TO: CITY COUNCIL
FROM: BILL ROBESON, ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER/PUBLIC WORKS
DIRECTOR
BY: SHANE TAYLOR, UTILITIES MANAGER
SUBJECT: MONTHLY WATER SUPPLY AND DEMAND UPDATE
DATE: SEPTEMBER 22, 2020
SUMMARY OF ACTION:
This update reports the water supply and demand for August 2020. Current Lopez
Reservoir 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On April 25, 2017, the City Council, by resolution, rescinded the Stage 1 Water Shortage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 the public hearing, the City Council requested staff to continue preparing the
monthly water supply and demand updates. The Council urged citizens to continue to
practice every-day water saving measures and reiterated that the previously-adopted
water saving measures were to remain in effect.
In August 2020, the City’s water use was 242.2 acre-feet with a per capita use of 144
gallons per day/per person. There was a total of 0.0 inches of rainfall in August 2020.
The water use for the current “rolling” water year from September 2019 to August 2020
was 2,283 acre-feet, which equates to a per capita use of 116 gallons per day/per person.
There was a total of 15.02 inches of rain fall for this period.
ANALYSIS OF ISSUES:
The United States Drought Monitor, as of September 9, 2020, shows San Luis Obispo
County as normal. Rainfall to date (July 1, 2020 to August 31, 2020) is 0.0 inches at the

Corporation Yard rain gauge. Lopez Lake, as of September 9, 2020, is at 45.2% capacity
(22,341 acre-feet of storage).
The new water year began on April 1, 2020, and the current total available supply from
Lopez is 2,290 acre-feet, our normal entitlement. In addition, we have 1,323 acre-feet of
ground water entitlement from the Santa Maria Basin and 160 acre-feet from the Pismo
Formation. In addition, 111 acre-feet of surplus water from Lopez was requested. The
projected water use for 2020/21 is 2,300 acre-feet. In conclusion, based on average
rainfall for the next two years, the current supply will meet the projected demand.
