Lack of pool lifeguards
eliminates early season
n Opening day set back to May 11
By Amanda Rhodes
Tribune Staff Writer
A lack of lifeguards is the reason for no early opening at the
Calistoga Community Pool but
swim enthusiasts can prepare to be
the first to jump in in early May.
Shannon Clegg, Calistoga
Recreation Services Manager, informed city council Tuesday evening that the pool is set to open
May 11 with a modified spring
schedule and will open with a full
summer schedule June 8.
Clegg, who has been working
a little more than a month as the
new recreation manager, said that
the first lifeguard training began
Monday with a total of five participants and another 10 will begin
training Friday.
During the meeting, councilmember Jim Barnes said he has
received complaints from citizens
regarding the lack of an early
opening at the pool this year.
Clegg said that due to last minute cancellations and being short
staffed, an earlier opening was just
not possible. Going forward, her
objective is to have lifeguard training year-round, not just before the
season starts.
“Our objective is to rampup and have 30 lifeguards at any
one time,” City Manager Richard
Spitler said. He added that Calistoga, along with numerous surrounding cities, has a chronic problem
lacking lifeguards on staff.
Besides raising the hourly rate,
a volunteer junior lifeguard program will be available to 13-14
year-olds who want to learn more
about pool safety and eventually
become city lifeguards.
The recreation department is
currently looking for more interested lifeguards to participate in
future trainings. Participants must
be at least 15 years old. Starting
wage begins at $12 per hour.

New water restrictions
imposed by Gov. Brown

ater rebates are working but more
restrictions will be imposed as Calistoga remains in a Stage II Water
Emergency.
City council voted Tuesday to expand its
water conservation requirements to include the
recent state mandates after Gov. Jerry Brown issued an executive order April 1 ordering cities
and towns across California to cut water by 25
percent this year over 2013.
“We were well ahead of this last year by
adopting a Stage II Water Emergency,” Mayor
Chris Canning said. “Our conservation efforts
have far exceeded the rest of the state of California and at periods of time have surpassed what
the governor has requested of 20 percent.”
In response to Gov. Brown’s January 2014
State of Emergency in California, city council
adopted an ordinance last year declaring a Stage
II Water Emergency for Calistoga was in place.
Mandatory water conservation measures were
adopted in order to achieve a desired water conservation goal of 20 percent.
Under the recent declaration, the governor
upped Calistoga’s conserving efforts by another
five percent.
According to Public Works Director Mike
Kirn, most of the new mandates included in the
state legislatures emergency order have already
been incorporated into Calistoga’s Stage II Best
Management Practices.
New restrictions include operating a fountain
or decorative water feature unless the water is

For the first time the King of

Storm sends oak tree to the ground
Wind and saturated soil from the recent rain caused a large tree to fall
and completely block the bike path connecting Cedar Street to Rancho
de Calistoga on Monday. Public works director Mike Kirn said during
Tuesday night’s city council meeting that removal would begin as soon
as possible and should take 3-4 days to complete. Kirn was not sure how
much the removal of the tree would cost but said the city has a $5,000
deductible.

Calistoga has been working on
ways to reduce water use throughout the area and has seen significant change since creating the Water Conservation Program in June
2014.
According to Anais Hall, program manager for the conservation team, Calistoga achieved a
community-wide water use reduction of 14 percent in 2014. In Dec.
alone, residents achieved a 24
percent reduction over the same
month in 2013.

and other food service establishments, something that has already
been in place in Calistoga.

Hall said that 31 “Cash for

Three rebates remain for this fiscal year but more will be added to
the next. There have also been 42
rebates, either in progress or completed, for High Efficiency Toilets,

Council directed the water conservation staff Tuesday to prepare
a program to present at a future
council meeting on how to bring
commercial and industrial users
that have exceeded their baseline
allocation into compliance by the
end of the year through conservation efforts.
The Resource Management
System (RMS) is the instrument
by which the city manages, controls and regulates the water and
wastewater resources. The RMS
is intended to act as an inventory
control mechanism that is accomplished by creating baselines for
each commercial and industrial
user.
Currently, the city has approximately 223 commercial and industrial users subject to baselines.
According to the council, about 20
businesses are currently over their
baseline, some a little and some a
lot.
Under the governor’s new orders, cities have more authority
and punitive options to enforce incorrect behavior that has not been
modified.
A water violation occurs if a
best management practice is ignored and documented by city
staff. The first violation results
in a written warning. Subsequent
violations results in a tiered surcharge multiplier.

and started his own cooperage. He
had a wonderful talent and passion for creating exceptional wine

He was arguably one of the best

traveled to the Czech Republic to
share his trade at a cooperage there.
Ron was also a talented poet, and
could often be found writing and

traveling the continent while staying in youth hostels. Ron was a
gardener and was proud to volunteer his time and ability to grow
tobacco for the Native American

1,400 colored eggs found in minutes
by 200+ eager Easter Egg hunters

“I’d want to be a bald eagle
and fly around the valley.
You know, just enjoy the
open sky.”
Nearly 200 eager children and
their families gathered beneath
blue skies and a bright sun at the
Logvy Field Saturday morning
for the Calistoga Lion’s Club 35th
or 40th annual Easter Egg Hunt.
“There is nobody alive who
remembers when we started,”
laughed Lion’s Club Secretary
Bill Thomas.
The crowd began to gather at
9:45 a.m. as the children impatiently awaited their cue to begin
their search for the colorful eggs
at 10 a.m..
Former president of the Lion’s
Club Matt Freese began the ten
second countdown to commence
the hunt, the kids could no longer
contain their excitement and were
on the field three seconds into the
countdown.
Less than five minutes later
1,400 eggs were claimed.
“We spend one night boiling the eggs, another day dyeing
them, and an hour hiding them
and it’s all over in five minutes,”
Thomas said, “but it’s worth it.”
The Lion’s Club members,
however, get help from their kids
and friends when they gather to
dye the hundreds of eggs before
the event.

More than 200 children showed up for the annual egg contest last
weekend at Logvy Park.
Every year the egg hunt is divided into sections for the children in
preschool through the fourth grade,
because Lion’s Club members have
observed that usually once they hit
the fifth grade they no longer want
to take part in the egg hunt.
“This year I think we saw
some tourist’s kids participate,
which was nice,” Freese said.
“It’s open to anyone.”
Among the hard boiled eggs
were also numbered plastic eggs,
which if found could be used to
claim one of many prizes, including stuffed rabbits, marbles and
bouncy balls, donated by owner
of Ace Hardware and Lion’s Club
member Mark Peterson.
“We always do it the day
before so we don’t interfere with
family events on Sunday, and we
get a good turnout,” Freese said.
The Lion Club’s next event is
the Halloween parade in downtown Calistoga.

How would you answer this question?
Karen Mann’s eldest son
Cassidy Crowley was in
Monterey with his Mom
and brother Taft enjoying
the sights and each other.
They are both Calistoga
young men.
Cassidy saw a man
caught in the riptide in
Monterey Bay and he
jumped in and risked his
Cassidy
own life and saved the man. I
believe that Cassidy was at one time the lifeguard
at Calistoga Hot Springs. And remember when he
had his country western band? And every event in
the valley wanted his group to play?
Congratulations Cassidy, for a rescue that was
heroic and shows your strong character.

Maybe you all can help with this minor point
that I have happily turned into trivia that drives
people nuts.
When someone asks where you were born, do
you answer with the name of the hospital or the
name of the town where your family lived?
When I asked Noah where he was born he
answered St. Helena. No, I said, you were born in
Calistoga. Okay, the actual birth was in a hospital,
but he was there for seven hours before we drove
him home to Calistoga.
“Why would you say St. Helena? You didn’t
even spend the night there!” I responded. “You’re a
Calistogan through and through.” It’s a point that
has frequently driven me crazy. When I get asked
where I was born, I respond “Beloit, Kansas.”
Never spent anytime there, it’s just where the closest hospital happened to be. And it burned down
years later. I am flummoxed with what to say when
people ask where I was born–Beloit, but never
lived there.
What do you say? Why? Whoa, even worse:
what if you were born on a boat in the middle of
nowhere? Do you use the name of the nearest city
with a pier where you disembark?
See, sometimes it’s the seemingly easy questions that are the hardest to answer. So email me
your answer to [email protected].

Letters
from our readers
Dear Editor,
“Play Ball! ”
It can signal the start of a baseball
game or a Little League season. The
phrase means something conveying a
purpose and a message.
Congratulations are in order for the
leadership of Calistoga Little League.
In a brief period they we able to reassemble the community at large and
gather a sponsorship commitment from
the community allowing all players to
participate for free.
The procession of banners along
the outfield fence at Tedeschi Field
demonstrates how Calistoga values the
great game of baseball but more so the
value of its youth.
Kudos to all the volunteers who
provide coaching, support and guidance to the players. To the umpires
who make the tough calls on the field
we say thank you as you have the
responsibility to say, “Play Ball”!

Hats off to everyone in
Last Gas presentation
Dear Editor,
Last week I came away from the
Calistoga Theatre Company’s latest
stage presentation, Last Gas written by
John Cariani, feeling I had seen a firstclass performance.
The topic was sensitive, and with
the superb acting, and the characters so
well defined and presented, the viewer
could feel the emotions, motives,
and impulses of the characters very
acutely. The play is a touching and
intimate snapshot of the collision of
rural culture, confusing family dynamics, and a nearly unsolvable dilemma
created, in part, by this collision.
Sharie Renault and her troupe have
given Napa Valley many great performances. In a community as small
as Calistoga, it is unusual to find this
calibre of stage production. As Calistogans we should feel proud to have
this theatre troupe and we should also
support it heartily.
Guidelines
Letters to the Tribune should
be sent to Editor, Calistoga
Tribune, P.O. Box 1176, Calistoga,
CA 94515, e-mailed to editor@
calistogatribune.com, submitted
to www.calistogatribune.com, or
faxed to 942-6508.
All letters must be signed and
must include a phone number
for verification or clarification.
(Phone numbers are not printed.)
Deadline is noon Tuesday prior
to the Friday of publication. Keep
letters short, 300 words or less,
and send only one a month.
Of note, Sharie and her cast also
have the additional responsibility to
take down and put up their staging
after each performance since the space
in which they perform is also used
by other artists. They do not have a
space dedicated to stage plays. This
is a challenging addition to a grueling
schedule when putting on multiple
performances.
I just want to say Thank You to the
Calistoga Theatre Company for providing live theatre to our community. I
look forward to attending more of their
productions in the future. Hats off
to Sharie and all the actors and stage
hands for volunteering their time,
labor, and talent for the enjoyment of
the people of Calistoga.
Thankful Butler

restrictions as those with city water,
but that is not a reason to waste water.
Sprinkling your lawn while it is
raining is a huge waste. The new
restriction that we are not to water our
lawns for two days after measurable
rain, in my humble opinion, is too
soon.
Some ways I try to save water are:
1. Save rain water from the downspouts - several areas. Five gallon
containers or lightweight 33 trash cans.
2. When I get up and am waiting for
the hot water to come, I catch the cold
water and use it for my coffee water.
3. Only flush for #2.
4. I don’t do this, but I have heard
of people reusing their bath water to
water their plants.
5. Take what I call an “RV” shower.
Turn the shower on (You can save the
cold water here, too) get all wet, turn
the water off, soap up, then turn the
water on again and rinse.
6. I hope everyone is already doing
this, but you don’t need to run the
water while brushing your teeth.
I know there are lots of other ways
to save and I’m sure that if we don’t
all use less water, we are asking for
more rationing, higher rates and possibly fines.
Of course if it gets bad enough,
there could be water shut-offs.
I have to go now, I’m getting thirsty
typing all this drought stuff.

Opinion
Help animal lovers convince city council to do the right thing
By Pam Ingalls
I
n just over a week, the City
Council will make a critical decision about animal
welfare in Calistoga. On April 21,
the council will decide whether
to contract for animal control
with Petaluma Animal Services, a
partner of Wine Country Animal
Lovers, or give the contract to the
county agency the city abandoned
seven years ago because of bad
service and high costs.
Prior to 2008, Calistoga contracted for animal control with the
county. The service was unacceptable and the city, faced with
tighter and tighter budgets, terminated the contract. Since then,
the Calistoga Police Department
has referred homeless and injured
animals to Dr. Steve Franquelin,
who has used his own resources to
care for those animals until their
owners or new homes could be
found.
WCAL was founded in 2012
Pam Ingalls and Raider
in part to accept donations so that
Dr. Franquelin could be partially
compensated for the work he has
been providing on behalf of the
city. WCAL and Petaluma Animal
Services are now proposing an
agreement with the city under
which PAS would respond to
animal control calls in Calistoga.
Initially, animals picked up by
PAS would be taken to their nokill shelter in Petaluma, although
WCAL would continue to facili-
tate the search for their owners or
help locate new homes for them.
Once zoning technicalities at the
Calistoga Pet Clinic are resolved,
PAS officers would transport animals directly to the clinic, where
they would continue to have access to medical treatment, humane
sheltering and WCAL’s highly
successful adoption program. The
arrangement would not only keep
the animals in our community, it
would provide a vehicle for the
city to compensate Dr. Franquelin
for the services he has long been
providing at his own expense.
The County of Napa is also
seeking a new contract with the
city and some officials appear to
be considering their proposal. This
is astonishing considering Napa
County Animal Control’s record
of poor service to our community.
It is also unfortunate given the
uncertain fate animals face when
taken to the county pound. Napa
County’s own records show that
an average of 20 percent of the
dogs and cats taken to the pound
are killed. By contrast, WCAL
and PAS both have euthanization
rates of less than 1 percent.
The most significant problem
with the county’s performance
was the extraordinarily long time
it took them to respond to calls
from Calistoga. At a recent City
Council meeting, one councilman
recalled an incident in which he
watched a deer suffer for hours
while local firefighters waited for
county animal control officers to
arrive. Although Calistogans think
of Petaluma as being a world
away, PAS’s headquarters are
only about three minutes farther
away than the county pound, and
in its proposed contract, PAS has
guaranteed a response time to
Calistoga of one hour or less. PAS
also has a record of outstanding
service to smaller communities; it
now holds animal control contracts in Healdsburg and Cloverdale, as well as in Petaluma.
There is another issue that
needs to be addressed, and that is
the enormous debt of appreciation
the Calistoga community and its
city government owe Dr. Franquelin. Should the city now award
the contract for animal services to
the county, it would be a profound
display of ingratitude on the part
of a government agency that
spent many years benefitting from
Dr. Franquelin’s kindness and
generosity, at a savings to the city
of more than a hundred thousand
dollars.
WCAL needs your help to
make sure the city doesn’t do the
wrong thing. Before April 21,
please write, call or visit members
of the Calistoga City Council to
let them know that you support
an animal control contract with
Petaluma Animal Services. Also,
please consider attending the
April 21 council meeting so you
can urge the council to act with
fairness and concern for animals
in our community.

Love Poem
by Melissa Balmain
I don’t think
I’ve ever sold
anything that,
later, I didn’t
wish I had back,
and I have a
list of regrets as
long as my arm.
So this poem by
Melissa Balmain
really caught
my attention.
Balmain lives
in New York
State, and her
most recent
book is Walking
in on People,
from Able Muse
Press.
The afternoon we left our first apartment,
we scrubbed it down from ceiling to parquet.
Who knew the place could smell like lemon muffins?
It suddenly seemed nuts to move away.
The morning someone bought our station wagon,
it gleamed with wax and every piston purred.
That car looked like a centerfold in Hot Rod!
Too late, we saw that selling was absurd.
And then there was the freshly tuned piano
we passed along to neighbors with a wince.
We told ourselves we’d find one even better;
instead we’ve missed its timbre ever since.
So if, God help us, we are ever tempted
to ditch our marriage when it’s lost its glow,
let’s give the thing our finest spit and polish—
and, having learned our lesson, not let go.

Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress from 2004-2006.
O
hhhhh! Dark clouds
on the western horizon
look to be moving
from south to north.
The last speck of sunlight has
just disappeared behind them and
I am praying for precipitation. A
lot would be wonderful, but any
will be welcome. Probably it will
be the latter. Just enough to give
foliage a bath and barely enough
to wet the earth. We know things
are not good in the water department. Although winter was not
as dry as the previous one, it was
far from normal. My cherry tree
usually provides a profuse bloom
but this year, barely a show. Other
things which I never count on
for much have provided quite the
opposite. It’s always interesting
to watch nature governing itself
based on current conditions. Be-
yond our control and demanding
respect.
By contrast, if you drive down
Highway 280 from San Francisco,
around Hillsborough past Los Altos Hills and on into Cupertino, it
wouldn’t occur to you California
has a water shortage. The hillsides
are more green than I can remember, the result, most likely, of well
timed late rain, and San Mateo’s
Crystal Springs Lakes are full. It’s
deceiving. In a serious but lesser
drought in the 70s, I watched as,
on a regular basis, the high water
marks were visible on the banks
above progressively revealed
lower and lower rings. The bottom of the Springs loomed large.
Not unlike Lake Berryessa.
So, we are asked, once again,
to reduce our usage. It is for us,
doable. If push came to shove
we could buy water in bottles for
our consumption. But the critters
roaming the countryside are suffering. Showing signs of a lack of
available water, rescue centers are
experiencing a very early influx
of abandoned young. Feathered
and furred. Some centers have
issued pleas that we humans put
Tribune MysTery PhoTo
out water so the wild ones have
access. This is in conflict with the
request that we eliminate standing
water around our homes in which
mosquitoes can lay their eggs.
There are solutions honoring
both. Moving water attracts water
drinking insects and wildlife
while discouraging mosquitos
from landing and laying eggs.
Friends use something called a
“water wiggler” available on line
and it worked fabulously. You
can find solar or battery powered
wigglers at a reasonable price.
Keeping an eye out for larva, under any circumstances, is always
advisable.
Water sources should be
adjusted for the height of the
critters they are meant to sustain.
We have a tendency to think bird
baths, not necessarily about dishes
or bowls of water for ground travelers: squirrels, possum, skunk,
raccoon, etc. We may not necessarily seek out their company but
all deserve a potable source of
water and this does not violate
the rule that humans should not
provide food for wildlife. For the
good of wildlife.

Napa County Master Gardeners offers gardeners a checkoff list
to keep gardens thriving but also
reduce water use.
• Check, adjust, and repair
pipes, valves, and sprinkler heads
to make sure there are no leaks
and no water is being wasted.
• Replace worn out irrigation
system components and consider
upgrading systems that are over
10 years old with new, higher efficiency components.
• Convert sprinkler or bubbler
heads to drip irrigation wherever
possible.
• Hydrozone group plants with
the same water needs onto the
same valve or line.
• Move drip emitters away
from the crowns, out to the drip
line for trees and shrubs that have
grown since the original irrigation
was installed.
• Irrigate in the early morning,
between the hours of 2 a.m. – 7
a.m., when there is no wind and
little evaporation.
• Know your soil type and water
to match the infiltration rate of
your soil to avoid runoff. Irrigate
more frequently with shorter runtimes for sandy soil, so that water
is not wasted below the rooting
depth. Irrigate less frequently but
with longer runtimes for loam and
clay soils.
• On slopes and areas with
compacted soils, avoid water
runoff by using multiple (cycled)
start times (also called pulse irrigation) to allow water to soak in
slowly.
• Adjust spray heads so that no
water runs off onto sidewalks or
into the street.
• Water as little as possible!
• Operate your controller
manually. Check soil moisture
(dig down or use a moisture
meter) and water only when the
soil is dry.
• Adjust irrigation frequency
and runtimes down gradually, to
water plants as little as possible
to keep them alive. Get used to
plants that don’t look perfect.
• Consider upgrading the
irrigation controller to a ‘smart’
controller, which automatically
calculates seasonal setbacks.
Prioritize Your Plants
• Determine which plants are
susceptible to drought stress.
When prioritizing what to keep
and what to let go, consider
replacement costs, prominence in
the landscape, and the length of
time for plants to reach maturity.
• Be aware there may be NO
landscape watering allowed
if conservation measures are
inadequate. Consider letting go of
high water use plants (even those
that are high priority), and replacing them later with more drought
tolerant plants.
• High priority plants are usually trees, shrubs, and fruit and
nut trees – that provide shade, are
expensive to replace, and take a
long time to mature.
• Those that have not yet
reached mature size will require
the most irrigation
New Plants
Do not introduce new plants
to your landscape during a severe
drought. Even California native
plants aren’t drought-resistant until they become well established.
When water restrictions allow for
new plants to be introduced into
your landscape, select drought
tolerant varieties appropriate for
your climate zone. Introduce new
plants during the fall, allowing
them to become established by
winter rain.
Ornamental Trees
One or two deep irrigations
with a garden hose several weeks
apart in spring and summer will
often keep trees alive through
summer, especially if roots are
relatively deep. Will drop leaves
or wilt under severe water shortage, but with appropriate care will
survive.
Fruit and Nut Trees
Early-season water applications will keep trees alive, but
reduces fruit production
To produce a good harvest,
deciduous fruit and nut trees need
adequate water in their root zones
continuously from bloom until
harvest.

Put Up or Shut Up: Get your fair entries ready!
Fair Warning
OK! Who opened the last
jar of Pickled Beets with Vince
Tofanelli’s 2008 Family Vineyard,
Napa Valley Zinfandel?
Why do you ask?
Because the Napa County
Fair is creeping up and if you
are planning on submitting a jar
or two of last summer’s canning
glories, now is the time to secure
two jars of each item you plan to
enter and safely put them aside
and out of sight. I did this two
weeks ago and discovered I have
15 items to enter.
So 30 jars are safely put
away…one for show during the
Fair and one for the judge to taste.
Both jars will require a label on
the bottom of the jar with name
and address. Plus, a nice looking label on the side of the jar
identifying the contents. Those
pesky address labels we all get
in the mail work perfectly for the
bottom sticker. Anything put up
this year is of course included i.e.
strawberry jam, rhubarb and other
early crops.
One of my faves from last
summer was Roasted Peach
Butter. Tastes like it did the day
I made it. Unfortunately it is
beginning to turn amber and I will
be lucky to have two jars looking
good by Fair time. I have researched the why of top browning
in yellow fruit preserves…poor
seal (not in this case) or stored in
why did I make so many Watermelon Pickles?
Rosie Dunsford
Calistoga Inn & Brewery
too warm a place. I’m going with
too warm a storage place. I moved
the peach butter to the fridge last
fall but not soon enough. This
year it goes in right away.
My very, very best fave was
the Slow Roasted Tomato Slabs
packed in olive oil and balsamic
vinegar. Not only are they delish
but they last forever in the fridge
after opening.
My biggest disappointment
is the Bread and Butter Pickle.
Mushy! The Ball Complete Book
of Home Preserving says I should
add Pickle Crisp. Hmmmm. Also,

The Napa County Fair - 2015
Dorothy Bennett – Best of Show
Award – Preserved Foods
I never met Dottie but I sure
knew of her. Anyone entering an
item in the fair stood cheek by
jowl beside Ms. Bennett’s entries…dozens of entries. Painting,
sculpting, cooking, sewing, weaving, flower arranging, canning,
baking, horticulture, knitting,
crocheting and quilting to name
a few. So why not give Dottie
her due this year and have a nice
award in her name. Unfortunately
Dottie passed in December of
2013. You are remembered girlfriend.

Michael Finkelstein, MD | April 27, 2015
Transform the War into a Treasure Hunt
Dr. Finkelstein, renowned physician who specializes in Integrative Medicine and
author of Slow Medicine: The Best Quick Fix for your Health, has discovered that
the most effective approach to cancer is embracing it as an opportunity, instead of
framing it as a battle. Rather than making cancer the focus by fighting the disease,
patients make themselves the focus by optimizing every area of their liveseating nutritious food, aligning the body and mind through guided imagery and
meditations, practicing self-expression through music, dance, writing and painting,
enjoying natural settings. Learn how to cultivate the “terrain” of life that is not only
passionate and joyous, but as a byproduct, is inhospitable to cancer.

time of need. Examples will be given from William James’ classic, The Varieties

What happened to create the
TTHM’s level above the regulation level?
To protect drinking water from disease-causing organisms, or pathogens, chlorine is added to drinking
water as a disinfectant. However,
disinfection byproducts can form
when organic-rich water, is disinfected. A major challenge for the
City of Calistoga and all municipal
water systems is how to control
and limit risks from pathogens and
simultaneously minimize disinfection byproduct formation. Disinfection byproducts tend to be highest
when naturally-occurring organic
matter is elevated in our surface
water supplies from the Delta due
to prolonged drought conditions,
winter rains, and during periods of
long detention times in the North
Bay Aqueduct water transmission
main.
We routinely monitor for the
presence of drinking water contaminants throughout our entire
water system. As of October 2012,
the standard that applies to the
City of Calistoga’s system for disinfection byproducts changed significantly. The maximum limit for the
annual average of TTHM’s at each
sampling location is 80 micrograms
per liter (ug/L).
At the City’s sample location at
414 Washington Street the TTHM
results received on February 4, 2015
were 103 ug/l and averaged 85 ul/L
over the last twelve months at this
sampling location. This is above the
maximum level of 80 ug/L and
therefore requires the City to inform
What should I do?

Our water system recently exceeded a new drinking water standard
for disinfection byproducts called
total trihalomethanes (TTHM) in
the vicinity of your service meter.
Although this is not an emergency,
as our customers, you have a right
to know what you should do, what
happened, and what we are doing
to correct this situation.

our customers of the results and
the reason why their water did not
meet regulations.
Due to the drought in 2014 the
City of Calistoga made the conscious decision to “bank” our local
surface water supply at Lake
Kimball and use more Delta water
from the State Water Project delivered through the North Bay
Aqueduct (NBA) transmission main
and which is treated by the City of
Napa. This decision was made to
preserve the local water supply in
the event the State curtailed our
NBA supply in 2014. If the State had
curtailed our water from the Delta,
and we had not managed our local
supply well, we could have been
severely limited in our ability to
meet the City’s water demands.
How we manage our water supply sources plays a significant role
in the formation of TTHM levels.
When we receive water from the
Delta, the water travels up to 38
miles in a pipeline before it enters
our water distribution system. Detention time in the NBA transmission main, or the time it takes for
the water to travel in that pipeline,
is a major variable to formation of
TTHM’s. Another contributing factor is the prolonged drought, the
accumulation of organic material in
the watershed, and the unusual
low flows in the Delta due to the
drought.
What is being done?
The City is operating our Kimball
Water Treatment Plant more often
and it has been providing water at
a lower TTHM value than the water
we receive through the NBA trans-
mission line. We will continue to
operate the Kimball Water Plant to
the greatest extent possible, while
at the same time taking into consideration current water supply
projections to ensure an adequate
local supply during peak demand
times.
We are managing our water
tanks to circulate more water
through the tank on a more frequent interval. More circulation
leads to lower TTHM values. We
also recently installed a mixing
device in the Mt. Washington tank
which should help reduce TTHM
formation. We are also exploring
methods to improving mixing in the
Feige storage tank.
We continue to test water samples and evaluate TTHM results
both from Kimball supplied water
and water from the NBA. Future
actions and plans are dependent
on the results of these tests. We
will be working closely with the City
of Napa to develop appropriate
methods to reduce formation of
TTHM’s. At the present time we
do not have sufficient information
to make recommendations for capital investments or when those
may occur and we will be working
closely with the State Division of
Drinking Water to develop appropriate corrective action.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS:
If you are considering bidding on
this property lien, you should
understand that there are risks
involved in bidding at a trustee
auction. You will be bidding on a
lien, not on the property itself.
Placing the highest bid at a trustee
auction does not automatically
entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should
also be aware that the lien being
auctioned off may be a junior lien.
If you are the highest bidder at the
auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior
to the lien being auctioned off,
before you can receive clear title to
the property. You are encouraged
to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens
that may exist on this property by
contacting the county recorder’s
office or a title insurance company,
either of which may charge you a
fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you
should be aware that the same
lender may hold more than one
mortgage or deed of trust on this
property.
Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid less than the
total debt owed, it is possible that
at the time of the sale the opening
bid may be less than the total
debt.
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER:
The sale date shown on this notice
of sale may be postponed one or
more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the
California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made
available to you and to the public,
as a courtesy to those not present
at the sale. If you wish to learn
whether your sale date has been
postponed, and, if applicable, the
rescheduled time and date for the
sale of this property, you may call

“We are thrilled to bring a show
of this magnitude to the Calistoga
Speedway in April,” said Chris
Morgan of Motorsports Ventures.
.“Having the World of Outlaws &
King of the West Sprint Car Series
co-sanction the weekend should
give us one of the best fields of
Winged 410 Sprint Cars we’ve
seen in some time at Calistoga.
“Adding in the Civil War Series
and the Hunt Series is icing on the
cake so we hope the fans are excited, because I know we are.”
Over the last couple years Calistoga Speedway has seen a total
transformation, with immense
work going on at one of California’s most famous dirt ovals. In

addition to the various facility
upgrades that include a new catch
fence all the way around the track,
a booming new sound system and
new scoreboards, lots of work
went into the racing surface, which
is now wider and features a better
degree of banking, with smoother
transitions into the corners. The
racing has benefited and has been
given a big thumbs-up by all involved.
“The amount of work that has
gone into Calistoga Speedway
has been simply amazing,” commented Morgan. “All the support
that the track has received is pretty
special and with the effort they’ve
put into this place, it’s launched it
right back up there with the best
dirt track facilities we have on the
west coast.
“If you haven’t had the chance
to visit Calistoga since all the
work, we truly encourage you to
come and check it out. Last year’s
World of Outlaws weekend was
great and it will be even better this
time around.”

son was swept by Kasey Kahne
Racing teammates Brad Sweet and
Daryn Pittman. The victory for
Sweet, a native of Grass Valley,
California, was his first career triumph at the Calistoga half-mile.
Pittman’s victory during the finale led a podium sweep by KKR,
with Sweet coming home second
and Red Lion, Pennsylvania’s
Cody Darrah in third. The all-time
Calistoga Speedway track record
also fell during the weekend, with
the first sub 16-second laps recorded in track history. Brownsburg,
Indiana’s Joey Saldana set the
mark on opening night at a blistering 15.731.
The King of the West Sprint Car
Series competed at the track last
June and local favorite Rico Abreu
from Rutherford scored victory in
the Wine Country Classic.
Even more track work had gone
on prior to the event and what
transpired was some of the best
Winged Sprint Car racing seen at
Calistoga. Passing was prevalent
all night long and Abreu captured a
great main event over Chico’s Jonathan Allard and eventual KWS
champion Kyle Hirst. The King
of the West 410’s will once again
compete in the Wine Country Classic on June 27 of this year.
All Time Legend Leroy Van Connett is named Grand Marshall, celebrates 80th Birthday at Calistoga.
After recently winning the Chili
Bowl Midget Nationals and announcing his intention to run the
NASCAR K&N Pro Series East,
Abreu will return to Calistoga
Speedway on April 11 & 12 looking to add a World of Outlaws win
at his home track.
The now 23-year-old, last season captured the Louie Vermeil
Classic with the USAC/ CRA Series in August and also won opening night with the USAC Western
Midgets. Abreu also tallied a pair
of top-five finishes with the World
of Outlaws at the Napa County
Fairgrounds facility last April
aboard his familiar Abreu Vineyards No. 24 machine.
The Saturday April 11 appearance at Calistoga by the Civil War
360 Sprint Car Series presented
by Flowmaster will mark the first
race at the track for the tour since it
picked up the victory in 2012.
