— ----- �`v 1�1 <br /> Recvcled Water Use has Increased <br /> The Citys development of recycled water has played a significant role in offsetting demand for <br /> imported supplies. From 2010 to 2014, recycled water deliveries nearly doubled to 750 AFY, <br /> which is generally consistent with the 2010 UWMP's projected demand of 987 AFY for 2015 and <br /> 1,280 AFY in 2020. In addition, EKI understands that the City is currently in the process of <br /> completing Phase 2 of its recycled water project, which will expand recycled water <br /> infrastructure to central Redwood City and other areas west of Highway 101. Phase 2 includes <br /> the construction of approximately 10 miles of piping, 3 million galtons of storage facilities, and <br /> two booster pump stations. EKI understands that when Phase 2 is completed, the City will be <br /> able to satisfy the projected additional demand of 780 AFY in the newly-accessible areas. Uses <br /> of recycled water are expected to include commercial, residential and municipal irrigation, and <br /> indoor uses such as toilet flushing and cooling in new commercial developments. Further, the <br /> infrastructure that is being constructed as part of Phase 2 will give the City the ability to suppiy <br /> recycled water to neighboring cities". With pumping and pipeline facilities sized to deliver over <br /> 3,200 AFYS, the City is well positioned to increase recycled water deliveries, locally and <br /> regionally. <br /> The Citv can Hi�hli�ht its Strons Record on Conservation <br /> EKI's preliminary review of the Cit�s gross per capita water use data indicates that the City <br /> used approximately 105 gallons per capita per day ("GPCD") du�ing Fiscal Year ("FY") 2013-14. <br /> Assuming this level of per capita demands holds constant or decreases, the City appears to be <br /> in full compliance with the targets that it established in its 2010 UWMP based on use of Target <br /> Method 3 (i.e., 133 GPCD in 2015 and 124 GPCD in 2020) and limited additional analysis will be <br /> required. <br /> EKI also understands that through previous and ongoing conservation efforts, the City has <br /> achieved further significant reductions in water use in response to the drought. According to <br /> the SWRCB Water Supplier Conservation Compliance Data, as of Au�ust 2015, the City has <br /> achieved a 27.49G cumulative water demand reduction relative to water use during June <br /> through August 2013. As a result, the City has significantly exceeded its SWRCB-mandated 8% <br /> water conservation target. <br /> 5.2 Projett Approach <br /> EKI has a unique approach to preparing UWMPs that involves efficient use of staff time via <br /> collaborative work efforts and streamlines the UWMP development. This project approach is <br /> presented below. <br /> °Source:Bay Area Integrated Regional Water Management Plan Website:(http://bairwmp.org/projects/redwood- <br /> city-recycled-water-p ro ject) <br /> S Source:Gty of Redwood City 2010 UWMP <br /> Page �14 <br /> Redwood City Publlc Works Services Department 2015 UWMP (EKI BS-078j <br /> ATTY/AGR.2015.248/EKI - Development of 2015 Urban Water Management Plan <br />
