Dodge also discussed various expense accounts and responded to questions. b) Review Investment Portfolio and Reserve Fund Status Finance Manager Dodge presented the monthly activity and securities held in each of the Project's reserve funds.

Director Holmes stated that he believes the resolution should stand as approved. Director Holbrook stated that the resolution was originally passed primarily due to the drought and the corresponding weak Tri-Dam cash flow and minimal distributions to the Districts.
