(MOU gets the support requested)…The Memorandum of Understanding is between Imperial and Riverside Counties.

It deals with mutual supports and cooperative planning around the perimeter of the Salton Sea. The County had said they wanted the support of the Imperial Irrigation District, as well as the Salton Sea Authority. The IID said they supported the MOU, but some concerns needed to be added. They were concerned responsibility for the restoration of the Salton Sea could be questioned. Staff for the IID included concerns expressed by the board in the resolution adopted by the Directors at their meeting Tuesday. The resolution was adopted on a 3-0 vote. Directors Norma Sierra Galindo and Juanita Salas did not attend the meeting.
