  1. LADWP WATER SYSTEM CAPITAL PROGRAM UPDATE July 25th 2013

  2. Los Angeles’ Water System • Established in 1902 • Largest municipally- owned utility in the U.S. • Operating Revenue = $ 1.08 billion (FY2012/13) • 3.86 million customers within 473 sq. mi. service area • 679,000 active metered services • Service elevation from sea level to over 2,400 feet • 7,225 miles of pipeline, 114 tanks & reservoirs, 78 pump stations, 421 regulator stations • 340-mile long Los Angeles Aqueduct System The Los Angeles Aqueduct

  3. Water System Priorities • Regulatory Compliance • Safe Water Supply and Compliance with Regulatory Requirements • Infrastructure Reliability • Sustainable Infrastructure Replacement • and Upgrade • Sustainable Water Supply • Increase Local Supply and Protect the • Environment • Investments that address these priorities are • interdependent and interconnected. Los Angeles Aqueduct Cascades

  4. Current and Projected Capital Expenditures CAPITAL Next 10 years $ in millions Total $8.5B Total $484M

  5. Water System Priority:Regulatory Compliance • Safety of the water we provide to our customers is LADWP’s #1 Priority • Drinking Water Regulations Require Major Investment in Water Infrastructure – two major water initiatives: • 1) Open Reservoirs: cover, replace, or provide add. treatment • Regulation: Long Term 2 Surface Water Treatment Rule (LT2, April 1, 2014) • 2) Chloramine Disinfection: system-wide change will reduce harmful disinfection byproducts • Regulation: Stage 2 Disinfection By-Products Rule (DBP2, June 30, 2021) • Failure to comply with regulatory requirements is NOT an option.

  6. Water System Priority: Regulatory Compliance Gravel dust mitigation • Owens Lake Dust Mitigation Project • 90% of dust is controlled and Owens Lake is no longer in the top 10 list of PM10 (dust) emissions • 42 square miles of dust control in operation • Over $1.2 billion spent to date in capital (since Sep. 2000); $72 million in annual O&M (including cost of replacement water) • Using up to 95,000 acre-feet per year of water from Los Angeles Aqueduct Shallow flooding dust mitigation

  7. Water System Priority:Regulatory Compliance Current and Projected Expenditures: ($ in Millions) Includes Water Quality Improvement Program and Owens Lake Dust Mitigation Project

  8. Water System Priority:Infrastructure Reliability • LADWP’s Water System is large and complex • Continually aging (233 miles of pipe are over a century old and 70% of pipes are more than 50 years old) • Maintenance and replacement is an ongoing and continuous effort • Water System Annual Leak Rate • 15 leaks per 100-miles is below N. America • average of 25 leaks per 100-miles of pipe • Current 315-year Pipe Replacement • Cycle - severely deficient of frequency • required for continued reliability Our 7,200 miles of water distribution pipeline is the backbone of our delivery infrastructure – we work very hard to keep its service reliability

  9. Water System Priority:Infrastructure Reliability Water Main Replacement Program

  10. Water System Priority:Infrastructure Reliability Current and Projected Expenditures: ($ in Millions)

  11. Water System Priority:Sustainable Water Supply • The City of Los Angeles plans to meet all new water demands through local resource development. • Environmental regulatory challenges and impacts of climate change requires continued focus on four major water initiatives: • Stormwater Capture • Water Conservation • Water Recycling • San Fernando Basin Groundwater Remediation

  12. Water System Priority:Sustainable Water Supply Fiscal Year 2034 – 35 Total: 711,000 AFY FYE 2008 –2012 Average Total: 574,600 AFY Local GW 64,466 11% LA Aqueduct 206,815 37% Recycled Water 6,706 1% MWD 297,945 51% Goal is to reduce our dependence on purchased supplemental imported water by 50 percent by 2035 or sooner Charts do not reflect 100,000 AF of existing conservation 11
