TO: GOVERNING BOARD MEMBERS
FROM: GENERAL MANAGER/CEO
SUBJECT: FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR AUGUST 2012
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Board of Directors accept and file the attached financial statements,
s bject to audit.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
Revenue & Expenses
Water sales were $81,887 above projection for August, during which the District sold 763.5 MG
of water. As shown in the graph below, customer consumption for August 2012 was
significantly higher than consumption during August 2010 and 2011.
Other District operating revenues were $28,063 over projection in August, and Sewer Treatment
revenue, which is passed through to the City of SB was $426 under projection.
OlmratingExpenses
Water operating expenses were $13,010 under budget, and sewer operating expenses $13,129
,or der budget in August. One significant variance should be noted:
August is one of two months during the fiscal year which included three paydays. For
this reason, actual Supervision and Labor is significantly higher than budget in most of
the costs centers. This variance will smooth out over the next four months.

Reeb Government Relations, LLC
MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2012
TO: John Mura, General Manager
East Valley Water District
FROM: Bob Reeb and Raquel Ayala
Reeb Government Relations, LLC
SUBJECT: 2012 Annual Report
This is the fifth year that Reeb Government Relations has had the honor and privilege to work with
East 'Valley Water District (EVWD or District) to advance the interests of the District and its customers
in the State Capitol. Together, the EVWD Board of Directors, District management and staff, and
Reeb Government Relations continue to be an effective voice for common sense legislation and
regulations that enable rather than detract from pursuit of the District's mission.
State Budget and Proposition 30
Facing the threat of lost pay, state lawmakers sent a $92.1 billion spending plan to Governor Jerry
Brown on June 15 despite the lack of a budget agreement between legislative Democrats and the
Governor. Both houses of the Legislature swiftly passed seven budget trailer bills with little of the
drama that characterized late-night budget sessions of the past. This is the second time Democrats
have approved a spending plan using their majority -vote authority under Proposition 25, rather than
the supermajority vote required before 2011. The two houses voted along partisan lines, with most
Democrats in favor and Republicans opposed. Lawmakers had to pass a budget by the constitutional
deadline to avoid losing salary and per diem payments.
Although lawmakers made the June 15 deadline, they did not send the bulk of more than two dozen
"trailer" bills that detail how to cut programs and raise revenue. According to Senate President Pro
Tem Darrell Steinberg, Democrats did not pass all of the trailer bills because they wanted to finish
negotiaticros with the Governor before they voted on the measures. The two sides agreed on cuts to
courts and state workers, along with a November ballot initiative that, if approved by state voters,
would temporarily raise the sales tax and income tai: rates for high-income earners. They also relied
on new revenue to balance the budget from greenhouse -gas emission credit: auction proceeds,

borrowing $2.9 billion from special funds and relying on proceeds from a multistate settlement with
banks for past mortgage abuses.
Governor Brown signed the Fiscal Year 2012-13 budget on June 27 after the Legislature passed the
remaining trailer bills earlier that same day. Governor Brown used his line item veto authority to
reduce the budget by about $192 million. To close the $15.7 billion budget deficit, the $92 billion
budget makes deep cuts to social services and assumes that voters will pass the temporary tax
increase proposal on the November ballot (Proposition 30). The Governor says the state will cut
billions of dollars from higher education and public schools if Proposition 30 fails.
Proposition 30 would temporarily increase the state sales tax by one-quarter cent for every dollar,
beginning January 2013 and ending in 2016. It would also increase the existing 9.3 percent personal
income tax rate on higher income earners for seven years. These increases will apply to single filers
earning $250,000 or more a year and joint -filers making $500,000 or more a year. This revenue is
estimated to raise about $6 billion annually. The revenue from the measure will help the Governor
and the Legislature balance the FY 2012-13 budget and future state budgets. The measure would
also guarantee that local governments will annually receive tax revenues to fund program
responsibilities transferred to them by the state in 2011, according to Governor Brown. The
transferred program responsibilities include incarcerating certain adult offenders, supervising
parolees, and providing substance abuse treatment services.
A series of automatic cuts will be triggered if voters reject the tax initiative, including about $5.4 billion
in cuts to schools, community colleges and higher education, as well as three weeks less in the K-12
public school calendar for the next two years.
Pension Reform
On August 28—three days before the end of the legislative session—Governor Brown announced a
compromise with Democratic legislative leaders on changes to pension benefits for new public
employees, an agreement that includes legislation to cap pensions, curb pension spiking, increase to
50 percent the amount employees contribute to their retirement benefits and raise the retirement age.
According to the agreement, newly hired public safety employees would have to wait until age 57 to
retire with full benefits while current public safety workers can retire at 50. All other newly hired public
employees could retire with full benefits at age 67, instead of the current 55.
Lawmakers generally agreed to much of the pension plan unveiled by the governor last year, though
they softened several elements and rejected three of Brown's 12 goals outright, including a proposal
to create a "hybrid" model for public employees that included both a traditional defined benefit and
401(k) -style savings plan. Instead, Democrats and the Governor agreed to place a hard cap on the
amount of compensation that can be used when calculating retirement pay. Currently, there is no limit
on the pay by which a public employee's pension is calculated and some pensions run as high as
$500,000 a year. For public employees participating in Social Security, the proposed cap would be
based on the Social Security wage limit, which is currently $110,100 a year. Public workers not
paying into Social Security would have pensions based on a salary of up to 120 percent of the Social
Security wage limit, or $132,000 a year. Lawmakers rejected plans to change the makeup of the
CalPERS board of administration and Brown's proposal to increase state retiree health care vesting,
saying the issues should be settled at the bargaining table and that public employee unions are open
MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2012
Page 3
to negotiations on both of those issues. The bill package also included major changes to some of
Brown's most controversial proposals. Specifically, the pension reform legislation (AB 340) signed by
the GovE+rnor on September 12 would:
Cap Salaries
Cap salaries for calculating a pension at the Social Security contribution and wage base of
$1 10,100 (or 120 percent of that amount for employees not covered by Social Security).
Establish Equal Sharing of Pension Costs as the Standard
• Require new employees to contribute at least half of normal costs, and sets a similar target for
Current employees, subject to bargaining.
• Eliminate current restrictions that impede local employers from having their employees help
pay for pension liabilities.
• Permit employers to develop plans that are lower cost and lower risk if certified by the system's
actuary and approved by the legislature.
• Provide additional authority to local employers to require employees to pay for a greater share
of pension costs through impasse proceedings if they are unsuccessful in achieving the goal of
50-50 cost sharing in 5 years.
• Direct state savings from cost sharing toward additional payments to reduce the state's
unfunded liability.
Roll Back Retirement Ages and Formulas
• Increase retirement ages by two years or more for all new public employees.
• Roll back the unsustainable retirement benefit increases granted in 1999 and reduce the
benefits below the levels in effect for decades.
• Eliminate all 3 percent formulas going forward
- For local miscellaneous employees: 2.5 percent at 55 changes to 2 percent at 62; with a
maximum of 2.5 percent at 67.
- For local fire and police employees: 3 percent at 50 changes to 2.7 percent at 57.
• ElMablish consistent formulas for all new employees going forward.
End Abuses
• Require three-year final compensation to stop spiking for all new employees.
• Calculate benefits based on regular, recurring pay to stop spiking for all new employees.
• Lirnit post-retirement employment for all empNoyees.
• FE:lons will forfeit pension benefits.
• Prohibit retroactive pension increases for all employees.
• Prohibit pension holidays for all employees and employers.
• Prohibit purchases of service credit for all employees.

It's not yet clear how much money the changes will save the state. At his September 2 press
conference in Los Angeles, Governor Brown said these changes would save the state "billions" of
dollars, saying that "public retirement benefits will be lower than when I took office in 1975."
According to the cost analysis estimates produced by the California Public Employees' Retirement
System (CaIPERS) on August 31, the law will save between $42 billion and $55 billion over the next
30 years.
"This analysis does not include billions of dollars in additional potential savings that are expected from
other retirement systems in California," Rob Feckner, President of CaIPERS Board of Administration
said. "We expect the changes will also reduce abuse and add protections for members and
taxpayers."
Water Bond Delayed Until 2014
AB 1422, by Assembly Member Henry Perea, was amended on June 28 to change the submission
date for the Safe, Clean, and Reliable Drinking Water Supply Act (Water Bond) from the November
2012 general election to the November 2014 general election. The bond, which would provide a total
of $11.14 billion in funds for water supply, environmental restoration and groundwater protection
projects, was originally scheduled to be on the November 2010 ballot. The Legislature voted in 2010
to delay it until this year.
ACWA and other interest groups conducted surveys this year to gauge voter support for the bond.
The surveys showed that voters were unlikely to pass an $11.14 billion bond this year. This presented
two tough choices for supporters of the bond: (1) delay the water bond until 2014 when voter
perception of the bond might change, or (2) reduce the amount of the bond. In the end, a decision
was made to delay the bond. The Senate passed AB 1422 on July 5 with a 34 -2 vote, and the
Assembly passed it by a 69-7 vote later that same day. Both houses approved the urgency measure
on a two-thirds vote basis so the move would not be subject to legal challenge. Governor Brown
signed AB 1422 into law on July 9 (Chapter 74, Statutes of 2012). Moving the water bond to
November 2014 does not preclude efforts to shrink the size of the bond or change the content of the
proposal. Efforts in either direction could begin as early as next year.
District Remains Active on the Legislative Front
This year, the Governor was presented with a total of 996 bills; he signed 874, vetoed 120 and let two
bills become law without his signature. The Governor had 30 days to act on bills passed by the
Legislature on or after August 20, 2012; before that date, the Governor had 12 -days to act. This year,
77% (767) of bills acted on were in the 30 -day period.
The District actively monitored or engaged in direct lobbying on over 47 bills this year. Many of those
bills were 2 -year bills that were introduced in 2011 and did not move through the legislative process,
but were eligible for action in 2012. We will highlight only a handful of bills below on which the District
was active.
MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2012

2012 Human Right to Water Bill Package
The first Human Right to Water bill package was introduced in 2011, the first: year of the legislative
session. The package included six bills: AB 685 (Eng) relating to human right to water, AB 938 (V.M.
Perez) relating to language access on public health notifications, AB 983 (Perea) relating to access to
clean up and abatement funding, AB 1187 (Fong) relating to Drinking Water Plan, AB 1221 (Alejo)
relating to Drinking Water State Revolving Fund, and SB 244 (Wolk) relating to General Plans. The
Governor signed four of those bills into law last year—AB 938, AB 983, AB 1221, and SB 244—
stating that "clean drinking water is a basic human right' and that "protecting the water we drink is an
absolutely crucial duty of state government." AB 685 and AB 1187 failed to reach the governor's
desk, becoming 2 -year bills.
This year; AB 685 was taken up for another attempt at passage as part of the 2012 Human Right to
Water bill package, which included four newly introduced bills. We monitored the following bills from
the 2012 package on behalf of the District:
AB 685 (Eng) Human Right to Water - would establish a human right to water as a state policy
priority to ensure that all Californians have access to safe, affordable, and accessible water for
human consumption, cooking and sanitary purposes. This bill was first introduced in 2011. EVWD
took an "oppose unless amended" position on the bill unless it was amended to apply only to state
agencies - which would reflect the intent of the sponsors (i.e., that the State Water Board and
Department of Water Resources have not done enough to funnel state money into correcting
contaminated water wells and small community water systems). This approach would protect local
agencies against imposition of such a policy, protecting local rate setting authority and service
extenr,ion statutes, among others. A coalition in opposition to AB 685 quickly formed, which
included the Association of California Water Agencies, California Chamber of Commerce,
California Farm Bureau Federation, Desert Water Agency, East Valley Water District, EI Dorado
Irrigation District, Friant Water Authority, Kings River Conservation District, Kings River Water
Association, Valley Ag Water Coalition and Western Growers Association. AB 685 easily cleared
the Assembly, but ultimately was held in the Senate Appropriations Committee in August 2011.
The bill was amended in January 2012 to clarify some of its provisions, but those changes did not
address opposition concerns. Rumors surfaced in early August 2012 that AB 685 proponents
were pressuring the Senate Appropriations Committee to pass the bill. ACWA asked Reeb
Government Relations to assume leadership of the opposition coalition. An updated opposition
letter ,vas sent to the committee and Bob Reeb met with the committee and Republican caucus
consultants. On August 21, and with notice only appearing on that date, AB 685 passed the
Senate Appropriations Committee with a 5-2 vote. The bill was amended to limit state liability for
expenditures beyond typical state revolving fund appropriations. Despite opposition efforts, the bill
quickly passed the Senate Floor on a 22-16 vote. The coalition began working the Assembly Floor
and attempted to tie action on AB 685 to related two-thirds vote legislation. That effort ultimately
failed, but based on the recommendation of Reeb, opponents approached Assembly Member Eng
about placing a letter in the Assembly Daily Journal that contained the essential elements of
amendments that had been sought by opponents. Obtaining a letter to the Journal would establish
a record of the author's intent, and therefore supplement the legislative history of the bill.
MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2012
Page 6
Reeb drafted the letter, the essential elements of which included statements that the author did
not intend for his bill to alter existing policies or regulations relating to the granting, administration
or enforcement of water rights; and that it is not the author's intent that Section 106.3 alters
existing statutory requirements applicable to public water systems, including:
(1) statutorily -mandated procedures to terminate water service (i) for nonpayment of water bills
or (ii) for any violation of a rule or regulation adopted by a public water system or regulatory
agency, (2) compliance with any applicable water quality requirement established pursuant to
federal or state law; (3) compliance with any water planning process set forth in the Water
Code, including but not limited to Water Code Sections 10608-10608.64, the Urban Water
Planning Management Act (Water Code Sections 10610 et seq.), the Agricultural Water
Planning Management Act (Water Code Sections 10800 et seq.) and Water Code Sections
10910-10915); (4) compliance with any statutory requirement pursuant to the California
Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Sections 21000 et seq.); (5) compliance
with any statutory requirement pursuant to the Cortese -Knox -Hertzberg Local Government
Reorganization Act of 2000 (Government Code Sections 56000 et seq.); (6) declaration of a
water shortage emergency pursuant to Water Code Sections 350 et seq.; and (7) compliance
with any requirements pertaining to the Public Utilities Commission regulation of water utilities
pursuant to the Public Utilities Code.
Although the opposition coalition would have preferred that provisions related to these statements
be amended into the bill, the letter to the Assembly Daily Journal will provide value in terms of
litigation or changes in state policies or regulations that might result from the enactment of the bill.
AB 685 cleared the Assembly Floor on a 51-28 vote. The bill was signed into law September 25
(Chapter 524, Statutes of 2012).
AB 2238 (Perea) Public water systems: drinking water — would expand access to safe and
affordable water and wastewater treatment services by promoting the consolidation and merger of
small community water systems that serve existing low income communities. EVWD took an
"oppose unless amended" position to this bill. The District objected to three provisions in AB 2238,
including one that would require a local agency formation commission (LAFCO) to
comprehensively assess various alternatives for improving efficiency and affordability of
infrastructure and service delivery for drinking water and wastewater services. The March, 29,
2012 version of AB 2238 would have deleted that requirement whenever the commission or
executive officer of the commission made a written determination that the assessment was not
reasonable under the circumstances. The exception was important in that it would be a waste of
limited commission time and resources to assess alternatives in every area of a county. Moreover,
it is unlikely that commission staff will have the experience and expertise to conduct such an
assessment. Unfortunately, the amendment gained on March 29 was later reversed. The bill was
subsequently amended twice again to address the District's concerns, at which point a letter was
sent on behalf of EVWD removing opposition. The bill passed the Assembly floor, on May 31, on a
48-25 vote, and was referred to the Senate Environmental Quality Committee for consideration.
The bill was gutted and amended on August 24 to delete the previous version of the bill and
replaced with language that would expand actions available for emergency funding from the
Emergency Water Grant Fund (ECWGF), and define, for purposes of ECWGF, "public health
emergency" to include: (1) a public water system that serves a severely disadvantaged community
MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2012
Page 7
that lacks the technical or financial capacity to deliver potable water or has applied for specified
funding; and (2) the disruption or contamination of drinking water due to natural disasters. The
bill, as amended, would also have cap funding for emergency actions for an alternative water
suppled at $50,000 per public water system per public health emergency, and requires Department
Of PLIklic Health (DPH) to post on its Web site Safe Drinking Water State Revolving Fund
(SD" SRF) funding information regarding small community water systems serving disadvantaged
and severely disadvantaged communities. The District did not take a position on this new
amended version.
AEI 22.38 died in the Senate Appropriations Committee, after failing to meet the August 31
deadlme pursuant to Joint Rule 61 (b)(17) — last day for any bill to be passed.
Delta Le islq ation
Efforts to stall progress of the Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP) continued this year with the
introduction of three bills, AB 2000 by Assembly Member Alyson Huber (D -Lodi), and AB 2421 and
AB 2422 by Assemblymember Bill Berryhill (R -Ceres). The District joined a coalition in opposition to
the bills.
AB 2000 (Huber) Sacramento -San Joaquin Delta - would have required the Department of
Water Resources (DWR) to withdraw from its existing amended Memorandum Of Understanding
(MOA) with the export water agencies funding the planning of the Bay Delta Conservation Plan
(BDCP) and the U.S. Department of Interior Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation), and to enter
into a new MOA only if a list of requirements were met, including giving the Delta counties
decision-making authority over BDCP implementation; that BDCP evaluate non -diversion
alternatives; and require an independent review of the science behind BDCP. Further, the bill
would have appropriated all the remaining levee improvement funding from Propositions 84 and
1 E, to DWR, without the benefit of an economically -based risk reduction .and expenditure strategy.
The District took an 'oppose" position on this bill, questioning the wisdom and legality of the
provisions in AB 2000 that would require DWR to abandon the existing funding agreement during
the final months of the planning process. EVWD argued that AB 2000 would disrupt the BDCP
process and delay it for years, if not indefinitely, and threaten a process adopted in the 2009 Delta
Reform Act that created a path towards new Delta Conveyance and ecosystem recovery.
The bill failed passage on the Assembly Water, Parks and Wildlife Committee on April 24, with a
2-7 vc#e.
• AB 2421 (Berryhill, Bili) Bay Delta Conservation Plan - would have required an independent
third Party to conduct a cost -benefit analysis for any project being submitted by the Bay Delta
Conservation Plan (BDCP) to the Delta Plan.
The District took an "oppose' position on this bill stating that the bill was redundant and
unnecessary. EVWD, along with the coalition in opposition, argued that the legislature had already
adopted safeguards for new Delta conveyance that it deemed prudent back in 2009. Chapter 8 of
the draft BDCP outlines implementation cost estimated over the proposed 50 -year term of the
Plan, including the costs related to each of its primary components. Economic impacts of the
MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2012
Page 8
BDCP and the costs of alternative conveyance and/or habitat restoration options in the Delta will
be analyzed as part of the BDCP development and environmental review process, a process
which is still ongoing and - as announced by the California Resources Agency on May 3 - will be
delayed. In addition, the California Resources Agency has commissioned a full and
comprehensive analysis of the habitat and conveyance benefits under BDCP. The benefits
analysis is anticipated for release within the month. The funding source for the cost/benefit
analysis called for in AB 2421 was not identified. The public water agencies that are funding the
development of the BDCP and the environmental review were extremely concerned that the
burden for funding the analysis in AB 2421 would fall to them. Over the past six years, those same
public water agencies have invested over $150 million of water ratepayer funds for the planning,
development and scientific analysis behind BDCP.
The bill narrowly passed the committee and was sent to the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
The latter committee moved AB 2421 to its Suspense File on May 9, where it was held under
submission. The bill died in committee failing to meet the May 25 deadline for bills to be referred
to the floor.
• AB 2422 (Berryhill, Bill) Western Delta Intake Concept - would have directed the Department
of Water Resources (DWR) to expedite an evaluation and feasibility study of the Western Delta
Intakes Concept. Under the bill, if DWR were to determine the plan was "feasible," it would have
been directed to include recommendations regarding specific facilities to be constructed and
identify potential funding sources for implementation of the plan.
The District took an 'oppose" position on this bill, stating that various combinations of water
conveyance configurations, capacities, operations, and habitat restoration, and their effects on
biological resources and hydrology were already being evaluated; and that to throw yet another
variation of an alternative into the BDCP process would unnecessarily divert attention and
already -limited resources.

Metal Theft:
Metal theft continues to plague utilities and rural California as the price of certain metals continues to
make theft attractive to thieves. The theft of metals has devastated both public and private property
and has harmed critical public infrastructure, making it difficult to deliver essential utilities to
customers. Moreover, the theft of certain metal devices can seriously threaten public health and
safety. While several laws have been enacted to curb metal theft, it is still prevalent throughout
California. Several bills were introduced this year to address metal theft and strengthen current law.
We tracked the following bills on behalf of the District.
• AB 1971 (Buchanan) Theft: junk, metals, and secondhand materials - would increase the
maximum fine for junk and second-hand dealers who knowingly purchase metals used in
transportation or public utility services without due diligence from $250 to $1,000, and clarify that,
MEMORANDUM

for purposes of the vandalism statute, "damages' includes damage caused to public transit
properties and facilities, public park properties and facilities, and public utilities and water
properties and facilities, in the course of stealing or attempting to steal nonferrous material, as
defined in Section 21608.5 of the Business and Professions Code.
EVWD took a support position on this bill. The District argued that by stiffening the penalties for
receiving, without due diligence, metal objects that are normally used by a water utility, and
therefore likely to have been stolen, AB 1971 would create a greater deterrent to wrongdoers and
increase the incentive for junk dealers to exercise greater care when purchasing metal objects.
The bill passed the Senate Floor on a 33-0 vote and the Assembly on a 76-0 vote. AB 1971 was
signed into law by Governor Brown on July 10 (Chapter 82, Statutes of 2012)
• SB 1045 (Emmerson) Metal theft: damages - would prohibit a junk dealer or recycler from
possessing a reasonably recognizable, disassembled or inoperative fire hydrant, manhole cover
or lid, or backflow device or connection to that device without a written certification on the
letterhead of the agency or utility that owns or previously owned the material certifying that the
entity has sold or is offering the material for sale and that the person possessing and identified in
the; certificate is authorized to negotiate the sale of the material. Under the provisions of this bill,
junk dealers and recyclers caught with the specified materials, and without the proper paperwork,
would be civilly liable for actual damages, and also for exemplary damages of three times the
agency's or utility's actual damages, including the value of the material, the cost of replacing the
material, labor costs, and the cost of repairing any damage caused by the removal of the material,
unless the court determines that the extenuating circumstances do not justify awarding exemplary
damages.
EVWD took a "support" position on this bill. The District argued that the civil liability provisions that
would be enacted by SB 1045 would serve as an additional deterrent for the theft of these
materials. SB 1045 passed the Assembly Floor on a 77-0 vote and the Senate Floor on a 31-0
vote. SB 1045 was signed into law by Governor Brown on September 19 (Chapter 393, Statutes
of 2012).
• SB 1387 (Emmerson) Metal theft - would prohibit any junk dealer or recycler from possessing a
fire: hydrant, fire department connection, manhole cover or lid or any part of that cover or lid, or
backflow device or connection to that device without written certification on the letterhead of the
agency or utility that owns or previously owned the material and that the entity has sold or is
off erirg the material for sale, and that the person possessing the certificate and identified in the
ceilific.ate is authorized to negotiate the sale of the material. The bill would make the violation of
this prohibition punishable as a misdemeanor, as well as possessing any of the above listed
items, knowing that they were stolen, punishable by an additional fine of up to $3,000.
EVWD took a "support" position on this bill. The District argued that SB 1387 would eliminate the
attractiveness of manhole covers, backflow devices, and fire hydrants to metal thieves as there
should no longer be a buyer for these stolen items. The bill passed the Assembly Floor on a 77-1
vole and the Senate Floor on a 38-0 vote. SB 13137 was signed into law by Governor Brown on
September 27 (Chapter 656, statutes of 2012)

Environment: Proposition 84 and Groundwater Cleanup Projects
The Safe Drinking Water, Water Quality and Supply, Flood Control, River and Coastal Protection
Bond Act of 2006 (Proposition 84) makes $60 million available to the California Department of Public
Health (DPH) for the purpose of loans and grants for projects to prevent or reduce contamination of
groundwater that serves as a source of drinking water. The Act requires the department to require
repayment for costs that are subsequently recovered from parties responsible for the contamination.
Current law requires DPH, in collaboration of the Department of Toxic Substances Control and the
State Water Resources Control Board, to develop and adopt regulations governing the repayment of
costs that are subsequently recovered from parties responsible for the contamination of groundwater.
AB 467, by Assemblymember Mike Eng (D -Monterey Park), would instead require DPH, in
collaboration with those agencies, to develop guidelines governing this repayment. The bill would
authorize the department to enter into an agreement with a grantee that would require the grantee to
attempt to recover the costs from responsible parties and would allow grantees to utilize the
repayments to fund activities authorized in the agreement. The bill would also make a declaration
concerning the utilization of those repayments. EVWD took an 'oppose unless amended" position on
the bill, objecting to the provision in AB 467 that authorizes DPH to require a grantee to take
appropriate action to attempt to recover the costs of cleanup from the parties responsible for the
contamination.
In the decade of the 1990s, California public water systems were forced to address groundwater
contamination from leaking underground storage tanks that allowed Methyl Tertiary -Butyl Ether
(MTBE) to enter groundwater that serves as a source for drinking water. The Association of California
Water Agencies (ACWA) worked with Senator Byron Sher on legislation to ban the chemical additive
and to establish a state fund to assist public water systems with drilling new wells or purchasing
replacement water. The source of funding came from the Leaking Underground Storage Tank (LUST)
Cleanup and Abatement Account. During the course of legislative debate over the use of funds from
the latter account, Senator Sher was forced to accept an amendment that required public water
systems to pursue cost recovery from potentially responsible parties. Any funds that were captured
were to pay back the LUST monies provided to the water system.
In the several years that followed enactment of the Sher legislation, it became apparent that (1) the
cost for most local agencies to pursue cost recovery approached or exceeded the total amount of
state financial assistance provided, and (2) many small- and medium- size agencies were not
applying for state financial assistance due to the cost recovery requirement. ACWA again approached
Senator Sher to address this concerns as what was happening in the field was not consistent with the
intent of the Legislature that local agencies access state financial assistance to rapidly replace
contaminated drinking water supply. Subsequent negotiations placed a limit on the cost recovery
mandate, allowing a local agency that received less than $1 million in state funding to forgo the
mandate.
In opposing AB 467, EVWD argued that by authorizing DPH to require a grantee to attempt to recover
the costs to remediate contaminated groundwater from responsible parties, the bill would repeat the
unintended consequences experienced with state funding to assist local agencies address MTBE

contamir:ation. Currently, while Proposition 84 requires a local agency to repay the state should costs
be recovered, it does not mandate a local agency to pursue the cost recovery.
On May 23, 2012, the bill was amended to address the District's concerns, by deleting provisions
from the bill that would have required the grantee to take appropriate action to recover the costs of
cleanup from the parties responsible for the contamination. Based on this amended version, EVWD
removed its opposition to the bill. AB 467 the Senate Floor on August 22, with a 38-0 vote, and the
Assembly Floor on August 24, with a 77-0 vote. The measure was vetoed on September 25 by
Governor Brown, who stated:
"This bill would allow recipients of Proposition 84 groundwater clean-up funds to leverage
those funds by removing the requirement of having to pay back those state funds when they
recover funding from parties responsible for the contamination, if they used the recovered
funds for continued clean-up of their groundwater. l support the leveraging of all available
funding by ensuring that recovered funds are effectively used in the jurisdictions that recover
them. Unfortunately, the structure that was developed is cumbersome and inefficient l am
directing the Department of Public Health and the Department of Toxic Substances Control, to
once again work with the Legislature to develop a more streamlined way to reinvest these
funds. "
Wells: Reports: Public Availability.
SB 1146, by Senator Fran Pavley, would require DVHR to make well completion reports for water
wells available to the public. Well reports are a record of the drilling and construction of a
groundwater well. They demonstrate that the well was properly constructed. Well completion reports
(or "logs") include the location of the well, the depth of the well, the type of soils encountered, and
depth to water. According to Senator Pavley: "These reports contain critical information for
groundwater managers, consulting hydrologists, academics, and others interested in the geology and
hydrologi:- characteristics of groundwater basins. Unfortunately, those who would benefit from this
information cannot have access to it."
EVWD disagreed with the author, stating that persons who require access to well reports have
access to those reports by way of any government agency or for the purpose; of studying groundwater
contamination. The District took an "oppose unless amended" position on the bill, arguing that SB
1146 went far beyond the concerns expressed by the Senator, making well completion reports
available to the public in general.
Reeb Government Relations grew the opposition coalition between the Senate policy committee
hearing and the Senate Floor, building a coalition that consisted of the California Bottled Water
Association, California Groundwater Association, California Narcotics Officers Association, Central
Basin Water Association, Coachella Valley Water District, Desert Water Agency, East Valley Water
District, Friant Water Authority, International Bottled Water Association, Kern County Water Agency,
Kings River Conservation District, Kings River Water Association, Newhall County Water District,
Orchard Dale Water District, Rowland Water District and Valley Ag Water Coalition.
Amendments were sought by key Democratic Senators on behalf of the coalition to limit the
disclosure of well log reports to certain professionals who have the education and expertise to utilize
MEMORANDUM
October 30, 2012
Page 12
the information contained thereon for the purpose of conducting studies. The author rejected the
amendments, arguing that accepting the amendments would guarantee a veto by the Governor. Bob
Reeb quickly contacted DWR staff to ascertain whether such a message had been delivered to the
author; no such message had been delivered. Nevertheless, the author refused to accept
amendments to the bill. That refusal enabled a sufficient number of Democratic Senators to vote "NO"
or abstain from voting and the bill failed passage on the Senate Floor on May 31, with a 19-16 vote.
EVWD an Effective Advocate on Behalf of its Taxpayers and Customers
This completes the fifth year of a commitment on the part of the EVWD Board of Directors to
aggressively pursue advocacy efforts in the State Capitol relying on Reeb Government Relations to
be its voice. Through these efforts, the District has been effective in defeating or amending legislation
that would further burden its ratepayers without benefit to the District.
Despite a challenging economy and the rising costs of providing water and wastewater services, the
District continues to communicate directly with legislators and the executive branch in an ongoing
effort to rein in the propensity to increase the size and scope of state government to the detriment of
local control, particularly in the public utility arena. The environmental community continues to press
for stricter water quality laws and regulations, greater water use efficiency, more restrictions on water
development and use, an increased reliance on renewable energy sources that has driven up the
cost of electricity in California—the list is a long one. East Valley Water District has chosen to push
back against the rising tide of laws and regulations and has inarguably saved its ratepayers millions
of dollars in cost impacts as a result.
Reeb Government Relations was pleased to work this year with District staff and the District's grant
writing consultant in the drafting of a legislative and grant assistance platform. This effort follows on
successful efforts in the past to secure State funding for safe drinking water projects. We have been
successful in securing the support of the District's legislative delegation for past grant and loan
applications, including securing recent letters of support relating to the perchlorate groundwater
treatment project.
We look forward to working with the District on a visit to Sacramento early next year as the new 2 -
year legislative session gets underway. We anticipate meeting with the District's legislative delegation
and other legislators and staff to brief them on important activities that are being undertaken at East
Valley Water District.

SUBJECP: ADOPTION OF THE REGIONAL URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN
RFCOMMENDATION:
it, s the recommendation of staff that the Board of Directors adopt the amended 2010 Regional
Urban Water Management Plan.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS:
California Water Code Section 10610 – 10656 of the Urban Water Management Planning Act
requires that "Urban Water Suppliers' prepare and adopt an Urban Water Management Plan
(UWMP) every five years.
Th.e UWMP is a planning tool that is used to ensure reliable water supplies for our customers
into the future. Specifically, the plan focuses on water reliability that requires each water
ag:,ncy to perform detailed shortage contingency analysis to guarantee that current and future
development does not outpace local water supplies. Additionally, failure to comply with the Act
may also result in a Water Supplier becoming ineligible to receive grant funding from the State
04 California.
In early 2010, the San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (`Valley District') and its
ser,en contracting member agencies, agreed to collaborate and develop a Regional Urban Water
jM.magement Plan (RUWMP). The plan would ultimately encompass the Valley District's
sea vice area, which also includes the East Valley Water District water supplies.
In July 2010 the plan was adopted. The process included creating a single RUWMP that would
address regional water supplies while providing individual agency chapters that essentially
gives each contract member agency their own personalized UWMP.
Th e seven contracting members are:
East Valley Water District
City of Colton
City of Loma Linda
PageII SR#0170
AGENDA DATE: November 14, 2012
SUBJECT: ADOPTION OF THE REGIONAL URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN
• City of Redlands
• San Bernardino Municipal Water Department
• Yucaipa Valley Water District
• West Valley Water District
While it has not been five years since the previous adoption, there have been revisions to the
2010 RUWMP that by law, trigger a process to re -adopt and re -file the plan each time there is a
revision. The revisions can be generally categorized as non -substantive (grammar),
clarifications and a response to the Department of Water Resources comments following their
2011 review.
The Water Code requires that a revised plan be re -adopted and submitted to the California
Department of Water Resources within 30 days of adoption of the amended plan. Because this
was a collaborative regional effort of the seven member agencies and we were required to meet
the 30 -day adoptive period, all seven member agencies agreed to take the RUWMP to their
respective governing bodies in the month of November 2012 for adoption.
STRATEGIC INITIATIVE:
The Urban Water Management Plan supports:
Strategic Initiative I — Provide Safe and Reliable Water Supply
(A) — Meet all regulatory requirements
REVIEW BY OTHERS:
This agenda item has been reviewed by Engineering &t Finance Staff.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This item was budgeted and paid for out the 2010/2011 Fiscal Year Budget.

Chapter 7: East Valley Water District
7.1 Description of Agency
EVWD is a Special District, formed in 1954 through an election by local residents who wanted
water service by a public water agency. Originally called the East San Bernardino County
Water District, the name was changed to East Valley Water District in 1982. The District was
originally formed to provide domestic water service to the then unincorporated and
agriculturally -based communities of Highland and East Highland in southwestern San
Bernardino County. Over the years, some of the EVWD's service area was annexed to the City
of San Bernardino, but water service remained with the District, primarily due to logistics and
cost. In 1987, the City of Highland incorporated. Now, EVWD's previously agriculturally
dominated area is urbanized, and few orange groves remain.
EVWD's current service area encompasses approximately 19,251 acres, or 30.08 square miles,
which includes all of the City of Highland and a portion of the City of Sari Bernardino, as well as
some currently unincorporated areas within San Bernardino County. Figure 7-1 shows the
EVWD service area.
EVWD's water supply consists primarily of groundwater from 20 wells in the western portion of
the service area. These wells, in the SBBA, supply approximately 90 percent of the total water
supply. In addition to groundwater, Plant 134, a 4.0 MGD water treatment plant, provides
surface water from the Santa Ana River and the SWP.
EVWD has a current service population of approximately 63,000 persons. EVWD has prepared
an estimate of future population for 2015 to 2035. A population growth rate for each jurisdiction
being served by EVWD was defined based on the SCAG projected populations for 2008, 2020.
and 2035 contained in the 2012 Integrated Growth Forecast. The percentage of the service
area included in each jurisdiction was determined using geographic information system (GIS)
data. As shown in Table 7-1, the projections for the various jurisdictions in the water service
area (City of Highland, City of San Bernardino, unincorporated County), were weighted by
the percentage of each area within the water service area to derive an overall growth rate. In
addition to this growth rate, EVWD considered the development potential of an area known as
Sunrise Ranch, Sunrise Ranch is one of the most significant areas of potential development
within the District's service area. This area is located east of Greenspot Road in the eastern
most portion of the EVWD service area and consists of approximately 1.900 acres of land that is
zoned as a planned development. For the purposes of these projections, it has been assumed
that Sunrise Ranch could be developed at a density of 5 single-family units per acre. It is
assumed that Sunrise Ranch will result in new population starting in 2020 and be fully built -out
by 2035- Population projections are shown in Table 7-2.

San Bernardino County, including that portion within the EVWD service area, has experienced
many years of steady population growth. Since 2008, the EVWD service area, like most
portions of California, has experienced a dramatic slowing in population growth. However, the
EVWD service area still has great growth potential. The EVWD service area includes a
mauntainous area unlikely to be developed. Of the area conducive to urbanization, it is
estimated that 70 percent of this land has been developed. EVWD currently serves water to an
area encompassing approximately 6,550 acres, it is estimated that there are an additional 6,000
vacant, but developable acres in the service area (EVWD 2008). Currently served parcels
cc,nsist predominantly of single family residential land uses (73 percent), several areas of
significant commercial land use (10 percent) and the remaining 17 percent in other types of land
ue:es. Undeveloped parcels consist primarily of single family residential parcels with one third
acre or larger lot sizes (63 percent), smaller lot single family residential (17 percent),
commercial (7 percent), multi -family residential (4 percent), with the remaining 9 percent in other
types of land uses.
7.2 (Climate
ES,/WD is located on the eastern side of the San Bernardino Valley and within the South Coast
Hydrologic Region. The climate is a modified Mediterranean type, with hot, dry summers and
cool, rainy winters. Average monthly temperature and rainfall recorded by the Western
Regional Climate Center (WRCC) for the San Bernardino Station between 1893 and 2004 are
shown in Table 7-3. Temperatures average 64 degrees Fahrenheit, with summer highs in the
m,cl-90s and winter lows in the upper 30s. Table 7-3 also shows the ETo rate for EVWD's
service area.

estimated that 70 percent of this land has been developed. EVWD currently serves water to an
area encompassing approximately 6,550 acres, it is estimated that there are an additional 6,000
vacant, but developable acres in the service area (EVWD 2008). Currently served parcels
cc,nsist predominantly of single family residential land uses (73 percent), several areas of
significant commercial land use (10 percent) and the remaining 17 percent in other types of land
ue:es. Undeveloped parcels consist primarily of single family residential parcels with one third
acre or larger lot sizes (63 percent), smaller lot single family residential (17 percent),
commercial (7 percent), multi -family residential (4 percent), with the remaining 9 percent in other
types of land uses.
7.2 (Climate
ES,/WD is located on the eastern side of the San Bernardino Valley and within the South Coast
Hydrologic Region. The climate is a modified Mediterranean type, with hot, dry summers and
cool, rainy winters. Average monthly temperature and rainfall recorded by the Western
Regional Climate Center (WRCC) for the San Bernardino Station between 1893 and 2004 are
shown in Table 7-3. Temperatures average 64 degrees Fahrenheit, with summer highs in the
m,cl-90s and winter lows in the upper 30s. Table 7-3 also shows the ETo rate for EVWD's
service area.

7.3 Historical Water Use
7.3.1 Historical Deliveries
EVWD categorizes its water use customers as follows: single family residential, multi -family
residential, commercial, landscape, and "others." The few light industrial and
governmental/institutional users are included within the commercial category. EVWD's
Irrigation/Landscape customers represent approximately two percent of the current metered
services and eight (8) percent of the consumptive water use. These customers include parks,
large commercial, community and institutional landscape areas, and schools. The land use
development trend within the EVWD's service area has historically been from agriculture to
residential. In 2000, 86 percent of accounts were residential, growing to 93 percent in 2009. A
continuing increase in residential customers is expected. While there are agricultural uses in
the EVWD service area, these users do not receive water from EVWD. Actual water deliveries
in 2005 and 2009 are provided in Tables 7-4 and 7-5.

7.3.2 Historic Sales
Historically, EVWD obtained a small portion of water through an exchange with SBMWD. The
purpose of the exchange was to get water with low nitrates suitable for blending and treatment
at EVWD's Plant 107. In exchange for the water received, EVWD provided two and a half times
the amount received back to SBMWD to account for energy difference in cost. Due to

operational difficulties with receiving water from SBMWD the exchange was ended, effective
October 18, 2007. EVWD's historic water sales are summarized in Table 7-6.

7.3.3 Historical Other Water Uses
In the past, EVWD has not had water use related to saline barriers, groundwater recharge
operations, or recycled water. However, EVWD, like many water agencies, does have some
unaccounted-for water. Unaccounted-for water is the difference between the amount of water
produced and the amount of water billed to customers. Over the last five years unaccounted for
water has been approximately seven to eight percent of produced water within EVWD's system
(system loss was determined by comparing overall production to overall sales for 2004 to 2009).
Sources of unaccounted-for water include:
• Hydrant Testing and Flushing - Hydrant testing is performed by both EVWD and the Fire
Departments. EVWD and the Fire Departments perform a comprehensive testing
program to monitor the level of fire flows available throughout the service area.
• Fire Hydrant Operations by the Fire Department - This represents the use of water for
emergencies.
• Customer Meter Inaccuracies - Customer meters represent one of the main sources of
unaccounted-for water as they tend to under -represent actual consumption in the water
system. EVWD has a replacement program to replace malfunctioning meters and a
systematic program to replace metered on a 10 -year basis.
Reservoir overflows - This represents unrecorded water use when reservoirs overflow.
• Leaks from water lines - Leakage from water pipes is a common occurrence in water
systems. A significant number of leaks remain undetected over long periods of time as
they are very small, however these small leaks contribute to the overall unaccounted-for
water.
Table 7-7 summarizes what the California Department of Water Resources refers to as "other'
water uses, besides metered deliveries and sales to other agencies.

7.4 Existing and Targeted Per Capita Water Use
The Water Conservation Bill of 2009 (SBX7-7) is one of four policy bills enacted as part of the
November 2009 Comprehensive Water Package (Special Session Policy Bills and Bond
Summary) The Water Conservation Bill of 2009 provides the regulatory framework to support
the statewide reduction in urban per capita water use described in the 20 by 2020 Water
Conservation Plan. Consistent with SBX7-7, each water supplier must determine and report its
existing baseline water consumption and establish future water use targets in gallons per capita
per day (GPCD), reporting is to begin with the 2010 UWMP.
The two primary calculations required by SBX7-7 are:
1 Base Daily Water Use calculation (average GPCD used in past years)
2. Compliance Water Use Target (target GPCD in 2015 and 2020)
Page 7-8 Chapter 7: East Valley Water District
01 9roled1N101099014 Da iwmvrtl LOW,l09 09 fiwluwmpruwmp 12691290591m1 umnu we
The Base Daily Water Use calculation is based on gross water use by an agency in each year
and can be based on a ten-year average ending no earlier than 2004 and no later than 2010 or
a 15 -year average if ten percent of 2008 demand was met by recycled water. Base Daily Water
Use must account for all water sent to retail customers, excluding:
Recycled water
• Water sent to another water agency
• Water that went into storage
It is at an agency's discretion whether or not to exclude agricultural water use from the Base
Daily Water Calculation. If agricultural water use is excluded from the Base Daily Water use
calculation it must also be excluded from the calculation from actual wal.er use in later Urban
Water Management Plans. EVWD does not specifically account for agricultural water use in its
service area. Any incidental agricultural water use is included in the Base Daily Waster use
Calculation.
An urban retail water supplier must set a 2020 water use target (herein called the Compliance
Water Use Target) and a 2015 interim target (herein called the Interim Water Use Target).
There are four methods for calculating the Compliance Water Use Target:
1 Eighty percent of the urban water supplier's baseline per capita daily water use
2 Per capita daily water use estimated using the sum of the following:
a. For indoor residential water use, 55 gallons per capita daily water use as a
provisional standard. Upon completion of DWR's 2016 report to the Legislature
reviewing progress toward achieving the statewide 20 percent reduction target,
this standard may be adjusted by the Legislature by statute.
b. For landscape irrigated through dedicated or residential meters or connections,
water use efficiency equivalent to the standards of the Model Water Efficient
Landscape Ordinance set forth in Section 490 et seq. of Title 23 of the California
Code of Regulations, as in effect the later of the year of the landscape's
installation or 1992.
c. For commercial, industrial, and institutional (CII) uses, a ten percent reduction in
water use from the baseline CII water use by 2020.
Ninety-five percent of the applicable state hydrologic region target as stated in the
state's April 30, 2009, draft 20 by 2020 Water Conservation Plan EVWD falls within the
South Coast Hydrologic Region; the region target is 142 GPCD. The South Coast
region encompasses several coastal counties (Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, and San
Diego) and also includes portions of inland areas such as San Bernardino and Riverside
This target is more appropriate for coastal, rather than inland, areas.
Reduce the 10 or 15 -year Base Daily Per Capita Water Use a specific amount for
different water sectors:
Indoor residential water use to be reduced by 15 GPCD or an amount
determined by use of DWR's "13MP Calculator".

, , I 1d0l i2 unnm .I'nn dI'0,-iep,,IRoO -r,typoshnai., I, w', V[JL.psX I I, ,l wood,,
b. A 20 percent savings on all unmetered uses.
r,. A 10 percent savings on baseline CII use.
J. A 21.6 percent savings on current landscape and water loss uses.
Th Interim Water Use Target is set as a halfway point between the Base Daily Water Use
GPCD and the 2020 Compliance Water Use Target GPCD.
Finally, the selected Compliance Water Use Target must be compared against what DWR calls
the "Maximum Allowable GPCD". The Maximum Allowable GPCD is based on 95 percent of a
5 -year average base gross water use ending no earlier than 2003 and no later than 2010- The
Maximum Allowable GPCD use is used to determine whether a supplier's 2015 and 2020 per
capita water use targets meet the minimum water use reduction of the SBX7-7 (legislation. If an
agency's Compliance Water Use Target is higher than the Maximum Allowable GPCD, the
agency must instead use the Maximum Allowable GPCD as their target.
7.4.1 Base Daily Per Capita Water Use
Fig,ire 7-1 illustrates both the overall EVWD service area and the portion of the service area
cucently served. For the purposes of this SBX7-7 calculation, the part of the service area
designated as "Area Served" in Figure 7-1 is the distribution area used to estimate the Base
Daily Per Capita Water Use. Tables 7-9 through 7-11 summarize the Base Daily Water Use
calculation for EVWD. The period 1999 to 2008 has been selected for calculation of the 10 -year
base period while the period 2004 to 2008 has been selected for calculation of the 5 -year base
per od. The 10 -year average Base Daily Per Capita Water Use for EVWD is 342 GPCD; the
5-vear is 334 GPCD.

Note.
(a) EVWD's service area population estimated using the "Alternative Methodology for Service Area Population" as
described in Appendix A of the Methodologies for Calculating Baseline and Compliance per Capita Urban Water
Use (DWR 2010).
In order to calculate Base Daily Per Capita Water Use for past years, it was necessary to
develop population estimates for past years. EVWD's service area population for the period
1994 to 2009 was estimated using the "Alternative Methodology for Service Area Population" as
described in Appendix A of the Methodologies for Calculating Baseline and Compliance per
Capita Urban Water Use (DWR 2010). First, the census blocks in the EVWD service area were
identified using GIS software. Then, Census 2000 data was used to develop estimates of
population residing in single-family structures and population residing in multi -family structures
and this was used to estimate population per connection ratios for year 2000 The persons per
connection ratios are as follows:
• 3.00 persons per single family household
2.42 persons per multi -family household
Persons per connection was then multiplied by connections data for 2001 to 2009 to estimate
population in those years.
Table 7-11 provides the data on the Maximum Allowable GPCD. The Maximum Allowable
GPCD is based on 95 percent of the 5 -year average base gross water use. In this case 95
percent of the 5 -year GPCD is 317 GPCD (95% of 334).

7.4.2 Compliance Water Use Targets
In addition to calculating base gross water use, SBX7-7 requires that a retail water supplier
ide ltify its demand reduction targets. The methodologies for calculating demand reduction
targets were described above. EVWD is choosing to meet SBX7-7 targets as an individual
agency rather than as part of a regional alliance. EVWD has selected Method 4 to calculate its
20:0 Compliance Water Use Target and Interim Water Use Target.
Compliance Water Use Target under Method 4 is Base Daily GPCD less:
• Indoor residential water savings of 15 GPCD or an amount determined by use of DWR's
"BMP Calculator"
20 percent savings on all unmetered uses
• 10 percent savings on Baseline CII (expressed in GPCD)
• 21.6 percent savings on current landscape and water loss uses (expressed as GPCD)
E V'ND is choosing to use the default value of 15 GPCD for the indoor residential water savings.
EV'ND has no unmetered uses. As shown in Table '7-12, baseline CII water use was estimated
using the 10 -year average of water sales to CII water uses in the EVWD service area for the
years 1999 to 2008 (the same period as was used to calculate the Base Daily Per Capita Water
Use). Baseline CII water use is 74 GPCD.
DWR has provided the following formula for calculating landscape and water loss uses:
= Base Daily Per Capita Water Use - Default Indoor Water Use (70 GPCD) - Baseline Cll
Based on this formula, EVWD's landscape and water loss use is:
342 GPCD - 70 GPCD - 74 GPCD = 198 GPCD

The resulting Compliance Water Use Target is 277 GPCD, the full calculation is demonstrated
in Table 7-13. The 2015 Interim Water Use Target is 309 GPCD, the halfway point between
current and the 2020 target.

As described earlier, the Maximum Allowable GPCD is 317. The Compliance Water Use
Target, under Method 4 (277 GPCD) is less than the Maximum Allowable GPCD, so no
adjustments to the Compliance Water Use Target are necessary. In order to meet the water
use targets prescribed by SBX7-7, EVWD will have to reduce current water use by
approximately 10 percent by 2015 and by approximately 20 percent by 2020. The programs
which EVWD intends to use to achieve these conservation goals are described in Section 7 7 3,

7.5 Projected Water Use
7.5.1 EVWD Projections
Based on the SCAG population projections for 2008, 2020, and 2035 contained in their 2012
Int. grated Growth Forecast, EVWD derived a population growth rate for each jurisdiction served
by EVWD. The percentage of the service area included in each jurisdiction was determined
using GIS. As shown in Tables 7-1 and 7-2, the projections for the various jurisdictions in the
water service area (City of Highland, City of San Bernardino, unincorporated County), were
weighted by the percentage of each area within the water service area to derive an overall
growth rate. This growth rate was applied to SCAG s base year (2008) water demands to
derive estimates of water demands as shown in Tattles 7-14 to 7-16.

7.5.2 Projected Sales and Other Water Uses
EVWD does not anticipate any regular or single large sales to other agencies in the future. As
in the past, EVWD does not anticipate future water use related to saline barriers, groundwater
recharge operations, or recycled water. For the purpose of projections, unaccounted-for water
is assumed to be eight percent, this is conservative for planning purposes. EVWD will continue
efforts to decrease water loss and thereby reduce gallons per capita per day water use.

7.5.4 Water Use Projections for Lower Income Households
Senate Bill 1087 requires that water use projections of an UWMP include the projected water
USE for single-family and multi -family residential housing for lower income households as
ide itified in the housing element of any city, county, or city and county in the service area of the
supplier. The EVWD contains three jurisdictions, the City of Highland, the City of San
BElnardlno, and unincorporated County of San Bernardino.
ThE! City of Highland updated its housing element in January 2011. Highland estimates that
app roximately 40 percent of its households qualify as very -low or low-income. The City of San
Bernardino is in the process of updating its housing element, a draft housing element is
available for public review. The City estimates that more than half of its households
(61 percent) qualify as very low or low-income. The County of San Bernardino updated its
housing element in May 2007. The Housing Element provides information on regional housing
needs and states goals for new housing to accommodate very -low and low-income households,

these households make up approximately 42 percent of all households in the unincorporated
county
Based on the percentages of Highland, San Bernardino, and the unincorporated County that
comprise the EVWD service area (see Table 7-1), it is estimated that approximately 45 percent
of households in EVWD qualify as very -low or low-income. Using this percentage, Table 7-19
shows an estimate of future low-income water demands. These demands are included within
the water demands described in Table 7-18 and assume conservation.

Note.
(a) Assumes 45% all future households in EWdD water service area qualify as "very -low" or "low" Income per
the definition provided in Senate Bill 1087. Assumes conservation.
Further, EVWD will not deny or put unreasonable conditions for water services, or reduce the
amount of services applied for by a proposed development that includes housing units
affordable to lower income households unless one of the following occurs:
• EVWD specifically finds that it does not have sufficient water supply
• EVWD is subject to a compliance order issued by the State Department of Public Health
that prohibits new water connections
• the applicant has failed to agree to reasonable terms and conditions relating to the
provision of services
The conditions above apply to all applicants and developers.
7.6 Other Factors Affecting Water Usage
Two major factors that affect water usage are weather and water conservation. Historically,
when the weather is hot and dry, water use increases. The amount of increase varies according
to the number of consecutive years of hot, dry weather and the conservation activities imposed.
During cool and wet years, historical water usage decreases to reflect less water usage for
exterior landscaping. Both weather effects and conservation effects are discussed below.
7.6.1 Weather Effects on Water Usage
As described in Section 7.2, EVWD experiences cool winters and dry hot summers. In 2009,
during the winter months (November, December, January) EVWD customers used only about
246 GPCD, while in the summer months customers used about 386 GPC)D. This variation gives
some indication about how weather affects water demands in the EVWD service area. Past
Chapter 7: East Valley Water District Page 7-17
.a.�uwr,inx_n,1 r.- 1-.", iaowa n�rn„i rao�
studies have indicated that demands increase 6 to 12 percent during dry periods. For this
analysis it is estimated that demands will increase ten percent during dry periods.
7.7 Demand Management Measures
In recent years, water conservation has become an increasingly important factor in water supply
planning in California. DMMs are programs and activities through which a water supplier can
communicate with their customers and encourage, regulate or incentivize water conservation.
The: Urban Water Management Planning Act identities 14 DMMs that are to be evaluated in
each UWMP. Within this document, DMMs and BMPs are used interchangeab6y. Although
EVWD is not a signatory to the CUWCC Memorandum of Understanding Regarding Urban
Weter Conservation in California, the UWMP Act requires compliance with DMMs. The UWMP
Arl requires different information for DMMs that have been implemented or are scheduled for
nnplementation and DMMS not implemented or not scheduled for implementation
7.7.1.1 Information Required for DMMs Implemented or Scheduled for Implementation
Foi those DMMs being implemented or scheduled to be implemented within the next five years,
the following information is required by Water Code Section 10631(f):
• Description of the DMM
A description of the steps necessary to implement the measure
An implementation schedule
• Estimate, if available, of conservation savings and the effect of the savings on the
suppliers' ability to further reduce demand.
Methods to evaluate DMM effectiveness and estimates of potential conservation savings are
detailed in Appendix F. EVWD is now expanding its conservation programs and currently the
potential for demand hardening is considered to be very low. However, as conservation devices
and practices are more widely adopted in the service area, EVWD will evaluate the potential for
demand hardening.
7.7.1.2 Information Required for DMMs Not Implemented or Scheduled for
Implementation
Fo those DMMs not implemented or not scheduled to be implemented within the next five
years, the following information is required by Water Code Section 10631(g)
Economic Land noneconomic factors, including environmental, social, health, customer
impact, and technological factors
A cost -benefit analysis, identifying total benefits and total costs
• A description of funding available to implement any planned water supply project that
would provide water at a higher unit cost

• A description of the water supplier's legal authority to implement the measure and efforts
to work with other relevant agencies to ensure the implementation of the measure and to
share the cost of implementation
7.7.2 DMMs Currently Being Implemented or Scheduled for
Implementation
This section describes DMMs currently being implemented or scheduled for implementation by
EVWD.
7.7.2.1 Conservation Coordinator
To be in compliance with this DMM, EVWD must designate a water conservation coordinator.
EVWD has a staff person designated as the Conservation Coordinator. EVWD also uses a
consultant to manage its public outreach activities and staff to manage other aspects of water
conservation. There are no available estimates on the conservation savings resulting from the
DMM or the effects of this DMM on EVWD's ability to further reduce demand.
7.7.2.2 Water Waste Prevention
To be in compliance with this DMM, a water agency must do one or more of the following.
• Enact and enforce an ordinance or establish terms of service that: prohibit water waste
(single pass cooling, vehicle washing, commercial laundry systems and decorative
fountains).
• Enact and enforce an ordinance or establish terms of service for water efficient design in
new development (irrigation and landscape design).
• Support legislation or regulations that prohibit water waste.
• Enact an ordinance or establish terms of service to facilitate implementation of water
shortage response measures.
• Support local ordinances that prohibit water waste.
• Support local ordinances that establish permits requirements for water efficient design in
new development.
EVWD has a water shortage contingency plan that identifies the level of shortage, prohibitions
and associated consumption reduction, penafiies and charges. The Water Shortage
Contingency Plan was again addressed in Ordinance 375, adopted in 2010, which prohibits
gutter flooding, non -recirculating fountains, customer plumbing leaks, hosing of hard surfaces,
and automatic water serving in restaurants during times of stage 2 and 3 water shortages
(Ordinance 375 is included in Appendix F). District Ordinance No 375 meets five of this DMM's
elements- There are no available estimates on the conservation savings resulting from this
DMM or the effects of this DMM on EVWD's ability to further reduce demand.

7.7.2.3 Water Loss Control
Iriplementation of this DMM consists of performing a water loss audit consistent with AWWA
Manual 36 to quantify real and apparent losses. In addition, a water agency must also analyze
the components of real and apparent loss, determine the economic value of recovering water
Iess, and develop a strategy to reduce loss to the extent actions are cost effective.
F�1WD is in the process of implementing this DMM. EVWD has an active water loss control
program and has performed a water loss audit using the AWWA Manual 36 for FY 2010, The
results of the audit indicate that EVWD has an Infrastructure Leakage Indicator of 2.49 with a
confidence score of 77. In the near term EVWD will focus on refining its information and
identifying categories of real losses. In addition, E1,/WD will continue its leak detection and
water main replacement program.
the AWVVA water audit methodology will be performed annually and losses carefully monitored.
Continued implementation of water loss control practices and procedures is not anticipated to
have an effect on EVWD's ability to further reduce demand.
7.7.2.4 Metering with Commodity Rates for All New Connections and Retrofit of
Existing Connections
This DMM requires meters for all new service connections, establishing a program for retrofit of
exiting but unmetered connections, and billing customers by volume of use. This DMM also
requires that a water agency have a meter maintenance and replacement plan. All of EVWD's
customers are metered as are all new connections. EVWD has a meter maintenance and
replacement plan. All meters are replaced on a 10 year rolling cycle or when no longer
functioning
7.7.2.5 Retail Conservation Pricing
There are multiple aspects related to compliance with this DMM. This DMM requires a
vo umetric rate structure, which can be uniform, tiered, allocation -based or seasonal rates as
long as the volumetric portion meets minimum levels as defined (70 percent of the rate must be
va fable/volumetric, as opposed to fixed charges).
FVWD is in compliance with this DMM. The volumetric portion of EVWD's water revenue
ao::ounts for about 77 percent of total. For sewer, commercial customers are billed
vo umetrically and residential customers are billed a flat rate. However EVWD only performs
the collection services while treatment is the purview of the San Bernardino Municipal Water
Department. Typically it is the treatment costs that are more sensitive to volume. Furthermore,
in charging the commercial and residential different structures, EVWD is mimicking San
Bernardino Municipal Water Department's sewer treatment rate structure.
7.7.2.6 Public Information Programs
The intent of this DMM is to have customer contact through events, paid and public service
advertising, mailers, billings as well as social marketing and other public information programs.
To be in full compliance a water agency must have quarterly contact with the public and media,
an actively maintained website, and a list of all activities.

EVWD is implementing this DMM. EVWD retains an outside consultant for its public outreach
program, provides tours, information packets with conservation information to new customers,
and has published an annual newsletter since 1994 reporting current issues. Additional tours
and presentations are given upon request. In addition to published materials, EVWD provides a
link on their website to the State of California's water conservation website.
There are no available estimates on the conservation savings resulting from this DMM.
However, it is not anticipated that any savings resulting from this DMM affect EVWD's ability to
further reduce demand.
7.7.2.7 School Education Programs
To be in compliance with this DMM, a water agency must have a conservation -related school
education program and must provide support and educational materials to local school districts.
EVWD will implement this DMM at compliance levels. EVWD's program consists of a Water
Awareness Month which involves an elementary school art contest that is published in a
Conservation Calendar. In addition, occasional school presentations are given upon request.
There are no available estimates on the conservation savings resulting from this DMM.
However, it is not anticipated that any savings resulting from this DMM affect EVWD's ability to
further reduce demand.
7.7.2.8 Water Sense Specification for Residential Development
This DMM encourages replacement of old plumbing fixtures with plumbing fixtures with Water
Sense Specification' (WSS) fixtures. To be in compliance with this DMNI a water agency must
provide incentives such as rebates, recognition programs, reduced connection fees, or have
ordinances requiring residential construction sleeting WSS for single and multi -family housing.
These incentives are to be offered until the California universal retrofit on resale statute" goes
into effect (year 2014) or until all new residential construction meets WSS standards.
EVWD does not have direct regulatory jurisdiction to develop local ordinances but will support
local jurisdictions in implementing and promoting codes that support efficiency. EVWD will, in
coordination with the land use jurisdictions, participate in implementation of the 2010 CAL
Green Code which was adopted by the Building Standards Commission in January 2010 and
went into effect January 2011. The Code sets mandatory green building measures, including a
20 percent reduction in indoor water use, as well as dedicated meter requirements and
regulations addressing landscape irrigation and design; the Code also identifies voluntary
measures that set a higher standard of efficiency, which can also be adopted.
WaterSense is an Environmental Protection Agency sponsored program that promotes water -efficient
products, programs, and practices. In order to carry the WSS label a product must be independently
certified as using 20 percent less water than average products in that category.
Effective January 11 2014, Senate Bill 407 requires that all pre -1994 residential, multi -family and
commercial customers replace non-compliant plumbing fixtures (including toilets, faucets, and shower
heads) with water -conserving fixtures when making certain improvements or alterations to a building.
By 2017, all single family homes must replace non-compliant plumbing fixtures, and by 2019, all
multifamily and commercial buildings must have compliant water -conserving plumbing fixtures in place.
Chapter 7- East Valley Water District Page 7-21

It is anticipated that indoor water use in WSS homes will be 20 percent lower than in older
homes that do not have WSS plumbing fixtures. The amount of water savings however, will
depend on the extent of future residential development.
7,7.2.9 Commercial, Industrial, and Institutional (CII)
To be in compliance with this DMM an agency must reduce CII water use by 10 percent of the
baseline over a 10 -year period. Implementation can be achieved through one or both of the
following ways:
Implementing measures on the CUWCC CII list with well-documented savings. These
measures target commercial water use that include: toilets, urinals, clothes washers,
cooling towers, food steamers, ice machines, steam sterilizers, water brooms and dry
vacuum pumps.
• Implementing unique conservation measures whose water savings are calculated on a
case-by-case basis. Sample measures include: industrial process water use reduction,
industrial laundry retrofits, car wash recycling systems, water -efficient commercial
dishwashers, and wet cleaning.
About 27 percent of EVWD's water is used by commercial customers. To be in compliance with
the DMM, 17VWD needs to reduce CII use by 67 AF`( for 10 years, or 670 AF by 2020.
EV`ND provides recommendations for identifying and addressing leaks for customers with high
bill romplaints but otherwise has no formal programs established. EVWD has examined the
cost effectiveness from a mix of CII programs recommended by the CUWCC (Table 7-20).
These include both indoor and landscape program options because both can be used to meet
the 10 percent reduction requirements. The results indicate there are some programs that are
clearly cost-effective such as WBIC and washer rebates, other programs like Cl I surveys and
noz,,le distribution are not.
EMD has hired a consultant to prepare a strategy for reducing water use by CII customers.
EVV✓D anticipates that it will implement those CII programs that are cost-effective, no later than
December 2012.
A comparison of the year to year trend of water use by CII customers will be used to evaluate
the :effectiveness of this DMM. EVWD has ranked its top CII customers and will be prioritizing
(hese customers for program participation. EVWD is currently working on developing a
nar,,eting plan and approach. Program participation will be tracked through the billing system.

7.7.3 Evaluation of DMMS Not Implemented
This section describes DMMs not being implemented or not being implemented at compliance
levels. For each DMM not being implemented, an explanation and cost-effectiveness analysis
is provided. For the purpose of calculating the cost-effectiveness of DMMs, EVWD's avoided
cost of water (the cost of acquiring another unit of water) is estimated as $274 per AF.
7.7.3.1 Residential Assistance Program and Landscape Water Surveys
Implementation of this DMM consists of providing leak detection assistance and landscape
water surveys to an average of 1.5 percent of single family and 1.5 percent of multi -family units
per year for 10 years. Once that target is met, this DMM requires that a water agency maintain
a program whereby surveys are performed in response to high -bill complaints or surveys are
performed for at least 0.75 percent of single-family and multi -family units each year.
EVWD is not implementing either the Residential Assistance Program DliAM or the Landscape
Water Survey DMM as neither of these programs is cost-effective The cost-effectiveness
analysis for these programs was combined, because from a programmatic perspective, they
would likely be implemented together as a single indoor and outdoor audit. To be in compliance
with the DMM, EVWD would need to complete 306 single family and 20 multi -family (indoor
only) audits. Implementing and managing a program that would meet these requirements would

7.7.3.2 High -Efficiency Clothes Washers (HECWs)
The intent of this DMM is to encourage replacement of old clothes washers with HECWs using
financial incentives. Qualifying HECWs must meet an average water factor value of 5.0 or the
WaterSense Specification, whichever is lower. The annual target is one percent of current
single-family accounts or 1.4 percent per year of the market penetration during the first ten
years of the program
EVND is not implementing a HECW rebate program and is filing a cost-effectiveness
exemption. To be in compliance with the DMM, EVVVD would need to provide 204 rebates.
Implementing and managing a program that would meet these requirements would cost the
District about $546 per AF of water saved, a benefit to cost ratio of 0.41 (Table 7-22). Details

EVWD is not implementing a WSS toilet rebate program and is filing a cost-effectiveness
exemption. To be in compliance with the DMM, EVWD would need to provide 440 single family
and 28 multi -family rebates. Implementing and managing a program that would meet these
requirements would cost $330 and $260 per AF of water saved, a benefit to cost ratio of 0.6 and
0.8 for single family and multi -family respectively (Tables 7-23 and 7-24 below). Details on the

10 years (CII surveys that include both indoor and outdoor components can be credited
against coverage requirements for both the Landscape and CII DMMs).
• Providing an incentive program for irrigation equipment retrofits.
• Provide notices each billing cycle with water use budgets.
• Accounts without Meters or with Mixed -Use Meters:
• Develop and implement a strategy for marketing surveys.
• Offer financial incentives.
EVWD is not implementing the Landscape DMM and is filing a cost-effectiveness exemption.
To meet the requirements of the Large Landscape DMM, EVWD would have to conduct about
21 surveys per year. The cost-effectiveness evaluation indicates that the large landscape
surveys would not be cost-effective, with a benefit to cost ratio of 0.95 (Table 7-25).

7.7.4 DMM Implementation and Urban Water Use Targets of the
20x2020 Plan
As dart of the IRWMP and UWMP process, agencies in the San Bernardino Valley area have
formed a group to study and address conservation needs in the San Bernardino Valley. The
first step in this process was identifying the costs and benefits of various demand management
measures Special attention was given to those demand management measures that are not
cost effective for an individual agency, but which could be cost effective if implemented as part
of a regional collaboration. The following demand management measures were identified as
potentially cost effective if costs could be shared among multiple entities:

• High Efficiency Clothes Washers Rebates
• Water Sense Specification Toilet Rebates
• Support and incentives to non-residential customers to improve landscape water use
efficiency
• Targeted programs at large CII customers
The second step in the process was to identify the water conservation target, which was done
as part of this UWMP. At the conclusion of Steps 1 and 2, the agencies participating in this
UWMP met to coordinate regional implementation of selected conservation actions. The group
intends to engage a Regional Conservation Coordinator. In addition to the programs listed
above, the Regional Conservation Coordinator would lead public outreach programs and school
education programs. The UWMP agencies, along with the Regional Conservation Coordinator
will evaluate existing agency resources available to assist with conservation programs and then
select conservation programs and processes to be implemented at the regional level. The
UWMP agencies will utilize the Regional Conservation Coordinator to track conservation
actions, conservation successes, and estimate water savings. The group anticipates having a
regional water conservation strategy developed by the end of 2011 and start implementation in
2012.
EVWD will continue with its existing conservation programs, will participate in the region -wide
conservation programs, and will work with its land use partners to implement both the
Landscape Model Ordinance and 2010 California Green Building Standards Code.
As part of its annual reporting of public water system statistics to the California Department of
Public Health, EVWD will evaluate progress toward reducing water use in terms of gallons per
capita per day.
7.8 Water Resources
Chapter 2 of this UWMP provides a description of imported water supplies and groundwater
supplies available in the San Bernardino Valley. Chapter 2 also provides a description of supply
reliability for imported water and groundwater. The paragraphs below provide information on
the current and projected use of these supplies by EVWD.
EVWD utilizes a mix of groundwater, local surface water, and a small amount of imported water.
Since 2005 groundwater has made up 85 to 89 percent of EVWD's supp@y in any given year.
Surface water from the Santa Ana River has made up the next largest share of EVWD's supply
portfolio, in any year comprising between 9 to 15 percent. Imported water, purchased from
Valley District, is a minor supply, no more than 3 percent in any year.
7.8.1 Imported Water Supplies
Imported water available to EVWD is SWP purchased from Valley District. A description of this
supply and its reliability is provided in Chapter 2. EVWD currently supplements its local supply
with SWP deliveries from Valley District and in the past this SWP has made up a small amount
Chapter 7. East Valley Water District Page 7-27
.oaow1::wI'll 'l—. ni .vCrt 011 .i 1eMumm w nm v mcc F. n luanptloc
of F JWD's water supply. EVWD anticipates seeking regular SWP supplies to supplement
Santa Ana River water to run Surface Water Treatment Plant 134, Plant 134 was designed to
frea Santa Ana River water and SWP and was completed in 1996. Since its construction, the
plant has averaged approximately 2,700 AFY in production. Plant 134 has a nameplate
rapacity of 4 MGD, but production has been approximately only 60 percent of its annual
capacity due to a number of issues related to reduced winter time demand and scheduled
mairdenance. EVWD is planning to replace the existing filters and expand the plant to 8.0 MGD
icy installing microfiltration treatment. The expansion will not only add capacity, but the plant
reliability is anticipated to be much higher. This expansion will allow EVWD to increase its use
of SWP The estimated amount of imported water supply shown in Table 7-26 has been
estimated by EVWD and provided to Valley District. Table 7-26 represents the supplies which
.are nticipated to be available to EVWD in a normal year. Table 7-26 does not represent how
much water EVWD may actually need or use in a given year.

Notes
(a) This table represents the supplies anticipated to be available to EVWD, not necessarily the amount of a given
supply that will be utilized by EVWD.
(b) East Valley Water District Water Master Plan 2008.
7.8.1.1 Imported Supply Reliability
SWP deliveries available to EVWD in a normal year are provided in Table 7-26. During times of
State-wide drought conditions, the availability of SWP may be reduced. These conditions are
-iorrnally known in advance, providing EVWD with the opportunity to plan for the reduced
supply. During a drought period, it is Valley District's priority to make direct deliveries to the
water treatment plants operated by Redlands, WVWD, YVWD, SBMWD, and EVWD and to
maintain lake levels at Big Bear Lake (Big Bear Lake water also feeds the water treatment
olarts of Redlands and EVWD). Because EVWD's water treatment plant can use local surface
water and imported water, during a single -dry year EVWD may elect to take a small amount of
imparted water, making more imported water available to other agencies. In this case, EVWD
would utilize additional groundwater through groundwater well production from the SBBA. In a
multiple dry year Valley District expects between 44,858 AF and 45,910 AF of water to be
ava table, meaning Valley District could fulfill normal direct deliveries to water treatment plants in
a multiple -dry year, including the EVWD treatment plant.
Table 7-27 estimates how imported water supplies available to EVWD may be reduced during
drought conditions.

7.8.2 Groundwater
Over the last five years, EVWD has drawn approximately 85 percent of its water supply from
wells located within the San Bernardino Basin Area. Currently, 20 wells provide a rated
capacity of 25,900 GPM. Historic groundwater production by EVWD is shown in Table 7-28.
Anticipated groundwater production, from the SBBA for future years is detailed in Table 7-29.

7.8.2.1 Groundwater Supply Reliability
Some of the EVWD's wells are impacted by nitrate, perchlorate, fluoride, uranium, and/or VOCs.
EVWD has suspended operation at two wells, Wells 12A and 146A. As described below,
EVWD has plans in place that will allow these wells to come back on-line. EVWD continues to
monitor groundwater contamination and the movement of groundwater contaminant plumes. In
response to water quality concerns EVWD has altered operations at other wells to compensate
for the reduced capacity and the following actions have been put into place to protect EVWD
supply
• A wellhead treatment facility has been implemented to treat VOCs from Well 28A using
granulated activated carbon.
Chapter 7: East Valley Water District Page 7-29

A wellhead treatment facility has been implemented to treat nitrate and uranium from
Well 40A using ion exchange.
At Plant 27 and Plant 107, wellhead nitrate and perchlorate treatment facility has been
Put into operation.
A centralized treatment plant is under construction at Plant 150 to treat perchlorate from
a blend of wells in the southwestern part of the service area including Wells 11A, 12A,
and 28A as well as future wells. This plant is scheduled for completion in 2012.
EVWD blends water from Well 39 to deal with high fluoride levels.
EVWD continues to monitor for nitrates in wells 25A, 28A, and 9.
. EVWD plans to blend Wells 147, 146A, 146, and 143 to reduce uranium in Well 146A.
These past and ongoing groundwater treatment projects have demonstrated that treatment is an
ecoriomically viable alternative for handling volatile organic compounds, perchlorate, nitrates,
and uranium, To manage the long-term potential for continued groundwater contamination,
EVWD has an on-going land acquisition program. EVWD has vacant land available for future
facilities. Sites are selected for the development of new wells based on knowledge of the
plumes' movement, land availability and engineering feasibility.
Based on current conditions water quality is not anticipated to affect EVWD supply reliability.
However, water quality issues are constantly evolving. EVWD will take action to protect and
treat supplies when needed, but it is well recognized water quality treatment can have
significant costs.
As described in Chapter 2, the SBBA is adjudicated on a safe yield basis. EVWD therefore has
the opportunity to develop additional wells and over -extract groundwater under specified
conditions contained in the stipulated judgment. The wells in general have provided a stable
source of water supply, Past records show that EVWD has not removed any well from its
supply source during drought conditions, although, some wells had to be lowered to continue
extraction of groundwater. During 1990, the driest year on record for the Southern California,
EVWD was impacted only by lowered groundwater levels and increased pumping costs. EVWD
maintained full capability to use all wells within its system. As described in Chapter 2, extensive
mo,leling has been used to examine groundwater recharge, groundwater pumping, basin
storage, groundwater flow, and groundwater plume location and plume migration. Based on
these studies it is anticipated that groundwater pumping by EVWD and other SBBA users in the
Valley District service area will not be reduced or curtailed during a single -dry or multi -dry year.

7.8.3 Local Surface Water Supplies
EVWD has current water rights of 4 MGD (4,500 AFY) of Santa Ana River water through stock
ownership in the North Fork Mutual Water Company. EVWD is currently the major shareholder
in the company and continues to pursue the purchase of additional stock. EVWD has the ability
to expand to about 6.5 MGD (7,300 AFY) with the conversion of remaining agricultural
properties and water shares of stock. This is expected to occur by 2015.

7.8.3.1 Local Surface Water Reliability
Currently, no water quality issues have been identified that affect EVWD's surface water
supplies from the Santa Ana River. However, water quality issues are constantly evolving.
EVWD will take action to protect and treat the supply when needed, but it is well recognized
water quality treatment can have significant costs.
Supplies from the Santa Ana River are affected by seasonal and annual variations. Records
from multiple precipitation gauges were reviewed and in the Santa Ana Watershed were
reviewed (EVWD 2005). Year 2003 was selected as the year in the historical sequence that
most closely represents median runoff levels and patterns. From the same data, year 2002 was
selected as the single -dry year, this year had only 25 percent of normal precipitation. Years
2000 through 2002 were the selected as the period for the multiple -dry period. This three year
period had the lowest average runoff for a consecutive multiple year period. Anticipated local
surface supplies are detailed in Table 7-32.

7.8.4 Recycled Water
EVWD provides sewage collection service to its customers. Wastewater treatment is provided
by a regional wastewater treatment plant, located downstream and outside of EVWD's sphere of
nfhence. A Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) was formed in 1957 between EVWD and the
neighboring City of San Bernardino whereby the City treats all sewage generated within the
EVWD service area. Consequently, EVWD is not responsible for the disposal of treated
wa;tewater and cannot implement a Water Reclamation Plan.
Wastewater from the EVWD service area is treated to secondary levels at the San Bernardino
Re;lional Wastewater Treatment Plant and to tertian/ levels at the Rapid Infiltration/Extraction
(RIX) Plant. An average day demand of approximately 7.3 MGD of sewage is collected by
EVWD and treated at the regional plant. In 1995, the City of San Bernardino began operation of
RIY to provide treatment of up to 41.0 MGD of secondary effluent from the existing plants of the
City of San Bernardino and the City of Colton. The RIX plant is located approximately 6 miles
southwesterly and downstream of EVWD's southwesterly boundary. The JPA responsible for
the RIX plant actively pursues markets for the tertiary water as a means of reducing the demand
for local groundwater supply. EVWD is helping to finance the City of San Bernardino's recycled
water project and intends to take advantage of the enhanced SBBA groundwater storage which
will result. Currently the location of RIX makes providing water to customers upstream of the
plant (e.g., East Valley Water District) cost -prohibitive. However, depending on how the City of
San Bernardino's recycled water infrastructure develops, it may be feasible for EVWD to serve
rec,,cled water to the western -most portions of its service area in the future.
7.13.5 Transfers, Exchanges, and Groundwater Banking Programs
7.8,5.1 Transfers and Exchanges
EV'ND has emergency water supply interties to two adjacent water purveyors (SBMWD and the
City of Riverside) to meet needs during periods of lowered groundwater levels, but these are
shcrt-terin, as needed purchases and are not accounted for as additional water supply. In the
pa=_r.. EVWD obtained a small portion of water through an exchange with SBMWD. Due to
ope rational difficulties the exchange was ended, effective October 18, 2007.

7.8.5.2 Groundwater Banking Programs
Artificial recharge is undertaken by both San Bernardino Valley Water Conservation District and
Valley District. Since 2008, Valley District has offered a Cooperative Recharge Program for any
remaining SWP entitlement water after direct deliveries are satisfied. In 2009, the Cooperative
Recharge Program resulted in 17,000 AF of SWP water being recharged into local groundwater
basins. In 2010, 21,750 was recharged through the program. San Bernardino Municipal Water
Department, City of Redlands, WVWD, EVWD, SBMWD, and YVWD have participated in the
Cooperative Recharge Program.
7.8.6 Planned Water Supply Projects and Programs
EVWD is currently enhancing its ability to utilize its existing water supply sources through
several projects that are in various phases of implementation, from planning to preliminary
design to construction. All projects described below are anticipated to be complete by 2015.
• Plant 134 Expansion. EVWD is currently expanding this plant from 4 to 8 MGD by
removing the existing Roberts filters and installing membrane microfiltration. The
expansion of this plant will not only acid 2,700 GPM (4.0 MGD) of capacity, but the plant
reliability is anticipated to be much higher as the membrane microfiltration modules
would be able to treat water that could not be treated before due to high turbidity levels.
As described in Section 7.8.2, construction of a new Plant 150. The purpose of this plant
is to serve as a production and groundwater treatment hub in EVWD's lower pressure
zone. It is located in a portion of the groundwater basin where well yields are high,
however, groundwater quality is impaired with perchlorate concentrations exceeding the
pending MCL of 6 parts per billion in one well. Concentrations of nitrate and PCE in the
Plant 150 feed water currently do not exceed MCLs. However, elevated concentrations
of these two contaminants require EVWD to closely monitor water quality changes and
to implement treatment if it becomes necessary. Phase 1 of this plant will produce
7,000 GPM by treating water from wells 11A, 12A, and 28A for perchlorate and blending
for nitrates. Later phases will make it possible for this plant to treat up to 17,000 GPM.
When added together, these water supply development projects will add an estimated
5,200 GPM of water supply capacity to EVWD over the next five years.
In addition to the near-term additional suppliers discussed in the previous section that will meet
near-term water demand through year 2015, EVWD is evaluating additional projects to meet
water demand at build -out conditions. These projects will be implemented as required by
development in the service area. Supply sources potentially available to EVWD include:
• New groundwater wells
Increasing groundwater production and treatment at Plant 150 to a capacity of
17,000 GPM
• New 10 MGD surface water treatment plant in the Sunrise Ranch area

Regional supply sources from San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District
(SBVMWD)
These projects do not increase water supplies available to EVWD, but rather allow EVWD to
inc ease utilization of existing supplies and to make deliveries to the different portions of the
service area.
EVWD has current water rights of 4 MGD (4,500 AFY) of Santa Ana River water with the ability
to expand to about 6.5 MGD (7,300 AFY) through the conversion of remaining agricultural
properties and water shares of stock. EVWD holds rights to direct delivery of native surface
wa:er, through stock ownership in the North Fork Mutual Water Company. EVWD is currently
the major shareholder in the company and continues to pursue the purchase of additional
shares. As agricultural land converts to urban uses, EVWD gains not only the new urban
demand but the associated water stock shares. These additional supplies are included in the
antupated water supplies previously shown in Tables 7-31 and 7-32.
7.8.7 Total Anticipated Water Supply

7.9 Water Shortage Contingency Plan
Water supplies may be interrupted or reduced significantly in a number of ways, such as
drought which limits supplies, an earthquake which damages delivery or storage facilities, or a
regional power outage. Chapter 5 of this UWMP describes water shortage contingency
planning for regional water supply sources (imported water, groundwater). This section focuses
on water shortage contingency planning for EVWD.
7.9.1 Coordinated Planning
EVWD is a participant within ERNIE a waterAvastewater mutual aid network within San
Bernardino and Riverside Counties. ERNIE is the first aid network that would be activated in
the event of a disaster affecting water/wastewater services in the San Bernardino Valley. If the
disaster overwhelms the local resources, EVWD will activate the California Water/Wastewater
Agency Response Network (CaIWARN) system for statewide mutual aid. EVWD will
immediately contact the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), San Bernardino County
Fire, Operations of Emergency Services, and the California Utilities Emergency Association to
coordinate mutual aid and assistance. If local resources are overwhelmed by the disaster, the
County of San Bernardino Fire Operations of Emergency Services will contact the State of
California Governor's Office of Emergency Services for assistance.
7.9.2 Actions to Prepare for Catastrophic Interruption
EVWD has identified system vulnerabilities due to fire, earthquake, and power outages. EVWD
has developed an Emergency Response Plan. EVWD has in place back-up power supplies at
critical locations within the distribution system. Due to South Coast Air Cluality Management
Board rules and economic restraints, a back-up power supply source at every plant within
EVWD's system is not feasible. EVWD maintains portable pumps that can be used to transfer
water interzonally, but cannot be used for production. Currently, EVWD's storage capacity of
25.5 million gallons would provide a potable supply for customers' non -irrigation uses (assumes
implementation of Water Shortage Contingency Plan) for an estimated two to three days. As
described above, EVWD participates in multiple mutual aid agreements and has agreements in
place for the provision of water supply and/or manpower.
In the event of a natural or man-made disaster that could affect the EVWD's ability to provide a
potable water supply for up to thirty days, the following measures will be implemented as
required
1. The Boil Water notification program will be activated. The notice will be provided to local
radio stations and newspapers. EVWD will contact the media and City and County
agencies. Customers will be notified of supplemental sources of water for cooking and
drinking (e.g. swimming pools, water heaters, and bottled water).
2 Irrigation uses of water will immediately be prohibited. Enforcement will occur through a
cooperative effort with the Sheriffs Department and City of San Bernardino Police
Department and the media

3. The Mutual Aid Agreement with ERNIE will be implemented. The General Manager will
contact general managers from surrounding agencies to obtain assistance in providing
manpower for repairs and/or a supplemental supply of water.
4. Arrowhead Drinking Water Company will be contacted to begin delivery of potable water
tanks to selected sites within the EVWD's service area. The trucks will be manned by
EVWD personnel to distribute water to customers for drinking purposes.
5. A public information program will be initiated. The General Manager will appear on local
television and provide daily reports to the local newspaper and radio stations. Members
of the Board of Directors will speak to local service clubs and chambers of commerce.
7.9.3 Stages of Action to Respond to Water Shortages
A Water Shortage Contingency Plan was originally prepared by EVWD in 1992, in response to
As:;embly Bill 11X (AB 11X) signed into law on October 14, 1991. The bill requires urban water
suppliers providing municipal water directly or indirectly to more than 3,000 customers, or
supplying more than 3,000 acre-feet of water annually, to draft a water shortage contingency
plan in case of a drought for the sixth consecutive year. Plan elements mandated by AB 11X
are addressed therein- The Plan was subsequently incorporated into the EVWD Ordinance
No. 375 Section 15 - Water Conservation (this is included in Appendix G). This section of the
Ordinance addresses water conservation measures the District has adopted for (1) normal
conditions, (2) threatened water supply conditions, and (3) emergency water shortage
conditions. The ordinance sets forth a three -stage water shortage contingency plan for the
conservation of water. This plan includes voluntary and mandatory conservation measures; key
elements are included herein.
• Stage 1 - Normal Conditions: Normal conditions shall be in effect when EVWD is able to
meet all the water demands of its customers in the immediate future. During normal
conditions, all water users should continue to use water wisely, to prevent the waste or
unreasonable use of water, and to reduce water consumption to that necessary for
ordinary domestic and commercial purposes.
Stage 2 - Threatened Water Supply Condition: In the event of a threatened water supply
shortage which could affect EVWD's ability to provide water for ordinary domestic and
commercial uses, the Board of Directors shall hold a public hearing at which consumers
of the water supply shall have the opportunity to protest and to present their respective
needs to the District. The Board may then, by resolution, declare a water shortage
condition to prevail, and the following conservation measures shall be in effect:
• Exterior Landscape Plans - Exterior landscape plans for all new commercial and
industrial development shall provide for timed irrigation and shall consider the use of
drought resistance varieties of flora. Such plans shall be presented to and approved
by EVWD prior to issuance of a water service letter.
• E=xcessive Irrigation and Related Waste -- No customer of EVWD or other person
acting on behalf of or under the direction of a customer shall cause or permit the use
of water for irrigation of landscaping or other outdoor vegetation, plantings, lawns or
other growth, to exceed the amount required to provide reasonable irrigation of

same, and shall not cause or permit any unreasonable or excessive waste of water
from said irrigation activities or from watering devices or systems. The free flow of
water away from an irrigated site shall be presumptively considered excessive
irrigation and waste as defined in Section 3 herein (of Ordinance No. 375).
Agricultural Irrigation — Persons receiving water from EVWD who are engaged in
commercial agricultural practices, whether for the purpose of crop production or
growing of ornamental plants shall provide, maintain and use irrigation equipment
and practices which are the most efficient possible. Upon the request of the General
Manager, these persons may be required to prepare a plan describing their irrigation
practices and equipment, including but not limited to, an estimate of the efficiency of
the use of water on their properties.
Commercial Facilities — Commercial and industrial facilities shall, upon request of the
General Manager, provide EVWD with a plan to conserve water at their facilities.
EVWD will provide these facilities with information regarding the average monthly
water use by the facility for the last two year period. The facility will be expected to
provide EVWD with a plan to conserve or reduce the amount of water used by
that percentage deemed by the Board of Director to be necessary under the
circumstances. After review and approval by the General Manager, the water
conservation plan shall be considered subject to inspection and enforcement by
EVWD.
• Parks, Golf Courses, Swimming Pools, and School Grounds — Public and private
parks, golf courses, swimming pools and school grounds which use water provided
by EVWD shall use water for irrigation and pool filling between the hours of '10:00
P.M. and 6:00 A.M.
• Domestic Irrigation — Upon notice and public hearing, EVWD may determine that the
irrigation of exterior vegetation shall be conducted only during specified hours and/or
days, and may impose other restrictions on the use of water for such irrigation. The
irrigation of exterior vegetation at other than these times shall be considered to be a
waste of water.
• Swimming Pools — All residential, public and recreational swimming pools, of all size,
shall use evaporation resistant covers and shall re -circulate water. Any swimming
pool which does not have a cover installed during periods of non-use shall be
considered a waste of water.
• Run-off and Wash -down — No water provided by EVWD shall be used for the
purposes of wash -down of impervious areas, without specific written authorization of
the General Manager. Any water used on premises that is allowed to escape the
premises and run off into gutters or storm drains shall be considered a waste of
water.
• Vehicle Washing — The washing of cars, trucks or other vehicles is not permitted,
except with a hose equipped with an automatic shut-off device, or a commercial
facility so designated on EVWD's billing records.

• Drinking Water Provided by Restaurants - Restaurants are not to provide drinking
water to patrons except by request.
Stage 3 - Water Shortage Emergency: Mandatory Conservation Measures - In the
event of a water shortage emergency in which EVWD may be prevented from meeting
the water demands of its customers, the Board of Directors shall, if possible, given the
time and circumstances, immediately hold a public hearing at which customers of EVWD
shall have the opportunity to protest and to present their respective needs to the Board.
No public hearing shall be required in the event of a breakage or failure of a pump,
pipeline, or conduit causing an immediate emergency. The General Manager is
empowered to declare a water shortage emergency, subject to the ratification of the
Board of Directors within 72 hours of such declaration, and the following rules and
regulations shall be in effect immediately following such declarations:
• Prohibition - Watering of parks, school grounds, golf courses, lawns, landscape
irrigation, washing down of driveways, parking lots or other impervious surfaces,
washing of vehicles, except when done by commercial car wash establishments
using only recycled or reclaimed water, filling or adding water to swimming pools,
wading pools, spas, ornamental ponds, fountains and artificial lakes are prohibited.
• Restaurants - Restaurants shall not serve drinking water to patrons except by
request.
• Construction Meters - No new construction meter permits shall be issued by EVWD.
All existing construction meters shall be removed and/or locked.
• Commercial Nurseries and Livestock - Commercial nurseries shall discontinue all
watering and irrigation. Watering of livestock is permitted as necessary.
I Ire Ordinance provides for exceptions under certain circumstances, establishes enforcement
provisions, defines the methods for declaring and terminating water conservation stages, and
provides for the form of notices and decisions of the Board of Directors. The specific water
supply conditions for triggering EVWD's mandated conservation measures and the expected
reduction in water use are summarized below in Table 7-34.

7.9.3.1 Penalties
In the implementation of the water shortage contingency plan, the California Water Code
Section 31029 makes any violation of the EVWD's Ordinance a criminal misdemeanor and upon
conviction thereof, the violator will be subject to punishment by fine, imprisonment or both as
may be allowed by law. In addition to criminal penalties, violators of the mandatory provisions
of the ordinance will be subject to civil action initiated by EVWD, as summarized below:
• First Violation - Issuance of written notice of violation of water user.
• Second Violation - A $100 surcharge is imposed on the water meter.
• Third Violation - A $200 surcharge and/or installation of a flow restrictor on the water
meter.
• Subsequent Violations - Discontinuance of service.
In the unlikely event of a severe and extended shortage, EVWD would have to implement other
alternatives to provide enough water to its constituents. The primary and most desirable
alternative would be to develop its surface water supply to make the most use of entitlements to
the local surface waters. Factors that affect the feasibility of surface water development include
growth of future water demands (after holding rights to surface waters, and the investment in
treatment facilities). EVWD could also undertake well drilling to accommodate any long-term
system repairs or outages.
7.9.4 Financial impacts of Actions During Shortages
EVWD's 2010-11 water budget projects total revenue of $15,795,000 and total expenses
(inclusive of debt service and capital outlay) of $15,335,634. The budget also includes an
anticipated contribution to a rate stabilization fund of $229,941. The rate stabilization fund
contribution is in accordance with a District Designated Fund Policy established in July of 2010.
Funds discussed in the policy include the Rate Stabilization Fund and the Capital Replacement
Fund. The EVWD water department currently has no designated fund balances, and, between
2004 and 2009, borrowed from EVWD's sewer department to accomplish significant capital
projects. Assuming tight controls on expenses, rate increases effective October 1, 2010, 2011,
and 2012 will allow EVWD to meet debt service payments, fund capital projects, and begin to
build designated funds in accordance with the Designated Funds Policy.
In the event of a water shortage, a two-point program will be utilized to meet the fiscal shortfall
of reduced water revenues:
. Reduce operation and maintenance expenses
. Defer selected capital improvement projects until water shortage situation improves
Rate Stabilization Funds, once accumulated, will serve as a third means of meeting fiscal
shortfalls.

7.9.5 Mechanism to Determine Reductions in Water Use
Under normal conditions, EVWD prepares monthly production reports which are reviewed and
compared to production reports and pumping statistics from prior months and the same period
of the prior year. Under shortage conditions, these production reports could be prepared as
often as daily. In addition billing reports could be reviewed to identify users who are not abiding
by the water shortage contingency plan.
7.9.6 Minimum Water Supply Available During Next Three Years
1 r.: UWMP Act requires a retailer to quantify the minimum water supply available during the
next three year period, assuming 2011 to 2013 repeat the driest three-year historic sequence for
each water supply source. As shown in Table 7-35, total supplies, given a repeat of historically
low conditions on all water supplies, would be approximately 29,100 AFY. Comparing these
supplies to the demand projections provided in Section 7.5, EVWD has adequate supplies
available to meet projected demands should a multiple -dry year period occur during the next
years

7.10 Supply And Demand Comparisons
The UWMP Act requires urban water suppliers assess water supply reliability by comparing total
projected water use with the expected water supply over the next twenty years in five year
increments. The Act also requires an assessment of single -dry year and multiple -dry years.
This section presents the reliability assessment for EVWD's service area.
7.10.1 Normal Water Year
The Normal/Average year is a year in the historical sequence that most closely represents
median runoff levels and patterns. This section summarizes EVWD's water supplies available
to meet demands over the 20 -year planning period during an average/normal year and
compares them to demands for the same period. In Table 7-36, below, demands are shown
wilh and without the effects of the assumed demand reduction resulting from conservation
aclions. .Assumptions about supplies and demands are provided in Sections 7.5 and 7.8.

Table 7-36 demonstrates the EVWD anticipates adequate supplies for years 2015 to 2035
under Normal conditions.
7.10.2 Single -Dry Year
The single -dry year is generally the lowest annual runoff for a water source in the record. The
single -dry year may differ for various sources. This section summarizes EVWD's water supplies
available to meet demands over the 20 -year planning period during a single -dry year and
compares them to demands for the same period. In Table 7-37, below, demands are assumed
to be 10 percent greater in a single -dry year than during a normal year. Demands are shown
with and without the effects of the assumed demand reduction resulting from conservation
actions. Table 7-37 demonstrates the EVWD anticipates adequate supplies for years 2015 to
2035 under single -dry year conditions.
7.10.3 Multiple -Dry Years
The multiple -dry year is generally the lowest annual runoff for a three year or more consecutive
period. The multiple -dry year period may differ for various sources. This section summarizes
EVWD's water supplies available to meet demands over the 20 -year plainning period during a
multiple -dry year period and compares them to demands for the same time frame. In
Table 7-38, below, demands are assumed to be 10 percent greater in a multiple -dry year than
during an average year. Demands are shown with and without the effects of the assumed
demand reduction resulting from conservation actions. Table 7-38 demonstrates the EVWD
anticipates adequate supplies for years 2015 to 2035 under multiple -dry year conditions.
