Well, perhaps they didn’t receive it? Maybe too busy to send a “Received – thank you – please do not send anymore” lol.
I mean after all, this outside MERCED IRRIGATION DISTRICT Place of Use issue has been, apparently, intentionally and completely ignored by county planning departments and their respective LAFCos for over 37 years as annexation after annexation was approved expanding the district beyond its initial established boundary.
Annexations which obviously forced the MR WECs of the LDP Subdivision into a decades old subsidized GROUNDWATER SUBSTITUTION PROGRAM for developers outside the MERCED RIVER WATER Place of Use – so MERCED RIVER WATER illegally leaving the subdivision could be replaced with extremely expensive groundwater to remedy the violation!
What a scam against the MR WECs of the LDP Subdivision for decades!
Think of all the cost increases and diversions from the priority goal of serving MR WECs quality water for only the cost required for its production and delivery FROM THE SURFACE WATER TREATMENT PLANT and not arsenic contaminated groundwater wells requiring additional treatment, monitoring, and reporting to the State. $$$$ (Sure they might come in handy someday, if all the water isn’t sold to outside MIDPOU land developers.)
But how could such an important variable as WHERE MERCED RIVER WATER could LEGALLY BE SERVED UNDER THE WATER LICENSE not be acknowledged and discussed in all the elaborate “water plans” for this drought prone foothill region?
Yup, just one little, tiny, stumbling block to the (on paper) “KAMPA FOOTHILL WATER EMPIRE” ‘ol Pete was pushing to both County Planning Departments and, apparently, without Board approval judging from the “apology letter to Tuolumne County Planning”.
What was the apology regarding again? Oh yeah, “misrepresentation” of LDPCSD future plans for expansion. What a frigg’n co-incidence. 22 years later….what was that old post of mine?…..REM? The Crosby, Stills & Nash album?……oh yeah…
de ja vu
(click me….I’m a link! lol)
Maybe someone, somewhere, will take a look at this “slumbering annexation” motive for some of the other “bad stuff” going on as our surface water treatment plant has been re-configured into a GROUNDWATER SUBSTITUTION FACILITY to circumvent water restrictions contained in WL11395 regarding PLACE OF USE for MERCED RIVER WATER while making MR WECs of the subdivision almost 40 year old victims of fraud (in my opinion at least). We shall see.
Anyway, no answer? Here’s what I sent……….
