Karen Wessels, President/Chairman <br />Windsor Chacey, Secretary/Treasurer <br />Carrie S. Weiss, Manager <br />Gene Tautges, Assistant Manager <br />Steve Hartvigsen <br />Robert Huff <br />Harold Slavinski <br />had arrived, area hotels were filled and restaurants were busy thereby making it impossible to begin <br />installation of the water efficient fixtures until April. Installation began immediately following the <br />departure of the throngs of visitors. <br />Due to the aged nature of some the "historic" buildings, there were some installation challenges <br />that caused unexpected delays and required extra effort; however, all obstacles were overcome and <br />the fixtures were successfully installed. <br />Steps Remaining <br />As of May 1, 2010, the District has begun tracking the water use at the participating businesses. The <br />new use patterns will be compared to the establishment's use in years past. This tracking will <br />continue for 1 year with a 9 month final report and water analysis being submitted to CWCB in <br />February 2011 thus fulfilling the requirement set forth by CWCB. <br />There are still a handful of fixtures that have not yet been installed due to the differences between <br />the projected amount of fixtures needed and the actual. The District is not seeking reimbursement <br />from the grant funds for these uninstalled fixtures. It is anticipated that an appropriate location will <br />be found and these orphan fixtures will be installed in the next few weeks. <br />The District is awaiting the arrival of the appropriate signage to accompany the new fixtures <br />installed. Final site visits and inspections will be conducted simultaneously with the installation of <br />signage. <br />Thank you for the support and assistance in the Smart Water Audit project. Our efforts have been <br />well received by the community and the quantifiable outcomes of the program are being anxiously <br />awaited. <br />Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Respectfully, <br />e <br />Mat deGraaf <br />Conservation Coordinator <br />Cc: Tracy Bouvette, Great Western Institute <br />100 Lyn Avenue www.pawsd.org (970) 731 -2691 <br />P.O.
