Total System
for Month: Total California American Water (CAW) system
production for October was 1,026 acre-feet (AF), 13 percent less than anticipated
production of 1,177 AF, as shown on the accompanying table (Exhibit 22-A).
Total System,
Water Year to Date: Total system production for Water
Year (WY) 2012 through October 31, 2011 has been 1,026 AF.
Groundwater Production: During October, no water was produced from CAW wells in the Upper Carmel Valley, consistent with the zero AF of production that was anticipated. Lower Carmel Valley (LCV) well production was 563 AF, four percent less than the anticipated production of 588 AF. In October, 411 AF were produced by CAW from the coastal subareas of the Seaside Basin, 25 percent less than the 550 AF that was anticipated. Well production from the Laguna Seca Subarea of the Seaside Basin which includes Hidden Hills, Bishop and Ryan Ranch water systems was 34 AF, 143 percent more than the 14 AF that was anticipated.
Surface Water
Production: In October, 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 2012 has been zero AF. Average release to the Carmel River from San
Clemente Dam during October was 19 cubic feet per second, as measured at the
Sleepy Hollow Weir.
The anticipated river flow, storage and production values were developed
jointly by the District, CAW, and the California Department of Fish and Game in
consultation with the National Marine Fisheries Service. CAW and District staff are monitoring reservoir
storage, inflow and water quality, and will make additional changes as
conditions warrant. Please refer to Exhibit
22-A for additional information
regarding CAW production in October 2011.
