STATE WATER RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD

RESOLUTION NO. 97-013


APPROVAL OF A STATE REVOLVING FUND LOAN FOR

THE IRVINE RANCH WATER DISTRICT ZONE A SOUTH

RECLAIMED WATER RESERVOIR PROJECT


WHEREAS:


1. The State Water Resources Control Board, on August 18, 1988, adopted the "Policy for Implementing the State Revolving Fund for Construction of Wastewater Treatment Facilities" and amended the policy on September 20, 1990; January 21, 1993; October 20, 1994; February 1995; and January 18, 1996;


2. The State Water Resources Control Board, on September 19, 1996, adopted the FFY 1997 SRF Loan Program Priority List which includes the Irvine Ranch Water District's Water Reclamation Project;


3. The Division of Clean Water Programs has approved the project report, environmental documents, and draft revenue program for the Irvine Ranch Water District (IRWD), Zone A South Reclaimed Water Reservoir Project;


4. The IRWD has an effective mandatory use ordinance, but has not followed full notification procedures for the potential reclaimed water users. However, users are plumbed and metered to receive and use reclaimed water when available, and the District has a considerable history of reclamation; and


5. The District adopted a Negative Declaration (State Clearinghouse No. 96101066) prepared for the project, which has been reviewed and considered and it has been determined that the project will not result in any significant environmental impacts.


THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT:


The State Water Resources Control Board approves a State Revolving Fund loan of $6.0 million for the Irvine Ranch Water District's, Zone A South Reclaimed Water Reservoir Project with a repayment period of twenty (20) years, and the first loan repayment due one (1) year after completion of construction. The State Water Resources Control Board waives the user's notification procedures for this project, and approves a special condition requiring expiration of the preliminary loan commitment if the Plans and Specifications Approval have not been issued by April 1, 1997. The Division of Clean Water Programs may approve up to a 90-day extension for good cause.


CERTIFICATION


The undersigned, Administrative Assistant to the Board, does hereby certify that the foregoing is a full, true, and correct copy of a resolution duly and regularly adopted at a meeting of the State Water Resources Control Board held on February 20, 1997.
