Water districts work to solve problems
by M ICHAEL P JONES
P ost C o r r r tp o n d r n t
The boards of governors
for the five special water
districts have been busy
working toward solving the
p ro blem s
th a t
have
plagued customers the past
five years
The five water districts
were formed out of the ser
vice area of the former
Alder Creek Water Com
pany
The Water Authority of
fically took over the opera
tion and administration of
the Alder Creek water
systems on Aug I Since
that time they have been
struggling to come up with
construction plans for
upgrading or rebuilding the
systems, as well as with a
source of funding to do the
work
The Boards of Cover
nors, which are comprised
of five water customers
from the district's boun
danés. serve for a period of
four years They are un
paid and are responsible
for establishing operating
budgets for their district
and bringing the system in
to compliance with the
fe d e ra l Safe D rin k in g
Water Act
Assisting each of the
districts is a 10-member
board, which is comprised
of two members from each
of the districts Known as
the Alder Creek Water
Authority, its function is as
an in te r g o v e rn m e n ta l
body that coordinates all
the activities between the
districts, as well as share
its resources with one
another
For example, one at-
torney will act as the legal
counsel for each of the
districts, as well as for the
W ater Authority
They
have retained Attorney Ed
ward Sullivan of Portland,
who has worked with the
water users the past year
Jock Stewart, president
of the Water Authority,
said by hiring one attorney
each of the districts will
save a substantial amount
of money
Also, said Stewart, when
pipe has to be purchased it
is much cheaper to order
the m a te ria l for fiv e
districts rather than just
one By buying it in bulk
the cost is reduced
The districts also have
one general manager to
oversee the daly operation
and
c o o rd in a te
the
necessary repairs
Jerry Schmidt, of Oregon
W a te r C on su ltan ts in
Hillsboro, was hired as
general m a n a g e r and
began working the first of
July
Schmidt worked as a con
sultant for the water users
during their fight against
the the Environmental Pro
tection Agency and the
State Health Department
in Federal District Court
The EPA and the Health
Department attempted to
have the five systems
declared a health hazard
and
tu rn ed
in to
a
C la c k a m a s
C ounty-
operated water district.
Schmidt, who helped stop
that action, is optimistic
about the future He said he
believes each of the
systems, which provide
water to an estimated 240
customers in the total ser
vice area of the five
districts, will be able to
comply with the EPA's
time schedule in meeting
the requirements of the
Safe Drinking Water Act
This, he anticipates, will be
accomplished once the
water systems are pur
chased from the V S
Federal Court, which is to
occur soon
Some of the w a te r
districts, said Schmidt, will
have to be r novated, while
others will have to be com
p le te ly reconstructed
Some will even need a new
water source
The engineering firm of
HGE, which has offices in
Portland and Coos Bay. has
been retained and is cur
rently working on the
engineering for each of the
districts, said Schmidt
HGE, said Schmidt, has
a lot of credibility and has
done work in other situa
tions where water systems
needed to be upgraded in
compliance with federal
regulations He said they
did the engineering for
Rockaway in 1980. and
Neskowin in 1978. when
health hazard proceedings
were initiated in those
towns
WILDWOOD
The Wildwood District,
which reportedly has the
least problems of all the
water systems, has a total
of 25 customers
Schmidt said he will
mainly focus his attention
on assessing the system's
future growth capacity to
insure that there will be an
adequate amount of water
to allow additional hook
ups should the need arrive
Board members for the
Wildwood District are John
J Anderson, Ron Staton,
Ronald K French and
Frank and Joyce Fraijo
COL NTRY CLL'B
The
C ountry
C lu b
District serves about 45
customers Its Board of
Governors include Mark
Bachmann. Mary A Bot-
cheos. Robert H Pomeroy,
Beverly Stonebrook and
Jackie L Yates
In the recent bond elec
tion for the district, voters
in the area defeated the
*75.000 levy that was being
sought to operate and
renovate the water system
Schmidt explained that
about half the district’s
population was on the
Country Club water system
while the other half was on
private wells Just prior to
the election, last minute
confusion over some issues
sent a few residents on a
“ grass roots” campaign
They put up posters and
went door to door, urging a
“ no v o te .” The bond
measure went down to
defeat 22 18
Since the measure's
defeat. Schmidt said he has
had a couple of meetings
with the residents in the
area, and more are plann
ed for the near future He
said from these meetings
he learned that the people
were not actually voting
against the water district,
but rather were voting
against government
“ Some of the people op
posing the bond measure
had a basic mistrust in
g o v e rn m e n t,”
said
Schmidt “They are afraid
that government has gotten
away from people, and it’ll
end up running o ver
them ' ’
However, he said the
political structure of the
water district is different
than that of the rest of
Clackamas County since it
is the people themselves
who operate the district
They don't have to go all
the way to Oregon City to
deal w ith the people
responsible for operating
the districts This, he said,
makes the governmental
structure of the district
“viable."
In order to provide
operating money for the
district. Schmidt said the
C ountry Club system
received *29,000 from the
district through a special
provision in the state law
that allows start-up money
from one-half of one per
cent of the total assessed
value of a special service
district The money is to be
used for purchasing the
system, which is under the
control of the U.S. District
Court, and for small capital
improvements
One of the problems in
the Country Club system,
said Schmidt, is the water
pressure However, the
source of the problem has
been discovered He said
recently installed pressure
v a lv e s w ere put in
backward, which cut down
the flow of water The
valves had been installed
by an employee of Gene
G in th e r,
of G in th e r
Engineering, who was the
fo rm e r court-appointed
receiver for the Alder
Creek Water Company
ALDER CREEK BARLOW
The Alder Creek Barlow
D is tric t is the w ater
system with the most pro
blems. according to the
Schmidt, who said it will
have to be rebuilt Current
ly about 55 customers are
being served
Members of the board
are Margo Dempster. Bob
Gordon. Maggi Rands,
Richard T Stone and Or
ville L. Thompson
“This water system has
had a history of problems
spanning a 10- to 15-year
period,” said Schmidt
“ However, it is coming
along very nicely now ”
Schmidt said he recently
discovered a major pro
blem in the system, which
prevented the chlorinator
from working and helped to
create problems He said
for some unknown reason a
check
v a lv e in the
chlorinator was installed
backwards This was done
prior to the formation of
the the new water district
“There are a lot of things
showing upin the water
systems tha’ I can’t begin
to explain,” said Schmidt
“ 1 couldn’t tell you if it was
done on purpose or by acci
dent "
SLEEPY HOLLOW
Members of the Board of
the former owner of the
system didn't bother get
ting permission to cross
these lands
Governors for the Sleepy
H ollow
D is tr ic t
a re
Marilyn L Hill. Everard
Johnson. Charles Peterson.
Jeffery K Shackleford and
Dottie B Shoup
A new system was in
stalled at Sleepy Hollow
less than five years ago but
some protective renovation
is still needed to prevent
future problems, according
to Schmidt
He had anticipated sue
c e s s fu lly g e ttin g , the
easements but apparently
never took the time He
described the process as
being "a paper war" more
than anything else
T h e Sleepy H ollow
system
serves
an
estimated 85 customers
Schmidt said when the
former operator of the
w a te r system , G erald
“ Red“ Bennett, installed
the new pipes, he did not
use the required gravel fill
around them As a conse
quence. the pipes are mov
ing and holes could be
punctured in them
R IVER SID E
It is anticipated the
Riverside District's water
system will also have to be
rebuilt, and "new pipe laid
all the way through," said
Schmidt All the design
work has been completed
and the district is currently
awaiting final approval by
the health division
Once the problems are
corrected. Schmidt said all
the customers on the olu
w ater system w ill be
disconnected They will be
re-connected to the new
sy stem
C u rre n tly about 32
customers are being serv
ed by the R iv e rs id e
system
Schmidt said he is also
busy getting easements
over land administered by
the U.S Bureau of Land
Management and the state
Highway Division He said
The Board of Governors
for that district include
Robert Benson. Nan Slenn-
ing, Jock Stewart and Kylie
B and Richard Milne
