B. Status Report on Water Level Monitoring throughout the Beaumont
Basin through May 27, 2019
Recommendation: None.
Engineer Blandon reviewed the report and updated the Committee on
YVWD Well 34 where the sounding device had been lost. New equipment
has been installed. He noted that data from Oak Valley Well 5 has been
inconsistent and is being investigated.
Blandon pointed out increased water levels at BCVWD Wells 2 and 25.
Mr. Jaggers explained that BCVWD has made some operational changes
in pumping from the area of the mound, not in the west side of the
basin.
Two new monitoring wells have been added in the western portion of
the basin, Blandon reported.
Chair Vela updated the Committee on Well 15. The anticipated street
project that would have affected the well has been shelved.

2019
Recommendation: None.
Engineer Blandon explained the purpose of the report and Mr. Jaggers
noted a correction on the table.

from capturing local stormwater in the basin
B. Development of a methodology and policy to account for groundwater
storage losses in the basin resulting from the spreading of additional
