Real Estate, Environmental & Planning Committee Minutes March 22, 2017 Page 2 3.* Dublin San Ramon Services District — East Bay Municipal Utility District Recycled Water Authority (DERWA) Rave Wastewater Diversion Request Ms. LaBella reviewed the memo included in the agenda materials, explaining the potential benefits: expanded beneficial reuse, reduction of effluent discharged to the Suisun Bay, and preserving recycled water service into the southern portion of Central San's service area. she also reviewed the potential consequences: impacts on the collection system and treatment plant due to reduction in flow, conflicts with Central Sam's Board recycled water goals, and customer and financial impacts. Ms. LaBella also distributed a map of the San Ramon Pump station Sewershed to show a more detailed location of where the proposed portion of raw wastewater will be diverted(attached). Ms. Gemmell clarified than the San Ramon Pump Station handles all the yellow areas on the map. Ms. Zavadil explained that DSRSD is initially looking for a five-year timeline in order to fully evaluate the San Ramon Valley's needs. she also explained that they are looking for up to 2.5 million gallons per day(mgd) during their peak days, rather than a single diversion for a set amount of time. Nis. Sasaki stated than intermittent flows would create a more difficult scenario for central San's staff. Ms. LaBella concluded by explaining how a regional exchange, in which Central San serves recycled water to the nearby refineries and that freed up water is transferred to DERWA, would be the most optimal way for Central San to provide water supply to DERWA. In response to a question regarding this water exchange concept, Ms. Zavadil explained that water rights may be an issue, in terms of a change in the place of use. Member Pilecki stated that in order for the Board to make any decisions, additional information is needed to determine how to divert the water and what the impacts would be to central San. Ms. Zavadil said DSRSD has a consultant ready to begin e va lua tions if Central San is ready. Chair Ca use y agreed with Member Pilecki that staff should continue stra tegizing with DERWA, and return with a proposed plan at a future Committee meeting.
