DRIER YEARS. As it applies to the Roseville's portion of the Agreement, Drier Years is defined as follows: Years when the projected March through November Unimpaired Inflow to Folsom Reservoir is less than 950,000 acre feet and greater than or equal to 400,000 acre feet. In drier years, Roseville will divert and use a decreasing amount of surface water from 54,900 AF to 39,800 AF in proportion to the decrease in unimpaired inflow, from 950,000 to 400,000 AF, to Folsom Reservoir. During drier years Roseville will continue to meet their customers' needs while reducing diversions by additional conservation, using groundwater, and using reclaimed water. Additionally, Roseville will enter into an agreement with the Placer County Water Agency (PCWA) for replacing water to the River, up to 20,000 AF, from reoperation of PCWA's Middle Fork Project (MFP) reservoirs.
DRIER YEARS. As it applies to the CWD portion of the Agreement, drier years is defined as follows: years when the projected March through November unimpaired inflow to Folsom Reservoir is less than 950,000 AF and equal to or greater than 400,000 AF. In drier years, CWD will divert and use up to its license amount, 14,000 AF. By the year 2030, it is most likely that the water demand for the District will be reduced to its historic baseline level of 12,000 AF by implementation of urban water conservation BMPs. There is no reduction in diversion for CWD in drier years, since the 12,000 AF is equivalent to its baseline diversion.
DRIER YEARS. As it applies to these diverters, years when the projected March through November Unimpaired Inflow to Folsom Reservoir is less than 950,000 acre feet.
DRIER YEARS. As it applies to the Folsom's portion of the Agreement, Drier Years is defined as follows: Years when the projected March through November Unimpaired Inflow to Folsom Reservoir is less than 950,000 acre feet and equal to or greater than 400,000 acre feet. In drier years, Folsom will divert and use a decreasing amount of surface water from 34,000 AF to 22,000 AF (or the equivalent, see example below) in a 3 stage stepped and ramped reduction in proportion to the decrease in the March through November when unimpaired inflow to Folsom Reservoir, from 950,000 to 400,000 AF. Stage 1, a decreasing amount from 34,000 AF to 30,000 AF in proportion to the decrease in March through November unimpaired inflow to Folsom Reservoir greater than 870,000 AF but less than 950,000 AF. Stage 2, fixed at 27,000 AF when the March through November unimpaired inflow to Folsom Reservoir is greater than 650,000 AF but less than or equal to 870,000. Stage 3, fixed at 22,000 AF when the March through November unimpaired inflow to Folsom Reservoir is equal to or greater than 400,000 AF but less than or equal to 650,000 AF. As an example of how Folsom will meet its needs during drier years, Folsom will reduce diversions by imposing additional conservation levels, and will continue to divert water from Folsom Reservoir for the balance of their needs. However, Folsom will enter into agreements with other purveyors that have access to both surface water and groundwater for an equivalent exchange of the amount of reduction needed by Folsom as outlined above in the 3 stages of reduction. Under these arrangements, other purveyors will use groundwater in lieu of surface water equivalent to the amount that Folsom would continue to divert.
DRIER YEARS. As it applies to the City of Sacramento, time periods when the flows bypassing the City’s X. X. Xxxxxxxxx Water Treatment Plant diversion do not exceed the “Xxxxx flows.” Within its existing capacity, the City can divert from the American River 155 cfs in June, July and August, 120 cfs in January through May and September, and 100 cfs in October through December.
