The 2012 fires in the Poudre Canyon limited the amount of Poudre River water we were able to treat for drinking water last year due to poor water quality as a result of rain events over the burn area and fluctuations in the river's flow. In addition, persistent drought conditions continue that impact the amount of water supply available. For 2013, it's unknown how much we will he able to draw from the Poudre River because of the fire -related water quality degradation. Thus, we may need to rely heavily on our CBT supplies from Horsetooth Reservoir. However, the amount of CBT water that will be available won't be clear until Northern Water declares the allocation available (or quota) to all unit owners in that project on April 12. It's anticipated that the quota may be low due to poor snowpack conditions. As such, not knowing how much water will be available we believe it is in the best interest of the community's water supply resources to implement Response Level 1 water restrictions effective April 1. 2013. Water Shortage Response Plan In April 2003. City Council adopted Ordinance No. 048, 2003, a Water Supply Shortage Response Plan (Plan). The Plan is a comprehensive document that outlines a series of measures to he enacted, including four water shortage response level water restrictions. This Plan was effective in responding to the 2003 drought efforts: therefore we believe the Ordinance supports responding to the 2013 water supply conditions. Among other necessary measures, Response Level 1 limits lawn watering to two days per week. Response Level 2 limits watering to one day per week and the adjustment to rates reflects a 15 percent reduction in water demand. Please see Attachment "A", Ordinance No. 048, 2003. the Water Supply Shortage Response Plan for details on all restriction levels. Fort Collins r� Water Supply Triggers The Water Resource Division has developed charts, one for Average -Year -Demands (see Attachment "B") and one for Dry -Year -Demands (see Attachment "C"), showing which level of restrictions would be needed to meet various scenarios. The parameters include the percentage of time the Poudre River is available for use and the CBT quota allotment that impacts water supply for the Fort Collins connmunity. Information from both of these charts will he used to determine if restriction levels need to be adjusted. In addition, Utilities staff is working on ways to increase the amount of CBT supplies available to the City. The potential for these CBT increases and our overall water supply situation will be clearer after the CBT quota is declared April 12. Currently, we have been able to treat about 15% of the projected Poudre supplies for the year in the attached tables. If we are able to treat the Poudre supplies tlurough April 1, we will have taken a little over 25% of those projected supplies. After April I, it will be hard to project the amount of Poudre supplies available given potential rain events and variable flow conditions (especially during runoff). which may make the water untreatable. Declaring Water Restrictions Because of the uncertainty of our future water supply staff intends to request the City Manager to declare Response Level 1 water restrictions for the City of Fort Collins in March for the water restrictions to be effective on April 1. 2013. Staff will then manage the proper noticing, as detailed in the Plan. to meet the Plan requirements, which state "Upon such detennination and declaration, the City Manager shall cause to be published in the local newspaper of record a notice of the restrictions and requirements corresponding to the Water Supply Shortage Response Level, as set forth herein, and the effective date of said restrictions and requirements..." Utilities is drafting a Water Supph Management Action. Plan for the restrictions detailing extensive communication and outreach measures, as well as enforcement procedures that provide the Fort Collins community the information they need to be prepared for April 1. Water Rate Adjustments In preparing for the potential of moving to Response Level 2 or higher, we are preparing an Ordinance for City Council's consideration regarding the required rate adjustments to meet the intent of the Water Supply Shortage Response Plan water rate increases. The scheduled readings for the Ordinance will be presented at the March 5 and March 19 City Council meetings.
