On March 2nd, the State Water Project released its most recent allocation for 2015 <br /> supplies at 20% of normal. Zone 7 has requested 80,619 acre/ft for the Tri-Valley. The <br /> allocation now stands at 16,124 acre/ft for 2015 or 20% of the requested amount. <br /> City's Local Emergency Meets Compliance for Mandatory Reductions. With the drought <br /> entering its fourth year, concerns about the community's health, safety and welfare <br /> require the continuation of the City's local drought emergency. <br /> Pleasanton's Stage 3 mandatory 25% reduction meets the broad requirements of the <br /> Governor's April 1, 2015 Executive Order. That order directs the State Water <br /> Resources Control Board (Water Board) to: (a) "...consider the relative per capita water <br /> usage of each water suppliers' service area, and require that those areas with high per <br /> capita use achieve proportionately greater reductions than those with low use."; and (b) <br /> "...direct urban water suppliers to develop rate structures and other pricing mechanisms, <br /> including but not limited to surcharges, fees and penalties, to maximize water <br /> conservation..." The Water Board did adopt such per capita restrictions, and the current <br /> City stage 3 drought emergency meets the required 24% reduction adopted on May 5, <br /> 2015. <br /> Subm• /Ably Approve y: <br /> Daniel Sm' Nelson Fialho <br /> Director Operations Services City Manager <br /> Attachments: <br /> 1.
