Subject: Questions for Water Management Plan Hearing
Hi Robin,
I would like to enter the questions below into the record for the above public hearing today.
Thanks,
Robert Goldberg
1) What is the difference between water "demand"and water "supplied'? Page 1-3 states
that City water demand was 3782 AFY while page 1-8 states that 3521 AFY was
"supplied".
2) What is the correct figure for the 2015 population of Seal Beach? Page 1-3 states 24,070,
while page 2-2 states 23,706.
3) Table 2-2 (on page 2-4) breaks down water supplied into four categories- residential,
institutional/governmental, sales to Golden State Water, and Commercial. Several
questions here:
a. We supply a large amount of water to the Navy base. Is this use categorized
as commercial rather than institutional/governmental?
b. Page 2-6 indicates that our system has a water loss of 159 AFY. This is more
than the total in the Table for institutional/governmental. What category
includes this system water loss?
c. The City waters public parks and medians. Is this use categorized as
commercial rather than institutional/governmental?
d. Similarly, Leisure World has a golf course and other park areas. Is water
used for this purpose categorized as residential or commercial?
4) Last week the State Water Resources Control Board issued regulations that epl acerd the
that avilbt
previous conservation targets with self-certified "stress
years of droughts On page 3-21 is
supplies are adequate to withstand an additional three Y
a very favorable assessment of our system's ability to do this even with a6 6% increase in
demand. Does this assessment mean that Seal Beach no longer has a required
conservation percent reduction?
