funding.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
1. The Water Committee has reviewed the applications for the vacancies on
the Fish & Wildlife Study Committee and has recommended that Thomas Studley
and Andrew Surges be appointed to the vacant positions for terms ending
December 31, 1987. Twenty-two applications were received for the two
vacancies and the Fish & Wildlife Study Committee aided in the screening of
applications. Both nominees appear to have a strong interest in fish and
wildlife matters and appear be an asset to the Fish & Wildlife Study
Committee.

FISH & WILDLIFE STUDY COMMITTEE APPOINTMENT AND -2- SEPTEMBER 22, 1986
WATER AGENCY LEGAL SERVICES
2. The upcoming Water Hearings before the State Water Resources Control
Board will result in the development of a Water Quality Control Plan and a
Water Rights Decision for the Bay/Delta estuary. Many parties with
concerns and interests similar to Contra Costa County are expected to
participate in the Hearings. In order to coordinate and share technical
and legal resources, it is important to communicate with these groups.
Since the Hearings are conducted in a quasi-judicial manner and there are
many legal issues involved, it is appropriate for the Water Agency Attorney
to participate in these discussions to represent Contra Costa County.
