Chapter 6 Water Supply Characterization 6.2.6 Desalinated Water THE CITY OF PL£ASANTON Due to infeasibility, the City does not independently consider the development of a desalinated water system as a source of water within the planning horizon. This includes ocean water, brackish water, and groundwater desalination (though Zone 7 desalinates a portion of its groundwater). However, desalination has been identified as a potentially viable water source for several Bay Area water suppliers, including Zone 7. The Bay Area Regional Desalination Project (BARDP) is detailed in Section 6.2.8.1. 6.2.7 Water Exchanges and Transfers The City currently does not have any potable water transfer agreements, nor does the City anticipate participating directly in any such transfer opportunities in the future. Zone 7 periodically supplements existing supplies with short-term transfers when needed and intends to more regularly acquire water transfers over the coming decade until major supply reliability project(s) come online starting around 2030. A transfer agreement with another SWP contractor using the SWP system—which Zone 7 is already invested in—is likely the most expedient and cost-effective transfer option. Transfer water would be conveyed to Zone 7 through the Delta and the SBA; the transfer amount could vary from year-to-year depending on hydrology but could average between 5,000 to 10,000 AFY. For the 2020 UWMP, Zone 7 is assuming 5,000 AFY in water transfers through 2030. Zone 7 will continue to pursue and evaluate transfer opportunities in the Bay Area and statewide. Through the Bay Area Regional Reliability Partnership, Zone 7 is participating in a reclamation grant -funded project to develop a "Regional Water Market Program," which will identify transfer types and opportunities and develop a road map to facilitate transfers and exchanges in the Bay Area. Zone 7's existing water transfer supply sources and non -local storage options are detailed in Chapter 6 of Zone 7's 2020 UWMP. 6.2.8 Future Water Projects The City obtains its potable water supply from Zone 7 and supports its efforts to pursue opportunities of future water supply projects. The City itself does not have any plans for new water supply projects, as shown in Table 6-8. Table 6-8. Expected Future Water Supply Projects or Programs (DWR Table 6-7 Retail) NOTES: The City does not plan to pursue opportunities for development of future water supply projects; rather, it supports Zone Ts efforts.
