KEY WORD: SCWA Agreement

DATE: January 21, 1997
DEPARTMENT:
Engineering Department
Thomas S. Hargis, Director of Engineering
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
Pass resolution authorizing Mayor or City Manager to sign Funding Agreement with
the Sonoma County Water Agency (SCWA) for the Petaluma Commercial Water
Conservation Program, First Project Year (1996-97), (non-residential toilet retrofit).
RECOMMENDATION:
Pass resolution.
BACKGROUND:
At the 10/21/96 City Council meeting, a presentation was made regarding the proposed
implementation of our water conservation program (see attached staff report).
The agreement, as prepared, provides that the Water Agency would provide over -site
consulting services, coordination of the program, and provide an additional $18,333 of
funding for the first year.
Staff feels that this is an appropriate method of implementing the program since the
SCWA is undertaking a service area -wide increased water conservation program and
their consultants of John Nelson and Ned Orrett are extremely well qualified in this
kind of program and have been involved in the preparation of the County's water
conservation program.
The City of Rohnert Park is also considering a concurrent residential toilet retrofit
program that may result in cost savings and greater efficiency for both cities. The
SCWA would be providing similar assistance to both cities.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Modify the structure for implementation.
2. Finance the project entirely locally without Water Agency financial and staff
assistance.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT ACTING:
Delay official implementation of the program
ACTION FOLLOWING AUTHORIZATION:
Sign contract with the Water Agency. Pursue implementation of toilet retrofits. The
consultants have been working on finding sites for a demonstration of the benefits of
non-residential toilet retrofits and possible grants or donations of facilities. These
would be installed at locations within the City that could be a reference for other
interested non-residential users.

Engineering Department
Thomas S. Hargis, Director of Engineering
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION:
Discuss proposed first year non-residential toilet retrofit program and provide direction
to staff as to its implementation.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve proposed program.
BACKGROUND:
See attached Water CIP and report titled "Plan of Work - City of Petaluma Water
Conservation Project". This is proposed as the fust of a three year non-residential
toilet retrofit program to be followed by a 10 year residential retrofit program.
The first year's budget is $165,000 with $100,000 for installations and $65,000 for
staff and consultants to get the program up and running. It is anticipated that the next
two years will involve significantly less administration costs. The initial program is
labor intensive to promote the installations, determine suitable businesses and
institutions and insure satisfactory installations.
This program is modified from the original in the water CIP to provide installations as
an alternative to cash rebates. Past experiences indicate greater success by providing
the plumbing fixtures installed by a city hired contractor.
It is estimated that the three year total program would result in an annual saving of
approximately 31 million gallons/year.
Sonoma County Water Agency (SCWA) staff and their consultant, John Nelson, will
be at the council meeting to present the program and answer questions.
ALTERNATIVES:
Expand program to include residential toilet retrofit.
Shrink initial project to insure cost effective installations.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT ACTING:
Delay implementation of program.

WATER CONSERVATION

PROJECT SCOPE
This project will implement various programs that will reduce the amounts of water used by the
customers ofPetaluma's Water Utility System, as well as the amount of water discharged to
Petaluma's Wastewater Treatment and Disposal System.
Programs will be implemented and applied to achieve the maximum benefit to cost ratio as
outlined in [lie 1995 Sonoma County Water Agency report entitled Water and Wastewater
EfjiciencylAvoided Cost Study prepared by the County's consultant. One goal of the project will
be to focus on achieving reductions of Sonoma County Water Agency seater used for irrigation,
by improving efficiencies thereby reducing peak demands on the water system. Another goal of
the project will be to promote replacement of inefficient water fixtures inside homes, businesses
and public facilities; thereby reducing flows to the City's wastewater treatment and disposal
system. The cost of the project is apportioned between the Water and Wastewater Utility funds in
proportion to their benefits. The main benefit for each system is reduced operational costs
resulting from less pumping and/or disposal of waste. This project's scope and focus will be
dynamic in that as conditions, costs and needs change, the project emphasis will change as well.
WATER CONSERVATION PROGRAMS
First 3 Years Proeram (FY 96-97 to FY 98-99)
Incentives for Commereialflndustrial/Public "foilet/Shower Replacement. Cash rebates would be
offered to encourage replacement of existing toilets and urinal_ valves in the
Commercial/Industrial/Public sectors that use more than 1.6 (toilets) and 1.0 (urinals) gallons per
flush. Low -flow showenccads could be replaced for all Commercial/Industrial/Public customers
that have significant numbers of showerheads (like schools). A ULF (ultra low flow) toilet is
estimated to save 15.0 gallons per day (gpd) per employee per toilet and 0.4 gpd per employee
per urinal replacement. This translates to a savings of 15.4 gallons per employee per day. No
savings are assumed for showerhead replacement, although showenccads can be significant water
users in certain situations. This has highest benefit/cost ratio for Petaluma area alternatives with a
projec(ed savings are 100 acre feet (31 million gallons) of water per year.
Start Proeram In 4th Year MY 99-00). Thereafter For Next 10 vears
Ultra Low -Flush Toilet Replacement. The City would implement a toilet replacement program
offering rebates to customers who replace their high water -use toilets with 1.6 gallons per flush
(gpi) models. Approximately 25 percent of all toilets would be replaced with rebates over a ten-
year period. Implementation of this measure would create increased savings in the short term
because the low -flow fixtures are installed sooner than the natural replacement rate. The natural
replacement covers toilers voluntarily replaced in conjunction with bathroom remodeling. Over
the long run, no total increase in savings would occur, however, since the federal Energy Policy
Act mandates that only 1.6 gpf toilets carr be sold. Eventually, all toilets will be replaced with 1.6
gpf models. The estimated savings for this measure is 14.6 percent of interior use which converts
to a savings of 25 acre feet (6.8 million gallons) of water per year.
