Minutes of Regular Meeting of Southern Black Hills Water System Board
Crazy Horse Monument
Thursday, July 27, 2023


The Regular Meeting of the Board of Directors of the Southern Black Hills Water System was held at the Crazy Horse Monument on Thursday, July 27, 2023.
Chairman Wick called the meeting to order at approximately 1:00 p.m.

ROLL CALL –     The following Board Members were present:   Wick, Baird,  Beard, Kraus, Krump, Nase, Seaboldt, and Zolnowsky;  Smith was absent. Others in attendance were Don Peterson and Talbot Wieczorek.

AGENDA –   Motion by Seaboldt, 2nd by Beard to approve the agenda.  Motion passed unanimously.

MINUTES -   Motion by Beard, 2nd by Seaboldt to approve the minutes of the June 22 meeting. Motion passed unanimously.

TREASURER’S REPORT –  Don Peterson presented the treasurer’s reports for June 2023.  The report was reviewed by the board members.   Motion by Kraus, 2nd by Baird to approve the treasurer’s report and transfer $15,000 from the regular checking account into the RD account.  Motion passed unanimously.   The check sequence ending June 30 was check #4256 and beginning July 1 was check #4257.

OLD BUSINESS –
The US Forest Service provided an updated version of the permit for use of the Casey well; management recommended acceptance of the permit, noting the cooperative effort of the USFS team in formulating the update.  Motion by Baird, 2nd by Seaboldt to have Don Peterson sign the updated permit.  This permit allows SBHWS to use the Casey well as the primary water source up to 300 gallons per minute, which will happen at the completion of some tasks that have been left pending while the permit update was ongoing.

Managers’ Report
The DANR environmental evaluation of no significant impact for the Paramount Point / Spring Creek Acres project was published in the Custer Chronicle July 19 edition.

Implementation of the customer notification system via IRIS has commenced.  Information and a request for contact information for customers was mailed with July statements.

Dar Coy attended a training session on the Lead Service Line Inventory; location information from the customer notification forms will assist the preparation of SBHWS’s LSLI report.

Maguire Iron has provided video from the inspection of the storage tank at the office site.  The orientation of the pipes for overflow and output suction, together with safety margins, has limited the useful storage to 18 inches in a 10 foot tank.  Management plans to reorient those pipes with the expectation that the result will be 6 feet or more of useful storage and allow refills to be deferred to off-peak energy-usage hours.


NEW BUSINESS -
A budget committee was appointed, with the plan to meet and create a proposed budget before the August meeting.

A tentative date and location was selected for the 2023 members meeting:  October 5 at the Pringle Community Center.

Motion by Seaboldt, 2nd by Beard to move into Executive Session at 2:05 pm; motion passed unanimously.

Motion by Beard, 2nd by Kraus to move out of Executive Session at 3:33; motion passed unanimously. There were no motions arising from executive session.
