RE: water discharge into canyon
Dear Mr. Dalherbruch,
Pri:(,[1:[\/[ED
JAW I' 2010
City of Rolling Hills
By
Pursuant to your letter dated Jan. 6, 2010 regarding the possibility that the water
your representative observed eminating into the canyon, could be originating from
my property, please be advised that I recently viewed the area in question. As a
result, I concluded that the discharge is not sewer water, and a 99% chance that
the source of the discharge is not coming from my property for at least two
reasons.
One, that the angle of the pipe discharging the water, and it's location in
relationship to my property, suggests that the pipe is located not on my property,
but on one of the properties to the south. Secondly, I checked and rechecked every
possible source of water which could come from my property and found nothing
that would indicate, a) I have a leak in any system, or bJ a source for which a water
pipe such as the one discharging the water into the canyon, would be required on
my property.
Should you have any questions or comments regarding my findings, please feel free
to contact me at your convenience. (310-370-9801)

Thank you for your authorization allowing City representatives to inspect the canyon
below your residence for wet- and dry -weather water flow, litter and obtaining water
samples.
On January 5, 2010, the canyon was inspected and a pipe continuously discharging
water into the canyon was observed. Based on the location of the pipe, it appears to
originate from one of your properties. Enclosed are photographs of the pipe; we can
personally show you or your representative the location if you would like.
Under the City's storm water permit from the State and per the Municipal Code, it is
unlawful to discharge water into the canyon. Moreover, if the discharge represents an
irrigation leak, it is also wasteful of water during the current drought.
It is necessary that the discharge be eliminated as soon as possible to avoid penalties
upon the property owner and the City. Therefore, we request you take the appropriate
actions to evaluate the condition and advise the City by February 8, 2010 of your actions
to resolve the situation.
If you have any questions or would like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to
call Yolanta Schwartz or me at 310-377-1521..
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincer�J�,
