Thomas Frederick, Executive Director, RWSA, included in his report remarks on a November meeting of the State Water Control Board and the

October 27, 2005 public meeting on the local water supply plan

.  The State Water Control Board Meeting issue relates to new waste water nutrient allocations that may be imposed on treatment facilities like Moores Creek in an effort to clean up the Chesapeake Bay watershed to the point the Bay can be removed from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s list of impaired waters by 2010.

“I did in my report include as information to the Board that the State Water Control Board has scheduled a special meeting on November 21st, that is before this board meets again… and we anticipate that the board may consider and may vote on the

wasteload allocations for the James River we have been talking about

Next, on the water supply plan,

has been

encouraging participation

in the public meeting this week and Mr. Frederick gave a brief preview.

“Finally… I would like to mention for the benefit of the public and everyone here that we do have a public outreach meeting scheduled this Thursday night at 6:30, staff will be available an hour earlier at 5:30 at Monticello High School.  We will be talking about the new Ragged Mountain Alternative [aka

Charlottesville Pipeline

] for the water supply plan at that meeting. We will have some updated information on cost estimates and we’ll be talking about possible, really two alternative pipeline routes between South Fork Reservoir and Ragged Mountain Reservoir. The agenda, and the PowerPoint presentation for Thursday night has just been approved and… we hope to have that on the website by the end of the day today or, if not,  by the first thing tomorrow so the public can preview the information in advance.”
