Exhibit 35-A shows the water
supply status for the Monterey Peninsula Water Resources System (MPWRS) as of June 1, 2017. This system includes the surface water
resources in the
Water Supply Status: Rainfall through May 2017 totaled 0.05 inches and brings the cumulative rainfall total for WY 2017 to 32.19 inches, which is 155% of the long-term average through May. Estimated unimpaired runoff
during May totaled 6,732 acre-feet
(AF) and brings the cumulative runoff total for WY 2017 to 189,743 AF, which is 293%
of the long-term average through May. Usable storage, which includes surface and
groundwater, was 31,960 or 101%
of the long-term average at the end of May. This storage equates to 85% of system capacity.
Production Compliance: Under
State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Cease and Desist Order No. 2016-0016
(CDO), California American Water (Cal-Am) is allowed
to produce no more than 8,310 AF of water from the Carmel River in WY 2017. Through May, using the CDO accounting method,
Cal-Am has produced 4,272 AF from
the Carmel River (including ASR capped at 600 AF, Table 13, and Mal Paso.) In addition, under the Seaside Basin
Decision, Cal-Am is allowed to produce 2,251 AF of
water from the Coastal Subareas and 48 AF from the Laguna Seca Subarea of the
Seaside Basin in WY 2017. Through May, Cal-Am has produced 1,652 AF from the Seaside Groundwater
Basin. Through May, 2,345 AF of Carmel River Basin groundwater have been diverted for Seaside
Basin injection; 305 AF have been
recovered for customer use, and 491 AF
have been diverted under Table 13 water rights.
Cal-Am has produced 5,856 AF
for customer use from all sources through May.
The
12 month rolling average of production is 9,644 AF, is below the rationing
threshold of 10,609 AF. A breakdown of Cal-Am’s
production for WY 2017 is included as Exhibit 35-B. Exhibit 35-C shows production by source. Some of the values in this report may be revised in the future as Cal-Am finalizes their
production values and monitoring data.
