3.74 -31 <br />DRAFT URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN <br />other agencies have not produced any affirmative responses. It is not possible to <br />rely on this potential source unless and until contracts are signed with one or more <br />other BAWUA agencies. <br />❑ Securing water from willing sellers outside the BAWUA service area is <br />theoretically possible. State laws.enacted in the 1980s allow for "wheeling" of <br />water from willing sellers to willing buyers through transmission systems owned <br />by third parties — such as the SFPUC's San Joaquin pipelines. This is a more <br />complex process and one that would require not only a contract with a water <br />supplier (such as an irrigation agency), but also approval by the SFPUC. <br />The newly formed Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency 10 will enable the 29 <br />wholesale customers of the San Francisco Hetch Hetchy regional water system to plan for <br />and acquire supplemental water supplies, to encourage water conservation and use of <br />recycled water on a regional basis, and to assist in the financing of essential public works <br />in a coordinated and cost - effective manner. As this agency is formed and developed, <br />transfer opportunities may become easier to initiate. <br />0 Enabled by Assembly Bill 2058 as passed by Legislature on August 30, 2002. <br />21 <br />
