<br />Fed. Ex. we will be faxing them to Mr. Woo at the IRS and will receive back from them <br />our permanent non-profit number. <br />With this obstacle behind us we can proceed with sending out grant requests to various <br />agencies and companies that may be able to lend support to our Assoc. Ms. Calder has <br />been drafting the grant requests and should have them ready in the very near future. We <br />will be happy to send you a copy so that you Can see what it is we are doing. We Can also <br />provide you with a copy of our IRS non-profit status within the next week or so along <br />with a copy of the language changes to our Articles of Incorporation. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />Charles has continued to work on the ROW issues. Mr. John Washington of the SUIT <br />has informed us that the ROW through their land has been approved and the necessary <br />paperwork has been turned over to the BIA. Charles talked with Dee Olguin at the BIA <br />yesterday and she assured us she would get the paperwork ready and submit it to their <br />offices in Albuquerque to be filed there. As soon as we receive them back we will have <br />them recorded also here with La Plata County and forward onto you a copy. We <br />appreciate the call that you made regarding this matter. It seemed to get things moving <br />through the SUIT council. Weare enclosing with this letter the ROW agreements that <br />have been recorded between PMRCA and Dorothy Gustafson. One is in regard to and <br />electrical ROW for the diversion and the other is pipeline. PMRCA has completed it's <br />payments and the work that was to be done for these ROWs. We are also enclosing our <br />memberships statement that would allow us to cross members land and a list of who has <br />signed them. <br /> <br />e <br /> <br />The board discussed the situation with RML As to whether or not PMRCA would finish <br />construction with RMI as the contractor it was agreed that unless the billing disputes are <br />satisfactorily resolved that PMRCA can not continue with RMI. We are currently <br />working to find a resolution with RMI. Ms. Calder, as our financial director is <br />overseeing that effort. She did send a letter to RMI on Oct. 5,1998 outlining in detail the <br />problems in billing received from them. Brad Simmons, ofRMI, sent a letter to Charles <br />and I and that was reviewed at last nights board meeting and Ms. Calder will be sending <br />out more correspondence to RMI. Until we get the issues resolved with RMI we can not <br />continue with construction. We will continue to pursue a resolution of the billing <br />disputes. <br /> <br />The board also discussed our financial situation. We wish again to assure CWCB that <br />PMRCA has agreed to repay the loan funds under the term of the contract. Weare <br />currently trying to raise more capitol and have received $4000 additional funds from <br />members and have three landowners who have shown a great interest in joining the <br />Association and an additional member who will try to pay their tap soon. Also with the <br />non-profit status we will be applying for grants and feel strongly that we will be able to <br />receive support through the grants. We are discussing other fundraising options. We feel <br />strongly that this is still a very feasible and viable project. We have in place a board that <br />is committed to seeing this project through and bringing water to all of it's members. We <br />remain appreciative of the support and help that CWCB has given PMRCA and continues <br />to give. Weare sure that this project will succeed. <br /> <br />e <br />
