Interesting Items:

      • Net zero adjustment – actual costs offset any adjustments due to projects requiring additional funding.
    • Item 9, pdf Page 55, Midyear Update of the Districts Fiscal Year 2017-18 Strategic Plan Goals and Objectives
      • Progress is moving well, some objectives have been completed, no delays.
  • Treasures Report:
    • Item 10 b, pdf Page 85, Ending Balance $46,341,0999
  • Monthly Demand (Acre Feet)
    • Actual Year to date, 16,317 AF, Budgeted Year to date 15,017 AF an increase in 8.7% in water use (due to warm weather)
    • Conservation status 96 gallons per capita per day.
 
MY Water Politics:
  • My seat was not renewed for the ACWA (Association of CA Water Agencies) Communications Committee  – how IRONIC! I am hoping that it was just a mistake and put me back on, for Region 10 (Orange County and San Diego County) there are 5 people from Orange County and Only 2 from San Diego County…that seems very odd, since the last time I checked San Diego County is A LOT bigger than Orange County and perhaps the same or more in population!

Helix Water District owns Lake Jennings and Lake Cuyamaca. Helix Water District customers receive water treated at a 106 MGD R. M. Levy Treatment Plant in Lakeside. Helix also has storage rights of 10,000 acre feet in El Capitan Reservoir for water from Lake Cuyamaca, San Diego River tributaries, and imported water. Treated water is stored in the 30-million-gallon Grossmont Reservoir, under the grass at Harry Griffen Park, and 21 other storage tanks located throughout the District. The District has a total storage capacity of 63 million gallons for filtered water.
