SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The City of McCall Public Works Department would like to apply for a Source Water Protection Grant via the Idaho Department of Environmental Quality in an amount not to exceed $24,000
to support purchase of environmental spill response kits for both the Legacy Park and Davis Beach water intake facilities ($3,886), and security cameras ($12,019), hard containment
booms ($4,592), and monitoring ($1,296) and control equipment ($3,488) for the water intake station at Davis Beach. In the event pollution spillage in the lake, the spill kits and containment
booms will help protect the contaminants from reaching the water source intakes. The video cameras will help deter and document the water intake facility from human interference. The
sensing equipment will allow for quicker internet accessible diagnosis and response to water contaminants at the Davis Beach intake facility. The total cost of the project is approximately
$25,281. The balance of funding ($1,281) will be provided as grant match from the FY24 Water Dept. budget.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve submittal of an Idaho DEQ Source Water Protection grant application and authorize the Mayor to sign all necessary documents.
