DECLARING OPPOSTTIO'N TO THE C~REATTON OF TOLAY LAKE
FOR STORAGE OF WAST.EWATER
WHEREAS, an amendment to the omnibus water bill has been
introduced by Congressman Doug Bosco to inelude funding of the Sonoma
County Wastewater Reclamation Project~ to ass'ist the City of Santa Rosa in
disposing of their treated wastewater; and
WHEREAS, the Santa Rosa area drains into the Russian River basin
while the Petaluma area drains into the Bay waters and is under the
control of a separate Regional Water Quality Control Board; and
WHEREAS, there exists strong local oppcjsition to any plan to create
and complete a facility .commonly known as "The Tolay Lake Plan" which
would introduce wastewater from other than local origin;
THEREFORE, let it be known that the City of Petaluma, although
supportive of efforts to fund improvements in the Santa Rosa area, strongly
opposes the creation of the Tolay Lake Project and recommends further that
a11 alternative wastewater treatment plans be studied and a solution more
acceptable to the people of Petaluma be implemented after receiving input
from the .local community .on this proposal. In addition, the City of Petaluma
feels the appropriate lead agency for such a project is the County of
Sonoma.
