Jenn, here is some info I have regarding these questions, Ill let you forward these onto Dan Adsit or Gerald.

1. Someone would need to check records at city hall.

2. Fish Screens are stainless steel Johnson T-screens rated at 4 mgd each.

3. I have attached photo’s of the screen during construction and as of today.

4. I would not have documentation of fish screen approval at the WTP maybe there are records at City Hall.

5. No points of diversion.

Good Morning, I am to a point in the preparation of the Beneficial Use Claims form that I need a few questions answered.

With the following questions answered I can finalize and get to the Water Department for review:

1. Date of completion for the construction of the entire system. As of right now the Department and all documents I have indicate the Permit to complete and finalize the Construction is dated 1995. When was the actual completion day of the current system?

2. (Question 9b.) Is there a fish screen in the system at the intake or point of Diversion from the Molalla?

3. I will need photos of the Screen if available, I understand it is presently under water?

4. (Question 9e.) Has the fish Screen been approved by ODFW, this may be waived as the system was active prior to February 1, 2011, but having this information in my records would help to bypass any questions.

5. Was there ever a diversion per this next question (question 10 on the Claim Form):

10. By-pass Devices

a. Are any points of diversion required to have a by-pass device to prevent fish from

entering the point of diversion?

From what I have seen via photos as I have not been to the site, the intake is directly in the River and there were no channels dug to eliminate fish from gaining access to the inflow? My initial answer was NO, but I wanted to get an answer from you.

11. Other conditions required by permit, permit amendment final order, extension final order,

or transfer final order:

a. Were there special well construction standards? YES NO
b. Was submittal of a ground water monitoring plan required? YES NO
c. Was the water user required to restore the riparian area if it was disturbed? YES NO
d. Was a fishway required? YES NO
e. Was submittal of a letter from an engineer required prior to storage of water? YES NO
f. Was submittal of a water management and conservation plan required? YES NO
g. Other conditions? YES NO

If “YES” to any of the above, identify the condition and describe the water user’s actions to comply with the condition(s):
