Redwood City 2000 URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN <br /> <br /> Supply and Demand Comparison Provisions <br /> <br />Law <br /> <br /> 10635 (a) Every urban water supplier shall include, <br /> as part of its urban water management plan, an <br /> as~,essment of the reliability of its water service to its <br /> customers during normal, dry, and multiple dry <br /> water years. This water supply and demand <br /> assessment shall compare the total water supply <br /> sources available to the water supplier with the total <br /> projected water use over the next 20 years, in five- <br /> year increments, for a normal water year, a single <br /> dr~ water year, and multiple dry water years. The <br /> water service reliability assessment shall be based <br /> upon the information compiled pursuant to Section <br /> 10631, including available data from the state, <br /> regional, or local agency population projections <br /> within the service area of the urban water supplier. <br /> <br />Supply and D~lnand Comparison <br /> <br />Current and projected Redwood City system water demand is in excess of the <br />BAWUA Interim Water Shortage Allocation Pla~ (IWSAP) assured supply level <br />(10.92 million gals/day) (Table 5). Because the SFPUC system has a supply <br />surplus, Redwood City currently has adequate supplies to meet its projected water <br />demands. However, as the SFPUC/BAWUA water demands increase in the future, <br />absent actions to increase the SFPUC system water supplies or adjustments in <br />allocations, Redwood City customers will be subjected to an increasing risk of <br />water delivery shortage. <br /> <br /> 15,2002 21 Ke~sionNo. I <br /> <br /> <br />
