OLD BUSINESS –    
Managers’ Report
The Annual Meeting of the Membership of SBHWS was held Thursday, September 8, 6:30 pm at the Pringle Community Center; comments from the few members present were neutral or supportive.  Motion by Baird, 2nd by Seaboldt to send $150 to Pringle as appreciation for the use of their facilities.

The Battle Creek Fire District has signed the contract transferring the land for the Rushmore Ranch water salesman.

RDO has been conducting inspections and maintenance on generators.  For the Argyle and Junction units, this included replacement of the water coolant heaters and support batteries.  At the gravel pit, the dipstick was bent preventing checking the oil level; this was repaired.

The US Forest Service proposal for placing a camera atop the Argyle water tower for fire management is still in discussion; SBHWS is seeking a quid pro quo for the fees currently paid for the permit to cross FS lands.

The drop in the Madison aquifer observed at the Streeter well in June has abated from about 5 or 6 fi to about 3 ft; checks of other Madison source levels used by SBHWS are planned.
