Lake Don Pedro History
• The water system was constructed in 1968 by Boise Cascade and governed by Pacific-Cascade.
• In 1975, it transferred its interests to Sierra Highlands Water Company.
• In 1980, it became a Special District for the purpose of providing water services to the community.

What is a Special District?
A special district is a separate local government that delivers a public service to a geographically limited area.
Special districts have four distinguishing characteristics:
• Are a form of government • Have a governing board • Provide services and facilities • Have defined boundaries

We are an Enterprise
• We are financially supported entirely by the property owners within the District, we must receive enough revenue to cover the expenses to operate, maintain and expand the water system.
• This is accomplished by continuously reviewing expenses and ensuring cost effective measures are in place to provide water at the most reasonable price possible.

What are Some of the Top Issues Facing the District?
• Insure compliance with E.P.A - Safe Drinking Water Act
• Insure compliance with CDPH - state regulations• Replacement of an Aging Infrastructure• Deferred maintenance of Plant and Distribution
System equipment• Drought conditions- low lake levels and the need
of a standby well• Vulnerability Assessment- securing our assets
![Page 25: Lake Don Pedro Community Services District](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062410/568162ba550346895dd345c3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
What Must be Done to Meet These Challenges?
• Review the Capital Improvement Plan • Source Waters• Surface water- ensure sufficient availability with a new barge and float pump• Ground Water- ensure sufficient availability by testing/maintaining Ranchito Well, look
into constructing a second well for standby purposes
• Treatment Plant• Replace aged & broken plant equipment, upgrade antiquated HyperTac system, upgrade SCADA
and telemetry equipment
• Storage Tank Facilities• Install fencing and gates to improve our security and reduce vulnerability to theft and
vandalism
• Infrastructure• Distribution system is over 40 years old. Need to be aggressive with water main and service line
replacements
• Insure CIP is Consistent with our Financial Base

What About Future Goals?
• CSD Subdivision Build-out• OPU Service• Golf Course
• Irrigation Water• Perform Services for Other Agencies
• Back Flow Testing• Cross-Connection Surveys• Laboratory Testing
• Assume Other Services• Trash• Waste Water Treatment• Horse Trails• Etc…

First We Must Focus On the CSD’s Immediate Goals/Challenges
• According To Stephen Covey, author of The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, he mentions that “in order to be effective with success, we must work out of quadrants 1 and 2”.
• Filters of Importance• Quadrant 1-urgent, crises, & deadlines • Quadrant 2-maximizing current opportunities

Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do.
