ZONE 7 WATER QUALITY PROGRAM Zone 7 Water Quality Policy, Goals, and Targets, adopted by the Zone 7 Board of Directors in 2003, were developed after extensive discussions with, and in cooperation with, local retail water Contractors, including the California Water Service Company, the Cities of Livermore and Pleasanton, and the Dublin San Ramon Services District, and other interested stakeholders. The adopted Water Quality Policy expressly required that the Water Quality Program Implementation Plan be reviewed and updated at a minimum of every two years to reflect any emerging water quality issues and/or other relevant regulatory and/or technology development, and that, as feasible, any plan updates be incorporated into the annual updates of the Zone 7 Capital Improvement Plan. Zone 7 staff began work on the initial update to the adopted 2003 Implementation Plan in March 2005. Opinion surveys conducted by Zone 7, the City of Pleasanton, and the Dublin San Ramon Services District show that a substantial number of customers desire feasible improvements to the quality of their water supply. The following is a brief description of the preliminary Work Plan for the Water Quality Policy and Implementation Plan Update and the anticipated schedule.
