Annual Water Conservation Reports for Fiscal Years 2005 and
2006
GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION:
For the Board to receive an update on the District's FY 2005 and
FY 2006 Water Conservation Best Management Practice Reports.
This item is informa·tional only and does not require Board
action.
COMMITTEE ACTION:
See Attachment "AH
PURPOSE:
To provide the Board a summary of the 2005 and 2006 annual Water
Conservation Best Management Practices Reports. These reports
are submitted to the California Urban Water Conservation Council
(CUWCC) every two years.
ANALYSIS:
The District voluntarily agreed to implement the fourteen water
conservation Best Management Practices (BMPs) beginning in 1992,
as one of the original signatories to the Memorandum of
Understanding Regarding Urban Water Conservation in California.
The District submits its annual report to the CUWCC every two
years for the past two recently completed fiscal years. The FY
05 and 06 BMP reports must be submitted by December 1, 2006.
The District's BMP reports are also an element of its Urban
Water Management Plan. The District is required to submit an
Urban Water Management Plan every five years to the Department
of Water Resources, and this Plan focuses heavily on an agency's
water conservation efforts. Non-compliance with the BMPs may
ultimately impact future growth, as this report is submitted as
part of SB 221/610 reporting requirements. Both the Department
of Water Resources and the United States Bureau of Reclamation
restrict grant funding only to water agencies who implement the
BMPs. Once submitted to the CUWCC, the District's BMP reports
become open to the public.
By participating in regionally implemented programs with
Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MET) and the
San Diego County Water Authority (Water Authority), the District
is able to meet its water conservation goals in a cost-effective
manner. The District's water conservation program activity to
date resulted in water savings of 1,165 acre-feet last fiscal
year. Without these Water Conservation programs, the District
would need to spend $788,700 to purchase this water last fiscal
year, at a marginal cost of $677 per acre-foot.
As a water retailer, the District reports on 13 BMPs. In
addition to the BMPs, Otay also reports on the number of
accounts by customer class and details its supply sources.
Listed below is a summary of the BMPs to be submitted to the
CUWCC along with the District's breakdown of water use by
account type.
Water Use by Customer Class
In Fiscal Year 2006, the District's residential single family
customers comprised 90% of the total accounts and represented
55% of the total demand. It is estimated that over 60% of that
sector's demand is applied to landscapes. The District's
irrigation accounts also continue to grow over time and have
doubled since 1997, from 841 accounts to 1692 accounts at the
end of FY 2006. Irrigation accounts represent 24% of the
District's overall demand. Overall, it is estimated that at
least 65% of the district's water is used for irrigation, since
many of the commercial, institutional and multi-family accounts
are mixed use meters such as Cuyamaca College, Southwestern
College and Sharp's Chula Vista. The District estimates that it
has 422 mixed-use commercial and institutional meters.

As noted in the chart below, the District's water savings
continue to increase each year since 1990 when the first water
conservation programs began. The District's water savings goal
for the "Total Water Saved" performance measure for FY 07 is
1,271 acre-feet. The chart reflects water savings attributed to
devices replaced or surveys conducted through water conservation
programs.

Ill ULFT Program
0 HEW Residential
0 Commercial Programs
• Residential Surveys
m Showerheads
This BMP requires an agency to offer and complete residential
surveys for 15% of its single family and 15% of its multi-family
accounts within ten years of the date implementation was to
commence (1997). Through the end of FY 06, one thousand and
seven surveys were conducted in Otay since the program began
back in 1995. Surveys were directly marketed to the District's
top residential customers as well as on its web page and at
events. While in the past the District and the Authority each
paid one-forth the cost of the survey and MET paid the
remainder, beginning in FY 05, MET stopped funding residential
surveys, and CWA only provided a limited amount of funding for
surveys. Surveys typically involve checking for toilet leaks,
measuring showerhead and faucet flow rates, reviewing the
irrigation system, timers, and developing an irrigation
schedule. The District is currently behind schedule (by 1,588
SF surveys) in meeting the coverage requirements of this BMP.
4
This BMP is scheduled to sunset on June 30, 2007 and be replaced
with the proposed BMP 15.
BMP 2: Residentia~ P~umbing Retro£it
This BMP involves the distribution of showerheads until 75% of
the District's pre-1992 single-family households have low flow
showerheads using 2.5 gallons per minute (gpm) or less. The 2.5
gpm requirement has been a Federal standard since January 1,
1994. The Authority and its member agencies distributed over
550,000 showerheads between 1991 and 2002, and there is a 4%
estimated replacement rate. In addition, the District
distributed three hundred and sixty-one 2.0 gpm showerheads to
its customers over the last two fiscal years. The District is
in compliance with the coverage requirements of this BMP.
BMP 3: System Water Audits, Leak Detection and Repair
A pre-screening audit was completed to determine if the
District's water loss exceeds 10%. The pre-screening audit
totals the metered sales and other verifiable uses and then
divides them by the total supply. If the pre-screening audit
indicates that water loss exceeded 10%, then the District is
required to complete a full system audit. Water loss was 2% in
FY 05 and 9% in FY 06. The District is in compliance with the
coverage requirements of this BMP.
BMP 4: Metering with Commodity Rates £or a~~ New Connections and
Retro£it o£ Existing Connections
This BMP asks if meters are installed for all new connections,
and if customers are billed by volume of use. In addition, this
BMP asks if a feasibility study has been conducted to assess the
merits of developing a mixed meter retrofit program. Otay has
installed meters at all of its 47,400 connections, but has not
conducted a mixed meter retrofit feasibility study. The vast
majority of the District's commercial meters with over an acre
of landscape have separate irrigation meters. Since 1990, new
commercial accounts situated on parcels of at least an acre are
required to have a dedicated irrigation meter. The District is
in compliance with the coverage requirements of this BMP.
BMP 5: Large Landscape Conservation Programs and Incentives
This BMP involves targeting water conservation programs to large
(1 acre+) landscape accounts and asks whether the District's
dedicated irrigation meters have water budgets. At the end of
5
fiscal year 2006, the District had 1,692 dedicated irrigation
accounts. Beginning in FY 2005, the District participated in a
web-based water budget reporting program. Roughly half of the
District's accounts signed up to be notified of their monthly
water budget through this program. The District has actively
promoted large landscape surveys since 1990, and over 175 audits
have been completed.
The coverage requirements for this BMP involve meeting all three
conditions for compliance: developing water budgets for 90% of
its dedicated irrigation meters, offering landscape surveys to
at least 20% of its commercial and institutional mixed use
meters, and implementing a dedicated landscape meter retrofit
program for mixed use meters or assigning water budgets to mixed
use meters. Until recently, the District was not certain how
many mixed use meters were in place. Section 27 of the
District's Code of Ordinances has required the installation of
dedicated irrigation meters on commercial parcels of an acre or
more since 1990 and allowed for the purchase of a separate
irrigation meter beginning in 1993. For this reason, the
District wrote that our program and ordinance is "at least as
effective as" the coverage requirements of this BMP.
BMP 6: High-E££iciency (HE) C~othes Washing Machine Rebate
Programs
Since 1994, the District has offered a financial incentive
toward the purchase of a high-efficiency clothes washer. The
District and the Authority collectively offer a $125 voucher,
providing 4,015 vouchers in Otay since 1994. As highlighted on
the chart below, the District provided 1,031 HE Clothes Washer
Vouchers in FY 05 and 807 in FY 06. Beginning July 1, 2005 the
$125 voucher was only available for high efficiency clothes
washers (HEWs) with a water factor of 6.0 or less. HEWs with a
water factor of 6.0 or less are estimated to save 9,100 gallons
per household per year over the fourteen year lifespan of the
machine .. The District is meeting the coverage requirements of
this BMP.

BMP 7: Pub~ic In£or.mation Programs
01-02 02-03 03-04 04-05 05-06
The District maintains an active public information program to
promote and educate customers about water conservation and its
water conservation programs. Otay actively promotes its water
conservation programs through community events, on its web page,
in the quarterly Pipeline customer newsletter, through bill
messages, and in bill inserts. Outreach to Otay customers
regarding the Water Conservation Garden is included under this
BMP report. Beginning in FY 05, this BMP report no longer
includes outreach by the Authority on behalf of the District.
The District is meeting the coverage requirements of this BMP.
BMP 8: Schoo~ Education Program
The District and Water Authority school program efforts within
Otay are highlighted in this BMP. Since the school education
program began in 1990, over 96,000 students have participated in
the school education program and over 6,200 students have
participated in the program over the last two fiscal years. The
programs include distribution of classroom kits to teachers,
funding for school buses to visit the Garden, and teacher
workshops. For the first time, beginning in FY 2005, the Water
Authority's school program activity is not included within the
report. The District is meeting the coverage requirements of
this BMP.

BMP 9: Conservation Programs for Commercial, Institutional and
Industrial Accounts
In conjunction with the Water Authority and MET, the District
offers vouchers of either $135 for ultra-low flush toilets or
$165 for high efficiency toilets, $130 for single load or $775
for multi-load commercial clothes washers, $625 for cooling
towers and $60 for pre-rinse spray valves. In addition to the
programs noted, the District partnered with the Water Authority
to fund water surveys for its top two institutional water users.
The District is currently behind schedule in meeting the
coverage requirements of this BMP.
BMP 10: Wholesale Agency Assistance Program
This BMP is not applicable to retail water agencies
BMP 11: Conservation Pricing
Otay detailed its pricing structure in this BMP as well as how
much revenue is collected through both water and sewer customer
classes including: residential, commercial, industrial,
institutional/government, irrigation, and other. The District
will be in compliance with this BMP once it moves from flat to
volumetric charges for its sewer customers.
BMP 12: Conservation Coordinator
The District has had a Water Conservation Coordinator/Manager
since the spring of 1991. This BMP asks how much of the
Coordinator's time is spent on water conservation, their
experience, and the conservation budget. The District is in
compliance with the requirements of this BMP.
BMP 13: Water Waste Prohibition
The District complies with this BMP through its water waste
prohibition ordinance, listed within Section 39 of its Code of
Ordinances.
BMP 14: Residential ULFT Replacement Programs
Since 1992, the District has replaced 20,430 older toilets with
1.6 gallon per flush toilets as noted on the chart below.
Customers were offered either a $75 voucher to install an Ultra
Low Flush Toilet (ULFT), or a $95 voucher towards the
installation of a dual-flush toilet. The District reports the
8
number of toilets installed in multi-family vs. single family
accounts and beginning in FY 05, lists the number of dual-flush
or high efficiency toilets (maximum of 1.28 gallons per flush)
installed through the program. The District is currently behind
schedule (by between 600 to 1000 ULFTs depending on whether they
are installed in a single-family or multi-family setting) in
implementing this BMP due to the low number of multi-family
accounts that have replaced their older toilets.

D. Comments
Surveys were offered on a case-by case basis and while evaluating sites
for our pilot Cash for Plants program. Beginning last fiscal year, this
program was not funded at any levels we could market (they offered to co-
fund approximately 20 surveys, and near the end of the fiscal year there
was an offer to co-fund surveys retoactively by MET but it was too late to
promote them. Instead, program emphasis shifted to the promotion of an
incentive for residential smart irrigation controllers and surveys were
offered during this time. Honeywell's bid to conduct residential surveys and
their cost was dramatically higher than in past years. 2 residential smart
controllers were installed through the voucher program that offered $65 per
"smart" controller through the 2nd quarter of this fiscal year. Another 76
"smart" controllers were distributed in March, April and June of this fiscal
year.

The Water Authority in partnership with the District and Its other member
agencies developed a number of new programs including a voucher
program for "smart" irrigation controllers and mini-grants for improving
the irrigation efficiency. The programs were marketed to all of the
district's 1600 landscape accounts but specifically to accounts who had
already received a large landscape survey {previously called PALM
surveys). There was limited funding for large landscape surveys this
fiscal year. The programs were marketed through direct mail as well as
on the water bills. Staff also called a number of the district's largest
landscape accounts to explain the program and there was cross
marketing from the district's pilot Cash for Plants turfgrass retrofit
program. The pilot Cash for Plants program ran through December of
2005.

On October 17, 1990 the Otay Water District passed Ordinance No. 367
which mandated the installation of a separate landscape meter on
commercial or industrial properties if they are located on a parcel of land
an acre or more in size. Then in December of 1993, the District approved
http://bmp.cuwcc.orglbmp/print/printall.lasso 1112112006
CUWCC I Print All Page 14 of37
Ordinance No. 424 allowing commercial customers who obtained a
single water meter to October 1990 to obtain a second meter for indoor
use without paying water capacity fees if the additional meter is solely for
the purpose of isolating current indoor water use from that used for
outdoor landscaping. The landscape meter requirement is found in
Section 27 of the District*s Code of Ordinances. 6: The District installed
three water "smart" irrigation controllers around its offices this fiscal year.
E. Comments
4. a. Jamacha Park HOA received two CLIP grants and upgraded their
irrigation system as well as installed a smart irrigation controller. Funding
shown above also includes incentives for 2 "smart" controllers.
Additionally, one "smart" controller was provided to a landscape account
through the distribution program. Home Owners Associations with
significant turfgrass areas were encouraged to replace their turfgrass
with waterwise plant material through the District's pilot Cash for Plants
program. Funding was limited to four sites at $6,000 per site. In addition,
a $30,000 incentive ($10K from CWA) was available for installing
artificial turf grass in sports fields. Both programs were promoted through
either direct mailing or by cold calling high schools within the District. At
the beginning of this FY, the Water Authority hired ConserVision to
develop a web-based water budget reporting program for its member
agencies. This program was running by about the mid point of the fiscal
year.

No exemption request filed
Agency indicated "at least as effective as'' implementation during report period?
An agency must meet one condition to comply with BMP 11.
Reporting
Period:
05-06
Yes
Agency shall maintain rate structure consistent with BMP 11's definition of conservation pricing.
Implementation methods shall be at least as effective as eliminating non-conserving pricing and adopting
conserving pricing. For signatories supplying both water and sewer service, this BMP applies to pricing of both
water and sewer service. Signatories that supply water but not sewer service shall make good faith efforts to
work with sewer agencies so that those sewer agencies adopt conservation pricing for sewer service.
a) Non·conserving pricing provides no incentives to customers to reduce use. Such pricing is characterized by
one or more of the following components: rates in which the unit price decreases as the quantity used
increases (declining block rates);rates lhat involve charging customers a fixed amount per billing cycle
regardless of the quantity used; pricing in which the typical bill is determined by high fixed charges and low
commodity-charges.
b) Conservation pricing provides incentives to customers to reduce average or peak use, or both. Such pricing
includes: rates designed to recover the cost of providing service; and billing for water and sewer service based
on metered water use. Conservation pricing is also characterized by one or more of the following components:
rates in which the unit rate is constant regardless of the quantity used (uniform rates) or increases as the
quantity used increases (increasing block rates); seasonal rates or excess·USe surcharges to reduce peak
demands during summer months; rates based upon the longrun marginal cost or the cost of adding the next
unit of capacity to the system.

D. Comments
Surveys were offered on a case-by case basis. Beginning this fiscal year,
this program was not funded at any levels we could market (they offered to
co-fund approximately 20 surveys) . Instead, program emphasis shifted to
the promotion of an incentive for residential smart irrigation controllers and
surveys were offered during this lime. Honeywell bid to conduct residential
surveys and their cost was dramatically higher than in past years.

The Water Authority in partnership with the District and its other member
agencies developed a number of new programs including a voucher
program for "smart" irrigation controllers and mini-grants for improving
the irrigation efficiency. The programs were marketed to all of the
district's 1600 landscape accounts but specifically to accounts who had
already received a large landscape survey (previously called PALM
surveys). There was limited funding for large landscape surveys this
fiscal year. The programs were marketed through direct mail as well as
on the water bills. Staff also called a number of the district's largest
landscape accounts to explain the program and there was cross
marketing from the district's pilot Cash for Plants turfgrass retrofit
program.

On October 17, 1990 the Otay Water District passed Ordinance No. 367
which mandated the installation of a separate landscape meter on
commercial or industrial properties if they are located on a parcel of land
an acre or more in size. Then in December of 1993, the District approved
Ordinance No. 424 allowing commercial customers who obtained a
single water meter to October 1990 to obtain a second meter for indoor
http:/ lbmp.cuwcc.org/bmp/print/printall.lasso 11/2112006
CUWCC I Print All
use without paying water capacity fees if the additional meter is solely for
the purpose of isolating current indoor water use from that used for
outdoor landscaping. The landscape meter requirement is found in
Section 27 of the District•s Code of Ordinances.
E. Comments
4. a. Home Owners Associations with significant turfgrass areas were
encouraged to replace their turfgrass with waterwise plant material
through the District's pilot Cash for Plants program. Funding was limited
to four sites at $6,000 per site. In addition, a $30,000 incentive ($10K
from CWA) was available for installing artificial turf grass in sports fields.
Both programs were promoted through either direct mailing or by cold
calling high schools within the District. At the beginning of this FY, the
Water Authority hired ConserVision to develop a web-based water
budget reporting program for its member agencies. This program was
running by about the mid point of the fiscal year.
