occurred during the winter season of 1966-1967; and

conservation of wathers which without such works are wasted in the sea; and

County Flood Control District is the only entity in the County of Orange established,
staffed and capable of coping with the many problems of control runoff and storm
waters which, lacking control, cause inestimable damage to adjacent and low lying
lands, costly disruption of normal municipal functions and an irreplaceable waste
of waters to the sea.
