Phase I, dealing primarily with the South side to be completed by 10/15/90 and set a date of 10/15/94 for Phase II (East side), to be put in if ne- cessary. PAGE - FALLEN LEAF LAKE SEWAGE COLLECTION SYSTEM (Cont.) He further stated Lahontan Staff would set up a reliability assess- ment program with So. Tahoe PUD to determine whether or not the corrections made on the South side (Phase I) were adequate and if so, they will say Phase II is no longer needed. 2) May have District Staff submit a "spill contingency plan" since Phase I has emergency storage, but Phase II does not, in the event there is a spill on the East side. 3) State there is a time schedule for Phase II, if it is necessary to do it, in the environmental documents* for Phase I. *Manager Cofer stated these would be in the form of a Negative Declaration. Chris Thomsen, Director of Stanford Camp, spoke to the Board and gave his views regarding the Phase I solution. Thomsen praised Rick Hydrick on his communication, time and work with the residents at Fallen Leaf Lake. Bill Craven representing Fallen Leaf Lake Protective Assoc. stated their association preferred: 1) A phased approach; 2) Installation of a meter system; 3) District's application for any "fix it" grant monies; and 4) To include FLL District in with the main District, with no special assessments (after the completion of Phase II if that phase should be necessary).
