Current Lopez Lake level and projected levels are provided in the attachments. IMPACT ON FINANCIAL AND PERSONNEL RESOURCES: Approximately two (2) hours of staff time is required to prepare the report. RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended the City Council receive and file the Monthly Water Supply and Demand Report. BACKGROUND: On April 25, 2017, the City Council, by Resolution, rescinded the Stage 1 Water Shortage Emergency along with related emergency water conservation measures and restrictions. During that public meeting, Council requested that staff continue preparing the monthly water supply and demand updates. Council urged citizens to continue to practice everyday water saving measures, and reiterated that the previously adopted water conservation measures were to remain in effect. In February 2021, the City’s water use was 148.2 acre-feet with a per capita use of 98 gallons per day/per person. There was a total of 0.35 inches of rainfall in February 2021. The water use for the current “rolling” water year from March 2020 to February 2021 was 2,318.5 acre-feet which equates to a per capita use of 117 gallons per day per person. There was a total of 15.92 inches of rain fall for this period. ANALYSIS OF ISSUES: The United States Drought Monitor, as of March 12, 2021, shows San Luis Obispo County in a moderate drought. Rainfall to date for the period July 1, 2020, through March 12, 2021, is 9 inches at the Corporation Yard rain gauge. Lopez Lake, as of March 12, 2021, is at 39.6% capacity (19,537 acre-feet of storage).

Storage projection is based on predicted rainfall from longrangeweather.com, inflow based on predicted rainfall, 20-21 downstream release requests, and municipal usage. 2. Municipal Usage is based on Jan 2010-Dec 2019 average monthly deliveries. 3. Predicted inflow is based off of historical precipitation and storage data. Antecedant moisture conditions are factored into the model.The first rainstorms after months without rain will cause less inflow than rainstorms during the rainy season. If the average daily rainfall for the previous three months is below 1 inch the model will multiply the predicted inflow by 0.1, if the average is above 1 inch the inflow is multiplied by 1.25.
