C.        UPDATE:  DAM REMOVAL AND NOAA SCOPE OF WORK ISSUES

DESCRIPTION:  The Board discussed progress regarding the dam removal and a recent meeting with Leah Mahan of NOAA. Additional discussions were had with Lisa Huelette of the Goldridge Conservation District regarding their proposed project and whether the CMRP dam project and Goldridge creek project would dovetail thereby saving time and dollars. It was the Board’s feeling that total removal of the dam is the best option based on the information in the Questa geotechnical report. It was the feeling of the Board that further discussions with Questa, the CMRP Board, Leah Mahan of NOAA, and the Goldridge Board would be appropriate.  Gary Helfrich advised that an environmental review would be needed.

DESCRIPTION:  Rich Ingram advised that the Anderson Hall project is out to bid and will be awarded on July 12.  The construction will begin after Labor Day.  The Board inquired about the installation of a fire sprinkler system and Rich advised that should be done separately.  Contractors will be contacted for an estimate for the sprinklers that will include outside service.  Rich anticipates that the cost will be between 25K-30K.

 

F.                 GUARD RAIL AT BEACH PARKING LOT.

 

DESCRIPTION:  The Board discussed replacement of the guardrail at the beach parking lot and repairs to the road exiting the post office.  Fred Meyer will contact the appropriate parties to determine costs.

 

 

VIII.      MONTHLY REPORT OF THE DISTRICT ENGINEERS, BRELJE AND RACE.

           

Rich Ingram advised that the EIR is moving ahead. There has been some clarification of the schedule that will require changes to the CMRP contract.  At present he anticipates NOP about 8/16; a Scoping Session in late August or early September; a draft document mid-December 2006; and Final EIR mid-February 2007.  Rich stated that the documents call for a supplemental EIR; however, it may be more appropriate to prepare a subsequent EIR.  Discussion ensued regarding the definition of each with Rich advising that the final document is almost identical.  He recommended that the Board discuss this with the District’s attorney.  Gary Helfrich stated he will inquire of LAFCO the steps necessary to get the sewer district established and will bring that information back to the Board for follow up action.  The Board also recognized that the OCSD will have to define their boundaries as well, but that appears to be action that will have to be initiated by the County Supervisors who are responsible for the Occidental boundaries.
