I Under the Head of New Business = )( PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 1 CLALLAM COUNTY, WASHINGTW Port Angeles, Waahington July 1, 1944 Board of Commissioners , Ci ty of Port Angeles, Port Angeles, Washington Gentlemen: PuIllic Utility District No.1 of Clallam County, Washington plans to construct a water system in the territory irr.mediately east of Port Angeles, to serve the people living in that area with water for domestic; purposes. This syetem will be knOlfn as the East Unit, and ultimately will be a part of a larger rural system which will include a considerable area south of theCitYj such system to be supplied with water by means of a dam on Ennis Creek, and a 2,000,000 gillon storage reservoir at the approximate elevation , of 600 feet (U.S.G.S.), or about 180 feet highsr than your present City ressrvoir. It will be possible at several points to cOMect the trunk mains ext.nding from the proposed reservoir with the supply mains of the City. I We wxlerstand that a t present only about one'-half of the water delivered by your Morse Creek supply line is used, and that the surplus water is wasted in Peabody Creek. Preliminary surveys have shown that for the East Unit alone, the most practical method of obtaining a water supply would be to conr.ect with your MOrlle Creek supply line at the point at which it crossea the Golf Club road, or some other convenient point east of the City. The East Unit will use only a small part of your surplus water, possibly 100,000 gallons per day, as an average. ""'." I .'-;1." : We lIOuld like to arrange with you for such a cOlUlection, and for the purchase of surplus water, with the wxlersta nding that the District will bear ttle full cost of the proposed connection; will provide storage adequate for the East Unit; and will iMtall the necessary purification apparatus. We believe thst the City should give the District a very low rate during the fOI'IIGti ve period, because (1) the proposed Ennis Creek dam and storsge reservoir would be a valuable standby for the City Water Departllllnt; (2) the surplus water we would like to purchase at present haa no other sale value to the City; (5) the City should be vitally inter(~sted in the upbuilding of the outlying territory. The East UnUe must operate upon a close margin until it is built up; but the following initial rates would not be burdensome. ....
