OCP backgrounder	Is there enough water?
	Tofino replay?

When I took query to Engineering department, Bob Thompson was ‘speechless’:
Never happen here – we have more water than we will ever need

Plus recently upgraded pipe from Shawatlans

After investigating – I agree (about quantity available –will need further investigations into size pipes etc)

‘If need be, we could still pump water from Shwatlans’--

‘We used to pump water from Shwatlans’

Not sure why ‘we’ collectively did not pay more attention to this --- a great idea – we now get our water from Woodworth lake – and it is gravity fed to PR --- thus increasing volume and reducing costs

Shawatlans precipitation graph from this site

But it rains in PR

With global warming we could expect what? Warmer temperatures but more or less rain?

Here is AWOS Precip Shwatlans presumably where image on left ultimately from--- but ends in 1999 w more Federal budget cuts
