Charter school honors seven Valley seniors
"The unspoken requirement of commencement
is to commence ... You must not let anything
deter you from taking those first steps ...
don't spend too much time waiting
for the perfect opportunity, just commit
to the adventure."

Plumas Charter School's Indian Valley Academy

Delleker lifts building moratorium

Manager Juli Thompson cau-
tioned that fire requirements
were only one component in
submitting projects to Plumas
County Planning and Build-
ing Department for approval.
Properties currently uncon-
nected to water or sewer in
Delleker require a "will
serve" letter from GLCSD, at a
cost of $25, in order to get a
building permit. Connection
fees vary according to de-
mands of the proposed project.
Board members andstaff
found several reasons to be
pleased with their progress at
their May 11 board meeting.
Not only was the resolution of
the fire flow issue a relief, but
the newly re-organized com-
munity service district had
received its certificate of com-
pletion from LAFCo, allowing
directors to authorize staff to
change the name on all bank
accounts and to file the
change with all regulatory
agencies.
The special district had also
applied for renewal of its
NPDES Permit (which allows
effluent discharges into the
Feather River) and had been
commended by the state for the
progress it had made in water
quality at the sewer ponds.
District Operator Jared Re-
casens reported that the state
said to "keep doing what
you're doing: it's never looked
so good."
Chairman Maurice Willis
commended Recasens and
District Operator Randy
Mark for the improvements
they had made in aerating the
sewer ponds more equitably.
"Right now, I feel so good, I
don't even go down there any-
more."
Thompson also reported
that the district was making
good progress on reducing
past-due receivables. It had
instituted payme'nt plans to
help customers in arrears to
become current.
Board members were more
than willing to take note of

Delleker property owners
received a welcome letter
from their community service
district last week, informing
them that their vacant proper-
ties were now free to be devel-
oped. The decade-long build-
ing moratorium made proper-
ties less saleable in the indus-
trial park along South Dellek-
er Drive long before the local
real estate market faltered.
In addition, the problem
was hindering plans for Inter-
Mountain Disposal's materi-
als recovery facility (MRF)
currently in the planning
stages. The MRF would ser-
vice all of Plumas County and
potentially parts of Sierra and
Lassen counties as well.
Insufficientfire flows were
the impediment to further de-
velopment and it had been
thought that a 10-inch water
line would be needed to cor-
rect the problem and provide
more water to the area.
Recent examination by
Grizzly Lake Community Ser-
vices District (GLCSD) per-
sonnel revealed that the hy-
drant valves connecting to the
water line were only partially
opened, and re-testing once
the valves were fully opened
produced water flows ample
enough to satisfy county re-
quirements for fire safety.
After discovering this hap-
py news, the testing was
scheduled again with Eastern
Plumas Volunteer Fire De-
partment representatives pre-
sent, who verified that fire
flows at the farthest hydrant
tested at 1,060 gallons per
minute at 60 pounds per
square inch. The Plumas
County Building Code re-
quires fire flows of 1,000 gpm
at 20 psi.

owners, GLCSD's General

their recent accomplish-
ments, but also looked to the
future. One of their next goals
is to examine Fillippini
Spring's potential in provid-
ing water supply redundancy
to the district.
Although" the district con-
tinues to purchase its water
allotment from Lake Davis
per its longstanding contract
with Plumas County Flood
Control District, it has opted
out of using the water due to
the high costs of operating
and maintaining the new
treatment plant. The Lake
Davis Treatment Plant is still
not online, so costs reflect
current estimates.
GLCSD is examining other
options, both new wells and
old springs, to provide for its
future needs. Fillippini
Springs is high on the list.
