Meeting Date: To: From: Presented By: Prepared By: Subject: SUMMARY: ITEM NO. 4.1 AGENDA REPORT October 27, 2014 Citizens Advisory Committee Marc Marcantonio, General Manager Damon Micalizzi, Public Information Manager Damon Micalizzi, Public Information Manager Proposition 1 — The Water Quality, Supply and Infrastructure Act of 2014 With the state in the midst of a water crisis, California voters will consider a $7.5 billion water bond this November. The Yorba Linda Water District Board of Directors voted unanimously to support the Water Bond, which will appear on the ballot as Proposition 1 - The Water Quality, Supply and Infrastructure Act of 2014. Prop 1 comes after five years of retooling in the Legislature. This bond, if approved, contains $7.1 billion of new debt and $425 million of repurposed bond funds previously approved by voters. Proposition 1 is designed to provide funding for new much needed water storage projects, watershed protection, sustainable groundwater management and cleanup, water recycling — including desalination projects, water conservation and water use efficiency projects, statewide flood management, and safe drinking water. It should be noted that Proposition 1 has nothing to do with the Bay Delta Conservation Plan, nor the much discussed Delta Tunnels. And while Prop 1 won't help with the current drought, nor will it guarantee against water rationing during future droughts, the projects it would fund would provide a greater cushion when we find ourselves dealing with prolonged water shortages in the future.

Barbre, Director — Division One SUBJECT: Monthly Water Usage Data, Tier 2 Projection & Water Supply Information The attached figures show the recent trend of water consumption in Orange County (OC), an estimate of Tier 2 volume for MWDOC, and selected water supply information. Fig. 1 OC Water Usage, Monthly by Supply Groundwater was the main supply in August. Fig. 2 OC Water Usage, Monthly, Comparison to Previous Years Water usage in August 2014 was average compared to the previous four Augusts. Fig. 3 Historical OC Water Consumption OC water consumption of about 622,000 AF in FY 2013 -14 was up about 3 -'/2 % from FY 2012 -13, but was still below the long -term average of about 630,000 AF /yr. Although OC population has increased 20% over the past two decades, water usage has not increased, on average. A long -term decrease in per- capita water usage is attributed mostly to Water Use Efficiency (water conservation) efforts. Fig. 4 MWDOC "Firm" Water Purchases, 2014 "Firm" water above the Tier 1 limit will be charged at the higher Tier 2 rate. Our current projection of Tier 2 purchases is zero in 2014. Water Supply Information Includes data on: Rainfall in OC; the OCWD Basin overdraft., Northern California and Colorado River Basin hydrologic data; the State Water Project (SWP) Allocation, and regional storage volumes. The data has implications for the magnitude of supplies from the three watersheds that are the principal sources of water for OC. Note that a hydrologic year is Oct. 1St through Sept. 30th. Orange County's accumulated rainfall in October through September was about one third of the average for this period. This continues the impact of the previous two hydrologic years' below - normal rainfall in reducing those local supplies that are derived from local runoff. Northern California accumulated precipitation in October through September was around 63% of normal for this period. The Northern California snowpack was 23% of normal as of April 1St, the date used for year -to -year comparison. This follows two below- average hydrologic years. The Governor has declared a Drought Emergency, and the State Water Project Contractors Table A Allocation is only 5% as of the end of July. This percentage may be increased a little, but it is certain that there will be less State Project water deliveries to MET and the other Contractors than in previous years. Colorado River Basin accumulated precipitation in October through September was a little under average for this period. The Upper Colorado Basin snowpack was 111 % of average as of April 15th, the date used for year -to -year comparison. However, this follows two below- average hydrologic years, and this watershed is in a long -term drought. Lake Mead and Lake Powell combined have about 60% of their average storage volume for this time of year. If Lake Mead's level falls below a "trigger' limit, then a shortage will be declared by the US Bureau of Reclamation (USBR), impacting Colorado River water deliveries for the Lower Basin states. The USBR predicts that the "trigger' limit could be reached as early as 2015. 80,000 70,000 w 60,000 w u 50,000 a 40,000 30,000 20,000 10,000 0 Fig. 1 OC Water Usage, Monthly by Supply with projection to end of fiscal year DRAFT - LO LO LO LO LO LO �-- L L Q (n O Z 0 li � Q Note: values shown include some estimation and are subject to change. ■ Import [1] ■ Other Local [2] ❑ OCWD Basin [3] ❑ projected [4] [1] Imported water for consumptive use.
