4. Develop up to 80 MGD of seawater desalination
◦ Supply from the West, emphasis on reliability
Develop 50 to 100 MGD of new treatment plant
capacity
◦ Capacity needed to alleviate regional shortfall/maintain reliability
Develop 100,000 AF carryover storage to manage
seasonal peaks and drought conditions
Implement internal system improvements
Reaffirmed local supply development
If all the above is achieved, additional imported
supplies (i.e., Pipeline 6) could be postponed for
several years

9. Urban Water Management Plan provides:
• Annual water demands on a regional basis
• Local and imported supply availability
• Identifies supply uncertainties
State Water Project/Colorado River
Local supply development
Conservation savings
Facilities Master Plan:
• Attributes demand to where a member
agency takes water
From both aqueduct system and local sources
• Assesses physical system ability to serve
individual member agencies under differing
circumstances
Weather variability
Peaking patterns, seasonal and weekly
What if demands on Water Authority are
different than assumed

10. Purpose:
• Guiding document for new infrastructure investments through the
2035 planning horizon
Key Objectives:
• Optimize existing conveyance system/local treatment plants
• Evaluate scope, timing and need of remaining CIP projects
Currently included in CIP, but not yet constructed
• Evaluate need and timing for new infrastructure and supply projects
Establish thresholds for facility utilization
• Integrate potential new desalination supplies into regional treatment
and conveyance system
• Develop a strategic plan for surface water storage with member
agencies
• Evaluate renewable energy opportunities
• Adapt to changes in future supply/demand conditions – treated and
untreated conveyance split
• Evaluate local supply development such as IPR

12. Master Plan Scenarios
• Built from 2010 UWMP scenarios
• Considers single/multiple dry years,
limited MWD supplies and local supply
mix
Master Plan considerations
• Peak seasonal and daily demand patterns
• Local supply development variability
• Hydrology Data (112 years)
• Climate impacts
Each Master Plan scenario attempts
to explore an aspect of supply and
demand uncertainty

13. Master Plan Update
Supply and Demand Scenarios
Scenario Description
Supplies and demands are consistent with the 2010 UWMP. All
Baseline member agency local supply development (“verifiable”) and
(2010 UWMP) conservation targets (per SBX7-7) are achieved. A subset of the
Baseline Scenario addresses climate change variation in demands.
Reduced Local Supply Additional member agency local supplies and conservation savings
are not achieved beyond year 2010 levels. This scenario establishes
Development and Conservation
the upper boundary for supply development by the Water Authority.
Member agency local supply development exceeds expectations
Enhanced Local Supply (“verifiable” and “planned”). Conservation targets, including additional
savings, are achieved. This scenario establishes the lower boundary
Development
for supply development by the Water Authority. A subset adds
conceptual projects.
Member agency local supply development and conservation savings
Adjusted Local Supply reach 50% of planned amounts (allows for member agency
Development uncertainty to meet established targets). Provides an intermediate
scenario to compare project timing against the baseline.

Water Authority Alternative Facility Portfolios
Portfolio Description
Each alternative is compared to the Baseline condition, which is the
Baseline Condition existing aqueduct system and ongoing CIP projects funded through
completion of construction. Baseline includes completion of the ESP
projects.
Emphasizes increased seawater desalination supplies from the
Supply from the West proposed Camp Pendleton Desalination Project. Evaluates new supply
in 50 MGD increments from a plant sized from 50 to 150 MGD.
Emphasizes increased regional surface water storage and out of region
Storage Optimization groundwater storage banking to address peak demand constraints on
the Baseline system.
Conveyance from the Emphasis is on continued reliance of imported supplies from MWD.
North New facilities include increasing conveyance capacity.
Conveyance from the East Emphasizes a new Colorado River Conveyance system to import QSA
supplies directly into the Aqueduct System at San Vicente Reservoir.

19. Baseline Condition
• Shortage risk is low due to dry weather only supply
impacts through 2025 regardless of demand
scenario
Not considering pumping restrictions or regulatory
actions
• Beyond 2025, shortage risk strongly depends on
member agency meeting established targets for
conservation, reuse, and alternative supplies
If implemented, City of San Diego IPR resolves most
long-term supply-demand imbalances
• Even low demand scenarios exhibit conveyance risks

20. Baseline
• Near term conveyance risks, can be managed by
coordinating member agency operations and
through use of seasonal storage pools
Internal system improvements needed to address
existing conveyance bottlenecks
Existing conveyance system will be fully utilized to
meet projected demands through planning horizon
