The

239-102-003, which will be subsequently renamed and divided into 14 lots within
the boundary of the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District (MPWMD). The boundary of the service area and location
of the 14 homesites is shown in Attachment 1.
2. The Permittee is authorized by MPWMD under this Permit to provide potable water for domestic use, including residential use and associated landscaping, in compliance with Permit #270-2521 issued by the Monterey County Health Department in the service area identified in Condition #1.
3. Pursuant to MPWMD Board approval of the Application for Variance to Rule 22 on November 21, 2005, there is no system capacity (production) limit on the quantity of water imported from water sources and wells outside the MPWMD boundary via the GLWDS to serve specified residential lots within the MPWMD boundary. The expansion capacity (connection) limit for the GLWDS is hereby set at 14 connections for the homesites identified in Condition #1. No municipal unit (jurisdiction) allocation is associated with this Permit.
4.
No
water sources or wells within the District are associated with water delivered
by the GLWDS (i.e., Goodrich Water Distribution Pipeline). All water delivered by the GLWDS emanate
from sources and facilities outside of the District.
5. The
following wells are located within the GLWDS service area and within the MPWMD
boundary, but are not part of the GLWDS:
Well #T-11A and Well #T-17. These
wells are considered to be pre-existing in accordance with MPWMD Rule 20; their
use is limited to specific pre-existing structures and purposes, and they are
independent of the GLWDS. Water
produced from these wells is not regulated by this Permit. These wells are included in this permit
solely for record keeping purposes and identification of baseline
conditions.
