The Water Board, as you know, has for years retained Floya G. Hyde;
~ known as Simon and Company, as our Federal Affairs Consultant.
The Water Department continued the use of his services even after
the City and the Redevelopment Agency discontinued the services.

received.
It is interesting to note their effectiveness. The Department
thought it would be great if the Corps of Engineers, in their
redesign of Prado Dam, would include an open space for a future
pipeline. In the original dam design, they provided for a future
pipeline which made the brine line to the ocean a reality. When
the Department first suggested this, we were informed that the
design work was too near completion to accommodate such a change.
I contacted Floyd Hyde and explained the proposal to him. Floyd and
Mary Jane Kemp said they would try to help me. Twenty-five (25) days
later I received a letter stating that the Corps would include an
open space for a future pipeline to the new Prado Dam design. Just

Dear Bernie:
Following up on my conversation
afternoon. Floyd Hyde and I are pleased
approaches for continUing our San
representation efforts.
with you yesterday
to outline suggested
Bernardino Washington
Alternative A: Extension of Board of Water Commissioners Contract
Under this plan. we would be most agreeable to a simple one
year extension of our eXisting contract with the Board. with all
terms and conditions to remain the same.
It has been a pleasure to .work for the Board and we look
forward to development of a program of priority projects for us
to pursue and considerable accomplishments in the coming year.
Alternative B: Combined General Government and Board Contract
With this arrangement. we would continue our work for the
Board but also undertake additional assignments for the City
based a program to be determined by the Mayor and senior City
staff. as we suggested in our letter to the Mayor on July 6.
Our current contract with the Board is for $10.000 per year,
plus reimbursement for expenses. Under a Joint contract between
the City and the Board, we would propose a one year total of
$20.000, billed at a monthly rate of $I .666.66. plus
reimbursement for expenses.
We believe this is a reasonable figure which would enable us
to pursue a number of important activities for the City and Board
as well as provide ongoing Washington liaison and information
services. with the specific division of this total amount to be
determined between the Board and general government.
I want to emphaSize that our principal goal is to continue
to provide services to the City of San Bernardino. Towards that
end, we remain quite flexible regarding costs and will certainly
find any arrangement. whether it is with the City alone or the
City and Board combined, most satisfactory.

Washington-related activities.
I look forward to talking with you and hopefully seeing you
soon.
