1.08 - Length of storage based on loss of all sources of supply. All zones can meet the 8 hr criteria either separately or by pumping from zones with excess capacity. Could increase well output in an emergency to meet partial demand.

 

Summary

 

The South San Francisco District, normally receives over 80% of its water from the SF RWS from 11 turnouts off the San Andreas and Crystal Spring pipelines, with the remaining water pumped from 8 local district wells. Cal Water had been participating in a Conjunctive Use Pilot Program during which the South San Francisco District had received 100% of its supply from the SF RWS. However, in 2007 Cal Water began operating its well again. The distribution system includes 15 pressure zones, 8 wells, 25 booster pumps, 14 storage reservoirs, 1,436 hydrants, and 160 miles of main.
