General Manager Joseph Zoba reported on the following items: STAFF REPORT
• The District staff participated in a meeting with the other
participants in the Beaumont Maximum Benefit Program at
the Regional Water Quality Control Board on Monday,
December 18, 2017. The purpose of the meeting was to
discuss a request from Beaumont Cherry Valley Water District
to obtain recycled water from the City of Beaumont prior to
the completion of desalination facilities by the City of
Beaumont at the Beaumont Wastewater Treatment Plant.

Earlier this month the City of Beaumont requested the
Yucaipa Valley Water District to consider a lease agreement
for a portion of the Yucaipa Valley Regional Brineline. This
lease would allow the City of Beaumont to defer the
construction of their brineline. The District staff stated that the
existing Yucaipa Valley Regional Brineline capacity is not
available due to the concentrate disposal needs associated
with the Yucaipa Valley Regional Water Supply Renewal
Project which includes the Salinity and Groundwater
Enhancement (SAGE) Project, and the Salinity Concentrate
Reduction and Minimization (SCRAM) Project.

During the staff report, the Board generally concurred that the
District’s brineline would not be available for use by the City
of Beaumont.
