  • Water Supply Management Report 2018-2019 Water Year
    FINAL January 28, 2020 City of Santa Barbara Water Supply Management Report 2018-2019 Water Year Prepared by Water Resources Division, Public Works Department City of Santa Barbara Water Supply Management Report 2019 Water Year (October 1, 2018 – September 30, 2019) Water Resources Division, Public Works Department January 28, 2020 INTRODUCTION The City of Santa Barbara operates the water utility to provide water for its citizens, certain out-of-City areas, and visitors. Santa Barbara is an arid area, so providing an adequate water supply requires careful management of water resources. The City has a diverse water supply including local reservoirs (Lake Cachuma and Gibraltar Reservoir), groundwater, State Water, desalination, and recycled water. The City also considers water conservation an important tool for balancing water supply and demand. The City's current Long-Term Water Supply Plan (LTWSP) was adopted by City Council on June 14, 2011. This annual report summarizes the following information: The status of water supplies at the end of the water year (September 30, 2019) Drought outlook Water conservation and demand Major capital projects that affect the City’s ability to provide safe clean water Significant issues that affect the security and reliability of the City’s water supplies Appendix A provides supplemental detail. Additional information about the City's water supply can be found on-line at: www.SantaBarbaraCA.gov/Water. WATER SUPPLIES The City has developed five different water supplies: local surface water; local groundwater (which includes water that seeps into Mission Tunnel); State Water; desalinated seawater; and recycled water. Typically, most of the City’s demand is met by local surface water reservoirs and recycled water and augmented as necessary by local groundwater, State Water, and desalination.

  • Groundwater Resources Are in Long-Term Balance in Accordance with the Conjunctive Management Element of the City’S Long-Term Water Supply Plan
    6-a CITY OF SANTA BARBARA COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT Draft AGENDA DATE: January 23, 2018 TO: Mayor and Councilmembers FROM: Water Resources Division, Public Works Department SUBJECT: Drought Update and Annual Water Supply Management Report RECOMMENDATION: That Council: A. Receive an update on the status of the current drought, drought-response capital projects, and continuing efforts; and B. Approve and adopt the City of Santa Barbara Water Supply Management Report for the 2017 water year, finding that groundwater resources are in long-term balance in accordance with the conjunctive management element of the City’s Long-Term Water Supply Plan. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Since January 2014, staff has been providing monthly drought updates on water supply status, drought-response capital projects, community conservation, and other drought- related issues. Staff will provide a monthly update for January 2018. In addition, staff will present the 2017 Annual Water Supply Management Report (WSMR). The 2017 WSMR is a backwards-looking document that summarizes water supplies and issues for the water year that occurred from October 2016-September 2017. The report fulfills a mitigation requirement of the Coastal Branch of the State Water Project to manage water supplies to prevent long-term overdraft of local groundwater. DISCUSSION: Drought Update Council declared the Stage One and Stage Two Drought Conditions on February 11, 2014, and May 20, 2014, respectively, as a result of unprecedented drought conditions. On May 5, 2015, in response to the driest consecutive four-year period on record, Council declared a Stage Three Drought Emergency. Since then, the Stage Three Drought condition has been amended with appropriate conservation targets and water use regulations in response to current and forecasted supply conditions.
