ES.1 Background <br /> Redwood City (!he City) is 100% reliant on one $f;I\Jrce of potable water supply. the San <br />. Francisco Hetch Hatchy regional water system. Currently, thø City Iscoosuming3Pproximately <br /> 1.000 acre-filet per year (AF/yr}øver thecOntracluiiJ (wholesala) suppJyassurance of 12,243 <br /> AF/yr. ThøRedwo.od City water Use ForðCa$t for20oo to 2020, dated June 20, 2002 (prepared <br />I by John Whitcomb, PhD), Includes watar supply projectlotlSassocla.ted with future housing, <br /> eIl\PlOymant,.and populâli(¡n. etc.. The Water Use Forecast explores future water supply <br /> scenari()s including .the 'wpi'$tcase' sC$nalio that axcludesany water conseMl~onand a <br /> scenario thaI takes into aQCQunt passl\/e water conservatiOn. The potential Water supply <br />I savitlgsaSSOCiated with an active water conselVation scenario are addressed in the City's <br /> Urban Water Management Plan. Based on these forecasts and planrnn9. the City win need <br /> additional water suppDes to meet both current and future needs. <br />. The City has fOur options to redUce CU!Tent demands on the Hetch Hetchy supply. in order to <br /> comply with the supply assurance and provide supply for i'ulure 9 rowth: <br />. 1. Negotiate water transfers ftomotner agencies that use the Hetch Hatch)' regional <br /> system <br />. 2. Neg(1liate a new SOurce of potable water supply ví8 the reg!Q(lal system ("wheeling") <br /> 3. Implement water conservation meaSures <br />. 4. Implement a water recycling program for landscape Irrigation IInd Industrial uses <br /> This study builds upon the joint I'IICycted water pilot projactbeing operated In Redwood Shores <br />. by the South BaySkteSyslem AU!hor1ty (SBSA) and the City, and.onthe Water Recyciing <br /> Feasibility Study far the RedwoodShol'e$ Area (Keooedy/Jenks Consultants, January 22, <br /> 2002). <br />. ES.2 Markèt Assessment <br />I Three geographIcal areas wi.thìn the Cily were re\liewed relaUveto providing a new marl<et for <br /> recycled water U$a. The areas generally Include Redwood Shores, the 'GreaterBayfront Area" <br /> and Central Redwood City. Potential recycled water uses are primarily for landscape Irrigation <br />I in Redwood Shores and Central Redwood City. Some Industrial uses, and potential for intemal <br /> uses such as tolletftushing, exist prlmalily In the Greater Baylrontarea and, 10 a lesser extent, <br /> Central Redwood City, <br />. To facilitate sUbsequent evaluatiOns in thIs report, the potential customers were grouped into <br /> fourc!ssslfk:ations: <br />. <br />. <br /> WilIer Recycling F'aøsIbH/ty SIu<ty for RedwoOd GJiy iv <br />
