SUMMARY: As of December 31, 2008, a total of 35.685 acre-feet (10.5%) of the Paralta Well allocation remained available for use by the jurisdictions.  Pre-Paralta water in the amount of 36.791 acre-feet is available to the jurisdictions, and 37.101 acre-feet is available as public water credits.

 

Exhibit 29-A shows the amount of water allocated to each jurisdiction from the Paralta Well Allocation, the quantities permitted in December 2008 (“changes”), and the quantities remaining.  The Paralta Allocation had nine debits during December 2008.

 

Exhibit 29-A also shows additional water credits available to each of the jurisdictions and the information regarding the Community Hospital of the Monterey Peninsula.  Any additional water credits for expired or canceled permits that were issued before January 1991 are shown as “PRE-Paralta Credits.”  Water credits used from a jurisdiction’s “public credit” account are also listed.  Transfers of commercial water credits into a jurisdiction’s allocation are included as “public credits.”  Exhibit 29-B shows the water entitlements for Quail Meadows, Pebble Beach Company, Del Monte Forest Benefited Properties, Macomber Estates, Griffin Trust, and Water West.

 

BACKGROUND:  The District’s Water Allocation Program, associated resource system supply limits, and jurisdictional allocations have been modified by a number of key ordinances.  These key ordinances are listed in Exhibit 29-C.
