Energy Trust funding uncertain; board discusses moving ahead with Klamath Pump using $21,000 water fund
Summary
Board member Matt Nelson told the board a grant from Energy Trust is unlikely; the board discussed well performance and contingency plans and noted $21,000 in the water fund intended to cover the first phase of repairs with Klamath Pump.
Board member Matt Nelson raised concerns about grant support for new wells, saying "there is a good possibility that we won’t get the Trust Funds." The board reviewed how the wells have operated in the past and how they are operating now and discussed how that could affect eligibility for Energy Trust funds.
Treasurer Judy Mangrum told the board that $21,000 is available in the water fund to pay for the first phase of repairs if external funds are not granted, and members discussed going forward with an estimate from Klamath Pump. The minutes record the board discussing plans to "go forward with Klamath Pump and get things started" to repair the wells, though no formal vote or contract award was recorded in the minutes.
