San Francisco and each Wholesale Customer agree that they will diligently apply <br />their best efforts to use both surface water and groundwater sources located within their <br />respective service areas and available recycled water to the maximum feasible extent, taking <br />into account the environmental impacts, the public health effects and the effects on supply <br />reliability of such use, as well as the cost of developing such sources. <br />3.07.

Each Wholesale Customer (except for Alameda County Water District and the <br />cities of Milpitas, Mountain View and Sunnyvale) agrees that it will not contract for, purchase or <br />receive, with or without compensation, directly or indirectly, from any person, corporation, <br />governmental agency or other entity, any water for delivery or use within its service area without <br />the prior written consent of San Francisco. <br />B. The prohibition in subsection A does not apply to: <br />1. recycled water; <br />2. water necessary on an emergency and temporary basis, provided that the <br />Wholesale Customer promptly gives San Francisco notice of the nature of the emergency, the <br />amount of water that has been or is to be purchased, and the expected duration of the <br />emergency; or <br />3. water in excess of a Wholesale Customer’s Individual Supply Guarantee. <br />C. Minimum Annual Purchase Quantities. Alameda County Water District and the <br />cities of Milpitas, Mountain View and Sunnyvale may purchase water from sources other than <br />San Francisco, provided that San Francisco shall require that each purchase a minimum annual <br />quantity of water from San Francisco.
