Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the extension application for permit S-29018 in the name of the City of Yachats. Comments 1. To the extent the extension application is suggesting on p. 13 that water under this permit could be sold to or otherwise used to supply other municipalities, that is inconsistent with the permit. This permit was issued for the purpose of providing redundant supply to the City of Yachat’s to make up for any deficiency in the available supply from Reedy Creek (permit S-17333). Selling or otherwise wheeling the water to other cities or uses is not consistent with the permit and thus not allowed. This should be clearly stated in any extension order. 2. The application does not support an extension for the full permitted amount because that amount exceeds projected demand for the permit. 3. The extension is subject to a fish persistence review and conditioning pursuant to ORS 537.230(3)(d). Please let me know if there any questions. Thank you for considering these comments.
