WHEREAS:

1. The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) previously issued two "Requests for Proposals" for projects to be funded with loans from the ADMLP resulting in only one application being submitted.

2. SWRCB staff was contacted by the Santa Ana River Watershed Group about the possibility of using ADMLP funds to address water quality problems associated with dairy waste in the Chino Basin of the Santa Ana River Watershed.

3. Dairy waste poses a significant threat to water quality in the Santa Ana River Watershed.

4. SWRCB staff developed an ADMLP Project Priority List based on applications received by October 9, 1998.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT:

The SWRCB approves a resolution to establish a project priority list for the ADMLP and authorize the Executive Director or his designee to negotiate, execute, or amend ADMLP loan contracts for projects designated by the SWRCB that are above the established funding line provided they meet all procedural requirements and proceed to loan contract execution within two years of placement on the list.

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 November 19, 1998.
