five on-campus wells at a cost of
approximately $60,000 per year.
It is pumped up to and stored in the
campus water tower, with pressure gen¬
erated by gravity when the water is
needed.
The water is tested regularly by the
county for contamination, and "they have
yet to see anythin^in the wells," said
Cuneo.
CSUFs agricultural department has a
separate system to meet its water needs,
which fluctuate based on weather and crop
demands, according to Jim Dilliard, farm
supervisor.
Thc farm's needs are currently met by
surface water supplied through the Fresno
.Irrigation District, and it should not need
to tap into its 16 wells until mid¬
summer. By using the irrigation district
supply as' long as possible, the already
low underground water supply is con¬
served and energy costs associated with
pumping are avoided, Dilliard said.
According to Cuneo, the underground
aquifer that is the source of water for the
university—and city of Fresno—has been
dropping at a rate of about one foot per
year, and is now about 100 feet below
ground. It was only 35 feet below the
surface in the 1950s, Cuneo said.
"We're basically sucking water out of
the ground," Cuneo said of the supply
which is not being replaced at the rate it
once was because of the current drought
and increased municipal demands.
While Cuneo does not see CSUFs situ¬
ation as a major problem, the school will
eventually be forced to dig new anddeeper
wells to keep up, steps which will add
additional expenses to water procurement.
Dave Todd, city-water conservation
manager, said the campus is just one of
many agencies which take from thc same
ground water source. ,
"It's like we all have our straws in thc
same drink," Todd said of the many wells
drawing from the aquifer under Fresno.
University water users coordinate con¬
servation efforts through government
agencies, and local groups such as the
drought task force.
While the school does not have any
campus-wide water conservation program
in effect, measures have been taken in the
past to cut usage.
Dilliard said the farm tries to use the
most efficient kinds of irrigation avail¬
able, but must use other forms for certain
teaching purposes.
"We fry to be as careful as possible,"
Dilliard said.

Roberti said the government must ad¬
dress the root causes of drug use as part of
the solution.
While there is still some resistance to
committing resources to fight the spread
of AIDS, the restraints are not as great as
y they would have been in the past
"Tbe public has come a long way,"
Roberti said, adding that 10 to 15 years
ago he could not have passed legislation
as he has recently.
According to Roberti, the important
thing is lhat people have come to realize
that AIDS is not restricted to only one
group, but is a problem which can touch
anyone.
"Within that reality, we have made
some changes," Roberti said.
