It is believed an explanation would be in order at this time to clarify briefly our purpose. Tahoe Paradise Water and Gas Co. is filing the petition for change in point of diversion and change in place of use. They currently have five filings totaling 14.33 CFS on the Upper Truckee River in the Tahoe Paradise area of South Lake Tahoe.' Because of Fish and Game Department stream flow requirements, this water in reality is not fully useable.,. The four public utilities,.because of their common problem of water supply, have joined together to hopefully solve the problem of supply and its ever increasing cost. The cost'of drilling for water here on the south shore is extremely high for the water produced. (i.e. - Angora Water. Company's most recent well #5 cost. $20,000.00 plus and water produced is 150 GPM). Tahoe Paradise Water and Gas Co. has drilled two dry holes, -each over 300 feet deep -at a very substantial cost. The record is replete with dry or low producing wells in the area. Obviously, small public utilities cannot afford these kind of costs. The most logical and economic alternate is Lake Tahoe. In the filing for change in place of use, we are increasing the place of use to include the service areas of all four utilities. Thereby spreading the benefits to a much larger segment of the public to whom we arc dedicated to serve. The application of Gardner Mountain Water Co. for 14.33 CFS will be with- drawn if the petition for change in point of diversion and use is granted . to Tahoe Paradise Water and Gas Co. This filing was made solely to save us the approximate 90 days it will take to get an answer on the petition. A Wholly Owned Subsidiary of WHIT -1 INGTON' OIL CO., INC.

We are not making our request for large areas of new development. Our place of use is in existing, partially or fully built . on, subdivisions. The companies have a great responsibility to serve their areas now, and in the future. The companies can perform and •:ill, but need your help. Respectfully yours, TAHOE PARADISE WATER AND GAS CO.
