City of Pleasanton I Water Shortage Contingency Plan [LEAS. NTON <br /> • Salts, nutrients, or contaminants in the groundwater basin. <br /> 2 ANNUAL WATER SUPPLY AND DEMAND ASSESSMENT PROCEDURES <br /> Beginning July 1, 2022, CWC §10632.1 requires water suppliers to submit an Annual Water Supply and <br /> Demand Assessment(AWSDA)and an Annual Water Shortage Assessment Report to DWR.The AWSDA is <br /> used to evaluate near-term water supply reliability for the upcoming fiscal year so that the City can <br /> prepare logistically and financially for any anticipated water supply constraints, as well as enact <br /> appropriate shortage response actions in a timely manner. <br /> This section provides the procedures for the City to conduct its AWSDA,which will inform the City's Annual <br /> Water Shortage Assessment Report and assist the City with planning for potential water supply shortages, <br /> including details of the decision-making process, key data inputs, and the steps the City may take to <br /> declare a water shortage emergency based on the level of shortage (Section 3) and implement water <br /> shortage response actions (Section 4). Given the City's reliance on water from Zone 7, the City develops <br /> its AWSDA using Zone 7's "Annual Review of the Sustainable Water Supply Report" (Annual Sustainability <br /> Report). <br /> 2.1 Decision-Making Process <br /> To consistently produce its AWSDA, the City uses the decision-making process described in this section <br /> and may adjust and improve the process as needed. <br /> The City's Projection Team, consisting of the Utilities Planning Manager and the Assistant Director of <br /> Environmental Services and Utilities, is responsible for preparing/approving the City's AWSDA and Annual <br /> Water Shortage Assessment Report and submitting them to DWR by July 1st of each year. Staff gathers <br /> key data inputs and conducts the assessment in accordance with Section 2.2. In April,the Projection Team <br /> finalizes the assessment based on Zone 7's Annual Sustainability Report. The AWSDA and Annual Water <br /> Shortage Assessment Report is presented to the Assistant Director of Utilities and Environmental Services, <br /> or designee, for review and approval. If the AWSDA concludes that available water supply is sufficient to <br /> meet expected demands for the current year and one subsequent dry year, no further action is required. <br /> To conduct the AWSDA and prepare the Annual Water Shortage Assessment Report,the Projection Team <br /> follows the schedule of activities shown in Table 1.Due to year-to-year variations in hydrologic conditions, <br /> the timeframes shown in the tables are approximate and may be adjusted as needed.The City intends to <br /> implement shortage response actions to effectively address anticipated water shortage conditions in a <br /> timely manner while complying with the State's reporting requirements. <br /> Table 1.Schedule of Pleasanton's AWSDA and Annual Water Shortage Assessment Report Activities <br /> Schedule Activities Responsible Party <br /> Late summer- Utilities Planning Manager prepares City's demand estimates for next 5 <br /> fall of prior year years for delivery request to Zone 7,considering factors affecting supply Projection Team <br /> as described in Section 2.2. <br /> Projection Team reviews Zone 7's response to meet demands based on <br /> January Projection Team <br /> current year's conditions. <br /> March/April Review Zone 7's Annual Sustainability Report upon completion.
