The proposal was made by the Orange County Nurses Assn., representing about 75 per cent of the nursing staff in the three local hospitals and these medical facilities: Santa Ana Doctors, Westminster, Santa Ana Community, South Coast Community, Hoag Presbyterian Memorial. The nurses relinquished the right to strike "or to use in any measures inconsistent with (their) responsibility to the patients," but held that this move on their part made it mandatory that hospital administrators negotiate with them in good faith. The association, which is affiliated with the California State Nurses Assn., said that definite proposals would be made soon in each of the hospitals on basis that all should accept and have identical salary schedules and working conditions. The organization said it would decline to negotiate individually with the hospitals for "strictly local contracts."

Approve Route of $27.5 Million Major MWD Water Line In County Big steps toward construction of another major Metropolitan Water District water line into Orange County has been made here. The Orange County Water District has given tentative approval to the route of a 24-mile, $27.5 million pipeline from Carbon Canyon to the Big Canyon Reservoir in Newport Beach. Anaheim's share of the project is $500,000. J. Lester Boyle, consulting engineer for the OCWD, said his final report and recommendation on the project will be ready by July 6. The proposal is for a 300-cubic-foot line to swing off the lower feeder in Carbon Canyon, carrying east of Fullerton, Anaheim and Santa Ana to a junction near the intersection of Culver Rd. and an extension of Delhi Rd. The proposal was made by MWD general manager Robert Delmer. According to Boyle, both Anaheim and the Irvine Co. are in favor of the proposal. Other costs include MWD, $7,-500,000; Santa Ana, $1,400,000, and the Irvine Co., $3,100,000. Boyle cited these conclusions: 1. Additional MWD water facilities are urgently needed and should be constructed as soon as reasonably possible. 2. That a detailed program of procedures should be developed by OCMWD to expedite construction of the facilities and to assist involved agencies in final determinations. 3. If the facilities are to be constructed to serve areas within OC-MWD it is apparent necessary funds, supplementing those of MWD, must be provided by local sources.
