TERMS USED IN THIS REPORT:
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL): The highest level of a contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. Primary MCLs are set as close to the PHGs (or MCLGs) as is economically and technologically feasible. Secondary MCLs are set to protect the odor, taste, and appearance of drinking water.
Primary Drinking Water Standards (PDWS): MCLs for contaminants that affect health along with their monitoring and reporting requirements, and water treatment requirements.
Secondary Drinking Water Standards (SDWS): MCLs for contaminants that affect taste, odor, or appearance of the drinking water. Contaminants with SDWSs do not affect the health at the MCL levels.
ND: not detectable at testing limit
Ppm: parts per million or milligrams per liter (mg/L)
Public Health Goal (PHG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below, which there is no known or expected risk to health. PHGs are set by the California Environmental Protection Agency.
Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG): The level of a contaminant in drinking water below, which there is no known or expected risk to health. MCLGs are set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA).
Regulatory Action Level (AL): The concentration of a contaminant, which, if exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements, which a water system must follow.
ppb: parts per billion or micrograms per liter (ug/L)
ppt: parts per trillion or nanograms per liter (ng/L)
pCi/L: picocuries per liter (a measure of radiation)
The sources of drinking water (both tap water and bottled water) include rivers, lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs, and wells. As water travels over the surface of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and, in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the presence of animals or from human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include:
· Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria that may come from sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations, and wildlife.
· Inorganic contaminants, such as salts and metals, that can be naturally-occurring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater discharges, oil and gas production, mining, or farming.
· Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as agriculture, urban stormwater runoff, and residential uses.
· 2001 Consumer Confidence Report.docOrganic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic chemicals that are byproducts of industrial processes and petroleum production, and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems.
· Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of oil and gas production and mining
· In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, USEPA and the state Department of Health Services (Department) prescribe regulations that limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems. Department regulations also establish limits for contaminants in bottled water that must provide the same protection for public health.
Tables 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 list all of the drinking water contaminants that were detected during the most recent sampling for the constituent. The presence of these contaminants in the water does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. The Department requires us to monitor for certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants are not expected to vary significantly from year to year. Some of the data, though representative of the water quality, are more than one year old.

Additional General Information On Drinking Water
All drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of contaminants does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. More information about contaminants and potential health effects can be obtained by calling the USEPA’s Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791).
Summary Information for Contaminants Exceeding an MCL or AL, or a Violation of any Treatment or Monitoring and Reporting Requirements:
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about drinking water from their health care providers. USEPA/Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines on appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline (1-800-426-4791).
Well 5 and Well 3 are being used as our source water. They are both functioning very well. There have been no problems with any contaminants during the year.
The conservation of water is greatly appreciated.
California has received a lot of water this year but because of the years of drought the wells are still recovering. In addition to those restrictions imposed by the State, there is:

Board members present – Bill Archibald, David Richman, Blair Hafner, Christopher Klein and Hal Cady. Lot owners present- Kitty Van Stelle, Rick LaBorde
President Comments
NoneVote for Board Members
There were 7 members present and 12 proxies submitted. This was not enough for a quorum. The board voted 5-0 to keep the same board.Water System Status
The water system is OK and is up and operating with no issues.
A lighting event occurred at well 5 which knocked out the telemetry system to that well. The damage was repaired and the system is up and operational.
The main waterline was replaced along a portion of Crowley Lake Dr. to move the line from private property and place it along the roadway. One fire hydrant was also replaced during this move.Water System Status Continued
The water tanks are scheduled to be cleaned in late spring to remove accumulated sediment.
Well water levels- Wells 1 and 4 remain the same, they are not in use at this time. Well 3 is at 52.2 feet, a drop from 50.1 feet from last year. Well 5 is at 136.2 feet, a drop from 135.6 feet last year.
Water usage- Water usage was up from last year. About 15 million gallons of water was used this year, and 31 water users were charged extra fees. Last year about 11 million gallons of water was used and 20 users were charged extra fees.
The new water rates went into effect on October 1st. See the web site for the new rates.Financial Status
There is currently $350,000 in savings, with $45,000 committed to outstanding bills.New Business
Three new houses are under construction and will be added to the system.
Advised membership of the status of a disputed bill. This bill has been settled by the board.
The board discussed policy issues and responsibilities of the Company and shareholders, pursuant to the website and the board meeting of April 2012.
The board made a motion (Cady) and seconded it (Klein) to reaffirm and further clarify those responsibilities. The Board approved 5-0. (See the web site.)
The next annual meeting date was discussed and tentatively set for the first week in October. The exact date will be determined at a later date.
The meeting adjourned at 1013PM
