SUMMARY:
Total System
for Month: Total California American Water (Cal-Am)
system production for November was 938 acre-feet (AF), 16 percent less than the
anticipated goal of 1,113 AF, as shown on the accompanying table (Exhibit 25-A). The 938 AF of production in
November represents a 12 percent savings from Cal-Am's base year (i.e., Water
Year 1988) production of 1,067 AF.
Total System,
Water Year to Date: Total system production for 2005
Water Year (WY) has been 2,085 AF. The
anticipated production of 2,492 AF for this same period is based on an annual
goal of 15,285 AF from the Cal-Am system.
Monthly production goals are calculated by multiplying total annual
production (15,285 AF) times the average fraction of annual production for each
month (based on production data from 1988 to 1997).
Ground Water
Production: During November, 28 AF were produced from
Cal-Am wells in the Upper Carmel Valley.
This production was seven percent less than the anticipated production
of 30 AF. Lower Carmel Valley well
production was 708 AF, 12 percent more than the anticipated production of 633
AF. In November, 202 AF were produced by
Cal-Am from the coastal subareas of the Seaside Basin, 55 percent less than the
anticipated production of 450 AF.
Surface Water
Production: In November, no water was diverted through
the Carmel Valley Filter Plant (CVFP) from San Clemente Reservoir, equivalent
to the zero AF of production that was anticipated. The total diversion through the CVFP for WY
2005 has been zero AF, or zero percent of total system production. Average
release to the Carmel River from San Clemente Dam during November was 17 cubic
feet per second, as measured at the Sleepy Hollow Weir.
The anticipated
river flow, storage values and production goals were developed jointly by the
District, Cal-Am, and the California Department of Fish and Game in
consultation with NOAA Fisheries. Cal-Am
and District staff are monitoring reservoir storage, inflow and water quality,
and will make additional changes as conditions warrant. Please refer to Exhibit 25-A for additional information
