Current Alternatives (presented at Feb 9, 2012 Board workshop) Optimize existing conveyance and storage facilities Optimize imported supplies Integrate seawater desalination supplies

Proposed New Alternative (requested at Feb 9, 2012 Board workshop) Colorado River Conveyance

Master Plan Alternatives

Alternatives Included in 2012Master Plan Conveyance

from the North

Conveyance from the East

Supply from the West

Page 4: Water Planning Committee March 22, 2012

Assess 2010 UWMP supplies and demands Develop regional planning scenarios Assess facility alternatives Develop evaluation metrics Evaluate treated water demands, impacts of desalination

and use of Twin Oaks WTP Assess strategic plans for coordinated surface storage Conduct a vulnerability assessment Evaluate energy use, production opportunities and

greenhouse gas emissions

Master Plan Update Work Completed/In-Progress

Page 5: Water Planning Committee March 22, 2012

Confirm the viability of a proposed Colorado River Conveyance alternative

Review previous studies (1996 thru 2003) North of border routes

All American Canal capacity, conveyance routes, tunnel/pipe sizing, environmental and land use impacts, operations, energy use, GHG impacts

Equal level of analysis Integration of annual supply delivered to San Vicente reservoir, impact on

seasonal deliveries, seasonal storage, pump station operations, new facilities to convey annual supply

Update capital and operating costs Compare rate impact to projected MWD rates and charges

Integrate results into Master Plan, PEIR and CAP

Scope of New Alternative Evaluation

Required once every three years

2011: 80 updates proposed: Three allocated staff time

Can be updated “as needed”

Stakeholders can prepare information for update

Basin Plan Objectives for Reservoirs

Established in the 1970’s

Not scientifically based

Do not consider imported water storage

Do not consider natural lake conditions

Do not consider downstream treatment

Page 21: Water Planning Committee March 22, 2012

Reservoirs on “Impaired” listing

Barrett, El Capitan, Hodges, Loveland Miramar, Morena, Murray, Otay, San Vicente, Sutherland, Sweetwater

Based on data submitted

Most require compliance by 2019

• Increased scrutiny on financial performance - Water sales projections- Policy targets for liquidity and debt service coverage

• Ratios predict “ability to pay”• Ratios predict ability to pay - Fitch cites - coverage and financial performance primary indicators

of credit rating - Standard and Poor’s cites - liquidity important due to fluctuations in

cash flows• Management political risk and governance impacts “willingness• Management, political risk, and governance impacts willingness
