30 2025 Amended and Restated WSA 21945395.2 governing the operation of the Project with the Participating Pumpers entitled “Agreement for Groundwater Storage and Recovery from the Southern Portion of the Westside Groundwater Basin by and among the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, the City of Daly City, the City of San Bruno, and California Water Service Company” (“Project Operating Agreement”), which became effective on December 16, 2014. The Project produces Regional benefits for all customers of the Regional Water System by making use of available groundwater storage capacity in the Southern portion of the Westside Basin through the supply of additional surface water (“In Lieu Water”) to the Participating Pumpers from the Regional Water System, in exchange for a corresponding reduction in groundwater pumping at existing wells owned by the Participating Pumpers. The new groundwater supply that accrues to storage as a result of delivery of In Lieu Water will be recovered from the SFPUC Storage Account during water shortages using new Regional Project Facilities or Shared Facilities operated by the Participating Pumpers and the SFPUC. Project mitigation capital costs and annual Project operations and maintenance expenses and water supplies shall be allocated as follows: A. All In Lieu Water delivered to the Participating Pumpers shall be (1) temporary and interruptible in nature and (2) at the sole discretion of the SFPUC based on the total volume of water available to the Regional Water System. B. All In Lieu Water delivered to the Participating Pumpers shall be considered a delivery of water to storage and shall not be construed to affect or increase the Individual Supply Guarantees of these Wholesale Customers or to otherwise entitle them to any claim of water in excess of their Individual Supply Guarantees. C. In the event that it is necessary to reduce the Participating Pumpers’ aggregate designated quantity of groundwater production allocation pursuant to Section 4.7 of the Project Operating Agreement, the SFPUC may supply an annual maximum of up to 500 acre feet of Participating Pumper Replacement Water from the Regional Water System at a price comparable to the Participating Pumpers’ then-current groundwater cost, as may be adjusted annually as provided for in Section 4.7 of the Project Operating Agreement. Each of the Participating Pumpers may elect to take delivery of its share of Participating Pumper Replacement Water either as interruptible surface water deliveries from the Regional Water System or as a transfer of storage credits from the SFPUC Storage Account. All revenue received from such water sales or transfers shall be considered revenue related to the sale of water and allocated between Retail Customers and Wholesale Customers on the basis of
