively flat. Future water
rates will be based on these documents. He noted the list of capital improvement
projects is accurate, but the figures were not accurate.
6. Water Supply Update
Mr. Goodrich reported:
■ Aquifer storage and recovery wells are full at 262.9 million gallons.
■ Average demand is 4.2 million gallons per day, which is normal for this time of
year.
■ The school district has signed the intergovernmental agreement regarding their
well and this agreement is on the Tigard City Council's March 25 agenda. June
17 is the start date for construction, with a completion date of June 30. License
agreements with the two property owners affected by the proposed work on the
other well on Titan Lane are in draft form. Work can start as soon as the license
agreements are signed and the contract is awarded.
7. Informational Items
■ Update on Tigard Water District/City of Tigard Lawsuit
Mr. Koellermeier distributed a court document which is on file in the IWB record. A judge
dismissed the Tigard Water District's suit against the City of Tigard for administrative
reasons. Tigard Water District has refiled the same suit.
Commissioner Russell provided the Board with a statement from the Tigard Water
District's attorney. The statement is on file in the IWB record.
The Board discussed a handout on reclaimed water from a recent Tigard City Council
meeting. Commissioner Buehner said Clean Water Services may be reevaluating its
position on the use of reclaimed water in downtown Tigard.
8. Non-Agenda Items
Mr. Koellermeier summarized a handout on contaminated water in western national
parks. The handout is on file in the IWB record.
9. Future Agenda Items
■ Update on water partnership negotiations with the City of Lake Oswego.
• Discussion of Water Rates

Project Permitting and Consultation
The major elements of the water supply project have been split into four categories: the Dam Raise
/Road Relocation/Recreational Facilities, the Raw Water Pipeline,Pump-back system and the Joint
Water Commission Water Treatment Plant expansion. Each of these elements shares some similar
tasks that must be completed:
1. Coordinate with various local, state and federal agencies for the permitting of the preferred
alternative. Develop a permitting plan to document the permitting requirements including
permits needed for construction of the preferred alternative. Plan will also include an
anticipated schedule for permit submittals and reviews.
2. Engage all relevant agencies and,ideally, obtain all major permits before the end of the design
phase. Coordinate permitting between different project elements. Develop updated information
related to proposed construction methods, timing of construction methods and design
information. Initiate discussions with regulators to confirm and update findings relevant to the
draft EIS and its permitting requirements and assess impacts on schedule and costs. Conduct
any necessary additional surveys to verify permitting requirements and environmental

Preparation of the RFP's should begin immediately after the selection of an overall project
manager. This process should begin in early 2009. It is assumed that the final design phase of the
TBWSP will be broken down into four separate projects: the Scoggins Dam raise with road
relocation and recreational facility construction bundled with it; the raw water pipeline and pump-
back facility; and the coordination of the JWC water treatment facility expansion. The four majoi
elements will require the following tasks to complete for each of them:
1. Prepare construction documents, receive and evaluate bids.

At all times relevant hereto, Defendant City of Tigard was an Oregon municipal

This action challenges the validity of a public meeting held by the Former Board of the

Effective January 1, 1994, the City of Tigard and the Tigard Water District("the
11
12 District's entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement("IGA") for the Delivery of
13 Water Service to Territory within the District Boundaries. Since the effective date of the
14 agreement,the City of Tigard has assumed responsibility for providing water to residents
15 within the geographic area of the District
16 8.
17 The District continues to operate as a separate governmental entity, representing
18 the unincorporated areas served through the Agreement. The District holds regular board
19
elections, conducts regular monthly board meetings, and is subject to the requirements of
20
the Oregon Public Meetings Laws, ORS 192.610 to 192.710.

15
On or about June 20,2007, a proposed agenda for the June 25, 2007 meeting was

posted on the City of Tigard's website. There is no direct link from the City of Tigard
17
18 website to the District's meeting information. Thus, any notices published on the City of
19 Tigard website did not reasonably give actual notice to interested persons including news
20 media which have requested notice, of the time and place for holding regular meetings.

1 • The Oregonian notice comes under the heading"CITIES," and is not
2 "reasonably calculated to give actual notice to interested persons including
3
news media which have requested notice" of meetings of the Tigard Water

District. Further, due to its vagueness, it gives no "general notice to the

7 • The notice fails to specify whether the meeting is that of the Tigard City
8 Council, the Tigard Water District,the Intergovernmental Water Board; or
9 some other water board.

13
• The notice appeared in a newspaper that is not distributed to all District
14
15
residents. Such residents are both the public at large, and, potentially,

17 "reasonably calculated"to reach the District's constituency.

19 At the June 25th meeting, the Former Board,entertained three material agenda
20 items, which agenda items had not been publicly disseminated prior to the meeting:
21
• It approved the District's budget for fiscal year 2007-08;
22
• It approved a change in the ownership of two parcels of real property;
23
24 previously belonging to the District; and
25 • It approved a resolution amending the 1994 Agreement to substantially

TIGARD WATER DISTRICT STATEMENT REGARDING LITIGATION
As you may be aware,there have been recent news reports that the lawsuit filed
by the Tigard Water District against the City of Tigard, leading to an improper board
meeting which occurred on June 25,2007,was recently dismissed. There have been
reports by the City of Tigard that this dismissal"was with prejudice,"and was the result
of the failure by the District to make a timely appearance.
For purposes of correcting the record,the dismissal was a result of Tigard's
failure to file it motions against the Complaint,as it had represented it would for several
weeks, resulting in an administrative dismissal. Although the court declined to allow
reinstatement,the District filed within two days and has already served the City of
Tigard's counsel. Moving forward,it is the District's intent to rigorously pursue its legal
remedies in resolving the issue regarding the improper meeting of June 25, 2007.
Nothing about the dismissal in any way effects the District's membership,or
participation in IWB meetings.
If you have any additional questions,you can address them to the District
Commissioner Chair, Ken Henschel at(503) 579-8375

Airborne Contaminants Study Released
Measurable Levels Detected in Twenty Western U.S. and Alaska National Parks
WASHINGTON,DC—According to a study released by the Western Airborne Contaminants
Assessment Project(WACAP),numerous airborne contaminants, including heavy metals and
both current-use and North American historic-use pesticides,have been detected at measurable
levels in ecosystems at twenty western U.S.and Alaska national parks from the Arctic to the
Mexican border. The eight core national park areas studied were Glacier,Mount Rainier,
Olympic,Rocky Mountain,Sequoia&Kings Canyon,Denali,Gates of the Arctic,and Noatak.
The study was funded primarily by the National Park Service(NPS)to evaluate the potential
threats to park ecosystems and likely sources of these contaminants.
While the extent of the effects on wildlife depending upon fish for survival is unknown,the risk
to people is considered low and varies given location,frequency and type of fish consumption.
How scientific data are used to make recommendations for people's diets varies between states,
as health risks associated with exposure to contaminants in select fish may be outweighed by the
benefits of continued consumption of traditional foods. Most people are not likely to eat enough
of the contaminated fish to be at risk.
Key findings from the six-year,multi-agency study,which can be accessed at:
htip:(/www.iiatLire.tips.gov/air/Studies/air toxics/wacap.cfin indicate that out of over 100 organic
contaminants tested,70 were found at detectable levels in snow,water,vegetation, lake sediment,
and fish. While concentrations of most of these contaminants were below levels of concern,
others appear to be accumulating in sensitive resources such as fish.For some contaminants,high
concentrations in fish have exceeded fish-eating wildlife and/or human health consumption
thresholds in many of the eight core parks studied.
Results from this project add considerably to the state of the science concerning contaminant
transport and subsequent biological and ecological effects in remote ecosystems in the western
U.S. "These well-documented and carefully analyzed data will provide a basis for evaluating
future changes in the status of these ecosystems,"said Dr. Dixon Landers of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency(EPA)and the project's Science Lead.
The analysis of fish tissue provided a window into the contaminant situation in various parks,
regardless of what fish species were sampled,said Landers.Given that the knowledge of
contaminant concentrations in particular species may aid members of the public when making
personal health decisions,the list of fish species sampled in lakes at the eight core parks follows:
lake trout from Noatak,Gates of the Arctic,and Wonder Lake at Denali;burbot and whitefish
-more-
Airbome Contaminants Study Released—Page 2 of 3
from McLeod Lake at Denali;cutthroat trout from Glacier;brook trout from Olympic,Mount
Rainier, Sequoia,and Lone Pine Lake at Rocky Mountain;and rainbow trout from Mills Lake at
Rocky Mountain.Nevertheless,any one fish species,or lake,excluded from the above list is not
necessarily exempt from contaminant concentrations of concern.
Evidence suggests that the contaminants found in this study are carried in air masses from sources
as far away as Europe and Asia,and as near as the local county.According to Landers,the
presence of contaminants in snow is well-correlated with the proximity of each park to
agricultural areas,pointing to these areas as probable major sources of these contaminants. In
Alaska parks,with little nearby agriculture in the region,there are very low concentrations of
most current-use compounds. However,concentrations of historic-use chemicals in Alaska
systems are similar to those in the other parks sampled,suggesting greater influence from global
atmospheric transport.
The three contaminants of highest concern for human and wildlife health included: 1)Mercury—
a heavy metal emitted through processes such as burning coal for electricity that causes
neurological and reproductive impairment; 2)Dieldrin—an acutely toxic insecticide banned from
use in the U.S. since 1987 that decreases the effectiveness of the immune system; and 3)DDT—
an insecticide banned in the U.S. since 1972 that reduces reproductive success.
Average mercury concentrations in fish from Alaska's Noatak National Preserve were above the
EPA human health threshold for consumption(i.e.,adults eating 2.3 meals of these fish per
month),while mercury concentrations in some fish exceeded the threshold at Gates of the Arctic,
Olympic,Mount Rainier,and Sequoia&Kings Canyon National Parks. Dieldrin concentrations
in fish from Rocky Mountain, Sequoia&Kings Canyon,and Glacier National Parks exceeded the
health threshold for recreational fishermen(i.e.,adults eating 2.3 meals of these fish per month).
Dieldrin concentrations also exceeded health thresholds for subsistence fish consumption(i.e.,
adults eating 19 meals of these fish per month)at all national parks,except Olympic. Average
DDT concentrations in fish exceeded the human risk threshold for subsistence fishers at Sequoia
&Kings Canyon and in Oldman Lake at Glacier National Park.
Concentrations of contaminants in fish were also compared to health thresholds for fish-eating
wildlife. Mercury concentrations in fish at all eight parks exceeded health thresholds suggested
for birds,and were above mammal health thresholds at some parks. DDT concentrations in fish
exceeded the fish-eating bird health threshold in Glacier and Sequoia&Kings Canyon National
Parks.
In Rocky Mountain and Glacier National Parks,some individual trout were"intersex"(i.e.,male
and female reproductive structures in the same fish). This condition is commonly associated with
exposure to certain contaminants(e.g.,dieldrin and DDT)that mimic the hormone estrogen.
Because the sample size was small,however,the extent of the problem and correlation between
fish reproductive effects and contaminant concentrations has not been established for parks in the
study.
Concentrations of current-use pesticides and other compounds,such as the commonly used
flame-retardant,PBDE,were detected at Rocky Mountain and Mount Rainier National Parks,but
concentrations in fish did not exceed human or wildlife health consumption thresholds. Exposure
to PBDEs affects liver,thyroid and neurobehavioral development.
Other participating institutions included the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency,the U.S.
Geological Survey,the U.S.Forest Service,Oregon State University and the University of
Washington.National park resource managers worked with scientists from the collaborating
agencies to plan and conduct the WACAP study.
