Why does the Lake Don Pedro CSD consistently refuse to post a legitimate map displaying where Merced River Water (pumped under Merced Irrigation District water license 11395 – which our district surface water treatment plant has used since it was built) can legally be used in this area? Properties outside the 11395 Place of Use MUST use ground water.
While looking at the above map can viewers now appreciate why PETE KAMPA & KOMPANY placed so much emphasis on constructing and developing an “alternate source of water” with public funds? The ground well project was repeatedly advertised as being an emergency drought water supply for existing customers – yet was planned from the beginning (and is still being pursued) to be the solution for land developers outside the Place of Use who can not legally be furnished Merced River water from Lake McClure.
Why should the 99% of legal Merced River water users in the subdivision (for whom the water plant was clearly constructed) pay for this ground water special benefit to land developers outside the subdivision?
THIS IS THE ORIGINAL DISTRICT SERVICE MAP ON FILE WITH, AND USED BY, THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA – this is what was transferred by Sierra Highland Water Company to the LDPCSD with a majority vote of 88 people.

WHAT THE CSD WANTS PEOPLE TO BELIEVE IS THE SERVICE AREA (website)…..,
MAP DISPLAYED ON THE NEW LDPCSD WEBSITE (above)
MERCED IRRIGATION DISTRICT PLACE OF USE MAP FOR L11395 aka the MID POU MAP. MID has always stated NO MERCED RIVER WATER CAN BE PROVIDED OUTSIDE THIS BOUNDARY.
Why is KAMPA & KOMPANY so determined to expand district water service outside the 11395 Place of Use requiring expensive ground water wells designed, constructed, developed, maintained (and eventually replaced) with public funds – for private land development projects?
These ground wells were ostensibly created for the benefit of the legal users of Merced River water in the subdivision during drought water shortages – how can such emergency-intended water be sold outside the POU for private profit endeavors?
Remember this when the LDPCSD comes knocking on your water meter for more MONEY!
My best to you and yours, Lew
