SUMMARY:
Total System for Month:
Total California American Water (Cal-Am) system production for June was
1,418 acre-feet (AF), four percent less than the anticipated goal of 1,477 AF,
as shown on the accompanying table (Exhibit 20-A).
The 1,418 AF of production in June represents a 26 percent savings from
Cal-Am's base year (i.e., Water Year 1988) production of 1,925 AF.
Total System, Water Year to
Date: Total system production for 2006 Water Year
(WY) through June 30, 2006 has been 9,779 AF.
Ground Water Production: During June, 133 AF were produced from Cal-Am wells in the Upper Carmel Valley. This production was 133 percent more than the anticipated production of 57 AF. Lower Carmel Valley (LCV) well production was 894 AF, three percent less than the anticipated production of 920 AF. In June, 391 AF were produced by Cal-Am from the coastal subareas of the Seaside Basin, 22 percent less than the 500 AF of production that was anticipated.
Surface Water Production: In
June, 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 2006 has been zero AF, or zero percent of total system
production. Average release to the Carmel River from San Clemente Dam during
June was 54 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 20-A for additional information regarding
Cal-Am production in June 2006.
