The annual average attendance is 1,500 5th grade students, plus teachers, during the day-long event. <br /> <br />The adults and other children in the community are targeted during an evening session with an <br /> <br />abbreviated festival. <br /> <br />The District has available for teachers and others a water education library including videos, <br />teacher guides and student workbooks, at no cost. These include: The StolV of Drinking Water (Teacher <br />Guide and student woIkbook.) The videos which are available at the District office are: "The Wonders of <br />Water", "Safeguarding the Environment", "Xeriscape - Landscaping to Save Water, Time and Money", <br />"Big Fears, Little Risk", "Professor Water: Fantastic Facts About H20", "Water, Gift of Life", "What Do <br />You Know About H20?", and "Down the Drain." These materials may be checked out at any time with a <br />telephone call to 242-7491 for reservations. <br /> <br />Metering <br />The District has required metering of all services since water was delivered to our first customer <br />in 1963. The intent of this requirement is threefold. <br /> <br />1. Customers will be charged ouly for the amount of water used. <br />2. The District is able to compare finished water production to metered water sales which allows <br />us to determine the amount of finished water unaccounted for. Steps may then be taken to <br />reduce this loss by enhancing our leak detection program. <br />3.

This was <br />done to discourage the use of domestic water for irrigation landscapes. The District's current rate <br />stroclure is included in Exhibit B. The District reserves the right to adjust the rate strocture at any time. <br /> <br />12 <br />
