_________________________________________________________________________
1. SUMMARY
OF MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY:
The maintenance department removed three trees from the
Pelican easement near Mission Road, removed a tree from the access road to pump
station P-5 (Easement below Sunset Lane), painted the interior of pump station
P-3 (Spyglass Hill Road and 17-Mile Drive), repaired a 150 horsepower pump at
P-3, coordinated the repair of automatic garage doors serving the fire
department, coordinated the repair of the fueling station and continued
monitoring water levels in the Forest Lake piezometers and monitoring manholes. Training was provided for a number of new systems
at the Forest Lake Reservoir project including plant feed pumps, strainers,
chemical feed system, chlorine injection system, backwash pumps, outlet
structure sluice gates and reservoir mixers.
2. WASTEWATER
FLOW MEASUREMENTS:
An average daily wastewater flow of 1,054,000 gallons
per day (gpd) was measured at the PBCSD Carmel gate flow metering station in March,
which represents 39% of the total flow of 2,697,000 gpd measured at the CAWD
treatment plant. The measured PBCSD flow
is 33 % above the five-year average of 790,000 gpd for March and the CAWD total
flow is 24 % above the five-year average of 2,181,000 gpd for March. A chart showing the quantity of PBCSD
wastewater flow recorded during the month of March and a graph showing average
daily wastewater flows from PBCSD and the CAWD treatment plant for the past
twelve months as well as the five-year average for each month is attached.
3. RECYCLED
WATER USE:
Total irrigation water demand for the 2005-06 water year
(October 1 to September 30) to date is 147 acre-feet including 124 acre-feet or
84 % of recycled water. Total demand for
the water year is 33 % below the 11-year average usage of 219 acre-feet for
this point in the water year. The April
potable water flushing cycle was cancelled due to low demand. The Reclamation Project Oversight Committee
approved the potable water flushing cycle schedule for the 2006 irrigation
season at the April 5th meeting.
Two attached charts show the total water and potable
water usage recorded on a daily basis for March and April to date. Two additional charts and a graph summarize
total, recycled and potable water usage on a monthly basis for the 2005-06
water year to date and for the previous eleven water years.
