overall reduction targets for the entire water system. These reduction targets are used for each of the customer classes. Table 5-1: Drought Stages and Reduction Line Water ReductionBaseline 1 Target Reduction Goal 0% <10% <20% <30% <40% <50% >50% Water usage by customer class for each drought stage are calculated once the water reductions are determined. Each customer account gets a bi-monthly allotment of 10 ccf of water that is exempt from being charged drought rates. Table 5-2 shows the annual allotment for each customer class in ccf(Column Q. Table 5-2: Drought Rate Exempt Allotment by Customer Class Line bv Class Accounts - Allotment 1 Single Family Residential 24,183 1,450,980 2 Multi-Family Residential 576 34,560 3 Commercial 1,009 60,540 4 Industrial 4 240 5 Irrigation 904 54,240 6 Total 26,676 1,600,560 Water usage by customer class for each drought stage is calculated once the water reductions are determined. Table 5-3 shows the estimated water usage in ccf for each stage of drought that align with the percent reduction targets for the system(Table 5-1). Baseline use(Column B) is equal to the estimated water use in FY 2024. The percent reduction from Baseline(Line 20) is the difference between the total usage in Stages 1 through 6 compared to the Baseline scenario. Note that the percent reduction from Baseline is equal to the target reduction for the system. The usage reductions for Single Family Residential customers are assumed to reduce from the highest tiers first, which provides the most conservative revenue projections and shows the prioritization for beneficial water use for indoor health and hygiene based on the guidance in Article X of the California Constitution.
