A presentation was made on behalf of the Joint California -Nevada
Interstate Compact Commission, setting forth the results of a water use study
prepared jointly by the States of California and Nevada. The study indicates
that the ultimate use of water in the Lake Tahoe Basin will be approximately
34,000 acre-feet. If and when a compact is effected between the two states,
it is proposed that 65 per cent of the 34,000 acre-feet will be allocated to •
California and 35 per cent to Nevada. The Nevada protestants request that
the Board give some assurance at this hearing that in issuing permits the
amount of water allotted to California will not be exceeded. If such
assurance is given, the Nevada protestants do not plan to present an extensive
case.
The California Department of Water Resources presented evidence
showing excess water in the Lake Tahoe -Truckee River drainage basin during
most years of a 30 -year study between 1923 and 1952. Evidence was also
submitted by the Department showing that with the increased urbanization of
the Lake Tahoe area there would be little if any net increase in the
consumptive use of water unless sewage water is exported from the basin.
One other presentation was made oh behalf of El Dorado County
Water Agency, urging the Board to give careful consideration to the water

needs of the Lake Tahoe Basin before issuing any permits. This is because
the Lake Tahoe Basin is an area of potential water shortage.
During the course of the hearing, the protest by Sierra Pacific
Power Company against Application 18910 of Ruth Shurtleff was withdrawn.
A request was made by the staff of the Board that each of the
applicants prepare an estimate of the proposed monthly use of water in acre-
feet, together with an estimate of the projected increase in use of water
during the next five years, so that a more realistic determination of water
needs may be ascertained. The hearing was concluded with the understanding
that it would be rescheduled upon notice of all interested parties.
