Minutes

The work session was called to order at 9:30 AM. Roll Call had Luis Silva, Jesus Guerrero, Andew Foster and Charles Behney present. Stephen Dey was excused. Site Manager Chris Willhoite was present. There was no one from the public.

Mr. Francisco Morales of the North American Development Bank (NADB) called and was enroute to the NSD Wastewater Treatment Plant.

The board met at the NSD WWTP with Mr. Morales. The site was in working order and compliant. The board walked and inspected the four lagoons, including the Bisbee effluent that is batch flowing in Green Bush (Greenbush) Draw.

Mr. Morales expressed interest in the NSD Resolution of 5/19/23 that agreed to regional cooperation for the use of NSD property for aquifer protection including emergency connections to Naco, Sonora, remediating Green Bush Draw effluent, and providing resources for abating the sulfate plume that has contaminated Naco wells. Mr. Morales suggested NSD write an Executive Summary for the Naco Community Wetlands Mitigation Plan that will inform and update the stakeholders.

NSD Chair Charles Behney stated that a Preliminary Engineering Review (PER) was progressing with Rural Community Assistance Corporation (RCAC) advisors and the USDA for a grant to start the PER. Mr. Morales said that he would be returning to the area approximately every six weeks.

The board then returned to the office where Mr. Morales met Ms. Patience and Nikki Ross. The meeting was adjourned at 10:30AM. No actions were taken by the board, as this was a work session.
