Announcements:

• Carl is planning to run a small fundraiser stand selling food and drinks on campus. He wants to run it from 8-12 each morning next fall as often as possible. Issues involving volunteers (and possible compensations) as well as where to get supplies and how to either store them or replace items each day are still being considered.

• Malia is asking for everyone to contribute recipes  for  her El Salvador cookbook to sell as a fundraiser.

Agenda:

The design team will continue to discuss the potential of ferrocement over cinderblock tanks. A price comparison will be brought in for next week.

• Tank size (a minimum of 2000L) and what size polyducto (1-1/2″) to use for a test line were decided.

The grant writing team will continue to work on the TAC report for the lower las Mercedes system.
