Esmeralda County adopts Silver Peak Water Protection Plan
Summary
The board unanimously adopted the Silver Peak Water Protection Plan prepared by the National Rural Water Association for Silver Peak Utilities, accepting a staff recommendation to mirror the prior Goldfield utility plan adoption.
The Esmeralda County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously Jan. 20 to adopt the Silver Peak Water Protection Plan, prepared by Chris Berkly of the National Rural Water Association, at the request of Esmeralda County Utility.
County Manager Joe Dunn introduced the measure, saying it mirrors the approach previously used for Goldfield Utility. "This the same what we did for Goldfield Utility and now its just for Silver Peak Utilities is all," the minutes record. Commissioner Rachel Holt moved to adopt the plan and Commissioner Mary Jane Zakas seconded; the motion carried with all commissioners in favor.
The plan was placed in the meeting backup and is recorded with the minutes. The action gives the county and Silver Peak Utilities a formal water protection framework to guide operations and regulatory compliance.
