ADVISORY COMMITTEE REPORT Warren Dawes commented the staff brought a question from a resident in the Arcadia Point area whether he was included in the district or not. He maintained he should not be included in the Totten/Little Skookum Clean Water District. The staff brought maps showing the area in question and the committee noted the persons property was surrounded by people who had been participating in the clean water district. Staff believed the line was reasonable and it was not necessary to change it. The Advisory Board passed a motion they were not in agreement with the person's claim that he should not be in the district. Also-they discussed the budget and determined to delay the July meeting until the staff can get budget figures together. They will call a meeting around the end of July or the first of August. CONSERVATION DISTRICT REPORT Jim Barnes, Mason County Conservation District, noted they have 24 completed farm plans in Totten/Little Skookum Clean Water District. They are working with three additional people. They have 153 design BMP's of which 38 have been implemented. A lot of their time is spent on implementation. Cmmr. Faughender.asked how long it will take to complete the implementation. Mr. Barnes estimated it would take till the end of the year. He added they have had three landowners contact the Conservation District outside of the water quality referral letter. w r ' TOTTEN/LITTLE SKOOKUM CLEAN WATER DISTRICT JULY 17, 1995 - PAGE 3 PUBLIC COMMENTS Harold Fitzwater commented sometimes there is confusion about implementation. He again asked if he could receive the report amounts billed/amounts paid. He questioned a couple charges made to the Clean Water District which should have been billed to EPA for the grant. He also was concerned about vouchers submitted to the Clean Water District for the matching funds for the Conservation District in the amount of$9,000 +. It appears Conservation District billed Water Quality for a matching fund payment which is not a clean water district fee. ADJOURN The meeting adjourned at 2:32 p.m. due to no further business.
