Compliance with the Water Conservation Act of 2009 (SBx7-7) <br /> In November 2009, the California legislature passed the Water Conservation Act of 2009 <br /> (SBx7-7). SBx7-7 created a framework for future planning and actions by urban water <br /> retailers and agricultural water suppliers to reduce California's water use. Specifically, <br /> SBx7-7 requires urban water retailers to reduce statewide per capita water consumption <br /> by 20 percent by 2020. Each of the Tri-Valley water retailers are required to comply with <br /> the requirements of SBx7-7 and incorporate adopted per capita water use targets into <br /> their 2010 UWMPs. <br /> Each of the retailers conducted an extensive evaluation of historical per capita water use <br /> within their respective service areas to establish their baseline and target per capita water <br /> use. Table 9 provides a summary of each retailer's baseline and target per capita water <br /> use as determined using the SBx7-7 methodologies and as reported in their respective <br /> 2010 UWMPs. <br /> RETAILER COMPLIANCE WITH SBX7-7 <br /> California <br /> Water <br /> Service <br /> Company- <br /> City of City of Livermore <br /> Livermore Pleasanton DSRSD District <br /> Al <br /> 10-Year Baseline Period Selected 1999-2008 1996-2005 1996-2005 1999-2008 <br /> 10-Year Baseline Per Capita Water Use, 194.6 244 204 198 <br /> gpcd <br /> 2015 Per Capita Water Use Target, 175.1 220 183 178 <br /> gpcd <br /> 2020 Per Capita Water Use Target, 155.7 195 163 158 <br /> gpcd <br /> Actual "Overall" 2010 Per Capita Water 170 208 121 161 <br /> Use, gpcd (a) <br /> Updated "Overall" 2011 Per Capita Water 208 <br /> Use. gpcd (b <br /> (a) Based on total (gross) water use in 2010. <br /> Source: 2010 UWMPs for City of Livermore, City of Pleasanton, DSRSD, and California <br /> Water Service Company—Livermore District. <br /> (b) Based on total (gross) water use in 2011.
