(1) Discussion/approval/disapproval of authorizing the Pinal County Emergency Manager to sign a letter addressed to the USDA National Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), requesting assistance through the Emergency Watershed Protection program, on behalf of Asarco Ray Mine in Kearny, AZ. The Telegraph Fire of 2021 and subsequent monsoon season caused significant damages to the watersheds that feed into Big Box Lake which caused damages to the lake and to Big Box Dam, which Asarco manages as part of mining operations. The Emergency Watershed Protection grant program may be a viable funding source to assist in the recovery efforts for the area and the 60-day waiver request was recently granted by the NRCS to Pinal County in order to submit a request for assistance. Pinal County is a potential "Eligible Sponsor" in accordance with program guidelines. The request for assistance does not obligate Pinal County in any manner however further discussions and agreements between the County and Asarco will now need to occur and entered into before the County were to become a sponsor for the recovery project. Supervisor District #1. (GA21-051) (Charles Kmet/Andrew Smith)
(2) Work Session: Presentation and discussion of Pinal County's current practices for financial audits. (Angeline Woods)
(3) Executive Session pursuant to A.R.S. 38-431.03(A)(1)(3) to provide legal advice to the Board regarding the authority to appoint fire district board members and discussion of potential appointments to the Mammoth Fire District Board of Directors. (Kevin Costello/Kent Volkmer)
(4) Discussion/approval/disapproval for the appointment of two (2) board members for the Mammoth Fire District. Currently, the Mammoth Fire District does not have a quorum. Pursuant to A.R.S. 48-803(B) the County Board of Supervisors has the authority to appoint a replacement since the Fire District Board cannot due to a lack of a quorum.
