I WHEREAS, the Carlsbad Municipal Water District has not

September 13, 1971; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Carlsbad Munici-

71610 of the Water Code.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE CARLSBAD
MUNICIPAL WATER DISTRICT DOES HEREBY FIND, DETERMINE, RESOLVE
AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS: --
1. This application is made pursuant to Article IV of
the Rules of the San Diego County Local Agency Formation Com-
mission and Section 54851 et. seq. of the Government Code.
2. The nature of this proposal is a request for author-
ization to exercise the power of "Reclamation", a sub-category
or Service of the function of "Sewer" as defined by Section
4.4 - Classification of Functions and Services, of Article IV
of the Rules of the Commission.
3. The reasons for this proposal are as follows:
Approximately 30 percent of the retail
water distributed by the District is used
for agricultural irrigation purposes; the
District realizes that within the next decade
there will be a significantly diminished
supply of water for agricultural purposes and
that the cost for all water will increase.
It is therefore necessary to develop
alternate sources of water to sustain the
agricultural enterprises currently operating
within the District; in order to meet the
anticipated agricultural demands, the Dis-
trict intends to acquire, store and distri-
bute non-potable water reclaimed, recaptured,
and salvaged from storm and wastewaters.
