Reduced Reliance on the Delta
<br />• Water Supplies Contributing to Regional Self -Reliance
<br />THE CITY OF
<br />rL£ASANTON®
<br />Water Use Efficiency -This amount is calculated by DWR's spreadsheet tool based on the
<br />City's baseline demand, actual demands, and expected future demands. The value shown
<br />is the reduction in per capita water demand from the baseline (2010) multiplied by the
<br />projected population for each. Because the City has successfully reduced per capita
<br />potable water demands over time, water use efficiency contributes significantly to the
<br />City's regional self-reliance.
<br />Water Recycling - The City substantially completed construction of its recycled water
<br />distribution system in 2016. Recycled water contributes to regional self-reliance by
<br />reducing the demand for potable water.
<br />Conjunctive Use Projects -The City pumps groundwater as part of its normal water supply
<br />portfolio. By agreement with Zone 7, the City can pump up to 3,500 acre-feet per year
<br />(AFY) from the local groundwater basin (Main Basin). If the City pumps less than
<br />3,500 acre-feet (AF) in a year, it can carry over up to 700 AF of pumping capacity to the
<br />following year.
<br />• Water Supplies from the Delta Watershed
<br />• CVP/SWP Contract Supplies - Some of Zone 7's water supplies are from the Delta
<br />watershed. Since the City purchases treated water from Zone 7, a portion of the City's
<br />supplies therefore originated in the Delta watershed. To estimate this portion, it was
<br />assumed the composition of Zone 7's deliveries to the City in a gIu .,. , :, would mirror that
<br />of Zone 7's overall supply portfolio for that same year. For example, in 2020 approximately
<br />63 percent of Zone 7's supplies were from the Delta watershed. Therefore, it was assumed
<br />63 percent of Zone 7's 2020 deliveries to the City were from the Delta watershed.
