ITEMS FOR BOARD ACTION
Staff met with TRPA and Lahontan regarding
repairs to the pipe line behind Carrow's. They
requested that other possible repair alternatives
be investigated. The District retained Ed Wallace,
from Northwest Hydraulic Consultants, to suggest
and evaluate repair options. Jim Hoggatt present-
ed the consultant's summary and reviewed all of
the options. Staff and the regulatory agencies are
in favor of Option 4, which is to build a new sewer
pump station and new 8-inch forcemain. The pro-
ject would be done in two phases and is estimated
to cost $735,000.

After discussing the pros and cons of each option
at length, it was the consensus of the Board that
Option 4 should be pursued. The design contract
for the pump station will be on the February 6 Board
meeting agenda for approval.
The Board directed staff to write a letter to CaITrans
documenting that the problem seems to have been
caused by the alteration of the stream flow from the
bridge construction project. This could create a
similar problem for the Tahoe Keys forcemain.
No Board action_.
