As our position (and our water needs) creased, some method had to devised that would give us water, because without it farmers couldn't irrigate, and dustry wouldn't locate here. The actual effect of this creased use of water was ply that a person drilling a had to drill deeper each year get water.

Studies showed that melting snows in the mountain drained into a vast underground basin and that the water per lating through this was picked by the wells.

WHETMORE Assemblyman, 70th District our water troubles started and 1925, at which time the count of water given us each by Mother Nature began to water users. Most of us, at first thought, might be inclined to say that if we were to drill a well in our back yard and get water from it, this water was ours and it is to the great credit of the administration of this operation that moneys received from these sales has exceeded cost of the spreading operation. A laurel here The Orange County Water Story By JAMES E. WHETMORE Assemblyman, 70th District Our water troubles started and 1925, at which time the count of water given us each by Mother Nature began to less than the amount that our residents used up. As our population (and our water needs) increased, some method had to be used that would give us more water, because without it ourers couldn’t irrigate, and in many wouldn’t locate here. The actual effect of this increased use of water was simi- that a person drilling a well to drill deeper each year to water. Salt Water When the drilling gets below level, salt instead of fresh is apt to be produced and water, of course, is not used. Studies showed that the algae snows in the mountains led into a vast underground and that the water percolates through this was picked up in the wells. While water was in each year to the under- and “reservoir,” whenever it was pumped out than was, the “level” of the water in underground reservoir naturally went down. MWD Water In 1941 a committee was formed to cure out some way to put water into this reservoir. It is composed of Orange Coun-idents of long standing and idea they came up with is interesting. They decided to water from the metropolitan district (which was being fed from the Colorado River Arizona), spread it on the hill in the upper end of the Ana river near Yorba and let it sink into the soil, thus filling the under- reservoir and raising the "at which water would be in all of Orange Countie's Proof of the soundness of idea is evidenced by the fact today the Orange County District operates the larg- water spreading" operation world, and that our wells water users. Most of us, at first thought, might be inclined to say that if we were to drill a well in our back yard and get water from it, this water was ours and that nobody should either take it away from us, or make us pay a tax on it. Well, as a matter of fact some property owners took this attitude and the matter went clear up to the Supreme Court of California before it was determined that they had to pay. Pump Tax The means by which the cost of buying the Arizona water was to be distributed became known as a "pump tax". Very simply, every time anyone pumps water from a well in Orange County they are required to pay a small tax on it. Meters are placed on all pumps which are read just as is the water meter in your home. At present, farmers pay $8.00 per "acrefoot" and city dwellers pay $11.00. Now and "acre foot" is a very large amount of water, so you an see that the "pumptax" is quite reasonable. Incidentally, the reason the farmer pays less is because when he uses the water for irrigation he spreads it on the ground and most of it goes back to this underground "reservoir" anyway, while the city dwellers' water ends up in the ocean via the various sewer systems. Spreading A tour of the "Water spreading" facilities is most interesting. For many miles in the upper part of the Santa Ana river bed this water can be seen, sinking into the ground continuously, as more is pumped in. Piles of earth are placed in the stream bed so that the water will not run down to the ocean, and a crew of men watches this operation carefully from day to day, making changes in the bed as necessary. Interestingly, a great deal of sand has been excavated by a number of private companies and sold to them by the water district. So far, it is to the great credit of the administration of this operation that moneys received from these sales has exceeded cost of the spreading operation. A laurel here should go to Howard Crook, who probably knows more about the Orange County water situation than any man alive. In Good Shape As to the future, there is always work to be done, legislation that hurts us must be defeated, tax collections must be effected, and of course, new residents mean greater future water needs. From what I've seen so far however, under our present leadership, in light of present knowledge, and since within a few years we will have additional water coming to us from Northern California, I would say that we in Orange County are in excellent shape as far as water is concerned. The early residents of our County built their water theories on very solid reasoning and those of us who came later to benefit, have much to thank them for. Square Dancing Following its first open square dance at Anaheim's La Palma Recreation Building, the Anaheim Host Lions Club made its first deposit with the city to help pay for the city's newest recreation facility. The air-conditioned building is being used three nights each week for square dancing under the joint auspices of the Park and Recreation Department and the Lions Club.
