6.G. - Page 35 of 238 <br />a reduction or interruption, San Francisco will restore the supply of water to the specific <br />geographical area as soon as is possible. Except in cases of Emergencies (during which oral <br />notice shall be sufficient), San Francisco will give the affected Wholesale Customer(s) <br />reasonable written notice of such localized reductions or interruptions, the reasons therefor, and <br />the probable duration thereof. <br />B. System -Wide Shortages and SFPUC Response to Regional Emergencies. <br />Following a major system emergency event, the SFPUC will work closely with its Wholesale <br />Customers to monitor customer demand, including the demand source. In the event that any <br />individual Wholesale Service Area or Retail Service Area customer's uncontrolled distribution <br />system leaks could result in major water waste and endanger the supply provided by the <br />Regional Water System as a whole, flow through some customer connections may need to be <br />temporarily reduced or terminated. SFPUC will work closely with customers to assess the <br />nature of the demand (e.g. fire -fighting versus leakage), so that public health and safety <br />protection can be given top priority. <br />All emergencies that require use of non -potable source water will require <br />use of chlorine, or other suitable disinfectant, if feasible. <br />2. San Francisco will use its best efforts to meet the seismic reliability and <br />delivery reliability Level of Service Goals and Objectives adopted by the Commission in <br />conjunction with the WSIP. San Francisco will distribute water on an equitable basis throughout <br />the Regional Water System service area following a regional Emergency, subject to physical <br />limitations caused by damage to the Regional Water System. <br />3. San Francisco's response to Emergencies will be guided by the then - <br />current version of the ERRP. The SFPUC shall periodically review, and the Commission may <br />amend, the ERRP to ensure that it remains an up-to-date and effective management tool. <br />4. The SFPUC will give the Wholesale Customers notice of any proposal to <br />amend the ERRP in a manner that would affect them. The notice will be delivered at least thirty <br />days in advance of the date on which the proposal is to be considered by the Commission and <br />will be accompanied by the text of the proposed amendment. <br />C. Shortages Caused by Drought; Acquisition of Dry Year Supplies. <br />Notwithstanding San Francisco's obligations to deliver the Supply Assurance to the Wholesale <br />Customers collectively and the Individual Supply Guarantees to Wholesale Customers <br />17 <br />15118728.1 <br />366 <br />
