Chair Mortensen stated that included was the proposed budget for the fiscal year 1995/96. This budget is similar to the budget adopted for the 1994/95 fiscal year. The Tigard Water District budget used to include all operations and debt service of the entire water system, however, due to the withdrawal of City from the District in January of 1994, the remaining Tigard Water District budget only includes the activities of the Tigard Water District Board and the unincorporated areas share of the remaining debt service. All other water activities now included in the City of Tigard annual budget. The proposed budget includes as it's main source of funding an estimated beginning balance of $24,000, revenue anticipated during the year are estimated at $9,200 which provides a total of $32,200 in resources at the discretion of the Board. The proposed budget provides for attorney services and engineering services if needed. It also includes charges from the City of Tigard for staff time spent on the Tigard Water District business. The proposal includes a final levy for the Tigard Water District general obligation bonds. The property levy is just over $34,000 and is estimated to result in a rate just over .6/1000. The Budget Committee must make two motions before the budget is sent on to the Board for adoption. First is a motion to approve the property tax levy in the amount of $34,200 for 1995/96 debt service. The second motion is to approve the proposed budget in the amount of $63,145 as amended by the Budget Committee. Once approved by the Budget Committee, the budget will be advertised and be presented to the Tigard Water District Board at a hearing in June for final adoption. Wayne Lowry stated that he had distributed a proposed budget last week. Mr. Lowry stated that he had inquiries from Budget Committee members questioning whether funds were spent from some of the categories. Mr. Lowry stated that some categories had not been spent (Engineering Services, Board Per Diem). He stated that he had put this budget together similar to the way it was adopted last year, on the r..ir..nrr assumption that there will be the same sort of activities as last year. Mr. Lowry stated that this was just a proposal and any changes can be made by the committee, as long as there is a motion and a vote taken. If changes are made to the budget, there are two things to be kept in mind; a) $30,560 is the total amount of funds appropriated, b) $33,200 is the total amount of revenues or resources. Mr. Lowry stated that this proposed budget proposes to approve appropriations somewhat less than resources. There is $2,640 in unappropriated ending fund balance and local budget laws does not allow this amount to be touched during the fiscal year. Mr. Lowry discussed the property tax (second page). This is real consistent with last years budget. The debt service on those bonds goes up a little each year, which accounts for the debt service to increase. The assessed value went up quite a bit more than in some areas. The tax rate is lower than anticipated (anticipated 7.73/1000 and it was 5.6/1000). Of all the jurisdictions in the water system that levied this tax, Tigard Water District had the greatest gain in assessed value. For this year, Mr. Lowry has estimated 6.4/1000 even though the dollar amount to be levied is higher than last year. Mr. Lowry stated that he included a page of expenditure details as he did last year. The only changes in dollar amounts were the staff support per hour figure. Beverly Froude questioned the staff support figure being increased and it was stated that those figures have increased. Rod Kvistad stated that the figures for the staff support do not balance (Wegner and budget). Mr. Lowry questioned what the appropriate figures for Wegner would be ($997.44) and the budget figure ($997.44) for a total of $7,128. Mr. Lowry stated that behind the budget message that was read by Lou Ane Mortensen, there is a income statement balance sheet for the District through this date. The District has spent approximately $12,300. On the back side is a statement that shows the detailed expenditures. Carol Callway questioned on the second page, Special Districts Association Insurance and what this covers? Mr. Lowry stated that the Tigard Water District belongs to a Special District Association and the District obtains its liability insurance through this association. John Haunsperger wanted to discuss the Board per diem and the projected ending fund balance being appropriated into the contingency fund so that the Board will have access to these funds if an emergency arises (last years and this years). Ms. Mortensen questioned whether this should be brought up for discussion in July when Tigard Water District Budget Committee - 5/17/95 Page 2 the new Board member takes office and then move other then? Mr. Lowry stated that this could be done either way. He did state that there was a vote on per diem for the current budget which was that the Board would not be accepting per diem, assuming that the policy would continue, the funds could be moved to contingency and if that changes the Board could vote to change that. John Haunsperger made a motion which stated that the moneys in the Board per diem and the moneys in the projected ending fund balance be moved in the contingency fund for the proposed budget for 1995/96. The motion was seconded by Norman Penner. Eleanor Quimby questioned the reason for having an unappropriated ending fund balance? Mr. Lowry stated that some entities use it to capture their reserve that they want to show will be available for the following fiscal year. John Haunsperger stated that in the past, the contingency funds were set aside and when building projects came up, the funds were available to cover those expenditures. Ms. Mortensen also stated that these funds were used to pay invoices prior to receipt of property taxes in November. Mr. Lowry stated that this Board has not encountered that problem since the only tax revenues were from debt service and also the Water District has a cash flow from the water charges. John Haunsperger questioned when the debt service ends. Mr. Lowry stated that is in January of 1996. A voice vote was taken on the motion which moved the $3,000 down to the contingency which made the contingency $8,640 and the total general fund is $33,200, and passed unanimously. Eleanor Quimby questioned the proposed attorney's fees of $6,300 which is 23% of the personnel expenditures and couldn't a portion of this also be placed in the contingency fund and if needed, be taken out? Beverly Froude stated that last year which was the first year since the merger and they had spent a lot on attorney fees. John Haunsperger stated that in the past we had spent a lot of time negotiating contracts which accounted for the higher attorney fees so placing some of these funds into the contingency would be a good idea. Mr. Lowry stated that there is no limit to the amount that can be placed in the contingency fund but there is a limit to what can be taken out of that fund. Mr. Lowry stated that he would verify what this amount is. Tigard Water District Budget Committee - 5/17/95 Page 3 Commissioner Penner questioned some of these funds being reallocated to the category of advertising and publicity since there will be a need for public education and awareness on water concerns. Mr. Lowry stated that advertising and publicity line item only includes legal advertising and public notices. Eleanor Quimby stated that as a loan officer, when looking at a spreadsheet that was top heavy with attorney fees it posed some question. Mr. Kvistad stated that it is his past experience that people do not like the idea of having a lot of funds in a category with no direct intent for its use. He also questioned hearing that the Board does not anticipate using all the budget funds, and this does not look favorable. He also stated that he is not in favor of placing some of the attorney fees into the contingency. He would prefer reducing the budget that amount. John Haunsperger stated that the District does have limited resources with only receiving 1 % of the water sales within the unincorporated area as revenue. If there is some unforeseen expenditures come up, there are no resources to acquire more funding. Commissioner Mortensen questioned whether there were any fees associated with the closure of the debt bond? Mr. Lowry stated that once that is done, that is it. Mr. Lowry stated that the delinquent taxes on the last two years levy will continue to trickle in for the next few years. Mr. Lowry stated that the limitation on the contingency which limits the amount to be transferred to 15% of the total appropriations budgeted in the fund. This law states that totals which exceed 15% may be made only after adoption of supplemental budget which is a little more involved process than a resolution. Mr. Lowry stated that last years budget was not adopted by line item but instead by the bottom line. Mr. Haunsperger stated that to be kept in mind for this next year is the fact that we are still involved with negotiations for water sources and where we are headed at this point is unknown. Ms. Froude stated that for the unincorporated area in terms of education, funds will be needed to send information to those users in the unincorporated area. It was questioned, whether it would be appropriate to begin designating funds for long term water supply? Mr. Haunsperger stated that there are not a lot of funds available. Tigard Water District Budget Committee - 5/17/95 Page 4 It was stated that it makes more sense to label expenditures specifically than making other line items greater than needed. The beginning fund balance is $24,000 and the total expenses through May 26 are half that amount which makes it appear that the line items include a lot more money than is expected to be spent. Ms. Quimby discussed not having control over some of the costs such as engineering, cost of staff, attorney fees, and Boundary Commission dues. The matter of placing some additional funds into travel, food and lodging to cover three members attendance at conferences versus two was discussed. The Committee discussed placing the funding into the area that is most expected that the funds will be needed. Discussed additional funding for long term water supply in terms of advertising and informational flyers provided for the unincorporated area (approximately 2,000). Mr. Lowry stated that if this is a foreseen cost a new category can be added. Commissioner Haunsperger stated he did not see a need for this purpose since the issue of long term water supply will be a joint effort by the Intergovernmental Water Board to inform all the District which will include the unincorporated area as provided by the IGA. Linda Fox questioned what happens to the funds not expended at year end? Mr. Lowry stated that the $24,000 figure is basically the actual revenue in the current year and the actual expenditures netted out and becomes the beginning fund balance. Mr. Lowry stated that the $24,000 figures is the estimate of what the beginning fund balance will be at the beginning of the 1995/96 fiscal year. Committee discussed the cost of doing a mailing for 2,000 households in the unincorporated area and where those funds would need to be budgeted. A motion was made by Norman Penner that the Committee establish a new line item called Public Relations and move $4,000 from the Attorney's fees line item (which would be reduced to $2,300) be transferred to it. This motion was seconded by John Haunsperger. A voice vote was taken with all members in agreement with one no vote (Linda Fox). Committee discussed the difference between advertising/publicity and public relations being the advertising which include public notices. The Committee discussed changing the advertising/publicity line item to state meeting notices. One of the Committee members questioned the cost of insurance which totals $2,928 (actual expenses) and the proposed budget amount is less is there an expected decrease? Mr. Lowry stated that it is not expected to be reduced. Mr. Lowry stated that the $487.00 has been paid ahead and will not be included in next years budget Tigard Water District Budget Committee - 5/17/95 Page 5 ($2,400). Linda Fox moved to change the insurance line item to $2,600 and reduce the contingency line item by $200 ($8,440). This motion was seconded by John Haunsperger and voice vote was taken which passed unanimously. One of the Committee members questioned the Boundary Commission Dues and Mr. Lowry stated that the Boundary Commission is the entity that deals with annexations and urban growth boundaries. This entity is self supported by charging other governments within their area a certain fee per capita. This fee is paid by the City, County and Special Districts. Committee members discussed the debt service line item which is higher and Mr. Lowry stated that is due to the being the final year and it was not a level debt service so it climbed slightly and secondly, the District's assessed value has increased more than some of the other jurisdictions in the Water District which is what has been used to determine the debt split between the other entities. Mr. Lowry discussed that the City is in negotiations for a long term water source. The City has been talking with the City of Lake Oswego which could involve a large cost to expand their treatment plant and their intake facility on the Clackamas River which would entitle the District to a water source. This has not been discussed in great detail at this time to determine how this project will be financed. According to the City of Lake Oswego this project is approximately $40,000,000 and the City of Tigard would incur about $16,000,000 - $18,000,000 of that cost. The possibility of funding with a G/0 bond or a revenue bond have not been discussed. These capital costs will not be reflected in the Tigard Water District budget, but will appear in the City of Tigard's budget, and will eventually affect all rate payers. Mr. Kvistad questioned the possibility of transferring the staff support correction on the expenditures which results in a $582.00 reduction, and Mr. Lowry's recommendation was to leave these figures as estimated. With further discussion the Committee decided to reduce the staff support line item by $582 by placing that dollar amount into the contingency fund which places that amount to $9,022. Discussion was held on COLA increases. Mr. Lowry stated that TPOA (Tigard Police) have included in their contract the amount of their July COLA, OPEU is not scheduled for an increase since their extension did not include a COLA, and the management has requested a 3% increase which has not been voted on by Council at this time. These COLA's are based upon the CPI. Budget Officer Mortensen stated that the reason for the increase over last years budget amount in staff support has the added support of Mike Miller. Tigard Water District Budget Committee - 5/17/95 Page 6 The Committee questioned whether the expenditure detail a published document? Mr. Lowry stated that this expenditure detail is public record although it does not get submitted to the County. Based upon the income statement for Contractual Services and by the end of the fiscal year all the funds will be expended, will the balance of the expenditure detail ($7,710) a realistic amount to be spent in the future for contractual services. Mr. Lowry stated that the $7,710 is a erroneous amount and should be $7,128 although he stated another figure could be used. Carol Callway made a motion to change the figure for Staff Support to $7,800 from $7,710. This motion was seconded by Beverly Froude. This motion was amended to state that $90 would be withdrawn from the Contingency to support the request for the $7,800 rounding of Staff Support to the budget. A voice vote was taken which passed unanimously. At the request of Beverly Froude an update of what the Committee changed so far was: • Addition of line item above Attorney fees - Public Relations $4,000 • Attorney Fees - $2,300 • Finance Review - 0 • Boundary Commission Dues - $3,400 • Election Costs - 0 • Meeting Notice - $600 (changed title) • Board Per Diem - 0 • Special District's Associated Conference - $400 • Travel Food and Lodging - $650 • Special District's Association Dues - $100 • Insurance - $2,600 • Engineering Services - $2,500 • Meeting Staff Support - $7,800 • Miscellaneous - $500 With a total of $24,850 and a Contingency of $8,350 which will account for the final total of $33,200. Commissioner Mortensen questioned the percentage used for the anticipation for collection of property taxes? Mr. Lowry stated that was 94% which has increased over the last four to five years from 91 % Mr. Lowry stated that $4,980 can be used by a simple Board resolution and anything more than that would require a supplemental budget. Tigard Water District Budget Committee - 5/17/95 Page 7 • At this point with no more further deletions, additions or changes, Mr. Lowry stated that to forward this budget on as the approved budget, the Tigard Water District board needs to make two motions. One motion is needed to deal with the property tax levy which is one of the main functions of the budget committee to approve tax levies (once approved by the Committee, the Board cannot change that). The second needed motion is to approve the proposed budget in the amount of $65,785. Board Member Penner made a motion to approve the property tax levy in the amount of $34,210 for 1995/96 debt service, this motion was seconded with a voice vote taken and passing unanimously. A second motion was made by a Committee Member to approve the proposed budget for 1995/96 in the amount of $65,785 as amended by the Budget Committee. This motion was seconded with a voice vote taken and passing unanimously. Mr. Lowry stated that he would advertise the budget as amended for a budget hearing to be held at the next Tigard Water District Board Meeting on June 26, 1995. Mr. Lowry stated that this would be a public hearing. There will be two notices, one with some special budget forms that outline the budget proposal and a follow up ad eight to fourteen days prior to the meeting. He also stated that the Budget Committee has the ability to change the budget 10% from any fund but cannot change the tax levy without going through the re-publishing process. Mr. Lowry stated that if there were any questions between now and the next meeting, that he could be contacted. Mr. Haunsperger wanted to express his appreciation to the Budget Committee for their time put into this endeavor. Paul Johnson a resident from the Walnut triangle stated that he appreciated being allowed to attend and observe the process.

In addition to the article, the Oregonian published an "In Oregon" section. In this section Tigard was identified as being one of three water service agencies, serving a population base larger than 10,000, that had the most violations. The Oregonian article does not identify the standards that were violated. The article in the Oregonian states: "There is widespread violation of EPA's drinking water health standards and testing requirements, while enforcement is rare. The Safe Drinking Water Act and the source water provisions of the Clean Water Act need strengthening. Adequate funding is needed to restructure or upgrade water systems and to assure safe drinking water now and in the future. In Oregon, 1,492,000 people served by 729 community water systems have violated one or more health standards, treatment techniques, and monitoring and reporting requirements. In Oregon, there have been a total of 3,079 community water system violations". The article does not identify, nor does the NRDC briefing paper, what standards were violated. The article also does not state how or where EPA enforcement efforts might be improved. The City of Tigard makes every effort to comply with regulations and supports research efforts that identifies compliance activities that meet the intent of the law as well as give our customers good return for their rate dollar. After reviewing the Oregonian article, I contacted Mr. Dave Leland, Manager of the Oregon Health Division's Drinking Water Program, and found that the only violation that Tigard had was due to some confusion with the population base of our service area. The confusion occurred in December 1994, when the Health Division records indicated that our population base was higher than what we were reporting. The number of monthly routine water samples is determined by population. Because of the confusion, we came up two samples short for the month of December. This was technically a violation of the Safe Drinking Water Act, but was very minor, and was nothing more than a clerical error. We collected additional samples in January and have since adjusted the total number of samples to be taken each month based on the Health Divisions population base for our service area. Mr. Leland stated that minor violations, such as this one in our service area, are reported in a data base to the EPA. The data base does not distinguish between the severity of the June 2, 1995 Oregonian Article 06/06/95 Page 2 irr violations nor does it contain remarks about the violation. It is simply raw data. This is the same data the NRDC based its report on. In no way does the violation indicate that the quality of our drinking water failed to meet Safe Drinking Water Act standards. Microbial or chemical contamination had nothing to do with our violation.

Ohio: and orn WATER May 30, 1995 RESOURCES CITY OF TIGARD DEPARTMENT 13125 SW HALL BLVD TIGARD, OR 97223 REFERENCE: File(s) S-80342 We have received your application(s) for a water use permit along with your supporting data, documentation, and fees. A receipt is enclosed here unless you were previously issued one. Your application has been assigned the above referenced file number. Please refer to this number whenever you contact us about your application. Even though your application has been received, filed and assigned an application reference number, no authorization has been granted to develop your water use. The filing of an application does not create a water right. Water may not be used until a water right permit has been issued by the Department. After an application has been accepted for filing, public notification of the application is made, followed by the mandatory 30-day comment period. Thereafter, applications can be considered for processing as time allows. At present the Water Resources Department has a backlog of several thousand applications for water use permits which has delayed our application processing time. In general, applications are processed in the order in which they are received. However, Department staff work through Oregon's 18 river basins on a rotation basis often completing work on all applications within a single basin, then proceeding to the next basin. The processing of an application does not guarantee that a water right permit will be issued. Each application must undergo specialized analysis called a technical review and a public interest review. Until your application is reviewed, it is not possible to determine whether your particular proposed water use will be recommended for a permit. The Water Resources Commission is considering the adoption of rules to protect stream flows for fish species. This action is being contemplated in response to current and future Endangered Species Act fish listings, including many runs of salmon, steelhead and resident fish throughout the state.

REFERENCE: File(s) - S-80342 The proposed rules, if adopted, could limit the issuance of new water right permits in certain areas of the state. If and when the Commission adopts these rules, new criteria or restrictions may be imposed on water use applications received after: July 17, 1992, for use of water in the Upper Columbia/Snake Basin (above Bonneville Dam),including the mainstem Columbia and Snake Rivers and the Hood, Deschutes, John Day, Umatilla, Grande Ronde, Powder, Malheur and Owyhee Basins; April 8, 1994, for use of water in the North Coast, Mid Coast, South Coast, Rogue and Umpqua Basins and the Clackamas Subbasin of the Willamette Basin; and June 3, 1994, for use of water in all Oregon basins. When the report on the technical review is completed and sent to you, a 60-day objection period begins during which you, the applicant, or anyone who has expressed an interest in your proposed water use may communicate to us their disagreement with what we have said in our report on your application. After the 60-day objection period, the Department conducts the public interest review and considers any objections which have been made. After any objections have been considered, there may follow time to allow parties to resolve conflicts over the proposed water use. In addition, a 30-day protest period may be required. Lastly, it may be necessary to schedule a hearing or send the application to the Water Resources Commission for their review. If your application is recommended for approval and a permit is issued, the use allowed by the permit will be subject to the Basin Program Rules of the Water Resources Commission, instream flow requirements, the demands of prior right holders and other conditions to conform the water use to particular standards. Please contact a Water Rights Research Assistant of the Water Resources Depai tment if you have any questions.

Eleanor Clark CRRILO, League of Women Voters Metro Regional Water Supply Proposal Process: Greg Nokes The Oregonian Lorna Stickel reviewed the progress report for the Jack Polans self-writer Participants Committee (see Attachment A). Lorna Don Roberts discussed the framework of the water supply plan and Peggy Murphy Portland WB how elements of it might be used by the METRO Council as part of their 2040 Region project. Rosemary Furfey, METRO staff; reported that METRO expects to participate in the planning process for the next 9 months so their Council will be committed and educated about the final plan. METRO expects to use the portions of the Regional Water Supply Plan relating to growth management and land use as they develop the water • • Participants Committee Meeting 410. March 28, 1995 Page 2 resource element of the Regional Framework Plan. The METRO Council is required to hold public hearings for this process. Rosemary anticipates the council will accept the plan. She said open space and housing density were important as they might affect the ability of water providers to site facilities. (See Attachment B.) Lorna referred to the METRO Council's proposed revisions to the Regional Urban Growth Goals and Objectives (RUGGOs). Goal No 9, regarding Watershed Management and Regional Water Quality has been revised since the Committee last reviewed it. Goal No. 10, Water Supply, is a new goal with corresponding objectives. Lorna said to contact Lorna or Rosemary Furfey if there are questions. Rosemary offered to give a presentation on the RUGGOs to the Participants Committee. Lorna is on the MTAC and is responsible for taking concerns and providing input to METRO. Amendments to the RUGGOs will be decided in July. Public Involvement Strategy Update: Lorna reviewed the public involvement strategy update prepared by Brad Higbee (see Attachment C). It incorporates comments from the participants Public Involvement Subcommittee. The Portland Water Bureau is preparing a project information sheet, designed for the lay person. The Oak Lodge Water District is revising Portland's "Million Thanks" brochure to a generic version so it can be used as an information piece by any of the participants. Tom Hoffman expressed concern ` over developing a master mailing list based on the returned coupons from the "million thanks" brochure. Lorna suggested that participants keep track of who they send the information sheet to and who is interested in receiving more information. Lorna said invitations will be sent to interested stakeholders and an announcement placed in the paper for a Public Forum in May. She said the focus groups will help people weigh and balance values. In response to a question from Rosemary Furfey,Lorna clarified that there will be an additional forum after the preliminary plan is released in July. There have been suggestions about public interest in trying to get on television shows such as NW Reports, Oregon Field Guide, and Town Hall. Some of the providers may approach cable TV in their area. Lorna said Portland Commissioner Mike Lindberg is interested in developing a short, professionally produced video, similar to video projects for West Side Light Rail and others. She said it is expensive, $2,000/minute, and the discussions continue. Commissioner Lindberg may make a proposal to the Steering Committee regarding a way to reduce the cost of the video. Alan Fletcher noted this is not in the budget and it would have to be approved by the Participants. Lorna said the Washington County Forum scheduled for May will be videotaped. Project staff and Participants are working on getting space at the three county fairs. The speakers bureau hasn't been officially set up, although Lorna and Roberta have been asked to provide many presentations. They have received good feedback on the project slide show. Lorna offered project 14.0 staff assistance to providers interested in giving presentations. John Thomas asked when the staff would set a date for the participating agencies/elected officials workshop. Lorna said the consultants are still refining the IRP model assumptions. Greg DiLoreto suggested scheduling the workshop for the next participants committee meeting; Lorna noted she would be out of town that day and recommended a date be set for late April or early May. Participants Committee Meeting March 28, 1995 Page 3 Public Comments: None. Other Business: ■ Groundwater Inventory Lorna referred the group to the memo, Small Source Groundwater Inventory(see Attachment D). Water Bureau staff assisted Murray Smith& Associates by producing this inventory as part of the transmission analysis and for the IRP modeling. She asked that the Participants review the report and those with comments or those with additional wells let her know. She said they represent a fair amount of water. Tom Erwert said the Steering Committee is concerned that the status of the wells be accurate regarding current and future use. Lorna said they are following up on information on surface water sources. • Conservation Report Duane Robinson thanked the Regional Conservation Coalition for their Ietter on the latest conservation report. He said they worked very hard on it and the conservation work will be a highlight of the study. • Water Quality Rankings Duane also expressed concern about the City of Portland's Water Quality Advisory Committee's concern over using a national perspective to rank sources. Duane said the committee's bias is toward water quality, which leaves out perspectives on quantity and transmission. Duane said this committee is charged with having a narrow perspective and he feels their framework is not broad enough for a 50-year study. • Aquifer Storage and Recovery Jesse Lowman discussed a meeting with legislative leaders on a bill to authorize ASR. He said there was good response and input. DEQ didn't testify, OEC and Water Watch were both supportive. Comments included questions about water rights. Jesse felt that DEQ does not see nitrates as a serious concern. A work group will meet March 29 to discuss and refine the bill. ■ National Pollution Discharge Elimination System Permits Jesse also expressed concern about waste water and NPDES permits. He asked if there should be a work group to discuss this. He said DEQ is becoming aggressive in applying the rules and regulations to water supply facilities. Vergie Ries said Beaverton has to get permits to flush water lines and drain reservoirs. Greg DiLoreto said that Gresham needs permits to do hydrant flushing. Vergie said she was in a meeting where Oregon Health Division and DEQ were disagreeing on the interpretation of the law. Greg suggested OWUC might be the place to deal with these regulations resulting from the Clean Water Act. Tim Erwert noted this topic is not in the scope of the intergovernmental agreement for the planning project. He felt individual governments could get together to address this issue. Tim asked Jesse to report on this item at the next Participants Committee meeting. ;w,,,, Meeting adjourned at 2:50 p.m. Submitted by Peggy L.

A meeting of the public involvement subcommittee will be set up prior to the next steering committee. 2)Staff have met with BCI staff to discuss the conservation prograreport and the review process for the Conservation Coalition and the Steering Cprogram report to review that document. 3)Staff attended a meeting at WRD in Salem onthe budget issues regarding the state funded share of a Corps reauthorization study for the Willamette projects on February 23. WRD staff will present an alternative for the participants to review for presentation to the legislative subcommittee responsible for reviewing the WRD budget. The ideas discussed ways to reduce this biennium share including such things moving to a four year time span, when the actual start date would be,and if other local match shares could be.generated. A fair amount of time was spent discussing the potential opposition of the agricultural community to having a reauthorization feasibility study conducted at all. 4)Staff reviewed the Columbia River National Estuary Program nomination agreement. Contact DEQ staff to suggest that the discussion of beneficial uses note that the Columbia is under study as a potential municipal supply source for the Portland metropolitan region. 5) Staff made a presentation to the Water Services Leadership Group meeting on March 6 about the outcomes for the Phase 2 process and the public involvement process. 6)Staff attended the Metro WRPAC subcommittee on Water Resources and Open Spaces meeting on March 8. The Metro work program for refining the Metro 2040 growth management decision was outlined and this group provided input on the refinement of the unbuildable lands inventory and discussed the type of recommendations that might be made about adequate standards for providing adequate water management inside the UGB. 7)Staff met with three members of the Denver Water Depaitinent to discuss with them the IRP process and desired outcomes of the RWSP for our region and how this compared with the situation in Denver. 8)Staff attended the Metro MTAC meeting on March 9and received information on the refinement of the population forecasts that Metro is conducting at this time. The major point is that the area has grown faster than prior predictions since 1990 and this has New resulted in less land supply left inside the current UGB than was anticipated. The more detailed Metro 2015 population forecasts are being developed now and will likely reflect these faster growth rates. 9)Staff has coordinated the printing and distribution of the conservation program to the Col/Willamette Conservation Coalition. err► VOW 10)Staff have met with the consultants to discuss revisions to the environmental rankings based on the review of these materials as drafted. 11)Staff participated in the public involvement subcommittee meeting which occurred on March 10. 12)Staff have been working to assist in any refinements to the current water system assumptions as they will be reflected in the IRP model,particularly those related to the Portland wellfield and some of the smaller systems as they play into the transmission analysis. 13) Staff made presentations to the Geological Society of the Oregon Country and the Portland Garden Club about the RWSP utilizing the slide show, handout materials, and discussion. 14) Staff met with Metro staff to discuss the adoption process for the RWSP and the Metro role in that adoption process as well as aspects of the Metro water supply element of the Metro Regional Framework Plan. A report will be made as a part of the PC agenda for March 28. 15) Staff attended a Metro MTAC meeting on March 23 and listened to discussions about the redevelopment land survey and some bills being considered by the Legislature on standards for the urban growth boundary and on expedited hearings processes for subdivisions in urban growth boundaries. 440 16) Staff reviewed and provided comments to Montgomery Watson about the results of the analysis of flow impacts from a third Bull Run dam in the Bull Run and Sandy Rivers. The results of this analysis will enable a representative mitigation strategy to be incorporated into the IRP process to reflect the costs involved with flow mitigation. 17) Staff attended the Col/Will Conservation Coalition meeting on March 21 along with consultant staff at which the conservation programs packages were discussed and reviewed. Staff is coordinating the response from the Coalition for the Steering Committee. 18) Staff have met with Montgomery Watson to discuss the refinements to the evaluation criteria, rankings, and justification language for the water quality and the environmental elements.
