Mr. James McDaniel, Chief Operating Officer—Water System Mr. Delon Kwan, Water Resources Planning and Policy CITY OF LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER 111 North Hope Street, Room 1455 Los Angeles, California 90012 Re: REQUEST FOR WATER SUPPLY ASSESSMENT—THE CROSSROADS
HOLLYWOOD PROJECT Dear Mr. McDaniel and Mr. Kwan:
California Senate Bill (SB) 610, effective January 1, 2002, states that a water supply assessment must be provided to local governments for inclusion in any environmental documentation for certain projects subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Specifically, SB 610 requires that for certain projects, the CEQA lead agency must identify any public water system that may supply water to the proposed project and request the public water system to determine the water demand associated with the project and whether such demand was included as part of the most recently adopted Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). Per Section 10912 of the California Water Code (CWC), a project which is subject to the requirements of SB 610 includes: (1) a shopping center or business establishment that will employ more than 1,000 persons or have more than 500,000 square feet of floor space; (2) a commercial office building that will employ more than 1,000 persons or have more than 250,000 square feet of space; or (3) any mixed-use project that would demand an amount of water equal to or greater than the amount of water needed to serve a 500 dwelling unit project.
The Crossroads Hollywood Project (hereafter referred to as the Project) meets Criteria 1 and 3 above. The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) has been identified as the public water system (as defined in CWC Section 10912 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15083.5(e)) that would serve the Project. Accordingly, the Department of City Planning (CEQA lead agency for the Project) requests that the LADWP: (1) determine whether the estimated water demand associated with the
Crossroads WSA Request Letter_3-31-16.pdf for Printed Item: 1058 ( Attachment 1 of 4)
Page 7 of 8813
Mr. James McDaniel, Chief Operating Officer—Water System LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER March 31, 2016 – Page 2 Project was included as part of LADWP’s most recently adopted UWMP; and (2) prepare and approve a water supply assessment using the UWMP or new analyses for the Project pursuant to CWC Section 10910 et seq.
The requirements for a water supply assessment include the identification of existing water supply entitlements, water rights, or water service contracts held by LADWP’s public water system, and prior years’ water deliveries received by LADWP’s public water system. Please refer to CWC Section 10910 (d)(2) for the documentation required to verify any identified rights to a water supply. If the LADWP has not received water in prior years as described in CWC Section 10910 (e) or if groundwater is a source of supply as described in CWC Section 10910 (f), please comply with the requirements of those sections.
The Department of City Planning, which is preparing an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for the Project in accordance with CEQA, requests that the water supply assessment include a discussion of whether LADWP’s public water system’s total projected water supplies available during normal, single dry, and multiple dry water years will meet the projected water demand associated with the Project, in addition to LADWP’s public water system’s existing and planned future uses, including agricultural and manufacturing uses, pursuant to CWC Section 10910 (c)(3).
Project Location
The Project Site consists of 29 individual parcels across four City blocks in the Hollywood Community of the City of Los Angeles. The approximately 8.0-acre (348,419-square-foot) Project Site is generally bounded by Selma Avenue to the north; the Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church and School to the east; Sunset Boulevard to the south; and Highland Avenue to the west. The Project Site is currently developed with various uses including 84 multi-family residential dwelling units; one- and two-story structures used for commercial office and retail uses; and surface parking lots. Existing on-site uses include the Crossroads of the World complex (Crossroads of the World), which includes low-density commercial and office uses. Intermittent landscaping is dispersed throughout the Project Site and generally consists of ornamental trees and shrubs.
Project Description
The Project would remove all existing on-site uses except Crossroads of the World, which would be rehabilitated and converted back to retail/restaurant uses. Crossroads of the World would be integrated into a new mixed-use development comprised of eight new buildings housing residential, hotel, commercial/retail, office, and restaurant uses. Upon Project build-out, the Project (including existing uses to be retained) would include approximately 950 residential units, 308 hotel rooms, 95,000

Page 8 of 8813
Mr. James McDaniel, Chief Operating Officer—Water System LOS ANGELES DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER March 31, 2016 – Page 3 square feet of office uses, and 185,000 square feet of commercial/retail uses, totaling approximately 1,432,500 square feet of floor area. Approximately 83,200 square feet of the proposed retail area would consist of restaurant uses, with a maximum total of 3,037 seats. Building heights would range from 3 to 32 floors with a maximum building height of approximately 402 feet above grade. New, below-grade parking would be provided for all portions of the Project with a maximum of five levels of subterranean parking. In total, the Project would provide approximately 2,596 vehicular parking spaces. A conceptual site plan is attached as part of the Notice of Preparation.
The Project would include open space and green space consisting of a series of integrated walkways that would connect the dynamic mixed-use district created by the Project with the Hollywood neighborhood. Proposed additional landscaped public walkways would also promote access and connectivity to and through the Project Site from Sunset Boulevard, Las Palmas Avenue, Selma Avenue, and McCadden Place. In addition, the Project would also include active and passive recreational spaces including roofdecks and pools, community rooms and recreational facilities, courtyards, landscaped gardens, and common open space with gathering and seating areas. In total, approximately 31,184 square feet of the open space provided would consist of landscaped surface area.
Existing Water Consumption
As discussed above, the Project Site is currently developed with various uses including 84 multi-family residential dwelling units; one- and two-story structures used for commercial/retail and office uses; and surface parking lots. Existing on-site uses include a total of approximately 172,573 square feet of floor area. As shown in Table 1 on page 4, the Project Site currently generates a water demand of approximately 20,000 gallons per day.
Forecast of Project Water Demand
Table 2 on page 4 provides the estimated water demand forecast for the Project using the City’s Bureau of Sanitation standard factors for wastewater generation. As shown in Table 2, the Project is estimated to result in a domestic water demand of approximately 266,800 gallons per day, which represents an increase of approximately 246,800 gallons per day compared to existing conditions.

To further assist LADWP in the preparation of the Project’s WSA, the Project would also include up to 12 outdoor swimming pools (not associated with a gym or health club). A copy of the Project’s Notice of Preparation is also provided as Attachment B to this letter.
Project Conformance with Existing Zoning and the General Plan
The Project Site is located within the planning boundary of the Hollywood Community Plan (Community Plan), which was adopted in December 1988. The Project Site is designated as Regional Center Commercial by the Community Plan, which corresponds with the C2 (Commercial), C4 (Commercial), RAS4 (Residential/Accessory), R5 (Multiple Dwelling Residential), P (Automobile Parking—Surface and Underground), and PB (Parking Building) zones in the Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC). The Project Site is zoned C4-2D (Commercial, Height District 2 with Development Limitation) and C4-2D-SN (Commercial, Height District 2 with Development Limitation, Signage Supplemental Use District). With some limitations (as identified in the LAMC), the C4 zone permits any land use permitted in the C2 zone, which in turn permits any land use permitted in the C1.5 and C1 zones. The Commercial zones permit a wide array of land uses such as retail stores, offices, hotels, schools, parks, and theaters. The C4 zone also permits any land use permitted in the R4 (Multiple Residential) zone, which includes one-family dwellings, two-family dwellings, apartment houses, multiple dwellings, and home occupations at a maximum density of 108 dwelling units per acre (a minimum lot area of 400 sf per dwelling unit). The C4 zone also permits residential development at the density permitted in the R5 zone (a maximum density of 217 dwelling units per acre, based on a minimum lot area of 200 square feet per dwelling unit) when a mix of commercial and residential uses is being developed, pursuant to LAMC Section 12.22.A.18(a). Height District 2 within the C4 zone does not impose a height limitation and has a maximum Floor Area Ratio (FAR) of 6:1. The Development “D” Limitation in the zoning prefix indicates that development shall not exceed a FAR of 2:1 and 3:1 unless certain approvals are received. The Project would include uses that are compatible with the existing land use designation set forth in the Community Plan. However, the Project requests a height district change from 2D to 2 pursuant to LAMC Section 12.32 in order to allow development of the Project with an FAR of 4.7 averaged across the Project Site. Therefore, while the Project does generally conform to the uses permitted by the General Plan and Community Plan for the Project Site, the Project would generally not conform to the intensity of uses permitted by the LAMC without a land use entitlement to permit deviations from the LAMC.
Approvals required for the Project would include, but may not be limited to:
Zone and Height District change from C4-2D and C4-2D-SN to C4-2 and C4-2-SN;

A Scoping Meeting will be held to receive input from the public as to what areas the EIR should study. No decisions about the Project are made at the Scoping Meeting. The project description, location, and the potential environmental effects identified thus far are set forth in this document. Also included below are the date, time, and location of the Scoping Meeting that will be held in order to solicit input regarding the content of the Draft EIR. The Scoping Meeting is in an open house format. THIS IS NOT THE REQUIRED PUBLIC HEARING FOR MUNICIPAL CODE ENTITLEMENT REQUESTS which will be scheduled after the completion of the EIR. The environmental file is available for review at the Department of City Planning, 200 North Spring Street, Room 750, Los Angeles, CA 90012. A copy of the Initial Study prepared for the Project is not attached but may be viewed online at http://planning.lacity.org by clicking on the “Environmental Review” tab, then “Notice of Preparation & Public Scoping Meetings”. PROJECT LOCATION: The Project Site consists of 29 individual parcels across four City blocks and is generally bounded by Selma Avenue to the north; the Blessed Sacrament Catholic Church and School to the east; Sunset Boulevard to the south; and Highland Avenue to the west. The Project Site includes the Crossroads of the World complex (Crossroads of the World), which is a designated City Cultural-Historic Monument (Monument #134) and also appears on the National Register of Historic Places and the California Register of Historic Resources. Crossroads of the World includes low-density commercial and office uses. Other uses at the Project Site include two residential duplexes; three two-story, multi-family apartment buildings housing a total of 80 dwelling units; one- and two-story structures used for commercial office and retail uses; and surface parking lots. The surrounding area is urbanized and includes historic and modern low- to high-rise buildings occupied by neighborhood-serving commercial uses, tourist and entertainment-related uses, offices, hotels, educational institutions, and single-family and multi-family residences.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: CRE-HAR Crossroads SPV, LLC, the Project Applicant, proposes to redevelop the Project Site with a cohesive, mixed-use development that blends the distinguishing character of Crossroads of the World with a collection of new buildings of modern design and creates an open-air pedestrian district with a mix of shopping, dining, and entertainment uses. The Project would retain, preserve, and rehabilitate Crossroads of the World and remove all other existing uses on the Project Site, including surface parking lots and approximately 86,947 square feet of existing floor area consisting of 84 residential units (including 80 multi-family dwelling units and two duplexes) and commercial/retail and office uses. The Project would integrate Crossroads of the World into a new, mixed-use development that would include eight new mixed-use buildings with residential, hotel, commercial/retail, office, entertainment, and restaurant uses. Upon build-out, the Project (including existing uses to be retained) would include approximately 1,432,000 square feet of floor area consisting of 950 residential units, 308 hotel rooms, approximately 95,000 square feet of office uses, and approximately 185,000 square feet of commercial/retail uses. The proposed floor area ratio (FAR) would be approximately 4.69:1 averaged across the Project Site. Building heights would range from 3 to 32 floors with a maximum building height of approximately 402 feet above grade.
REQUESTED PERMITS/APPROVALS: The City of Los Angeles has the principal responsibility for approving the Project. Approvals required for development of the Project may include, but are not limited to, the following:
(1) Zone and Height District change from C4-2D and C4-2D-SN to C4-2 and C4-2-SN;

Board Items
Proposed Agenda Items 1 POWER: Contract 7652 for 525kV for Single-Phase Shunt Reactors for Various Switching Stations -
Taikai Electric, Inc.
This is a one-time purchase for an amount not to exceed $2,119,360 (budgeted).
This will furnish and deliver four 525-kV, single-phase shunt reactors for various switching stations.
The single-phase shunt reactors will replace failed reactors at McCullough and Marketplace Switching Stations, which were installed in 1973 and 1994, respectively. It is crucial for LADWP’s Power System to consume reactive power when the system is lightly loaded to avoid overvoltage. The three new single-phase, 70-MVAR SRs for McCullough and one new single-phase, 58.3-MVAR for Marketplace will absorb much of the significant reactive power and improve the system voltage and stability during off-peak time.
Competitive bid. A total of 11 bids received. 2 POWER: Contract 7615 for Generators Step-up Transformers for Castaic Power Plant Units 1 and 2 -
Taikai Electric, Inc.
This is a one-time purchase for an amount not to exceed $2,058,550 (budgeted).
BAR for August 2 2016 Board Meeting.docx for Printed Item: 1063 ( Attachment 1 of 1)
Page 34 of 8813
Page |
This will furnish and deliver two generator step-up transformers for Castaic Power Plant Units 1 and 2. The existing transformers at the Castaic Power Plant were installed in 1971. The contract will be used to replace these aging and high-maintenance transformers. Generator step-up transformers are used to step-up the voltage and are essential to supplying power generated from Units 1 and 2 to the power grid. An unplanned outage due to the transformers failing could result in a loss of power generation for up to two years due to the long lead time of procuring transformers of this size.
Competitive bid. A total of 11 bids received. 3 POWER: Contract 541 for 38kV SF6 Insulated Swithgear - OneSource Distributors
Period of one year with two one-year renewal options, for an estimated expenditure of $57,186,756 and an amount not to exceed $71,483,445 (budgeted).
This will furnish and deliver 38kV SF6 Insulated Switchgear. The 38kv SF6 insulated switchgear will be used on LADWP’s power distribution system. The switchgear will be used to protect transformers, clear faults downstream, de-energize equipment (allowing work to be done), switch from a normal to an emergency circuit, and serve as an intertie switch for customers having their own cogeneration plant. These switchgears are easy to operate. This minimizes downtime duration and limits the disruption in service to customers.
Competitive bid. A total of 3 bids received.
4 POWER: Contract 7453 for Concrete Saw Trailers with TriVan Truck Body LLC
Amount not to exceed $399,982 (budgeted), one-time purchase.
This is to purchase five concrete saw trailers. One trailer will replace an aging trailer that will be sold at auction with estimated return on investment of $25,000. Four new trailers will be added to the fleet. The trailers will be used by various LADWP crews within the Power System for cutting concrete and asphalt pavement for repairs or new construction activities where concrete and asphalt pavement cutting is required. These trailers provide for transporting cutting equipment and supplies, storage and equipment operating needs such as a water cooling system for cutting activities and generator power.
Competitive bid with only 1 bid received. LADWP contacted relevant firms that did not submit bids – one stated that the requirements were beyond their capabilities, another stated that they could not get the right pricing and a final stated that they were working on other projects and requirements were not their usual business.
5 POWER: Contract Nos. 7585A and 7585B for Forklifts - Southern California Material Handling and Yale Chase Equipment and Services
One-Time Purchase and a total amount not-to-exceed $1,765,728 (budgeted).
Two Agreements for sixteen forklifts, including service, repair and operator training. Eleven forklifts will replace aging forklifts that have exceeded their service life, and will be sent to salvage for
BAR for August 2 2016 Board Meeting.docx for Printed Item: 1063 ( Attachment 1 of 1)

auction. Five forklifts will be added to the fleet.
These forklifts are used by LADWP personnel for material handling, construction, maintenance, and emergency response activities throughout the service territory.
Competitive bid. A total of 3 bids received.
6 POWER: Amendment 1 to Contract Nos. 626A and 626B for Bare Rental of Tanks, Pumps, Pipes, Fittings, and Accessories - BakerCorp and Rain for Rent, Inc.
Amendment to Contract 626A increases contract limit total by $2,954,886 to $4,500,000; and increases Contract 626B limit total by $2,500,954 to $3,700,000 (budgeted). There is no change to the duration of the contract.
These two Amendments are to add funds to continue services for the rental of tanks, pumps, fittings and accessories on an as-needed basis for the daily construction and maintenance activities of Water and Power System projects.
The additional funds will primarily enable the Water and Power System to continue fulfilling their operational objectives to minimize the discharge of any water generated by construction, operations, and maintenance activities to the Los Angeles storm drain systems by capturing, transporting, filtering, and recycling as much construction water as possible. These efforts require the use of tanks to store water, pumps and pipes to transport the water, and filtration equipment to clean the waters in accordance with current permit requirements and regulations so the water can be transferred to sewer systems, spreading basins, or other uses (i.e. water recycling and irrigation).
Last year there were new requirements to reclaim or re-use construction water and new water well installations. Also in effort to resolve the recent Aliso Canyon gas storage limitations, the Power System used these contracts to process, filter and store diesel for the in-basin generating stations. Therefore, the use of rental tanks, pumps, pipes and accessories has significantly increased and was not anticipated in the original estimate.
7 WATER: Memorandum of Agreement with Council for Watershed Health
No Costs Associated with this Agreement.
The Agreement with LADWP and Council for Watershed Health will build and maintain a working partnership to support and foster sustainable watershed management practices in the City of Los Angeles.
This Agreement was created to facilitate high-level collaboration between LADWP and Council for Watershed Health with the aim of fostering a more sustainable Los Angeles, at no cost to LADWP.
The partnership will leverage the Council’s experience stakeholder engagement while working with government agencies, business partners, and academia to further the long-term sustainability objectives of LADWP’s Water System. Under the Agreement, LADWP and the Council for Watershed Health will work together to identify barriers and opportunities to develop a more robust local water

supply, specifically focusing on increased stormwater capture as well as conservation. Ultimately, this exchange of ideas helps the two partners develop concepts for projects as well as policies, design criteria and guidance to increase the local water supply. It also enables both partners to effectively present proposed projects to stakeholder groups and enlist their support.
8 WATER: Water Supply Assessment for the Crossroads Hollywood Project
The CRE-HAR Crossroads SPV paid $17,000 to cover LADWP’s expenses for preparation of the Water Supply Assessment.
This Water Supply Assessment is for Crossroads Hollywood Project located within the Hollywood Community Plan area. LADWP staff determined the total net additional water demand for Proposed Project is 440 acre-feet per year (AFY) and has concluded this additional water demand can be accommodated. Proposed Project’s base water demand was further reduced by 116 AFY through implementation of the conservation ordinance and code requirements and an additional 10 AFY through the project implementing additional voluntarily conservation measures.
As required by the California State Water Code, the governing body of each public water system is required to make a determination on the Water Supply Assessment for major projects.
9 WATER: Amendment No. 2 to Contract No. 47289-5 for eSTREAM Analysis Model with Watercourse Engineering, Inc.
Increase the not-to exceed amount from $150,000 to $400,000 and extend the term by five years for a cumulative term of eight years.
The Amendment is necessary to allow updates on eSTREAM, which assists in the development of the Mono Basin Operations Plan (MBOP) and the Annual Operations Plan as required by the 2013 Mono Basin Settlement Agreement. The Settlement Agreement includes the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Mono Lake Committee, California Trout and LADWP
City Council Approval Required.

Environmental Quality Act
No approval of funding is required at this time. LADWP is responsible for 40% of the cost associated with the replacement project which is estimated to cost approximately $62,500,000. The project is budgeted for the fiscal years 2016/2017 through 2017/2018.
This resolution is to fulfill LADWP’s responsibilities under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) prior to implementation of the proposed Sylmar Ground Return System Replacement Project.
The proposed Project would replace the existing marine facility of the Sylmar Ground Return System. The replacement facility would be located in the vicinity of the existing Sylmar Ground Return System marine facility in the Santa Monica Bay however, with a different alignment than the existing; it would serve the same purpose and function as the existing facility.
The Project is proposed to increase the reliability, stability of the power generation and delivery system for Southern California; to continue to meet current and projected demand for power in the region; and to help increase the available share of renewable resource energy of the Pacific Direct Current Intertie Transmission Line.
16 Retirement: Resolution Approving the Proposed Plan Amendment to the Water and Power Employees’ Retirement Plan to Eliminate the Reserve for Investment Gains and Losses Account
The proposed Plan amendment is only an administrative change and will not have any financial impact. An actuarial study is not required because there is no impact to cost or benefits.
At its meeting on June 8, 2016, the LADWP’s Retirement Board adopted a Resolution to recommend that the Board of Water and Power Commissioners approve a Plan amendment to eliminate the Reserve for Investment Gains and Losses account.
The maintenance of the Reserve for Investment Gains and Losses account is inconsistent with the Retirement Board’s Investment Policy which provides investment managers full discretion over trading activities. The transfer of this account to the General Reserve account has become an accounting exercise only with the Reserve being maintained at $5.5 million since at least Fiscal Year 2001. The proposed Plan amendment establishes a change in recording of the investment gains and

17 LEGAL: Resolution Approving the Proposed Plan Amendment to the Water and Power Employees’ Retirement Plan to Correct Classes Eligible for Tier 1 Membership
An increase in LADWP’s Normal cost contribution rate of 10.38% of compensation. The additional LADWP Normal cost is approximately 0.43% of the estimated total LADWP contributions. The additional LADWP Normal contribution rate would be expected to continue for each year throughout these employees’ careers.
At its regular meeting on December 11, 2013, the LADWP’s Retirement Board adopted a Resolution to amend the Plan to establish Tier 2 benefits. As part of the Tier 2 provisions, employees in the classification of Utility Pre-Craft Trainee, who were ineligible for membership in the Plan on December 31, 2013, were provided eligibility for membership to Tier 1 rather than Tier 2. The Plan did not include the classes of Construction Electrical Helper and Construction Electrical Mechanic where were authorized to join Tier 1 upon qualification during the settlement discussion in the Romero lawsuit.
The proposed Plan amendment will add two classifications, Construction Electrical Helper and Construction Electrical Mechanic, for eligibility to Tier 1 membership upon qualification.

Ryan and Andre,
I haven't had time, but I might need to revise something on the Crossroads Hollywood WSA OrdinanceSavings. The total Ordinance savings calculation is correct, but the calculation for Ordinance Savingsnot accounted for in 2015 UMWP might need to be revised.
When you work on your calculations, please keep in mind that 2015 UMWP water demand forecastmodel incorporates updated plumbing codes up to 2009 (Ordinance 180822). Between Ordinance180822 and the current Ordinance 184248 effective June 2016, there was a code change by CalGreenin Jan 2014. Ordinance 180822 restricted kitchen faucet (non-commercial such as for kitchen,cafeteria, etc.) flow rate to 2.2 gpm. CalGreen restricted it to 1.8 gpm in Jan 2014. And Ordinance184248 restricted it to 1.5 gpm in Jun 2016. I'm not sure if my Crossroads Ordinance savings calc notaccounted for in 2015 UWMP considered the CalGreen code change. I need to go back to thecalculations later.
Thank you.

Earl,
Even though we use number of rooms to estimate water conservation for hotel rooms, I think we shouldcontinue to ask for # of plumbing fixtures. It gives us an idea on how many of the hotel rooms aresuites. For example, Crossroads Hollywood proposes 308 hotel rooms, and proposed number of toiletsis 328. This tells us it's mostly one room, and some of the rooms are suites. If we ever get a muchhigher number of toilets than number of hotel rooms, we may want to take that into account our hotelwater demand, although that is unlikely. Also, not every hotel room has a kitchen, so we do need the

Since city attorney only needs to sign reso, suggest you get the board letter and reso updated, andinclude latest updates to the WSA document (cleaned up), and get package to the city attorney to startreviewing, at same time, you can continue to final the remaining updates to the WSA.
I'm not sure how much more time you need to get the template updated, otherwise, processing of thisWSA is getting further delayed.

I told her for us to make our Board date, it would require an early review by July 6, but I told her we don’t expect that since we normally should allow two weeks.
I said if she is not able to complete review, we will bump to next Board date.
I put Board item form in your inbox today, late in the game I know, but it has been very difficult to gageprogress on this WSA update.

Ryan,
Can you see if Andrei can go over it with you today? I went over it with him last week, so I assume hehad to work on savings calculations recently. Let me know if you still have questions. Thanks.
I was in all day training yesterday. Sorry for late replies.

Ryan and Andre,
I haven't had time, but I might need to revise something on the Crossroads Hollywood WSA OrdinanceSavings. The total Ordinance savings calculation is correct, but the calculation for Ordinance Savings

not accounted for in 2015 UMWP might need to be revised.
When you work on your calculations, please keep in mind that 2015 UMWP water demand forecastmodel incorporates updated plumbing codes up to 2009 (Ordinance 180822). Between Ordinance180822 and the current Ordinance 184248 effective June 2016, there was a code change by CalGreenin Jan 2014. Ordinance 180822 restricted kitchen faucet (non-commercial such as for kitchen,cafeteria, etc.) flow rate to 2.2 gpm. CalGreen restricted it to 1.8 gpm in Jan 2014. And Ordinance184248 restricted it to 1.5 gpm in Jun 2016. I'm not sure if my Crossroads Ordinance savings calc notaccounted for in 2015 UWMP considered the CalGreen code change. I need to go back to thecalculations later.
Thank you.

I think the note should explain that we would not use fixture counts in most cases but would use for thepurposes below, acknowledging that number of rooms to estimate conservation from hotel rooms.

Earl,
Even though we use number of rooms to estimate water conservation for hotel rooms, I think we shouldcontinue to ask for # of plumbing fixtures. It gives us an idea on how many of the hotel rooms aresuites. For example, Crossroads Hollywood proposes 308 hotel rooms, and proposed number of toiletsis 328. This tells us it's mostly one room, and some of the rooms are suites. If we ever get a muchhigher number of toilets than number of hotel rooms, we may want to take that into account our hotelwater demand, although that is unlikely. Also, not every hotel room has a kitchen, so we do need theproposed number of kitchen faucets to get an idea of how many of the proposed hotel rooms havekitchens.

Subject: RE: WSA - hotel plumbing fixtures
For a small % of suites and kitchens (such as Crossroads), there is no change in how we estimate thebase demand and conservation. We will use the hotel room SGF and use # of rooms for conservationcalc.
In the future if we have a WSA where the hotel room fixture count is much higher than number of hotelrooms, we may want to consider using a higher SGF and higher # of occupancy than 1.5.

Subject: RE: WSA - hotel plumbing fixtures
See below. To clarify my last question sent, have we ever taken this information into consideration inadjusting hotel water demand, and have we ever had a case where there were a high percentage ofsuites, or is the idea to track it in case we ever do come across this case? I just figured that with all ofthe WSAs we have done in the past that we probably would have already come across this case, but Icould be wrong.

Subject: RE: voicemail
Jin,
The only things that I know are that the public is able to comment at the Board meeting and at CityCounsel meeting but not sure if their comments have any impact unless Board and Counsel membersallow them to.
Also, if issue isn’t brought up at City Counsel meeting by Counsel members, I am not sure if a privatecitizen can bring it up (not sure of rules).
On the other hand, it is possible that someone might be able to file a lawsuit, but I don’t have muchknowledge in this area.
I will ask Delon, and we can go from there.

She has a hypothetical question of what if someone is opposed to the Crossroads Hollywood Project.Can that person cause the WSA to be not approved at the Board Meeting, or once it is approved, canthe person appeal for the approval to be reconsidered?
Anyone can attend the board meeting and make comments at during the speaker session, and that mayresult in delaying of the WSA approval, but once the Board approves it, I don’t think someone canappeal…? Does that sound about right, or do you have anything to add? Can someone appeal duringthe 2 week period after the Board approves it?

I got 0.40 gpd/sf for 1020 S. Figueroa Project. That is (net add'l water demand + existing waterdemand) over (indoor sf + parking sf + landscape sf).
I'll work on previous WSA, but we might not have indoor sf info available for all projects.

Is there a way to see in the tracking spreadsheet, over last couple of years, on a unit basis per project,say for example AF or gallon / s.f. (?), how it's trending?
In theory, it should be going downward due to more stricter ordinance + voluntary.
Let me know what you think and would like to have stat for meeting today if possible.

Please disregard 0.40 gpd/sf for 1020 S. Figueroa Project. I used the total year 2016 net add'l waterdemand by mistake. Please see the summary below.
I don't see any trend, and I think it is because gpd/sf would depend on the type of proposed land uses.Some projects have more commercial, and some projects have more residential, etc. I think the middlecolumn (Project Buildout - parking gpd/ Project Buildout - parking sf) would be the most accuratecomparison.

I got 0.40 gpd/sf for 1020 S. Figueroa Project. That is (net add'l water demand + existing waterdemand) over (indoor sf + parking sf + landscape sf).
I'll work on previous WSA, but we might not have indoor sf info available for all projects.
From: Moosbrugger, EarlSent: Tuesday, August 02, 2016 6:59 AMTo: Kwan, Delon; Hwang, JinSubject: RE: wsa tracking spreadsheet
We would need to go through each WSA to obtain sf and add a couple more columns.
Also, we might want to break down indoor vs. outdoor so stats don't get skewed.
Jin, do we always have over-all sf, including hotel and residential?
Thanks
From: Kwan, DelonSent: Tuesday, August 02, 2016 6:19 AMTo: Moosbrugger, Earl; Hwang, JinSubject: wsa tracking spreadsheet
Is there a way to see in the tracking spreadsheet, over last couple of years, on a unit basis per project,say for example AF or gallon / s.f. (?), how it's trending?
In theory, it should be going downward due to more stricter ordinance + voluntary.
Let me know what you think and would like to have stat for meeting today if possible.
Thanks.

Delon,
The Fact Sheet does not have the percentages, so we will send over a revised fact sheet; it will alsohave the last question eliminated.
Rainwater harvesting is only a soft commitment; applicant mentioned use of roof capture to water plantson way down but could not quantify due to early planning phase.
For LID, they will utilize infiltration, and will not have cisterns or other captured water.
No voluntary credit was given for harvesting.

Below is the latest communication between the Crossroads team and us, which was our first timecommenting on the conservation letter (Z:\Water Resources Development\Projects & Tasks\WaterSupply Assessments\WSA Projects\Crossroads Hollywood Project\Water Conservation\CrossroadsHollywood Project - Draft Water Conservation Commitment Letter 2016 05 27.pdf<file:///\\Galaxy\Water%20Resources\Water%20Resources%20Development\Projects%20&%20Tasks\Water%20Supply%20Assessments\WSA%20Projects\Crossroads%20Hollywood%20Project\Water%20Conservation\Crossroads%20Hollywood%20Project%20-%20Draft%20Water%20Conservation%20Commitment%20Letter%202016%2005%2027.pdf>)
I have the draft scope confirmation request letter ready, but I need to first finish calculating the waterdemand to make sure the fixture count provided does not result in higher ordinance savings than thebaseline water demand.

Hello Madonna,
I have the following questions/comments after reviewing the May 27, 2016 version draft waterconservation commitment letter:
- Currently the Energy Star residential dishwasher is 3.5 gallons per cycle (lower than 5.8 gallonsper cycle committed in the draft water conservation commitment letter)
- What is the Irrigation Efficiency of the bubblers for the trees?
- Would the Applicant consider committing to installing and using automatic pool covers?

- How will the water captured by cistern and water treated by primary (on-site) waste watertreatment systems be reused? If any of the water to be captured or treated will displace potable wateruse on the Project, do you have any preliminary estimate on the amount of the water? What phase isthe cistern and waste water treatment design in (conceptual phase, design phase, etc.)?
- Does the plumbing fixture count in the table in the draft water conservation commitment letterinclude plumbing fixtures in the 50,000 sf to be retained? If so, what is the number of fixtures in the50,000 sf to be retained (x toilets, x urinals, etc.)
Alternately: Our estimate shows assuming all 50,000 sf to be converted to be Retail (as opposed to allRestaurant or partly Retail and partly Restaurant) results in a more conservative water demandestimate. Total buildout Retail/Commercial is 101,800 sf (61,800 sf Retail + 40,000 sf Supermarket).50,000 sf out of 101,800 sf is 0.49. Is it acceptable to apply this ratio (1-0.49) to BuildoutRetail/Commercial fixture counts (53 toilets, 2 urinals, 53 bath sink faucets, etc.), to estimate the NetNew Retail/Commercial fixture count to be 27 toilets, 1 urinal, 27 bath sink faucets, etc.?
- What are the toilet and urinal flow rates in the 50,000 sf to be retained (for example, 1.6 gallonsper flush toilets and 1.0 gallon per flush urinals)?If unable to provide flow rate of toilets and urinals current in the 50,000 sf: About what year were theplumbing fixtures in the 50,000 sf last replaced?
- Only 253 residential clothes washers are proposed in 950 residential units. Please confirm thatthe 697 units without clothes washers are expected to purchase and install their own (as opposed totaking laundry out to a coin operated laundromat outside of the Project area).
- For Retail/Commercial, did you mean 2 Residential type Dishwashers (not Commercial typeDishwashers)?
- For Hotel Rooms, did you mean 17 Residential type Clothes type washers (not Commercial typeClothes washers)?
- For Hotel Rooms, did you mean 17 Residential type Dishwashers (not Commercial typeDishwashers)?
Thank you.

BOARD OF WATER AND POWER COMMISSIONERS DEPARTMENT OF WATER AND POWER OF THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES
Room 1555-H, 111 North Hope Street, Los Angeles, CA 90012
AGENDA
TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 2016
10:00 A.M.
Please note that the Board will not vote on any contracts, bid awards, or CEQA items until after 12:30 p.m.
MEL LEVINE, President
WILLIAM W. FUNDERBURK, JR., Vice President
JILL BANKS BARAD, Commissioner
MICHAEL F. FLEMING, Commissioner
CHRISTINA E. NOONAN, Commissioner
BOARD MEETINGS - The Board conducts regular meetings at 10:00 a.m., or as soon thereafter as a quorum is present, on the first and third Tuesdays of the month (or on the next business day when a meeting day falls on a legal holiday) in Room 1555-H of the John Ferraro Building (JFB). Special meetings are held at the date, time, and place specified in the meeting notice. Three members of the five-member Board constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Meetings are recorded. Board meetings are conducted in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Government Code § 54950 et seq. Resources: The Brown Act: Open Meetings for Local Legislative Bodies (Cal. Atty. Gen. 2003) (available online at <www.oag.ca.gov/open-meetings>); Open & Public IV: A Guide to the Ralph M. Brown Act (League of Cal. Cities 2d ed. 2010) (available online at <www.cacities.org> search for "Open Meeting IV"). Board meetings are conducted in accordance with the Rules of the Board of Water and Power Commissioners (available on online at <www.ladwp.com/board>). Board meetings are presided over by the Board President or, in his/her absence, as provided in Board Rule No. 5. The Board upon request will provide reasonable accommodation to the disabled to ensure equal access to its meetings. To ensure availability, such request should be made 72 hours in advance by contacting the Commission Office at (213) 367-1356 during business hours. MEETING AGENDAS - The agenda for meetings contains a brief general description of the items to be considered. The Board may consider an item not on the agenda only in limited circumstances consistent with the Brown Act. The agenda is posted in the front window to the left (as viewed from the street) of the main entrance of the JFB Building, in the JFB lobby, and outside JFB Room 1555-H at least 72 hours before regular meetings and at least 24 hours before special meetings. The agenda is also available online at <www.ladwp.com/board>. The description of any item displayed on the agenda may be changed subsequent to the electronic posting of the agenda or by Board action at the meeting, but only if consistent with the Brown Act.
Agenda 8-2-16.pdf for Printed Item: 1145 ( Attachment 1 of 1)
Page 7326 of 8813
OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE PUBLIC TO ADDRESS THE BOARD - Before reaching those portions of the agenda where Board action is requested, members of the public will be given an opportunity to address the Board on items of interest within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Board (general public comment). Thereafter, members of the public will be given an opportunity to address the Board on any item on the regular agenda prior to or during the Board’s consideration of that item. The same opportunity will be given in open session regarding the closed session agenda prior to commencement of the closed session. Members of the public who wish to speak during general public comment are to complete a speaker card so indicating. Members of the public who wish to speak regarding a particular agenda item or items are to complete a speaker card for each such item. Agendas for special meetings will permit the public to address particular agenda items even where the agenda does not include general public comment. The requirement of public comment on individual items shall not apply if the opportunity for public comment on the item previously had been provided by a Board committee (consisting entirely of Board members at which a quorum was present) to all interested members of the public when it considered the item and the item had not changed substantially since the committee hearing. The Board agenda shall state whether such earlier opportunity for public comment had been duly provided. If the Board President determines that an item has changed substantially since the committee hearing, public comment on the item shall be allowed. (These public comment procedures are in addition to any other hearing requirement specifically imposed by law.) Each speaker is allowed to speak up to two minutes per agenda item, with a five-minute cumulative total to speak on all agenda items. The Presiding Officer shall, however, exercise discretion to determine whether such period of time should be reduced or extended based upon such factors as the length of the agenda or substance of the agenda items, the number of public comment speaker cards submitted, the need for the Board to conclude its business as expeditiously as is practicable, and whether the Board is at risk of losing a quorum, among other factors. Speaker cards will be available at the back of the meeting room. ACCESS BY THE PUBLIC TO DOCUMENTS DISTRIBUTED TO BOARD MEMBERS - Members of the public may inspect documents (other than legally confidential documents) relating to open session items on the agenda distributed to at least a majority of Board members in advance of the meeting or at the meeting. Many of the documents distributed in advance of the meeting will be available online through a link included in the item description on the agenda. Some large documents or documents received too late to link to an agenda item may not be viewable in this manner. Documents (other than confidential documents) distributed during the meeting -- if prepared by the Department, another City department or office, or a Board member – will be made available for inspection during the meeting. Documents may be viewed in the Commission Office (JFB room 1555) prior to or after the meeting. Copies may be obtained in accordance with regular procedures for copying Department records. THE ORDER OF BUSINESS - The order of business for regular meetings typically follows the sequence described below. The Board, however, sometimes considers matters out of order as the Board President may direct. The order of business for special meetings will be determined by the agenda. Thus, some special meeting agendas may follow the organizational format of regular meetings, while other meeting agendas may be limited to but one or several items. 1. Preliminary matters - The Board President will begin the meeting with opening remarks, which are generally followed first by a report by the General Manager and then by comments and requests of members. General public comment will then follow. 2. Policy Discussion and Management reports - In this agenda segment, reports from management and other documents are presented to the Board for information or possible discussion. No action is requested in regard to these items. 3. Closed session agenda - Before going into closed session, the Board will hear from members of the public who have asked to speak on a closed session item. Thereafter, the Board will make any announcements required by law before retiring to closed session. Closed sessions are allowed only for particular subject matters permitted by the Brown Act. The Board agenda will state the provision or provisions of the Brown Act permitting the closed session. After the closed session, the Board will publicly report any action taken in closed session and the vote or abstention thereon of every member present, in accordance with California Government Code § 54957.1. 4. Filed items - In this agenda segment, filed items from management and other documents are presented to the Board for information or possible discussion. No action is requested in regard to these items. 5. Regular agenda -The Regular Agenda consists of items presented for approval, along with Comments from the Neighborhood Council representatives on any Neighborhood Council Resolution or Community Impact Statement filed with the City Clerk which relate to any agenda item listed or being considered on this agenda by the Board. The Board President will announce the items to be considered by the Board. The Board will hear from members of the public who have requested to speak on an item that a speaker card has been submitted. The Board President will ask if any Commissioner or member of the public wishes to speak on one or more of these items. If anyone wishes to speak on an item, it will be called special. The remaining items in this section will be voted on by the Board with one roll call vote. BOARD ACTIONS - The vote of at least three members is required for the Board to act. With some exceptions, Board actions are not final when taken because, under Los Angeles City Charter § 245, the City Council may assert jurisdiction for possible veto of actions of boards and commissions of City government. Board actions thus become final as provided by Charter § 245.

BOARD MEETINGS - The Board conducts regular meetings at 10:00 a.m., or as soon thereafter as a quorum is present, on the first and third Tuesdays of the month (or on the next business day when a meeting day falls on a legal holiday) in Room 1555-H of the John Ferraro Building (JFB). Special meetings are held at the date, time, and place specified in the meeting notice. Three members of the five-member Board constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. Meetings are recorded. Board meetings are conducted in accordance with the Ralph M. Brown Act, California Government Code § 54950 et seq. Resources: The Brown Act: Open Meetings for Local Legislative Bodies (Cal. Atty. Gen. 2003) (available online at <www.oag.ca.gov/open-meetings>); Open & Public IV: A Guide to the Ralph M. Brown Act (League of Cal. Cities 2d ed. 2010) (available online at <www.cacities.org> search for "Open Meeting IV"). Board meetings are conducted in accordance with the Rules of the Board of Water and Power Commissioners (available on online at <www.ladwp.com/board>). Board meetings are presided over by the Board President or, in his/her absence, as provided in Board Rule No. 5. The Board upon request will provide reasonable accommodation to the disabled to ensure equal access to its meetings. To ensure availability, such request should be made 72 hours in advance by contacting the Commission Office at (213) 367-1356 during business hours. MEETING AGENDAS - The agenda for meetings contains a brief general description of the items to be considered. The Board may consider an item not on the agenda only in limited circumstances consistent with the Brown Act. The agenda is posted in the front window to the left (as viewed from the street) of the main entrance of the JFB Building, in the JFB lobby, and outside JFB Room 1555-H at least 72 hours before regular meetings and at least 24 hours before special meetings. The agenda is also available online at <www.ladwp.com/board>. The description of any item displayed on the agenda may be changed subsequent to the electronic posting of the agenda or by Board action at the meeting, but only if consistent with the Brown Act.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE PUBLIC TO ADDRESS THE BOARD - Before reaching those portions of the agenda where Board action is requested, members of the public will be given an opportunity to address the Board on items of interest within the subject matter jurisdiction of the Board (general public comment). Thereafter, members of the public will be given an opportunity to address the Board on any item on the regular agenda prior to or during the Board’s consideration of that item. The same opportunity will be given in open session regarding the closed session agenda prior to commencement of the closed session. Members of the public who wish to speak during general public comment are to complete a speaker card so indicating. Members of the public who wish to speak regarding a particular agenda item or items are to complete a speaker card for each such item. Agendas for special meetings will permit the public to address particular agenda items even where the agenda does not include general public comment. The requirement of public comment on individual items shall not apply if the opportunity for public comment on the item previously had been provided by a Board committee (consisting entirely of Board members at which a quorum was present) to all interested members of the public when it considered the item and the item had not changed substantially since the committee hearing. The Board agenda shall state whether such earlier opportunity for public comment had been duly provided. If the Board President determines that an item has changed substantially since the committee hearing, public comment on the item shall be allowed. (These public comment procedures are in addition to any other hearing requirement specifically imposed by law.) Each speaker is allowed to speak up to two minutes per agenda item, with a five-minute cumulative total to speak on all agenda items. The Presiding Officer shall, however, exercise discretion to determine whether such period of time should be reduced or extended based upon such factors as the length of the agenda or substance of the agenda items, the number of public comment speaker cards submitted, the need for the Board to conclude its business as expeditiously as is practicable, and whether the Board is at risk of losing a quorum, among other factors. Speaker cards will be available at the back of the meeting room. ACCESS BY THE PUBLIC TO DOCUMENTS DISTRIBUTED TO BOARD MEMBERS - Members of the public may inspect documents (other than legally confidential documents) relating to open session items on the agenda distributed to at least a majority of Board members in advance of the meeting or at the meeting. Many of the documents distributed in advance of the meeting will be available online through a link included in the item description on the agenda. Some large documents or documents received too late to link to an agenda item may not be viewable in this manner. Documents (other than confidential documents) distributed during the meeting -- if prepared by the Department, another City department or office, or a Board member – will be made available for inspection during the meeting. Documents may be viewed in the Commission Office (JFB room 1555) prior to or after the meeting. Copies may be obtained in accordance with regular procedures for copying Department records. THE ORDER OF BUSINESS - The order of business for regular meetings typically follows the sequence described below. The Board, however, sometimes considers matters out of order as the Board President may direct. The order of business for special meetings will be determined by the agenda. Thus, some special meeting agendas may follow the organizational format of regular meetings, while other meeting agendas may be limited to but one or several items. 1. Preliminary matters - The Board President will begin the meeting with opening remarks, which are generally followed first by a report by the General Manager and then by comments and requests of members. General public comment will then follow. 2. Policy Discussion and Management reports - In this agenda segment, reports from management and other documents are presented to the Board for information or possible discussion. No action is requested in regard to these items. 3. Closed session agenda - Before going into closed session, the Board will hear from members of the public who have asked to speak on a closed session item. Thereafter, the Board will make any announcements required by law before retiring to closed session. Closed sessions are allowed only for particular subject matters permitted by the Brown Act. The Board agenda will state the provision or provisions of the Brown Act permitting the closed session. After the closed session, the Board will publicly report any action taken in closed session and the vote or abstention thereon of every member present, in accordance with California Government Code § 54957.1. 4. Filed items - In this agenda segment, filed items from management and other documents are presented to the Board for information or possible discussion. No action is requested in regard to these items. 5. Regular agenda -The Regular Agenda consists of items presented for approval, along with Comments from the Neighborhood Council representatives on any Neighborhood Council Resolution or Community Impact Statement filed with the City Clerk which relate to any agenda item listed or being considered on this agenda by the Board. The Board President will announce the items to be considered by the Board. The Board will hear from members of the public who have requested to speak on an item that a speaker card has been submitted. The Board President will ask if any Commissioner or member of the public wishes to speak on one or more of these items. If anyone wishes to speak on an item, it will be called special. The remaining items in this section will be voted on by the Board with one roll call vote. BOARD ACTIONS - The vote of at least three members is required for the Board to act. With some exceptions, Board actions are not final when taken because, under Los Angeles City Charter § 245, the City Council may assert jurisdiction for possible veto of actions of boards and commissions of City government. Board actions thus become final as provided by Charter § 245.

Subject: RE: WSA - hotel plumbing fixtures
I don't remember coming across such case, but I may not have paid too much attention to it. We canlook out for it in the future.
From: Moosbrugger, EarlSent: Wednesday, July 20, 2016 8:51 AMTo: Hwang, JinSubject: RE: WSA - hotel plumbing fixtures
See below. To clarify my last question sent, have we ever taken this information into consideration inadjusting hotel water demand, and have we ever had a case where there were a high percentage ofsuites, or is the idea to track it in case we ever do come across this case? I just figured that with all ofthe WSAs we have done in the past that we probably would have already come across this case, but Icould be wrong.
Thanks
From: Moosbrugger, EarlSent: Wednesday, July 20, 2016 8:47 AMTo: Hwang, JinSubject: RE: WSA - hotel plumbing fixtures
I was only interested in knowing what the value was in determining if a significant number of the hotelrooms were suites and/or had kitchens, since we are tracking it through fixture counts.
Do you know the answer?
From: Hwang, JinSent: Wednesday, July 20, 2016 8:09 AMTo: Moosbrugger, EarlSubject: RE: WSA - hotel plumbing fixtures
I haven't really thought about it, but maybe we can consider adding x% to the hotel room SGF, and usea higher number of occupancy than 1.5 to estimate conservation?

Okay. Can we put a comments for our group in the template concisely explaining this?
I think the note should explain that we would not use fixture counts in most cases but would use for thepurposes below, acknowledging that number of rooms to estimate conservation from hotel rooms.
What do you think?
From: Hwang, JinSent: Tuesday, July 19, 2016 7:21 AMTo: Moosbrugger, EarlSubject: WSA - hotel plumbing fixtures
Earl,
Even though we use number of rooms to estimate water conservation for hotel rooms, I think we shouldcontinue to ask for # of plumbing fixtures. It gives us an idea on how many of the hotel rooms aresuites. For example, Crossroads Hollywood proposes 308 hotel rooms, and proposed number of toiletsis 328. This tells us it's mostly one room, and some of the rooms are suites. If we ever get a muchhigher number of toilets than number of hotel rooms, we may want to take that into account our hotelwater demand, although that is unlikely. Also, not every hotel room has a kitchen, so we do need theproposed number of kitchen faucets to get an idea of how many of the proposed hotel rooms havekitchens.

Jin,
The only things that I know are that the public is able to comment at the Board meeting and at CityCounsel meeting but not sure if their comments have any impact unless Board and Counsel membersallow them to.
Also, if issue isn’t brought up at City Counsel meeting by Counsel members, I am not sure if a privatecitizen can bring it up (not sure of rules).
On the other hand, it is possible that someone might be able to file a lawsuit, but I don’t have muchknowledge in this area.
I will ask Delon, and we can go from there.
Thanks!

She has a hypothetical question of what if someone is opposed to the Crossroads Hollywood Project.Can that person cause the WSA to be not approved at the Board Meeting, or once it is approved, canthe person appeal for the approval to be reconsidered?
Anyone can attend the board meeting and make comments at during the speaker session, and that mayresult in delaying of the WSA approval, but once the Board approves it, I don’t think someone canappeal…? Does that sound about right, or do you have anything to add? Can someone appeal duringthe 2 week period after the Board approves it?

I'll leave up to you to see if further future tracking is needed.
At a rolled up level, can't really see trends, not sure about a residential / commercial levels (postordinance & voluntary savings)?
From: Hwang, JinSent: Tuesday, August 02, 2016 9:27 AMTo: Kwan, Delon; Moosbrugger, EarlSubject: RE: wsa tracking spreadsheet
Correct. Middle column excludes parking demand and parking sf.

Middle column is excluding parking structure demands?
From: Hwang, JinSent: Tuesday, August 02, 2016 9:10 AMTo: Moosbrugger, Earl; Kwan, DelonSubject: RE: wsa tracking spreadsheet
Please disregard 0.40 gpd/sf for 1020 S. Figueroa Project. I used the total year 2016 net add'l waterdemand by mistake. Please see the summary below.
I don't see any trend, and I think it is because gpd/sf would depend on the type of proposed land uses.Some projects have more commercial, and some projects have more residential, etc. I think the middlecolumn (Project Buildout - parking gpd/ Project Buildout - parking sf) would be the most accuratecomparison.

I got 0.40 gpd/sf for 1020 S. Figueroa Project. That is (net add'l water demand + existing waterdemand) over (indoor sf + parking sf + landscape sf).
I'll work on previous WSA, but we might not have indoor sf info available for all projects.
From: Moosbrugger, EarlSent: Tuesday, August 02, 2016 6:59 AMTo: Kwan, Delon; Hwang, JinSubject: RE: wsa tracking spreadsheet
We would need to go through each WSA to obtain sf and add a couple more columns.
Also, we might want to break down indoor vs. outdoor so stats don't get skewed.
Jin, do we always have over-all sf, including hotel and residential?
Thanks
From: Kwan, DelonSent: Tuesday, August 02, 2016 6:19 AMTo: Moosbrugger, Earl; Hwang, JinSubject: wsa tracking spreadsheet
Is there a way to see in the tracking spreadsheet, over last couple of years, on a unit basis per project,say for example AF or gallon / s.f. (?), how it's trending?
In theory, it should be going downward due to more stricter ordinance + voluntary.
Let me know what you think and would like to have stat for meeting today if possible.
Thanks.

And also let me know why you think that pump station data is adequate, etc. There are some missing data and energy data are only provided monthly, not hourly like flowdata, but overall, I think pump station data is adequate.
Thanks.

Was there a pump station data set that you found yesterday following our discussion that we can look atand plot how EI varies with flow over a certain period?
For Santa Ynez PS, I used the existing monthly energy data and hourly flow data converted to monthlyto calculate the monthly EI. Then plotted a graph showing Flow vs. EI, and found no apparent pattern.

In addition, was there a diagram in the report or past presentation that you found that can illustrate theconcern / deficiency we had with their modeling analyses on accounting for flow / conserved waterOn UC Davis' LADWP network map, I think we should add Energy to each Pump Station and addassumed Flow in each pressure zone. Then transfer the assumed Flow and EI info to UC Davis' mapshowing yellow to red pressure zones.
If you have questions or need clarification, please see me.
I'll need to reschedule briefing with Dave/Penny, and need to have better idea when presentation will beready.

And also let me know why you think that pump station data is adequate, etc.There are 7 pump stations each with only 1 meter for multiple pumps feeding different pressure zones.For each of 6 of these Pump Stations, we provided 1 set of energy data and 2 different sets of flowdata. I'm not sure how UC Davis apportion the energy to pumps feeding different pressure zones. ForLaurel Canyon (1096), we provided high energy and really low flow data. I think this energy data is forboth pumps, not just for Laurel Canyon feeding 1096 zone. For Laurel Canyon (1424), we provided lowenergy and high flow. This energy is probably not pumping energy. Instead of distributing the highenergy for both pumps, It seems like UC Davis used those provided data for each pump to arrive athigh EI for Laurel Canyon (1096) and low EI for Laurel Canyon (1424).
We should either install energy meters for each pump feeding different pressure zones at these pumpstations, or apportion energy proportionate to the flow, but I'm not sure how accurate the latter wouldbe.
Thanks.

And also let me know why you think that pump station data is adequate, etc.There are 7 pump stations each with only 1 meter for multiple pumps feeding different pressure zones.For each of 6 of these Pump Stations, we provided 1 set of energy data and 2 different sets of flowdata. I'm not sure how UC Davis apportion the energy to pumps feeding different pressure zones. ForLaurel Canyon (1096), we provided high energy and really low flow data. I think this energy data is forboth pumps, not just for Laurel Canyon feeding 1096 zone. For Laurel Canyon (1424), we provided lowenergy and high flow. This energy is probably not pumping energy. Instead of distributing the highenergy for both pumps, It seems like UC Davis used those provided data for each pump to arrive athigh EI for Laurel Canyon (1096) and low EI for Laurel Canyon (1424).
We should either install energy meters for each pump feeding different pressure zones at these pumpstations, or apportion energy proportionate to the flow, but I'm not sure how accurate the latter wouldbe.
Thanks.

Was there a pump station data set that you found yesterday following our discussion that we can look atand plot how EI varies with flow over a certain period?
For Santa Ynez PS, I used the existing monthly energy data and hourly flow data converted to monthlyto calculate the monthly EI. Then plotted a graph showing Flow vs. EI, and found no apparent pattern.

OK. I'll pick another year at Santa Ynez and plot the graph.
On the LADWP Network map, we can point out that there are 7 PSs with 1 energy meter feeding 2different zones.
On the cumulative EI map, we can point out that the map is color coded for low to high EI only, but thatit needs to be color coded for the energy use in each zone for potential energy savings.
From: Kwan, DelonSent: Friday, August 26, 2016 12:20 PMTo: Hwang, Jin; Moosbrugger, EarlSubject: RE: Weekly Work Activity Report
OK thanks.
Maybe can look at another period, color code it, and can see if any variability over time.
Regarding diagram attachment, how does it illustrate deficiency in UC Davis analyses with flow andcalc methodology with conserved water opportunity? Missing your explanation.
From: Hwang, JinSent: Friday, August 26, 2016 12:05 PMTo: Kwan, Delon; Moosbrugger, EarlSubject: RE: Weekly Work Activity Report
Out of the 10 highest EI Pump Stations, we eliminated the PSs with only 1 meter feeding 2 pressurezones, PS with GW extraction, and PS located at the end of the Distribution system. After that we wereleft with only Santa Ynez (~6,500 AFY) and Skyline (~1,000 AFY), and I chose the one with higher flow.
I didn't observe any anomaly with Santa Ynez data set other than no energy data for a month andenergy data being lumped for a couple months after that, which is not uncommon. For those months, Ijust assumed half of the energy is for 1 month, and the other half for the next month.
On the LADWP Network map, for each PS, show kWh and AF, then where it shows the flow path, showDelta EI, and for the pressure zone, show the cumulative EI, and so on.
On the cumulative EI map, for each pressure zone, not only show the cumulative EI, but also the Flow,and probably the resulting Energy use in each zone also.

We should either install energy meters for each pump feeding different pressure zones at these pumpstations, or apportion energy proportionate to the flow, but I'm not sure how accurate the latter wouldbe.
Thanks.

Was there a pump station data set that you found yesterday following our discussion that we can look atand plot how EI varies with flow over a certain period?
For Santa Ynez PS, I used the existing monthly energy data and hourly flow data converted to monthlyto calculate the monthly EI. Then plotted a graph showing Flow vs. EI, and found no apparent pattern.

Out of the 10 highest EI Pump Stations, we eliminated the PSs with only 1 meter feeding 2 pressurezones, PS with GW extraction, and PS located at the end of the Distribution system. After that we wereleft with only Santa Ynez (~6,500 AFY) and Skyline (~1,000 AFY), and I chose the one with higher flow.
I didn't observe any anomaly with Santa Ynez data set other than no energy data for a month andenergy data being lumped for a couple months after that, which is not uncommon. For those months, Ijust assumed half of the energy is for 1 month, and the other half for the next month.
On the LADWP Network map, for each PS, show kWh and AF, then where it shows the flow path, showDelta EI, and for the pressure zone, show the cumulative EI, and so on.
On the cumulative EI map, for each pressure zone, not only show the cumulative EI, but also the Flow,and probably the resulting Energy use in each zone also.

There is an ordinance that has not been adopted that will make current water efficiency requirementmore stringent. Please see page 7 of the attached form. For example, currently showerheadrequirement is max of 2 gpm, and is proposed to be reduced to 1.8 gpm.
I’ll check often to see when it gets approved.

What is theeffective date of this ruling? For projects submitted or permitted prior to the effective date, canpreviously allowed fixtures be installed? When will LADBS be requiring these fixtures? Will they berequired in all types of installations (new, altered existing buildings)? Does this ruling constitute amandatory retrofit of existing fixtures? Does this have any impact on the definition of compliant fixturesunder SB407?

OK. I’ll pick another year at Santa Ynez and plot the graph.
On the LADWP Network map, we can point out that there are 7 PSs with 1 energy meter feeding 2different zones.
On the cumulative EI map, we can point out that the map is color coded for low to high EI only, but thatit needs to be color coded for the energy use in each zone for potential energy savings.

I think this energy data is forboth pumps, not just for Laurel Canyon feeding 1096 zone. For Laurel Canyon (1424), we provided lowenergy and high flow. This energy is probably not pumping energy. Instead of distributing the highenergy for both pumps, It seems like UC Davis used those provided data for each pump to arrive athigh EI for Laurel Canyon (1096) and low EI for Laurel Canyon (1424).
We should either install energy meters for each pump feeding different pressure zones at these pumpstations, or apportion energy proportionate to the flow, but I’m not sure how accurate the latter wouldbe.
Thanks.

OK. I'll pick another year at Santa Ynez and plot the graph.
On the LADWP Network map, we can point out that there are 7 PSs with 1 energy meter feeding 2different zones.
On the cumulative EI map, we can point out that the map is color coded for low to high EI only, but thatit needs to be color coded for the energy use in each zone for potential energy savings.
From: Kwan, DelonSent: Friday, August 26, 2016 12:20 PMTo: Hwang, Jin; Moosbrugger, EarlSubject: RE: Weekly Work Activity Report
OK thanks.
Maybe can look at another period, color code it, and can see if any variability over time.
Regarding diagram attachment, how does it illustrate deficiency in UC Davis analyses with flow andcalc methodology with conserved water opportunity? Missing your explanation.

Out of the 10 highest EI Pump Stations, we eliminated the PSs with only 1 meter feeding 2 pressurezones, PS with GW extraction, and PS located at the end of the Distribution system. After that we wereleft with only Santa Ynez (~6,500 AFY) and Skyline (~1,000 AFY), and I chose the one with higher flow.
I didn't observe any anomaly with Santa Ynez data set other than no energy data for a month andenergy data being lumped for a couple months after that, which is not uncommon. For those months, Ijust assumed half of the energy is for 1 month, and the other half for the next month.
On the LADWP Network map, for each PS, show kWh and AF, then where it shows the flow path, showDelta EI, and for the pressure zone, show the cumulative EI, and so on.
On the cumulative EI map, for each pressure zone, not only show the cumulative EI, but also the Flow,and probably the resulting Energy use in each zone also.

What is theeffective date of this ruling? For projects submitted or permitted prior to the effective date, canpreviously allowed fixtures be installed? When will LADBS be requiring these fixtures? Will they berequired in all types of installations (new, altered existing buildings)? Does this ruling constitute amandatory retrofit of existing fixtures?

There is an ordinance that has not been adopted that will make current water efficiency requirementmore stringent. Please see page 7 of the attached form. For example, currently showerheadrequirement is max of 2 gpm, and is proposed to be reduced to 1.8 gpm.
I’ll check often to see when it gets approved.

Hello Jim,
I have a note that the CEC’s new regulations on indoor plumbing fixture/appliances will go into effect onJan 1, 2016. (*there may be a 180 day delay for implementation like the codes.)
Can you please confirm that the 1.2 gpm residential lavatory faucet went into effect on 1/1/16? Should Imake this change to the Green Building Tips and Water Conservation info sheet (attached)? We arecurrently working on a WSA, and would like to distribute the most updated information to the developer.

What is theeffective date of this ruling? For projects submitted or permitted prior to the effective date, canpreviously allowed fixtures be installed? When will LADBS be requiring these fixtures? Will they berequired in all types of installations (new, altered existing buildings)? Does this ruling constitute amandatory retrofit of existing fixtures? Does this have any impact on the definition of compliant fixturesunder SB407?

Jin,
Correction, for the actual C.C. Letter, update new ordinance values, but do not put quote in parenthesisbelow.
I mistakenly thought you were referring to the table that the conservation specialist, Mr. Estrada, handsout.
We will need to make sure we update that table or ask Mr. Estrada if he has an updated version.

Earl,
Here is the summary of reviewing the updated MWELO.
Previously when I reviewed the emergency standard adoptions, ETAF (ET Adjustment Factor) for residential and non-residential was both 0.55, and ETAF for public school was 0.65.
The final code shows ETAF for residential is 0.55, ETAF for non-residential (including commercial, institutional, industrial, and public) is 0.45.
The equation for MAWA is ET0 (0.62)[(ETAF x LA) + ((1-ETAF) x SLA))]
SLA (Special Landscaped Area) includes recreational area.
IE (Irrigation Efficiency) is now 0.75 for overhead spray devices, and 0.81 for drip.
PF (Plant Factor) definition is revised by including Very Low plant factor (0 to 0.1), and revising Low PF to 0.1 to 0.3.
The final code can be found here.

Emergency Regulations for Residential, Non-Residential, Health Facilities, and Public School/Community Colleges constructions
· In response to Governor Brown's Executive Order B-29-15 (April1, 2015), California Building Standards Commission approved emergency regulations in the 2013 CA Green Building Standards Code.
· Applies to buildings for which building permits have been submitted on or after June 1, 2015, until future revision of MWELO by DWR
· ETAF has been reduced from previously set 0.7 to a lower factor. ETAF is Evapotranspiration Adjustment Factor that, when applied to reference evapotranspiration (ETo), adjusts for plant factors and irrigation efficiency, two major influences upon the amount of water that needs to be applied to the landscape.
· Additional Water Allowance for SLA (Special Landscape Areas) has been increased from previously set 0.3 to a higher factor. SLA is landscape area decided solely to edible plants, areas irrigated with RW, water features using RW and areas dedicated to active play such as parks and sports fields.
· Original: MAWA = ET0 (0.62)[(0.7 x LA) + 0.3 x SLA)] Note: LA = total landscape area, including SLA
· Alternate methods to reduce outdoor potable water use in landscape area are captured rainwater, recycled water, graywater, and reclaimed water.
Ø Use of potable water shall be authorized where necessary to address an immediate health and safety need or to comply with a term or condition in a permit issued by a state or federal agency
Residential constructions
· For potable water use
· Revised ETAF = 0.55
· Revised Add'l Water Allowance for SLA = 0.45
· Revised: MAWA = ET0 (0.62)[(0.55 x LA) + 0.45 x SLA)]
· 0.7 to 0.55 is approximately 21% reduction in MAWA.
Non-Residential and Health Facilities constructions
RE: REVISED LANDSCAPE METHODOLOGY FOR WSAs (1).msg <extracted> for Printed Item: 1252 ( Attachment 1 of 1)
Page 7847 of 8813
· For landscape areas greater or equal to 2,500 sf
Ø Revised ETAF = 0.55
Ø Revised Add'l Water Allowance for SLA = 0.45
Ø Revised: MAWA = ET0 (0.62)[(0.55 x LA) + 0.45 x SLA)]
Ø 0.7 to 0.55 is approximately 21% reduction in MAWA.
· For new construction or building addition/alteration, cumulative landscape area at least 1,000 sf but not more than 2,500 sf
Ø Install weather or soil moisture-based controllers
· For new construction or building addition/alteration, landscape area at least 1,000 sf but not more than 5,000 sf
Ø Install separate submeters
· For new water service, landscape area at least 500 sf but not more than 1,000 sf (Voluntary: not mandatory unless adopted by City)
Ø Install separate meters or submeters (for potable or non-potable)
Public School/Community Colleges constructions
· Applies to newly constructed buildings and facilities on new or existing sites
· For landscape areas greater or equal to 2,500 sf using potable water
Ø Revised ETAF = 0.65
Ø Revised Add'l Water Allowance for SLA = 0.35
Ø Revised: MAWA = ET0 (0.62)[(0.65 x LA) + 0.35 x SLA)]
Ø 0.7 to 0.65 is approximately 7% reduction in MAWA.
· For new construction or building addition/alteration, cumulative landscape area at least 1,000 sf but not more than 2,500 sf
Ø Install weather or soil moisture-based controllers
· For new construction or building addition/alteration, landscape area at least 1,000 sf but not more than 5,000 sf

To All,
Due to emergency revision to CalGreen Standards approved last Friday, going forward, please use new MAWA methodology for current and future WSAs, including Cumulus.
If you need to discuss, please let me know.
Here is a summary of facts about provision (Thanks for handling Jin!):
Emergency Regulations for New Residential constructions (also applies to non-res, etc. - see below bullets)
· In response to Governor Brown's Executive Order B-29-15 (April1, 2015), California Building Standards Commission approved emergency regulations in the 2013 CA Green Building Standards Code.
· Applies to all landscaped areas for residential buildings for which building permits have been submitted on or after June 1, 2015, until future revision of MWELO by DWR.

Please see comments.ThanksFrom: Kwan, DelonSent: Tuesday, October 27, 2015 6:31 AMTo: Moosbrugger, EarlSubject: RE: Weekly Update 151022
A couple of items if you can give me latest status:
· Move forward with issuing task order for proposal for Greg's GW strategic planI took a brief look at Task Order 2 but haven't made time to comment yet.
· Status of UC Davis prelimin results?Originally, the idea for preliminary EI results was for Downey presentation and not part of contract.Kendra stated that prelim results were individual values for nodes, and she did show some minor detailin her presentation. When I asked for update on preliminary EI value, she asked if I would like to have her pursue andsubmit preliminary EI value (for total system). I spoke with Val A. since he is the contract administrator and because the original request was foran outside-of-contract request. They both decided not to pursue it as they are closing in the their milestones and preliminary valuewould be the same as the one they are working on now. She said they are on track but no specific date was given.
· Remaining updates still needed for your UWMP draft chaptersVal N. is looking into that today.In short, we are waiting for update flow projections from Simon.Still need to confirm Carbon Factor for MWD facilities (are they using eGRID CMAX value or customvalueVal found some mistakes in his treatment calcs.He should complete today and I will go over with him so we should have answer in next day or so.
· Send me latest link to updated draft internal w/e nexus reportI will forward you a link momentarily.There are two documents: The W/E Nexus report, and the documentation of W/E Nexus which isinternal and provides more details.Thanks.
