RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Monterey County Water Resources Agency Board of Directors:
Receive the Monterey County Water Resources Agency FY 2018-19 Third Quarter Financial Status Report through March 31, 2019.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
Year to date revenues for most of the Agency funds are at 57.4% of budget. The Monterey County Water Resources Agency (Agency) received revenues from Special Assessments and Ad Valorem taxes in December as scheduled. Hydro-electric revenue is at 100% of budget from receiving the month of September’s revenue. Unfortunately, the hydro plant needed to be shut down in mid-September due to low reservoir levels, therefore, Agency received no revenue for the month of October 2018 to January 2019. The Agency expenditures are at 65.4% of budget as it continues the repair of Nacimiento and San Antonio Dams due to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and the California Department of Water Resources - Division of Safety of Dams (DSOD) compliance requirement and spillway repair work plan preparation for both reservoirs. Interlake Tunnel Project has over $3.2M combined encumbered and expended in consultant fees. The Agency will continue to monitor expenditures as we approach the summer months.
On a consolidated basis, the Agency financial performance up to 9th period of the accounting month is projected as follows:
