Breakthrough seen in Southland water battle There may be a breakthrough in the half-century old battle between the City of Los Angeles and Inyo County over control and use of water resources in Owens. Valley, concludes Assemblyman Gene Chappie who took part in recent negotiations between the the ~eity and county, initiated and mediated by the California Water Resources Association. “T do not wish to raise false hopes,”’ Chappie said, ‘“‘but both Inyo and Mono officials tell me Los Angeles has conceded for the first time to discuss limiting its absolute control over the management of the water in Owens Valley.” Besides Chappie, representatives of Mono and Inyo counties, the CWRA and the city’s Department of Water and Power attended the meeting. Top spokesman for the department present was Chief Operating Engineer, Robert Phillips. “Inyo County,’’ says Chappie, “wants some say’so over the future. management and allocation of water to be used in the valley to protect the valley’s environment. The city has absolute control now and stepped-up underground pumping has Inyo people gravely concerned.” According to Chappie, the county and L.A. representatives will meet again within 30 days and discuss three points: 1. The legality of L.A.’s sharing of management control of the Owens Valley water resources; _ 2. Preparation of a coordinated water management plan; and 3. The role of the plan and a time schedule, “The apparent breakthrough in the negotiations may be caused,”’ Chappie said, “by my AB 5, which would mandate an adjudication of the Owens Valley and Mono Basin water rights.”’ Also, Inyo County has sued the city.-to force it to. file environmental impact statements. “PU BLIC PULSE Editor: The Nugget; Dear Sir: We would like to thank publicly two fine citizens of Grass Valley. Last Sunday, June 24th, we were two miles south of Penn Valley, when a hose broke on our car and we were forced to pull to the side of the road..steaming. It must have been 100 degrees and at least 20 cars passed us. Finally a young couple stopped to offer us aid. They cheerfully and smilingly went for water for . our over-heated car. They then followed us back to Penn Valley to make sure we would find help
and did not leave us until the gas station proprietor was located and arrived to repair our car. The names of these young Samaritans are Valerie Juvenall and Jack Forrest. We wish them well and we are extremely grateful for their genuine concern. Mr. and Mrs. John D. Johnston 1077 Staple Drive, Yuba City, California.
