SUMMARY: District Rules 163.A.3 and 164.A.3 encompass regulatory conservation and rationing “triggers” based on a 12-month running average of water production that are compared to an annual production limit shown in Rule 160 Table XV-1. When the District’s conservation and rationing plan was developed, the impact of supplies such as the Sand City Desalination Facility and Pure Water Monterey was not envisioned. Editing Rules 163.A.3 and 164.A.3 will require an ordinance of the District, which will be executed and brought to the Board at a later date. In the meanwhile, the proposed edit to the footnote in Rule 160 Table XV-1, as shown in red in Exhibit 20-B, will provide the needed clarity as an interim measure.

RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Board adopt Resolution 2021-10, A Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District Update to Amend Rule 160 Table XV-1.
