Analysis
MWDOC has secured the services of Water Systems Optimizations, Inc to assist member
agencies in identifying water losses within their systems MWDOC and its member agencies,
including the City of Huntington Beach, have begun developing Urban Water Management Plans
(UWMP) to be submitted to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) by July 2016 A
recent addition to the Urban Water Management Planning Act, SB 1420, requires water agencies to
complete and report a distribution system water balance in the UWMP Additionally, pending
legislation, Senate Bill 555, would require water agencies to submit a validated water balance to
DWR annually
This joint effort with MWDOC will help member agencies proactively address these new
requirements The consultant will provide technical assistance for preparation of distribution
system water audits, component analysis of the volume and value of real and apparent losses, help
locate and quantify leaks, and prepare the necessary report(s)
