the school hoard Monday night

attempting to maintain our cash posi
tion in order to avoid borrowing
heavily in November." he said We
expected to have about the same
amount of cash to begin the year as
we began with in July. 19Kb
Because of unusually good tax col
lections, and with the additional
revenue we will receive before
November, we should be able to pav
all ol our bills through that period

water right
The problem comes when a water
master and tw o assistan ts in
Pendleton try to oversee distribution
of water in 4500 wjuarc miles, ladd
continued A landowner may have
an old water right on land not in crop
and a newer water right (that has
been shut off) on land needing water
The watermasler's office needs to
have some way to ensure that the
landowner does n«»t try to use water
from the older right on the ground
tied to the newer right, he said
Irrigation water right holders seem
further confused by the lack ot water
in the creek because Willow Creek
ilam was built for "flisd control and
irrigation" purposes they were told
Its use for recreation, they were
assured was secondary and would
not interfere with irrigation pur
poses It the creek is dry . why isn't
more water let through the dam. so
all water right holders can have their
share, they wonder
It doesn't work that way, I add ex
plained Water rights the irrigators
hold apply only to the normal (low
ol the creek To get the water stored
behind the dam. they must file for
supplemental rights and then have a
contract with the Bureau ot
Reclamation who owns the water
