He did state that communication could be improved. FINANCE DIVISION MANAGER’S REPORT The Board reviewed a written report from Mr. Wong, including financial statements for the year ended November 2016. Questions were raised in regards to the $136K Sept-Oct invoice from AECOM for support on the Lost Creek Dam project. A breakdown of costs will be provided during the January board meeting.
South Feather Relicensing Consulting Services HDR submitted an invoice for relicensing consulting services in the amount of $1,843.76 for services rendered during the period of September 25, 2016 through October 29, 2016. Including this payment, the total amount paid to HDR for these services is $5,143,954. The budget balance remaining under this agreement is $5,692. Water Rights State Water Resources Control Board water rights fees for the period of 7/1/16-6/30/17 in the total amount of $82,913.31 were paid with November 30, 2016 check #049770 to the State Board of Equalization. Consistent with the remittances made in prior years, the payment was made under protest along with a petition for reconsideration. The total sum the Agency has paid for these assessments (beginning July 1, 2003) is $774,650.28. ADP Agency payroll is processed by ADP. ADP has selected South Feather for an upgrade to its latest version of ADP Workforce Now. An initial meeting occurred on December 13 with an ADP implementation specialist, Accounting Specialist I Cheri Richter, Art Martinez and me. The upgrade is scheduled for March, 2017. Finance Division Employee Retirement Account Technician II, Debbie Long, retires from the Agency this month. Debbie first started working with South Feather as a temporary clerk/receptionist in May, 2012. Mrs. Long’s pleasant, positive spirit and presence will be missed in the Division and throughout the Agency. Her service to the public and as a front counter representative of the Agency is much appreciated. POWER DIVISION MANAGER’S REPORT The Power Division Summary Report for November 2016, reservoir storage charts, and Forbestown precipitation chart are attached. The total precipitation measured this season at Forbestown on December 13 is 29.5 inches. The 2011-2015 average rainfall for this period is 16.3 inches. The 2016-2017 precipitation year started on July 1. Water releases from Little Grass Valley Reservoir (LGVR) into Sly Creek Reservoir (SCR) were maintained at 6 to 10 CFS over the past four-week period. Releases from LGVR are being controlled to provide minimum fish flows, optimize generation efficiency at Sly Creek Powerhouse, and avoid spillage of water around the powerhouses. The Slate Creek tunnel flow into Sly Creek Reservoir has been running at approximately 250 CFS from December 9 to 13, and the tunnel was closed on December 13.
Powerhouse availability and performance for November, 2016, is summarized in the table below:
Powerhouse Capacity MW
Availability Percent
Generation Hrs. Full Load (Note 1)
Generation Hrs. Partial Load (Note 1)
Woodleaf 60.0 100 217 110 Forbestown 37.5 100 212 117 Kelly Ridge 11.0 100 364 126 Sly Creek 13.0 43.8 1 207
Note 1: November 2016 has a total of 721 calendar hours. Regulatory Compliance Sly Creek Dam Seismic Stability Evaluation TERRA/GeoPentech completed a written report to assess the seismic stability of the Sly Creek Dam. The seismic analysis was required by FERC, following the mechanically stabilized embankment wall modifications and raising of the Dam crest in 2012. The report is currently under review by the Agency, and will be transmitted to FERC later this month. Powerhouse Electrical Modeling and Analyses The Agency is coordinating electrical modeling and analyses to be performed in 2017 at the Forbestown and Kelly Ridge Powerhouses. The work will be performed by a contractor specializing in the engineering and testing of power systems and generation equipment. Modeling, data collection, and analyses are required by the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC) to be completed every five years on the Agency’s four hydro-generation units. The data collected will be submitted to WECC, and used in their power grid simulations to assess region-wide operational performance and system stability. Projects Kelly Ridge Powerhouse Turbine Shutoff Valve Replacement On December 7 and 8, HDR Engineering and Southwest Valve personnel performed turbine shutoff valve (TSV) closure testing, with empty and filled penstock conditions. The objective of the testing was to determine if adjustments could be performed in the field to resolve the TSV closure problem, and assist the Agency in identifying the root cause of the current problem. Several attempts were made to close the TSV using different testing fixtures; however, the TSV did not fully close during any test, and a root cause of the problem was not identified. The Agency is considering options to procure a new TSV, and remove the DaeHan (DHC) TSV from service.
Maintenance Sly Creek Powerhouse Annual Maintenance Outage The Sly Creek Powerhouse annual maintenance outage began on November 14, and was completed on December 2. During the outage, Agency maintenance personnel performed routine inspections and service of the generator, turbine, main circuit breaker, generator step-up transformer, and other ancillary plant equipment. PG&E 115kV Transmission Line Pole Replacement PG&E is scheduled to perform the last phase of their 115kV Transmission Line Pole Replacement Project from December 14 to 18, which will require the shutdown of Sly Creek, Woodleaf, and Forbestown powerhouses. The project involves removal of existing faulty wood poles and installation of new replacement steel poles for the transmission system that connects the three powerhouses to the PG&E power system. Forbestown Powerhouse Generator Step-up Main Transformer On December 1, an oil leak was discovered at the Forbestown powerhouse generator step-up main transformer, and the powerhouse was immediately removed from service. Closer inspections by Agency personnel revealed that dielectric oil was leaking from the transformer phase-C primary insulating bushing. The bushings are attached to the transformer and provide connection between the switchyard buswork and transformer internal windings. The oil leak has been fully contained and Agency personnel have retained a contractor to assist with installing new gaskets on the affected bushing, or to replace it with serviceable parts. A new set of transformer primary bushings will be installed during the next scheduled maintenance outage. Other Maintenance and Repair Projects (through 11/28)

Note 1: November 2016 has a total of 721 calendar hours. GENERAL MANAGER'S REPORT State Water Board As part of its public health mission, the State Water Resources Control Board is encouraging schools statewide to have their drinking water tested for lead. Pursuant to the amended permit, all community water systems in California are required to test the schools in their service area for lead if sampling is requested. Under this new permit amendment, school officials can request in writing that their water system sample their school for lead. Once a request has been filed, the community water system has 60 days to make contact with the school to schedule a meeting to develop a sampling plan and conduct sampling at the school. The public water system is responsible for all the costs associated with collecting samples, analysis and reporting the results to the Division of Drinking Water. Community Choice Aggregation Brian Ring has been selected as the new assistant chief administrative officer for Butte County replacing Jennifer McCarthy. A meeting was held December 15th to review applications for County consultants to determine if alternative energy supply contracts would be beneficial. SFWPA will follow status updates if there is movement in forming a CCA organization in the community.
IBEW Employee Representative Change Effective January 2, 2017, Business Representative Charley Souders will assume the duties and responsibilities of serving IBEW members employed at the South Feather Water and Power Agency (Water and Hydro units) currently represented by Business Representative Sheila Lawton. Request for New Water Service During the November board meeting there was discussion in regards to the process for request of new water service. The detailed analysis of current policy and opportunity for enhancement will be presented at the January board meeting. Initial review indicates a documented seven step application process for requesting new service. The agency team will evaluate if improvements can be made for ease of processing and communicating with customers. California Water Conservation – Executive Order B-37-16 In an attempt to bolster California’s climate and drought resilience, Governor Brown issued an executive order (EO) on May 9, 2016. The EO tasks State agencies with establishing a long-term framework for water conservation and drought planning. This includes the following:
• Permanent monthly water use reporting • New urban water use targets • Reducing system leaks • Eliminating wasteful practices • Strengthening urban drought contingency plans • Improving agricultural water management and drought plans
The EO also tasked various state agencies with preparing a report outlining new conservation measures to implement the directives of the EO. That report has now been released in draft form and is being circulated for public comment. Once the report is finalized, the conservation measures recommended by the report will be implemented through new regulations and legislation that we expect will be introduced in early 2017. These new conservation mandates, as currently conceived, will be challenging for SFWPA based on our existing water rights and facilities and rural customer base with large lots and low population density. The water efficiency targets are relatively easily implementable in areas of high population densities with small land lots. These urban areas typically do not have senior water rights and facilities designed for those senior water rights like SFWPA. As an example, the report calls for establishment of a water budget for all suppliers, including SFWPA, of 55 gallons per person per day for indoor use and an outdoor budget that will be based on climatic zone and landscaped area. This budget will apply to all suppliers statewide regardless of water right priority, storage facilities, or recognition of each supplier’s unique characteristics. Suppliers with the most senior water rights and little exposure to drought given prior investment in storage facilities, such as SFWPA, will be forced to deliver no more water than other suppliers without senior water rights or prior investment in storage facilities. Counsel and SFWPA staff are working with other affected suppliers and ACWA in an effort to shape the ultimate conservation mandates. SFWPA will be submitting a letter commenting on the report. We anticipate this topic will be a future agenda item in 2017.
DIRECTORS’ REPORTS Director Moreland shared his participation in a Chico State presentation on conserving water and desire to see more emphasis placed on water storage. Director Hickman supported Director Moreland’s efforts towards effecting change and commended him for his participation. Director Starr communicated that he is looking forward to 2017 and the agency’s focus on active projects. Director Hickman stated that he looks forward to seeing an improved water service policy in the future. BUSINESS M/S/C (Lodigiani/Edwards) the board rejected a personal injury claim filed by Kathleen Martin, as recommended by the ACWA Joint Power Insurance authority, the Agency’s insurance provider. South Feather Power Project- Management Plan Development The board challenged if approval of HDR consulting support for the development plans were required to obtain the new FERC license for the South Feather Power Project was necessary. The item was tabled for future discussion and consideration. AECOM – 2017 Budget Proposal, Lost Creek Dam Project Approval of Engineering Design Support / Construction Engineering and Inspection Services on the Lost Creek Dam Improvement Project. No action was taken and this item was tabled for a future meeting.

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Steve Wong, Finance Division Manager DATE: January 18, 2017 RE: General Information (regarding matters not scheduled on the agenda) 1/24/17 Board of Directors Meeting South Feather Relicensing Consulting Services No invoices have been submitted this month by HDR for relicensing consulting services. Total payments to HDR for relicensing services rendered through October 29, 2016 amount to $5,143,954. The budget balance remaining under this agreement is $5,692. CalPERS The day after the Agency’s last regular Board meeting (December 20, 2016), CalPERS announced adoption of its plan to lower the discount rate from 7.5% to 7.375% in 2018-19, 7.25% in 2019-20 and 7.0% in 2020-21. The announcement also indicated a system-wide funding level of 68 percent and an annual cash flow shortfall of five billion dollars. While the system-wide circumstances will probably require an increase in contributions from the Agency, for a variety of reasons, historically the direct impact to the Agency has been less severe than that experienced by other participants. The most recent CalPERS actuarial valuation, calculated a funded ratio of 85.5 percent for the Agency. Consumption Reports In 2016 it was decided to print the consumption reports only once a year. The reports for the past ten years, through December, 2016 are included this month for your review. If there are no objections, these reports will continue to be printed and included in the Board package every January. Finance Division New Employee Jennifer Lacey officially joined the Finance Division team on Tuesday, January 17, 2017 as an Account Technician replacing recently retired Account Technician Debbie Long. Jenny comes to the Agency with eighteen years of office management experience, primarily with dental practices in Butte County. In her brief time with the Agency she has exhibited an enthusiastic, can-do attitude that has won over both her new co-workers and the public. Form 700 The California Fair Political Practices Commission Form 700, Statement of Economic Interests, will be distributed to Board members at today’s meeting. The due date for returning the completed forms to me is April 3, 2017.

Notice to applicant: Fees and charges shown above are estimates only, effective for 30 days from the date shown above.
Signature Date By signing this application, I agree to abide by the Agency's Rules & Regulations governing water service including payments of monthly water service bills in a timely
manner. I am also aware that South Feather Water and Power Agency does not guarantee that the size of meter I have requested will satisfy the flow requirements
necessary for fire suppression systems that may be a requirement of the building permit issued by the City or County Building Department for my residence.
Exhibit A: Explanation of Fees
New Account Fee: SFWPA charges an administrative fee to process the application and paperwork
required to create a new account.
System Capacity Charge: Payment of a System Capacity Charge will be required prior to the installation of
a domestic water service for a parcel that has not previously been served and for
which the System Capacity Charge has not previously been paid. The amount of
the System Capacity Charge is dependent on the size of meter requested. These
funds are placed in a restricted fund and are used for domestic system capacity
expansion purposes.
Service Installation Estimate: The fees required to physically install the pipeline and all associated equipment
required for a water service. This installation cost may include the meter and
backflow costs if not designated.
Backflow Installation Estimate: An anti-backflow device is required on any new installation or on any existing
installation which has been off for more than sixty days. This device prevents
water flowing from the customer’s side of the meter into the agency’s distribution
systems.
Meter/Backflow Set Fee: The cost to install just the meter and backflow set if not included within the
Service Installation estimate. These fees are set in SFWPA’s Rules and
Regulations and do increase in accordance with the CPI (cost of living index).
Annexation Processing (SFWPA): If a parcel is not already within the Agency’s boundaries, annexation to SFWPA’s
district is required by the State of California before service can be installed. There
are four components that must be completed to begin the annexation
process.These components are: LAFCo application, a California Environmental
Quality Act Application, the legal description of the parcel(s) to be served and a
map satisfying the requirements of the State Board of Equalization and LAFCo.
SFWPA has contracted with a local engineering firm that will prepare the needed
components for you for the amount shown. If you feel you have resources that can
prepare the needed documents or prefer to work with another engineering firm
you can have the documents prepared on your own and not use this service.
County Clerk Post Fee: The documents must be filed with the County of Butte. This fee reflects Butte
County’s filing/posting fees.
LAFCO Annexation and Processing Fee: The Butte County Local Agency Formation Commission (LAFCo) is a state
mandated local agency that oversees boundary changes to cities and special
districts such as SFWPA. Once the documents listed above are created they are
submitted to LAFCo. This agency has its own annexation and processing fees
which are out of the control of SFWPA.
LAFCo Sphere-of-Influence Fee: LAFCo’s Sphere of Influence fee is set in their regulations. The fees are based on
the number of acres and the development potential of the property.
State Board of Equalization Fee: The California State Board of Equalization also has a filing fee for any
jurisdictional boundary changes. This fee is based on the number of acres.
Application Annexation Process
1. Once the application for service is signed by the applicant and fees are paid, the annexation process can
begin.
2. Once all of the documents comprising the application have been prepared, the application for annexation
is presented to South Feather Water and Power Agency’s Board of Directors for approval. The Board of
Directors meets on the fourth Tuesday of every month.
a. If you chose to have SFWPA’s contracted engineering firm prepare the annexation document, our
personnel will forward the service application to the engineering firm for processing.
b. If you decided to contract your own engineering firm the following documents must be prepared:
i. Two (2) completed LAFCo Annexation Applications
ii. Five (5) copies of the legal description of the subject area complying with the State Board
of Equalization standards
iii. Ten (10) copies of the map depicting the subject area with vicinity map
iv. Two (2) copies of the environmental documentation complying with the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
3. Once the annexation documents have been submitted to LAFCo, the application process through LAFCo
can take approximately 90 days to complete.
4. Once the application has received LAFCo’s approval, SFWPA can start installation of the service.
SOUTH FEATHER WATER & POWER AGENCY
TO: Board of Directors FROM: Dan Leon, Power Division Manager DATE: January 17, 2017 RE: General Information (regarding matters not scheduled on agenda) January 24, 2017 Board of Directors Meeting Operations The Power Division Summary Report for November 2017, reservoir storage charts, and Forbestown precipitation chart are attached. The total precipitation measured this season at Forbestown on January 16 is 61.5 inches. The 2011-2016 average rainfall for this period is 27.0 inches. The 2016-2017 precipitation year started on July 1. Water releases from Little Grass Valley Reservoir (LGVR) peaked at about 1,800 CFS due to the heavy precipitation event on January 10. Releases from LGVR were sent around the upper powerhouses, to minimize spillage at Lost Creek Reservoir (LCR). The South Fork tunnel was closed on January 4, and the Slate Creek tunnel was closed on December 13. Powerhouse availability and performance for December, 2016, is summarized in the table below:
Powerhouse Capacity MW

Note 1: December 2016 has a total of 744 calendar hours.
Regulatory Compliance WECC Quarterly Reporting Earlier this month, the Agency completed several quarterly compliance reports, as required by the Western Electricity Coordinating Council (WECC). The reports contain information on Agency generator voltage regulation, power system stabilizers, and transmission line vegetation management. Projects Kelly Ridge Powerhouse Turbine Shutoff Valve Replacement On December 7 and 8, HDR Engineering and Southwest Valve personnel performed turbine shutoff valve (TSV) closure testing, with empty and filled penstock conditions. The objective of the testing was to determine if adjustments could be performed in the field to resolve the TSV closure problem, and assist the Agency in identifying the root cause of the current problem. Following the testing, HDR transmitted a field report to the Agency and it is currently under review by staff. A copy of the report will be presented at the Board meeting for review and discussion. Maintenance Woodleaf Powerhouse Annual Maintenance Outage The Woodleaf Powerhouse annual maintenance outage will begin on January 23, with an expected return-to-service date of February 4. During the outage, Agency maintenance personnel will replace the 125 VDC station power system that includes two chargers, sixty batteries, and a chemical containment system. In addition, Agency personnel will perform routine inspections and service of the generator, turbine, main circuit breaker, generator step-up transformer, and other ancillary plant equipment. Woodleaf Powerhouse TWD Blower Failure On January 9, Woodleaf Powerhouse was taken offline due to the entry of water into the turbine guide bearing (TGB). High tail water levels in combination with the failure of one 50-horsepower tail water depression (TWD) blower caused water to contaminate the TGB lubricating oil. Agency maintenance personnel replaced the faulty blower with a new spare unit, and the powerhouse was restored to normal operation on January 12. During a future maintenance outage, Agency staff will also inspect the turbine shaft air seal for excessive wear and leakage. Forbestown Powerhouse Generator Step-up Main Transformer On December 1, an oil leak was discovered at the Forbestown powerhouse generator step-up main transformer, and the powerhouse was immediately removed from service. The Agency retained a contractor to replace faulty gaskets on the phase-C primary insulating bushing. The repairs were
completed during the week of December 18, and the powerhouse was immediately returned to service. A new set of transformer primary bushings will be installed during the next scheduled maintenance outage. Other Maintenance and Repair Projects (through Jan 18)

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Shawn Hayse, Special Projects Manager DATE: January 18, 2016 RE: Project Update: January Storm Damage and Repair; and, Lost Creek Dam Project
January 24, 2016 Board of Directors Meeting January Storm Damage Assessment and Repair In addition to a new year, January 1st also ushered in almost 28-inches of rain in the first 10 days at Sly Creek Reservoir. Although the operations and maintenance crews were able to successfully manage the deluge of water to minimize the impact on powerhouse infrastructure, some damage was unavoidable. The Sunset Hill communications building roof was heavily damaged after high winds tore off
approximately half of the roof panels. Quick action on the part of maintenance personnel prevented significant damage to critical communications infrastructure. A temporary repair was completed to manage through the remainder of the winter, and a permanent fix will be completed this summer. The most significant damage occurred on the Miners Ranch Canal service road that runs parallel to the Canal, above Lake Oroville. The steep slope supporting the narrow service road became saturated and slid away from the road in
numerous locations; this directly caused partial

Figure 2: Road Failure at Miners Canal
Lost Creek Dam Improvement Project Update January 24, 2016 Page 2 of 4
failures of the road rendering it impassable by vehicles and equipment. Syblon-Reid Construction was immediately engaged under the Agency’s Master Service Agreement to implement emergency erosion mitigation measures to minimize further damage until a repair can be performed. Establishing access to the Canal remains a critical priority. Agency staff is currently focusing on repairing a 100-foot section of road near Station-5 that will facilitate access to the most vulnerable portions of the Canal. Though final costs have not been determined, a preliminary estimate indicates costs are likely to
exceed $1.2M.
Lastly, the major fire that burned in the Ponderosa Reservoir and the Enterprise Bridge in 2015 left much of the hillside above the Miners Ranch Canal scarred and vulnerable to mudslides. A number of those areas failed during this storm series resulting in significant amounts of debris and sediment making its way into the canal and temporarily preventing the flow of water through the Canal. Personnel from both Power and Water division were able to operate from within the Canal to carefully remove the material in order to reestablish flow. Many of the culverts outside of the Canal remain plugged with more than 600 – 1000 CY of debris; however, this material cannot be removed until the Canal road is repaired. Fortunately, the Canal walls have not sustained any damage and remain intact.

Lost Creek Dam Improvement Project Update January 24, 2016 Page 3 of 4
Lost Creek Dam Project - Summary In spite of a concerted effort by numerous cooperating agencies, the volume of direct rain runoff into Lost Creek Reservoir was more than the Reservoir was able to temporarily hold. The average spill for the period was 300-400cfs. Lost Creek Reservoir is currently at normal pool elevation. As expected, it does not appear as though any damage occurred, but a more thorough investigation will be performed once weather permits. No other project activity is currently being conducted. Finance / Change Orders A total of $4,297 was disbursed this month for ancillary services. No progress payments were made to SMCI this month. One AECOM invoice is under review, but no disbursements were made. A balance of $71,250 remains withheld from SMCI progress payment #13 for performance failures. 19 potential change orders from SMCI have been received to date; no change orders were approved this month. Major Remaining Work Elements
• Bridge Deck Removal • Spillcrest / Pier Demolition • Spillcrest / Pier Construction • New Bridge Deck Construction and
Placement
• Retaining Wall Excavation/Construction • Scour Protection • Mid/Low-Level Outlet Extension

TO: Board of Directors FROM: Matt Colwell, Water Division Manager DATE: January 18, 2017 RE: General Information (regarding matters not scheduled on the agenda) 1/24/17 Board of Directors Meeting January Storm Issues Saturated soil conditions during the January storms created water distribution and water treatment problems. The water distribution system had 4 water main breaks caused by saturated soil conditions allowing distribution system pressure to separate pipeline joints. Concrete thrust blocks were insufficient to resist the pipeline pressure in unstable soils. Repairs included custom thrust block kickers and mechanical joint restraints to compensate
for the lack of stable soil. Treatment and distribution crews worked through the night trying to stop the ruptures and eliminate the high demand. Water Conservation Attached is a SWRCB staff recommendation to continue the mandated Emergency Urban Water Conservation Regulations and evaluate drought conditions in May or June 2017. The good news is that the Agency achieved 18% urban water conservation during December compared to 2013. No additional comment. Water Treatment Operations The total MRTP treated water production for the month of December totaled 70 million gallons which is 97 percent of average for the month (table at right).

Mud slides in the Miners Ranch Canal and high runoff volumes have created rapidly changing high turbidity raw water conditions which the operators are monitoring and reacting on a 24 hour basis to operate the treatment process to maintain water quality. Water Division extends much deserved gratitude to Power Division staff for the around-the-clock commitment and hard work in adverse conditions and continuously providing water for the treatment plant. Irrigation System North Yuba Water District experienced a failure of the Upper Forbestown ditch. SFWPA has no water demands from NYWD at this time but NYWD needs domestic water from the ditch so a repair was paramount. A 160 foot section washed off the hill downstream of Young Life (Woodleaf) and upstream of a prior repair that was replaced with a 36 inch diameter pipe section. The new repair also included the installation of 36 inch diameter corrugated HDPE pipe and stacked concrete headwall and outlet. The current irrigation operations are: Forbestown Ditch SF 14 = 0 cfs
NYWD = 0 cfs (loss) SFWPA @ WD 6 = 0 cfs Bangor Canal SF 25 = 3 cfs Palermo Canal SF30 = 1 cfs Irrigation and distribution crews are currently modifying and monitoring the irrigation distribution system to pass the anticipated high flow accretions that can accumulate in the ditch system. Although spill structures are wide open, many areas are problematic and are threatened for overtopping and scour failure potential. MRTP Improvement Project
A significant effort over the past month has been the construction of the 2 million gallon clearwell. A significant milestone was reached where the floor of the clearwell was poured. The significance of having a solid floor is that rain and weather has less of an impact to the construction of the walls. The next month will see a sequence of wall pours. A 7 day rain and hard rock delay will attempt to be mitigated with work performed on Saturday’s to get the project back on schedule. Much of the project in other locations is slightly delayed but critical path is still the clearwell construction scheduled for completion by April of 2017.
For December the project invoice from C. Overaa & Co. is $1.39 million and as of December 31, 2016 approximately $7.3 million of the Phase I and Phase II contracted work budgeted for $25.2 million have been expended.

Staff Proposal for Modifying Emergency Conservation Regulation January 17, 2017
1 | P a g e
Background
The State Water Board adopted revised Emergency Urban Water Conservation Regulations in May 2016.
Those regulations became effective June 1, 2016 and expire February 28, 2017. In addition to consideration of
revising or extending the emergency regulations, Executive Order B-37-16 requires the Board to develop a
proposal by January 2017 for achieving mandatory conservation reductions that build off of the previous 25%
mandatory levels and incorporate lessons learned.
Improving Water Supply Conditions
Water supply conditions continue to improve based on precipitation and reservoir and snow pack storage
compared to the last several years. However, we are only halfway through the traditionally wet period of the
year. History shows that rains can stop suddenly and not return. Additionally, some parts of the state –
specifically parts of the Central Valley and pockets along the lower Central Coast (near Santa Barbara) are still
experiencing water supply shortfalls and five years of drought have left us with a significant water supply
deficit, especially when it comes to our groundwater basins.
Information on Drought Assessment
Drought is a function of impacts, which may be local. There’s no rulebook for when a drought is declared or
rescinded. A report published by the Department of Water Resources in 2015 contains useful information
about the tricky business of declaring drought. The report can be found at the following
link: http://www.water.ca.gov/waterconditions/docs/a9237_CalSignficantDroughts_v10_int.pdf.
Staff-Proposed Extension of Emergency Regulation
Staff proposes to continue the existing stress test approach and revisit it if updated conditions warrant. Water
suppliers would be allowed to re-submit stress test data with up-to-date information if significant changes
have occurred (new supplies, changing reservoir conditions, etc.). Staff also proposes to continue all other
aspects of the existing emergency regulation, including:
Monthly reporting on water production and local enforcement action
Prohibited water uses (e.g., no irrigation during and for 48 hours after rain)
Ability to issue Informational and Conservation Orders
Staff also proposes to add Water Board enforcement authority against municipalities that issue fines or
citations for brown lawns in violation of statute.
If conditions warrant, staff will return to the Board in May or June 2017 with an updated proposal.
