Hy letter of Hay 9, 1994 warned of impending water shortage. The rainfall in Hay added to the supply in some major reservoirs but has not significantly changed the critical shortage of water. The purpose of this letter is to advise you that water will not be available for diversion under any of your permits or licenses issued by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) beginning on July 1. 1994 and continuing through August 31. 1994 unless otherwise notified. Water diverted during this curtailment period must be from alternate sources of supply. such as groundwater wells, purchased water, or rediversion from earlier storage. These restrictions do not apply to those who divert under contracts or agreements with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation or the Department of Water Resources. including individuals who are members of agencies with contracts or agreements. as long as the contractual limitations are observed. This Curtailment Notice does not apply if there is a section of streambed between your point of diversion and either the Sacramento River, San Joaquin River. or the Delta, where no visible flow of water exists. The existence of visible flow in the stream should be determined when you are not diverting water. Division of Water Rights (Division) staff will be checking the status of diversions under some of the projects covered by water right permits and licenses. If you are contacted by our staff. we trust we will have your full cooperation. In the event complaints of violation of permit or license terms or conditions are received from affected persons. including users holding higher priority rights. the were is required by provisions of the California Code of Regulations to investigate. Those who are found to be diverting water beyond what is legally available to them may be subject to enforcement actions. including fines of up to $500 per day and/or cease and desist orders. We are requesting your cooperation and assistance in complying with the constraints under your water right to conserve the limited supplies of available water. • If you have any questions with respect to this letter. an engineer from the Division is available at (916) 657-0765. Sincerely. Edward C. Anton. Chief Division of Water Rights JUN 131994 •7.:CIfYCFLODI MEMORANDUM. City of 'Public Works Department TO: Public Works Director FROM: Superintendent DATE: , August 9. 1994 SUBJECT: Request For Temporary Adjustment of Lease Fees EXHIBIT 2 AU® 11 1994 City 'flc9 Attached is a letter from one of our tenants, Bechtold and Kirshenman Farms regarding the recently granted five year lease for Parcel a on Exhibit A attached. As you're aware, this 270 acre parcel was purchased several years ago for future disposal of industrial and domestic wastewater and biosolids (sludge) as Lodi grows. Currently very little or no wastewater is available to irrigate this leased parcel. (Engineering design for a distribution system is underway now, but actual construction and operation is a couple years away.) Our tenant entered the current agreement with the above mentioned knowledge and it was reflected in the terms of the agreement. (Annual rent established at $182/a cre/year, upon delivery of wastewater annual rent goes to 3221/parcel/year.) In the interim our tenant planned to utilize inexpensive Delta water from White Slough as the primary source of irrigation water and well water as a secondary backup source. On June 13, 1994 the City and its tenants were informed that beginning July 1, 1994 through August 31. 1994 no water could be taken from the Delta (see attached letter dated June 10, 1994 from California Water Resources Control Board). In the attached letter, Bechthold-Kirschenman Farms proposes to dry farm 50°% of the 270 acre parcel and the remaining acreage will be irrigated with well water. This will obviously drive the cost of their operation up (well pumping) and drastically reduce our tenant's income (dry farming). Our tenant has asked for temporary rent relief until the water from the Delta is again available and/or the City can deliver wastewater on a more continuous basis. Based on the above circumstances I believe Lodi City Council should consider a temporary reduction of rent form $182 to $140 per acre on the 270 acre parcel. E.
