He stated proposals for III, IV and V would be presented at the Board Meeting on January 15,1970, along with estimated cost. He stated the CCCWD Board Members would be in attendance at the meeting for a joint discussion of the proposals. Mr. Horstkotte suggested a meeting on January 22, 1970, to take action on the proposals after the Members of the District Board have had a chance to review the program to be presented. Dr. Porter, of Bechtel Corporation, presented charts indicating a two- year analytical program for the study of Phases III through V which included sampling and analyses, pilot and implementation studies. Dr. Porter stated they have had preliminary discussions with industry relative to their cooperation as to their requirements as to water quality and quantity requirements. Dr. Porter presented a chart indicating equipment list and removal processes, which he explained. Mr. Horstkotte stated that it was only a matter of time until the District will be required to employ some form of advanced treatment. Dr. Porter stated they needed a time schedule from the Districts for getting into a reclaimed water process.
