CITY OF BURBANK
2026-27 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM

REQUEST FOR FUNDING PROPOSALS FOR PUBLIC SERVICES AND

CAPITAL PROJECTS
Project/Program Summary
Organization Name: Family Service Agency of Burbank
Project/Program Name: FSA Security Rehab
Project/Program Selection: (If an entity is considering in applying for multiple programs, an individual proposal must be submitted separately for each activity.) Capital Project
Applicant Type: Non-Profit or For-Profit Organization
Total Amount Requested from CDBG only: $15000

1. Project/Program Description: Describe the project/program you intend to operate using CDBG funding.

The primary objective of this project is to replace the outdated and no-longer- economically-repairable security system at Family Service Agency of Burbank (FSA) with a modern, reliable safety infrastructure that ensures the protection of clients, staff, and facility assets — particularly those seeking mental health services, opioid recovery support, domestic violence interventions (including emergency housing and FSA’s -and Burbank’s only- long-term transitional housing for families fleeing domestic violence), who are often homeless or at risk of homelessness. For each of those, a secure, trauma-informed environment is essential to stability, recovery, and long-term success.

Without a dependable security system, there is an increased risk of unauthorized access, disruption of services, and compromised confidentiality — factors that can deter vulnerable individuals from seeking help. Replacing the system will strengthen safety for those we serve and directly support our mission to help individuals and families secure and maintain stable housing, mental health services, and all of the support services FSA offers to the community.

For more than 70 years, FSA has provided services to vulnerable individuals and families in our community. For the last 20 years, in our building on Burbank Blvd. At this time, our space is not dependably secure. Our system is old, breaking down and beyond repair. We all understand the need to have a secure and safe space, and even more so when dealing with vulnerable populations. We were also told that our system will soon cease to function due to its age and antiquated components, thus necessitating this update as soon as possible. Our building is leased to us by the City of Burbank, who owns the property, while we maintain the property. The security system is our financial responsibility to update per contract and outside of what we can currently afford. We obtained multiple estimates and came to a consensus for the cost to be approximately $15,000.

ATTACHMENT 3 - 68
734
If approved, we can move to choosing a system and provider, then move to set up an installations schedule. We are told it will take 2 months to complete.

2. Project/Program Activities: Describe the activities you intend to provide using the CDBG funds.

FSA believes that all individuals and families should live a life that is safe, healthy, and meaningful and that is what we strive to accomplish through our therapeutic, violence intervention, substance recovery, educational, and advocacy services. A new security system will allow us to do so in a safe and secure environment which is essential to client success.

Specific activities would include assessing proposed systems to determine which is most suitable and cost effective, signing contract with company, and having system installed, as well as any training needed for staff to fully utilize the new system.

We hold great appreciation for our continued partnership, and the City of Burbank’s visionary leadership, and we hope that this will be a capital request that you will agree is vital to the community. With that, we are humbly requesting $15,000

3. Project/Program Time of Performance: Describe your proposed schedule of performance and associated activities using CDBG funds.

The installation will take approximately two months and will last several decades, as did the last.

4. Project/Program Outcomes: Describe your proposed outcomes that will result in a community benefit to low-to moderate-income households using CDBG funds.

A modern, reliable safety infrastructure that ensures the protection of clients, staff, and facility assets — particularly those who seeking mental health services, domestic violence interventions, opioid recovery support, or at risk of homelessness. For e ach of those, a secure, trauma -informed environment is essential to stability, recovery, and long-term success for decades to come.

CITY OF BURBANK
2026-27 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM

REQUEST FOR FUNDING PROPOSALS FOR PUBLIC SERVICES AND

CAPITAL PROJECTS
Project/Program Summary
Organization Name: Home Again Los Angeles
Project/Program Name: Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center Project/Program Selection: (If an entity is considering in applying for multiple programs, an individual proposal must be submitted separately for each activity.) Capital Project
Applicant Type: Non-Profit or For-Profit Organization
Total Amount Requested from CDBG only: $153360

1. Project/Program Description: Describe the project/program you intend to operate using CDBG funding.

Home Again LA is seeking $153,360 from the CDBG Capital funding from the City of Burbank to help with the rehabilitation costs for the Buena Vista Remodel Project, which will convert a former City of Burbank fire station into the Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center. This innovative project will transform an underutilized public facility into a welcoming, trauma-informed hub of support for homeless and low-income families in the Burbank community.

The Access Center will serve as a centralized point of entry for low-income households in Burbank, helping prevent homelessness whenever possible and rapidly re-house families who are already experiencing housing instability. By investing in the rehabilitation of this facility, the City of Burbank will help create a sustainable, community-based solution that strengthens families, reduces homelessness, and maximizes the use of existing public assets for public good.

2. Project/Program Activities: Describe the activities you intend to provide using the CDBG funds.

Once completed, estimated Spring 2027, the Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center will provide short-term housing for four homeless families at one time, along with comprehensive access to critical resources that promote housing stability and long- term self-sufficiency. Families and individuals will receive coordinated support services including housing navigation, employment assistance, financial counseling, and connections to public benefits and community resources.

With the funding we are respectfully requesting we will be able to cover the complete ATTACHMENT 3 - 73
739

3. Project/Program Time of Performance: Describe your proposed schedule of performance and associated activities using CDBG funds.

The Buena Vista Remodel Project, which will establish the Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center, is scheduled to begin in Spring 2026, with project completion anticipated by Spring 2027. The overall renovation timeline is projected to span approximately 12 to 14 months, allowing for phased construction, inspections, and final occupancy readiness.

CDBG funds requested from the City of Burbank will be utilized throughout the renovation period to help offset eligible rehabilitation expenses associated with converting the former fire station into a functional, code-compliant, and family-friendly access center. These funds will support renovation activities including, but not limited to, interior and exterior improvements, accessibility upgrades, safety enhancements, and systems improvements necessary for short-term housing and service delivery.

Renovation activities will be implemented in phases, beginning with site preparation and structural improvements, followed by mechanical, electrical, and plumbing upgrades, interior build-out, and final finishes. The use of CDBG funds will be aligned with project milestones and disbursed as expenses are incurred over the course of construction.

Upon completion in Spring 2027, the Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center will be fully operational and prepared to serve homeless and low-income families in the Burbank community, providing short-term housing and access to critical housing stabilization services.

4. Project/Program Outcomes: Describe your proposed outcomes that will result in a community benefit to low-to moderate-income households using CDBG funds.

The Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center will generate meaningful and measurable community benefits for low- and moderate-income households by expanding access to housing stability, essential resources, and supportive services within the City of Burbank.

By repurposing a former fire station into a centralized access center, this project directly advances the CDBG national objective of benefiting low -income households while strengthening the city’s homelessness response system.

Upon opening, the Access Center will provide short-term housing for homeless families, creating a safe and stable environment that allows families to focus on securing permanent housing and employment. Families served will receive individualized case management and housing navigation services designed to rapidly connect them to long- term housing solutions, reducing the length of time families experience homelessness.

In addition to short -term housing, the Access Center will function as a community resource hub for low -income households in Burbank. Individuals and families will have access to critical services including housing assistance, employment support, financial education, benefits enrollment, and referrals to partner agencies. By offering these services in one centralized location, the Access Center will reduce barriers to access, improve service coordination, and increase successful outcomes for households at ri sk of homelessness.

The project will also contribute to homelessness prevention, helping stabilize low-income households before they enter the homeless system. Early intervention and access to ATTACHMENT 3 - 74
740
financial and housing resources will support families in maintaining housing stability, which in turn reduces demand on emergency services and other public systems.

Overall, the Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center will strengthen the community by promoting family stability, reducing homelessness, and improving quality of life for low - income residents. The long-term impact of this project will be a healthier, more resi lient Burbank community where vulnerable families are supported, stabilized, and empowered to achieve self-sufficiency.

8. Does your organization have the system structure to collect and maintain demographic information for purposes of quarterly reporting? Yes

Please describe your system of collecting the data (i.e. intake applications, web- based applications, etc.).

Home Again Los Angeles utilizes intake applications to conduct our initial assessment of client needs. Once that information is captured we place that data into our Homeless ATTACHMENT 3 - 75 741
Management Information System (HMIS). That software allows us to generate reports which we can pull and provide to our funders upon request.

The Homeless Access Center will prioritize Burbank households for all services provided. However, if an unhoused family seeks assistance and all eligible Burbank households on the waitlist have been served, Home Again LA will extend services to that family to ensure that available resources are used effectively and no family in need is turned away when capacity allows.

10. Measurable Outcomes: Please provide performance goals, proposed outcomes (deliverables) and activities your organization expects to achieve in a 12-month period with the use of CDBG funds.

10.A Goal: Provide safe, stable short-term housing for homeless families in Burbank to reduce the duration and impact of family homelessness.

Deliverable: Completion and operation of the Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center with capacity to serve homeless families in short-term housing.

Activity: Rehabilitate the former fire station through CDBG-eligible renovation activities, including safety upgrades, accessibility improvements, and interior build-out necessary to support short-term family housing and on-site services.

10.B Goal: Support low-income households in achieving housing stability and progress toward self-sufficiency through coordinated services.

Deliverable: Provision of individualized case management, housing navigation, employment support, and financial assistance referrals to households served at the Access Center.

Activity: Deliver comprehensive case management services, connect families to permanent housing opportunities, assist with employment and income stabilization, and provide referrals to public benefits and community-based resources

10.C Goal: Prevent homelessness among low-income Burbank households by providing early intervention and centralized access to critical resources.

Deliverable: Operation of a centralized community access point offering housing stabilization services, workshops, and referrals to partner agencies for low-income households.

Activity: Conduct intake and assessment, provide housing and financial education workshops, and coordinate referrals to local service providers to help households resolve housing crises before they result in homelessness.

The total cost of the Buena Vista Remodel Project is $6,181,142. Home Again LA is directly investing $1.2 million toward this project through monetary contributions and donated materials dedicated exclusively to the Burbank HALA Homeless Access Center.

The requested $153,360 in CDBG funds will be used to help offset increased rehabilitation costs that have occurred since the initial project estimate due to rising construction and material expenses over time. These costs are reflected in the final, contractor-provided budget, which represents the full and complete scope of work required to complete the renovation.

The current project budget is based on finalized construction pricing, and no further cost increases are anticipated. CDBG funding will serve as critical gap funding to ensure the project remains fully funded and proceeds to completion as scheduled without compromising scope, quality, or timeline.

12. Did your organization receive funding for the previous program year for the same program? No

13. If your organization received funding for the previous year, but the program is different, please briefly explain how:

2026-27 COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM

REQUEST FOR FUNDING PROPOSALS FOR PUBLIC SERVICES AND

CAPITAL PROJECTS
Project/Program Summary
Organization Name: Kids' Community Clinic of Burbank
Project/Program Name: Capital Improvements for 400 W Elmwood Project/Program Selection: (If an entity is considering in applying for multiple programs, an individual proposal must be submitted separately for each activity.) Capital Project
Applicant Type: Non-Profit or For-Profit Organization
Total Amount Requested from CDBG only: $50000

1. Project/Program Description: Describe the project/program you intend to operate using CDBG funding.

Project: We are requesting capital funding to replace the failing roof at the Kids' Community Dental Clinic located at 400 W. Elmwood Ave. Burbank 91506. This important infrastructure project will secure the facility, ensuring uninterrupted services for low income families including children, plus adults who will start a workforce training program with Burbank Adult School in Fall 2026 (adults who are trying seeking employment) and this repair will provide long-term operational sustainability. This building will be used for dental treatments through 2026 and part of 2027 until our license is moved to another location. After that, this building will be used in a collaboration with the Burbank Unified School District's Adult School to host dental assisting students at this site on an ongoing basis indefinitely.

2. Project/Program Activities: Describe the activities you intend to provide using the CDBG funds.

The existing roof has exceeded its useful life of 18 years and while it is not yet leaking, it has lost shingles in a recent wind storm, and expensive equipment are in every room of the building and we cannot risk damage to dental equipment. As documented in the enclosed Cannon Construction estimate, recent assessments have identified [specific issues, e.g., significant water damage, structural compromise, mold risk] that pose an immediate threat to the health and safety of our residents/clients. Failure to address this capital need will result in a temporary closure to our patients, volunteer dentists, and students.

3. Project/Program Time of Performance: Describe your proposed schedule of performance and associated activities using CDBG funds.

July 2026 through June 2027
ATTACHMENT 3 - 79 745
Roof to be constructed depending on availability of materials, vendors, and school schedules so children are not in the area when the construction is scheduled (preferably over a break or holiday when the building is not needed for patients or students).

4. Project/Program Outcomes: Describe your proposed outcomes that will result in a community benefit to low-to moderate-income households using CDBG funds.

The proposed roof repair project will ensure a safe and risk-free dental clinic environment for all our patients in and beyond Burbank and will also benefit the city and schools of Burbank by providing good stewardship of city resources in the building KCD C rents.

KCDC’s patient demographic all fall under 200% FPL so by ensuring the good working order of our current leased space through BUSD, the project continues to meet the needs of this vulnerable population.

8. Does your organization have the system structure to collect and maintain demographic information for purposes of quarterly reporting? Yes

Please describe your system of collecting the data (i.e. intake applications, web- based applications, etc.).

KCDC has a web-based practice management system called "Open Dental" that retains all patient information, appointment
scheduling, xrays, treatment planned, executed, and pending, patient notes, medical information.

For work accomplished outside our clinic, we collect basic results of the screening for our database and leave
the student information results with the school nurse for follow up contact.

We will utilize BUSD Adult School's system of registration and student tracking.

Burbank residents make up the majority of the clinic patients and programs for children.

In 2024, we served 14,438 individuals with most from local Burbank Schools, parks, and non-profit
organizations.

Generally, KCDC provides services at schools located in Burbank surrounding communities and the majority of patients are currently Burbank residents.

For Burbank Adult school students, we anticipate that 100% of the students will be Burbank residents who will utilize this space.

10. Measurable Outcomes: Please provide performance goals, proposed outcomes (deliverables) and activities your organization expects to achieve in a 12-month period with the use of CDBG funds.

10.A The proposed project involves the full replacement of the existing roofing system with a shingle roof to ensure a durable and lasting solution on this site. Our objectives are:

To install a code-compliant, weather-tight roofing system within 6 months of funding receipt (subject to availability of materials, vendors, and school schedules - so children are not in the area when the construction is scheduled (preferably over a break or holiday when the building is not needed for patients or students).

10.B To protect the building's interior infrastructure by eliminating the risk of health and safety hazards during the use of the building for the staff, providers, volunteers, ATTACHMENT 3 - 81
747
families, patients, students and enable to continuous delivery of either dental treatments for children, dental assistant training or both.

10.C This investment is a long-term solution that ensures the building's structural integrity for the next 20 years, providing a stable foundation for the Kids' Community Dental Clinic to continue its vital mission of providing free and low cost dental treatments for children.

Lastly, KCDC's goal is to operate without disruption for 20 more years in this location to see patients and provide space with dental equipment for students to learn about dentistry and how to be valuable in the dental field.

Our intent is to utilize the full amount of this grant to complete this roof project. We have many different grant proposals at various stages for various dental programs, but this is the only grant request for the 400 W. Elmwood building.

(c) Public facilities and improvements. Acquisition, construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or installation of public facilities and improvements, except as provided in § 570.207(a), carried out by the recipient or other public or private nonprofit entities. (However, activities under this paragraph may be directed to the removal of material and architectural barriers that restrict the mobility and accessibility of elderly or severely disabled persons to public facilities and improvements, including those provided for in § 570.207(a)(1) .) In undertaking such activities, design features and improvements which promote energy efficiency may be included. Such activities may also include the execution of architectural design features, and similar treatments intended to enhance the aesthetic quality of facilities and improvements receiving CDBG assistance, such as decorative pavements, railings, sculptures, pools of water and fountains, and other works of art. Facilities designed for use in providing shelter for persons having special needs are considered public facilities and not subject to the prohibition of new housing construction described in § 570.207(b)(3) . Such facilities include shelters for the homeless; convalescent homes; hospitals, nursing homes; battered spouse shelters; halfway houses for run- away children, drug offenders or parolees; group homes for mentally retarded persons and temporary housing for disaster victims. In certain cases, nonprofit entities and subrecipients including those specified in § 570.204 may acquire title to public facilities.

SUBJECT: Adoption of a Resolution Approv ing and Adopting the 2025 Urban Water Management Plan and Water Shortage Contingency Plan

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURBANK APPROVING AND ADOPTING THE 2025 URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN AND THE WATER SHORTAGE CONTINGENCY PLAN (Attachment 1).

BACKGROUND
The California Urban Water Management Planning Act, Water Code § 10610 through §10657, requires many urban water suppliers to assess the reliability of their water sources every five years over a 20-year planning horizon through the preparation of an Urban Water Management Plan ( UWMP). A plan must be prepared by suppliers who provide over 3,000 acre-feet (AF) of water annually or serve 3,000 or more connections.

The City of Burbank (City) must prepare a UWMP because the City has over 26,000 water service connections and supplies more than 16,000 acre-feet ( AF) of potable water annually. The Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) must also submit a UWMP. MWD uses all of the data provided by its 26 member agencies to create its UWMP.

In response to the severe statewide drought of 2012– 2016, legislation enacted in 2018 created new requirements related to the preparation and adoption of Water Shortage

WATER AND
POWER
Michelle Elorde
Melissa Hourany
Public Hearing
Item #2

2 UWMP, and any time a WSCP is formally amended, pursuant to California Water Code §10640(b).

DISCUSSION
Plans were completed by all required agencies at the end of 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, and 2005, with subsequent updates in 2010, 2015, and 2020 in accordance with S tate requirements. The 2025 UWMP is due to the State by July 1, 2026.

All 2025 UWMPs reflect current state requirements and emphasize long- term water supply reliability, including evaluation of supplies and demands under normal, single-dry, and multiple-dry year conditions.

All UWMPs must also contain a WSCP , which is a state -required component of the UWMP and serves as a planning and response framework for potential water supply shortages.

Burbank is 100% reliant on imported water supplies from MWD , the regional wholesaler responsible for long- term water supply planning across Southern California. MWD’s UWMP relies on its Climate Adaptation Master Plan to address current and future conditions affecting the State Water Project and Colorado River system, as well as planned improvements to regional infrastructure that enhance system reliability. MWD’s water supply projections are dependent on the continued implementation of regional supply progr ams, including member agency projects that expand recycled water use, desalination, and water transfers, which are supported through MWD’s Local Resources Program.

MWD’s UWMP demonstrates supply reliability under current planning assumptions, which include the continued implementation of regional supply programs, expansion of recycled water, and development of local resources, including water recycling, groundwater recovery, and seawater desalination. Burbank’s efforts to advance projects such as potable reuse, desalination, and water exchanges are consistent with and supportive of this regional reliability strategy. Based on these regional assessments, the Plan concludes that Burbank’s projected demands can be reliably met through at least 2050 under normal, single-dry, and multiple-dry year conditions. Burbank’s overall water supply portfolio also includes local groundwater production and recycled water, and is expected to expand to include additional supplies from potable reuse, desalination, and regional water exchanges.

Staff prepared the 2025 UWMP, which includes the WSCP (Attachment 1) . The Plans were developed in coordination with the MWD to ensure consistency in supply and Contingency Plans (WSCPs). These plans must be submitted to the State with the 2025 806
3 comments received from the Planning Division were reviewed and incorporated as appropriate.

COMMUNITY OUTREACH
Pursuant to California Water Code §10642, public involvement and comments have been solicited th rough BWP’s website. Further, the proposed UWMP and WSCP were presented to the Burbank Water and Power Board on June 4, 2026. Council is required to formally adopt the plan by resolution, after which it will be submitted to the California Department of Water Resources , the California State Library, and the County of Los Angeles.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Adoption of the 2025 UWMP and WSCP are statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to California Water Code § 10652, which provides that CEQA does not apply to the preparation and adoption of plans pursuant to Part 2.6 of Division 6 of the California Water Code, including UWMPs and WSCPs.

Therefore, no further environmental review is required at this time.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

CONCLUSION
The 2025 UWMP (including the WSCP) meets all statutory requirements and demonstrates that the City’s water supplies are sufficient to reliably meet projected demands through at least 2050 under normal, single- dry, and multiple- dry year conditions, consistent with regional planning assumptions.

Forecasted demand growth is primarily associated with new developments needed to achieve the City’s housing goals, with moderate growth across other sectors. The City will continue to support long- term reliability through ongoing conservation practices, infrastructure investment, expanded use of recycled water , and advancement of local supply projects.

A RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
BURBANK APPROVING AND ADOPTING THE 2025 URBAN

WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN AND THE WATER

SHORTAGE CONTINGENCY PLAN

THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF BURBANK FINDS:

A. The Urban Water Management Planning Act ( Cal. Water Code Section 10610 et seq.; hereinafter “the Act ”) mandates that every supplier providing water for municipal purposes to more than 3,000 customers or supplying more than 3,000 acre feet of water annually, prepare and adopt an Urban Water Management Plan (“UWMP”), the primary objectives of which are to evaluate water supplies and demands, including the reliability of supplies, to plan for the conservation and efficient use of water, and to prepare for water shortages . Further, urban water suppliers must prepare and adopt a Water Shortage Contingency Plan ( “WSCP”) as part of the UWMP to address potential water supply shortages from drought or other impacts to water supply availability.

B. The City of Burbank is an urban water supplier providing water to a population of over 100,000 through over 26,000 water service connections and is required to prepare and adopt a UWMP and WSCP pursuant to the Act.

C. The Act provides that the UWMP and WSCP be reviewed and updated at least once every five years, in years ending in five and zero, and that the City make any changes or amendments to the Plans which are indicated by the review.

D. Any such changes or amendments to the UWMP and WSCP must be adopted by July 1, 2026 , after public review and hearing, and filed with the California Department of Water Resources , the California State Library and the County of Los Angeles within thirty (30) days of adoption.

E. The City has prepared and circulated for public review the draft 2025 UWMP, which updates and replaces the 2020 Plan, and includes the City’s updated 2025 WSCP as required by statute.

F. A duly noticed public hearing regarding such changes or amendments to the proposed 2025 UWMP and WSCP was held by the City Council on June 16, 2026. Notice of the hearing was published in accordance with California Water Code Section 10642.

LAY DESCRIPTION

This 2025 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP or Plan) is prepared for City of Burbank ( Burbank or City), which serves approximately 17,565 acre-feet (AF) of water to a population of 106,146. Burbank meets the definition of an urban water supplier. 1 Therefore, in accordance with California Water Code (CWC) §10621(e), Burbank is obligated to develop and submit a UWMP to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) by 1 July 2026.

This UWMP serves as a foundational planning document and includes descriptions of historical and projected water demands and supplies, and the resulting reliability during a set of defined water supply conditions over a minimum 20-year planning horizon. This Plan also describes the actions Burbank is taking to promote water conservation (referred to as “demand management measures”), and includes a Water Shortage Contingency Plan (WSCP) to address potential water supply shortages from drought or other impacts to supply availability. This Plan is updated every five years in accordance with state requirements under the UWMP Act and amendments (Division 6 Part 2.6 of the CWC §10610 – 10657).

Past plans developed for Burbank are available on the DWR Water Use Efficiency (WUE) Data Portal website: https://wuedata.water.ca.gov/.

Pursuant to the requirements of the CWC §10630.5, this lay description provides a simple summary of this UWMP. This Plan includes 10 sections, which are summarized below.

Section 1 UWMP Introduction
This section presents the background and purpose of the UWMP, describes the Plan organization, and provides an overview of the Plan. Burbank’s water supply portfolio includes a combination of treated and untreated raw imported water purchased from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD), groundwater from the San Fernando Basin (SFB), and recycled water from the Burbank Wat er Reclamation Plant (BWRP). Imported supplies are subject to regional variability, including uncertainties associated with the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta (Delta) and Colorado River conditions, as further described in later reliability sections . Because purchased water comes from the Delta, this section also demonstrates consistency with The Delta Plan by the Delta Stewardship Council.

Section 2 Plan Preparation
This section discusses key structural aspects related to the preparation of th is UWMP, and describes the coordination and outreach conducted as part of the Plan’s preparation, including coordination with local agencies (i.e., Los Angeles County, Glendale Water & Power , and Los Angeles Department of Water and Power [LADWP]), and the public.

1 Per CWC §10617, “urban water supplier” means a supplier, either publicly or privately owned, providing water for municipal purposes either directly or indirectly to more than 3,000 customers or supplying more than 3,000 AF of water annually.
 CWC §10630.5
Each plan shall include a simple lay description of how much water the agency has on a reliable basis, how much it needs for the foreseeable future, what the agency’s strategy is for meeting its water needs, the challenges facing the agency, and any other information necessary to provide a general understanding of the agency’s plan.

Section 3 Service Area Description
This section provides a description of Burbank’s water system and service area, including information related to the climate, population, and demographics. Burbank is located in Los Angeles County and has a climate characterized by a Mediterranean climate with cool, wet winters and warm, dry summers. It is estimated that Burbank has a population of 106,146 in 2025, and it is anticipated that the service area population will increase to approximately 156,624 by 2050, assuming that the full development contemplated in two of the City’s specific plans is achieved by 2035. The City is planning for residential and commercial growth, including mixed-use development (i.e., residential/commercial/retail). New residential development will be predominantly multi-family residential.

Section 4 Water Use Characterization
This section provides a description and quantifies Burbank’s current and projected demands through the year 2050. Burbank provides drinking water (also referred to as “potable water”) and recycled water (also referred to as “non-potable water”) to meet potable and non-potable demands. Water demands refer not only to the water used by customers, but also includes the water used as part of the system’s maintenance and operation, as well as unavoidable losses inherent in the operation of a water distribution system.

Total water demand within the Burbank service area was 17,167 AF in 2025.2 Taking into account historical water use, expected population changes, and conservation, water demand is projected to increase to 31,094 AF by 2050 under normal hydrologic conditions, assuming that the full development contemplated in two of the City’s specific plans is achieved by 2035.

Section 5 SB X7-7 Baseline, 2020 Target, and 2025 Reporting The Water Conservation Act of 2009 (SB X7-7), enacted in November 2009, required the State to achieve a 20% reduction in urban per capita water use by December 2020 and directed retail suppliers to establish an urban water-use target (2020 Target) to support this goal. Because the CWC does not set an end date for reporting progress toward the 2020 Target, this section documents Burbank’s compliance with SB X7- 7 as of 2020. Burbank is not a member of a “Regional Alliance” and was not part of a service area merger or consolidation after 2020. In July 2024, the State enacted the Making Conservation a California Way of Life (MCCWL) regulation to promote long-term water conservation and drought resilience beyond SB X7-

7. MCCWL established annual Urban Water Use Objectives (UWUO) for water suppliers. B ecause compliance with the UWUO requirements falls under the authority of the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), UWUO projections are not included herein.

Section 6 Normal Year Water Supply Characterization
This section presents an analysis of Burbank’s water supplies over a minimum 20 -year planning horizon under normal hydrologic conditions. The Burbank service area relies on groundwater, purchased or imported water, and recycled water. In 2025, Burbank’s water supplies were 3,365 AF of treated water purchased from MWD, 11,269 AF of groundwater from the SFB, and 2,930 AF of non -potable recycled water from the BWRP, totaling 17,565 AF.2 Burbank did not spread any raw water from MWD in 2025 due to infrastructure upgrades and quagga mussel contamination in the untreated MWD water. This section also provides an estimate of water -related energy consumption.

system, and does not include the energy used to treat wastewater. The energy intensity for Burbank is estimated to be 351 kilowatt hours per acre-foot of water (kWh/AF).

Section 7 Water Supply Reliability and Drought Risk Assessment This section assesses the reliability of Burbank’s water supplies, with a specific focus on potential constraints such as water supply availability, water quality, and climate change. The intent of this section is to identify any potential constraints that could affect the reliability of Burbank ’s supply to support Burbank’s planning efforts to ensure that customer demands are met. Water service reliability is assessed during normal, single dry-year, and multiple dry-year hydrologic conditions consistent with the reliability analyses conducted by MWD in its 2025 UWMP. MWD’s long-term supply planning incorporates assumptions for Colorado River and Delta supply reliability, local supply availability, demand forecasts, storage facilities, and climate risks . Based on this analysis, Burbank expects the available groundwater, purchased treated and untreated raw water, and recycled water supplies to be sufficient to meet projected demands in all hydrologic conditions, including a five -year drought period. Further, potential water quality risks are actively monitored and Burbank is able to make all appropriate adjustments to its treatment and distribution system to ensure only high quality drinking water is served.

Section 8 Water Shortage Contingency Planning
This section is Burbank’s WSCP, which serves as a standalone document to be engaged in the case of a water shortage event, such as a drought, infrastructure failure, regulatory mandates, or catastrophic natural or human-caused events. The WSCP identifies policies and actions Burbank will implement under varying shortage conditions to protect health and human safety, minimize economic disruption, and preserve environmental and community assets. Consistent with DWR requirements, Burbank has adopted six standard water shortage stages to address shortage conditions ranging from up to 10% to greater than 50%.

Section 9 Demand Management Measures
This section includes descriptions of past and planned conservation programs that Burbank operates within each demand management measure (DMM) category outlined in the UWMP Act, including:
(1) water waste prevention ordinances, (2) metering, (3) conservation pricing, (4) public education and outreach, (5) distribution system water loss management, (6) water conservation program coordination and staffing support, and (7) “other” DMMs. These DMMs have contributed to Burbank’s compliance with its 2020 Target and are anticipated to continue to support Burbank in complying with MCCWL requirements.

Section 10 Plan Adoption, Submittal, and Implementation This section provides information on the notice of Plan preparation and public hearing, the public hearing and adoption process, Plan implementation, and procedures for amending the adopted UWMP and WSCP.

Prior to adopti on, Burbank held a formal public hearing on 16 June 2026, at 6 :00 p.m., to present the UWMP and WSCP. This UWMP and WSCP were submitted to DWR within 30 days of adoption and by the 1 July 2026 deadline.

1 UWMP INTRODUCTION
This section discusses the importance and uses of this Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP or Plan), the relationship of this Plan to the California Water Code (CWC), the relationship of this Plan to other local and regional planning efforts, and how this Plan is organized and developed in general accordance with the California Department of Water Resources’ (DWR) 2025 UWMP Guidebook. 3 1.1 Background and Purpose
The City of Burbank (Burbank or City) is an urban water supplier that provides service to 26,827 metered connections, both potable and recycled , in a service area of approximately 17 square miles within Los Angeles County.4
This UWMP is a foundational document and source of information about Burbank’s historical and projected water demands, water supplies, supply reliability and potential vulnerabilities, water shortage contingency planning, and demand management programs. Among other things, it is used as:
• A long-range planning document for water supply and system planning; and • A source for data on population, housing, water demands, water supplies, and capital improvement projects used in:
o Regional water resource management plans prepared by wholesale water suppliers and other regional planning authorities (as applicable);
o General Plans prepared by cities and counties; and
o Statewide and broad regional water resource plans prepared by DWR, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB), or other state agencies.

Burbank’s last UWMP was completed in 2021 , referred to herein as the “20 20 UWMP.” This Plan is an update to the 2020 UWMP, carries forward information from that plan that remains current and relevant, and provides additional information as required by subsequent amendments to the UWMP Act (CWC §10610-10657). Although this Plan is an update to the 20 20 UWMP, it was developed to be a self- contained, stand-alone document and does not require readers to reference information contained in previous UWMP updates.

1.2 Urban Water Management Planning and the CWC
The UWMP Act requires urban water suppliers to prepare a UWMP every five years and to submit this plan to the DWR, the California State Library, and any city or county within which the supplier provides water supplies. All urban water suppliers, either publicly or privately owned, providing water for municipal purposes either directly or indirectly to more than 3,000 customers or supplying more than 3,000 acre- feet (AF) annually are required to prepare a UWMP (CWC §10617).

The UWMP Act was enacted in 1983. Over the years it has been amended in response to water resource challenges and planning imperatives confronting California. A significant amendment was made in 2009

3 The 2025 UWMP Guidebook is available at: https://water.ca.gov/-/media/DWR-Website/Web- Pages/Programs/Water-Use-And-Efficiency/Urban-Water-Use-Efficiency/Urban-Water-Management-Plans/Final- 2025-UWMP-Guidebook/Final-2025-UWMP-Guidebook-Accessible.pdf 4 In this UWMP, “Burbank” refers to the urban water supplier, whereas references to the “City” denote the municipal jurisdiction itself.

as a result of the governor’s call for a statewide 20% reduction in urban water use by 2020, referred to as the Water Conservation Act of 2009, or “SB X7-7.” This amendment required urban retail water suppliers to establish water use targets for 2015 and 2020 that would result in statewide water savings of 20% by 2020. Beginning in 2016, urban retail water suppliers were required to comply with the water conservation requirements in SB X7 -7 in order to be eligible for state water grants or loans. Section 5 of this Plan contains the data and calculations used to determine compliance with these requirements.

In 2016, Governor Brown signed Executive Order B -37-16 Making Conservation a California Way of Life (MCCWL) and subsequently Senate Bill (SB) 606 and Assembly Bill (AB) 1668 were passed. SB 606/AB 1668 added new requirements related to drought planning, including: (1) additional requirements for Water Shortage Contingency Plans (WSCP) (CWC §10640), (2) requirements for urban water suppliers to conduct a drought risk assessments as part of their future UWMPs to assess water supply reliability for a period of drought lasting five consecutive water years (CWC §10635(b)), and (3) suppliers to conduct annual water supply and demand assessments to determine their water supply reliability for the current year and one dry year (CWC §10632(a)). These elements are included in Sect ion 7 and Section 8 of this Plan.

Additionally, SB 606/AB 1668 set new requirements for urban water agencies to continue to increase water efficiency beyond SB X7-7. Beginning in 2024, agencies were also required to report an annual Urban Water Use Objective (UWUO). However, because compliance with the UWUO requirements falls under the authority of the SWRCB, it is not included in this Plan.

The UWMP Act contains numerous other requirements that a UWMP must satisfy. Appendix A lists each of these requirements and where in the Plan they are addressed.

1.3 UWMP Organization
The organization of this Plan follows the same sequence as outlined in the 2025 UWMP Guidebook. • Section 1 UWMP Introduction
• Section 2 Plan Preparation
• Section 3 Service Area Description
• Section 4 Water Use Characterization
• Section 5 SB X7-7 Baseline, 2020 Target, and 2025 Reporting • Section 6 Normal Year Water Supply Characterization
• Section 7 Water Supply Reliability and Drought Risk Assessment • Section 8 Water Shortage Contingency Planning
• Section 9 Demand Management Measures
• Section 10 Plan Adoption, Submittal, and Implementation In addition to these section s, this Plan includes appendices providing supporting documentation and supplemental information. Pursuant to CWC §10644(a)(2), this Plan utilizes the standardized forms, tables, and displays developed by DWR for the reporting of water use and supply information required by the UWMP Act. This Plan also includes additional tables, figures, and maps to augment the set developed by DWR, as appropriate. The table headers indicate if the table is part of DWR’s standardized set of submittal tables. An overall lay description of the UWMP, including information related to water service reliability, potential issues, and strategies for managing reliability risks, is provided at the beginning of this UWMP.

1.4 UWMP Relationship to Other Efforts
This Plan provides information specific to water management and planning within Burbank’s service area.

However, water management does not happen in isolation; there are other planning processes that integrate with the UWMP to accomplish urban planning. Some of these relevant planning documents include:
• 2024 Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP /SCS; referred to as Connect SoCal) . Provides a comprehensive, long-range transportation and land use plan for the Southern California region prepared by the SCAG. The plan describes regional transportation investments, growth strategies, and sustainability policies, and evaluates how these efforts will improve mobility, enhance equity, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions through the planning horizon. • 1997 Integrated Water Resources Plan. Provides an assessment of Burbank’s water supplies and forecasts future demands. Information from this plan has been incorporated into subsequent UWMPs starting in 2000.
• 2025 Metropolitan Water District of Southern California’s (MWD) UWMP . Presents a comprehensive water management plan for Burbank’s wholesale water provider MWD. The plan includes a description of the wholesaler’s water supplies and demands and an assessment of its supply reliability into the future.

This Plan was also prepared in close coordination with the City’s Community Development and Public Works departments and is integrated with the City’s broader planning efforts, including the Burbank2035 General Plan, which informs land use planning. Burbank also coordinated with MWD, as further described in Section 2.5.1, to ensure consistency between Burbank’s and MWD’s 2025 UWMPs.

1.5 Special Considerations
This Plan includes information beyond the requirements of the UWMP Act to support other regulatory processes that rely on UWMP data, including the Delta Plan and permitting for ocean desalination projects.

1.5.1 Demonstration of Consistency with The Delta Plan for Participants in Covered Actions Although not required by the UWMP Act, in the 2025 UWMP Guidebook, DWR recommends that all suppliers that are participating in, or may participate in, receiving water from a proposed project that is considered a “covered action” under The Delta Plan by the Delta Stewardship Council — such as a (1) multiyear water transfer, (2) conveyance facility, or (3) new diversion that involves transferring water through, exporting water from, or using water in the Sacramento -San Joaquin Delta (Delta)— provide information in their UWMP to demonstrate consistency with the Delta Plan Policy WR P1, Reduce Reliance on the Delta Through Improved Regional Water Self -Reliance (California Code of Regulations [CCR], Title 23, §5003).

Burbank may receive imported water from the Delta via the State Water Project (SWP) through water purchased from MWD. Because Burbank can receive water from the Delta through imported purchases, Burbank has prepared an appendix to address reduced reliance on th e Delta (see Appendix C). This evaluation is based on regional supply diversification, to address the requirements of the Delta Plan Policy WR P1.

1.5.2 Permitting for Ocean Desalination Projects
California’s Water Supply Strategy: Adapting to a Hotter, Drier Future updates state priorities to address water supply shortages due to long-term drought and the accelerating impacts of climate change, including identifying opportunities to access new water sources such as ocean desalination. Burbank's wholesaler, MWD, recognizes that seawater desalination represents a significant opportunity to diversify the region's water resource with a new, locally controlled, reliable potable supply, and supports the use of seawater desalination by its member agencies. Burbank is currently partnered with six other agencies to evaluate onshore infrastructure for Water Farm 1 (WF1), the first subsea reverse osmosis desalination project in the United States. The project is currently in the feasibility study phase, as further described in Section 6.6.

2 PLAN PREPARATION
This section discusses the type of UWMP prepared by Burbank and includes information that will apply throughout the Plan. It also summarizes the coordination and outreach completed during the Plan development.

2.1 Basis for Preparing the UWMP
An urban water supplier is defined in CWC §10617 as a supplier, either publicly or privately owned, providing water for municipal purposes either directly or indirectly to more than 3,000 customers or supplying more than 3,000 AF of water annually.

Burbank is exclusively a retail supplier and operates the Public Water System (PWS) listed in Table 2 -1.

PWSs are systems that provide drinking water for human consumption and are regulated by the SWRCB Division of Drinking Water (DDW). The SWRCB requires that water agencies report water usage and other relevant PWS information via the electronic Annual Reports to the Drinking Water Program. These data are used by the state to determine, among other things, whether an urban retail water supplier h as reached the threshold for submitting a UWMP. In calendar year 2025, Burbank provided water to 26,827 connections and served 17,565 AF of water (Table 2-1). Burbank is therefore subject to the requirements of the UWMP Act.
 CWC §10617
“Urban water supplier” means a supplier, either publicly or privately owned, providing water for municipal purposes either directly or indirectly to more than 3,000 customers or supplying more than 3,000 acre -feet of water annually. An urban water supplier includes a supplier or contractor for water, regardless of the basis of right, which distributes or sells for ultimate resale to customers. This part applies only to water supplied from public water systems subject to Chapter 4 (commencing with Section 11 6275) of Part 12 of Division 104 of the Health and Safety Code.
 CWC §10608.12
(t) “Urban retail water supplier” means a water supplier, either publicly or privately owned, that directly provides potable municipal water to more than 3,000 end users or that supplies more than 3,000 acre- feet of potable water annually at retail for municipal purposes.
(w) “Urban wholesale water supplier” means a water supplier, either publicly or privately owned, that provides more than 3,000 acre-feet of water annually at wholesale for potable municipal purposes.  CWC §10620
(b) Every person that becomes an urban water supplier shall adopt an urban water management plan within one year after it has become an urban water supplier.
 CWC §10621
(a) Each urban water supplier shall update its plan at least once every five years on or before July 1, in years ending in six and one, incorporating updated and new information from the five years preceding each update.  California Health and Safety Code §116275
(h) “Public Water System” means a system for the provision of water for human consumption through pipes or other constructed conveyances that has 15 or more service connections or regularly serves at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.

2.4 Standard Submittal Tables and Alignment with UWMP Act Requirements The Plan has been prepared in general accordance with the format suggested in DWR ’s 2025 UWMP Guidebook. Text from the UWMP Act has been included in text boxes at the beginning of relevant sections of this UWMP. The information presented in the respective UWMP section s, and the associated text, figures, and charts are collectively intended to fulfill the requirements of that sub-section of the UWMP Act. To the exte nt practicable, supporting documentation has also been provided in Appendices A through G. Other sources for the information contained herein are provided in the references section of the document.

Per CWC §10644(a)(2), selected information for the UWMP updates must be presented in standardized tables for electronic submittal to DWR. Text and tables in the main body of the UWMP document have been cross -referenced to the companion DWR tables, which are provided in Appendix B. UWMP preparers are also requested to complete a checklist of specific UWMP requirements to assist the DWR review of the submitted UWMP. The completed checklist is included in Appendix A.

2.5 Coordination and Outreach
Coordination with other water suppliers, cities, counties, and other community organizations in the region is an important part of preparing a UWMP and WSCP. This section identifies the agencies and organizations Burbank sought to coordinate with during the preparation of this Plan.

2.5.1 Wholesale and Retail Coordination

MWD is a water wholesaler in the Southern California region and is comprised of 2 6 member agencies, including Burbank. As described in Section 6, Burbank typically derives 20% of its potable water supply from MWD.
 CWC §10631
(h) An urban water supplier that relies upon a wholesale agency for a source of water shall provide the wholesale agency with water use projections from that agency for that source of water in five- year increments to 20 years or as far as data is available. The wholesale agency shall provide information to the urban water supplier for inclusion in the urban water supplier’s plan that identifies and quantifies, to the extent practicable, the existing and planned sources of water as required by subdivision (b), available from the wholesale agency to the urban water supplier over the same five -year increments, and during various water -year types in accordance with subdivision (f). An urban water supplier may rely upon water supply information provided by the wholesale agency in fulfilling the plan informational requirements of subdivisions (b) and (f).

2.5.2 Coordination with Other Agencies and the Community

In addition to coordinating with MWD, Burbank coordinated with other regional agencies to ensure that data and issues are presented accurately, including: Los Angeles County , Glendale Water & Power (Glendale), and Los Angeles Department of Water and Power ( LADWP). Burbank’s UWMP has also been prepared in close coordination with the Burbank Community Development Department and Burbank Department of Public Works. Accordingly, Burbank’s UWMP is consistent with the Burbank2035 General Plan and subsequent planning documents, specific plans, and timing of individual planned and approved projects.

2.5.3 Notice to Cities and Counties

Burbank provided a 60-Day Notice to the entities and the communities it serves (i.e., the County of Los Angeles) at the start of the UWMP process, more than 60 days prior to the public hearing it held on 16 June 2026, informing them that the Plan was going to be reviewed and updated. As a courtesy, Burbank also provided a 60-Day Notice to LADWP and Glendale to ensure regional alignment in water management. The 60-Day Notice recipients are listed in Table 10-1 in Section 10, and c opies of correspondence with the agencies are provided in Appendix D.

Burbank also notified the public of its intent to adopt its UWMP through a public hearing and notices to members of the community. Additional information on noticing is provided in Section 10 and in Appendix D.

3 SERVICE AREA DESCRIPTION
This section provides a description of the Burbank water system and service area, including climate, population, demographics, and land uses to help in understanding various elements of water supply and demand.

3.1 General Description

There has been a community known as Burbank in Southern California since 1887. The City of Burbank was officially established in 1911 , and the municipal water and electric utility was founded in 1913. In 1914, an additional 9.4 square miles were annexed, establishing today’s total area of 17.1 square miles and the population grew to almost 14,000. Burbank was one of the 13 founding agencies of MWD in 1928 to secure its future water supplies.

World War II brought rapid industrial growth. During the war, 94,000 people were employed at Lockheed Corporation (Lockheed) aircraft facilities within the City, and the population grew to 78,577 by 1950.

Growth continued at a slower rate for the remainder of the 20 th century. The Lockheed facility closed in
1991; however, the rest of the 1990’s brought an expansion of the movie and television industry and a revitalization of the downtown area. The population grew to 100,316 by 2000. Since then, former Lockheed and other industrial sites have been redeveloped for commercial and retail uses. There has been a return to intensive multi -family residential construction that replaces, or sometimes adds on to, older single-family and small multi-family units.

The City is located approximately 12 miles north of downtown Los Angeles, in the eastern end of the San Fernando V alley. The City of Los Angeles lies to the south and west and the City of Glendale to the southeast. A map of Burbank is provided on Figure 3-1, showing both the City boundary and the Burbank service area.

Burbank’s supply portfolio reflects its strategic emphasis on maximizing local resources and reducing reliance on purchased treated water. Burbank produces approximately 77% of its potable water supply from production wells operated by Burbank Water and Power (BWP) through a contract operator , representing an increase from previous years . The groundwater is treated at the Burbank Operable Unit (BOU) before entering Burbank’s distribution system. The BOU is a groundwater remediation program and treatment system that recovers contaminated groundwater from the North Hollywood and Burbank area for safe municipal use in Burbank. The BOU is discussed in more detail in Section 6.2. Burbank purchases the remaining 20% of its potable supply from MWD as treated potable water. Burbank has five connections with MWD that supply potable water and one connection that supplies untreated raw water, which Burbank uses for groundwater recharge. Burbank also produces recycled water (approximately 3,000 acre-feet per year [AFY]) at the Burbank Water Reclamation Plant (BWRP), which is operated by the Burbank Department of Public Works. Burbank has two connections with the neighboring Glendale and one connection with LADWP, which have been used in the past to augment supply from MWD when any of the cities have had a short-term operational difficulty.

Burbank also owns and maintains potable and non-potable distribution pipelines, booster pumps, storage tanks and reservoirs as described in greater detail in Section 3.5.  CWC §10631

3.2 Service Area Climate

Burbank’s service area is characterized by a Mediterranean climate with hot and dry summers and mild winters. Burbank is located in the San Fernando Valley which is relatively inland compared to the nearby coastal areas. This means that summer days are typically hotter and winter nights are typically colder.

Average temperature and rainfall data for the Burbank area were available from the Western Regional Climate Center Burbank Valley Pump Station (# 041194-6) and reference evapotranspiration data were  CWC §10631

available from the nearby DWR California Irrigation Management System (CIMIS) North Hollywood Station (# 223) for 2015 – 2025. Based on that data, most rainfall occurs between December and March, and Burbank receives an ave rage of 15 inches of rainfall annually (see Table 3 -1). Maximum daily air temperature averages 88 degrees Fahrenheit (°F) during the summer months and 70°F in the winter months. The average annual reference evapotranspiration ( Eto) is 5 1 inches, and t his leads to a considerable demand for landscape irrigation in order to make up for the deficit between Eto and rainfall.

3.3 Service Area Population and Demographics

Burbank historical and current service area population are based on estimates from the California Department of Finance (DOF), which are benchmarked with the 2020 U.S. Census Bureau data ( Figure 3-4). In 2020, Burbank’s service area population was 107,171, and it is estimated that Burbank’s service area population was 106,146 in 2025, a decrease of 1.0%. This decrease is likely attributable to the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic which significantly altered socio -economic trends including increased emigration from many urban areas throughout California.

Projected population for 2030 through 2050 was provided by Burbank’s wholesaler, MWD, and based on SCAG’s 2024 Connect SoCal ( RTP/SCS). SCAG is the regional Metropolitan Planning Organization, and it updates the Connect SoCal plan every four years to address the region’s transportation, infrastructure, land use, housing, and environmental needs . Connect SoCal is developed through rigorous technical analysis, extensive stakeholder engagement and collaboration with local, state and federal government.

Burbank’s 2021-2029 Housing Element Update also identified the development of three future specific plans, which are intended to facilitate residential development within the City. The three specific plans are: (1) the Downtown Burbank Transit Oriented Development Specific Plan (DTSP), (2) the Golden State Specific Plan (GSSP), and (3) the Media District Specific Plan (MDSP) (see Section 3.4 for more information on the 2021-2029 Housing Element Update and the three specific plans ). A comparison between SCAG’s 2024 Connect SoCal housing projections and the preferred project alternatives for the three in-process specific plans indicated that the development from the GSSP was accounted for in the SCAG projections, while the MDSP and DTSP were not. Therefore, residential development and subsequent population increase from these two developing specific plans is considered additive to SCAG’s, and consequently MWD’s population projections. MWD provided estimates of the number of persons per household in Burbank’s service area ( Appendix E) and this factor was applied to the number of new housing units contemplated as part of full build-out development of the two developing specific plans to estimate the additional increase in population.

Figure 3-4 shows the baseline projections provided by MWD, and the adjustments made to incorporate the potential population associated with the developments contemplated in the MDSP and DTSP.

Burbank’s total current and projected service area population are shown in Table 3 -2 in five -year increments through 2050 assuming the full development potential contemplated under the DTSP and MDSP is achieved by 2035. T he total population within Burbank’s service area is expected to be 156,624 by 2050, which represents a 1.57% average annual growth rate between 2025 and 2050.

3.4 Land Uses within Service Area

Burbank consists of a mix of urban land uses, including residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and open space, with residential and commercial being the dominating uses. Burbank is largely built-out, meaning there are few vacant sites available for new developments and growth is expected to be due primarily to increases in housing density and land use intensity.

According to the Burbank2035 General Plan prepared in 2013, the greatest amount of growth in the next several decades is expected to be in the commercial area. The City expects to see an intensification of commercial land use in the downtown area and an increased amount of mixed-use development (i.e., residential/commercial/retail) along transportation corridors and transportation nodes. N ew residential development will be predominantly multi-family, as well as a steady production of accessory dwelling units within single family neighborhoods. Both types of development are expected to increase the population density. Redevelopment of areas adjacent to downtown is expected to continue, especially along the South San Fernando Boulevard corridor and the area around the Metrolink station.

The City has a City Counci l-adopted and State-Certified 2021 -2029 Housing Element Update, which assesses the City’s existing housing stock, capacity for housing growth and implementation programs necessary to facilit ate the development of the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation ( RHNA) as established by SCAG (Burbank, 2022) . Burbank’s RHNA is 8,772 net units , and the City identified the capacity for this plus a buffer for a total of 10,011 net new units which could be developed to meet housing needs. The 2021-2029 Housing Element Update includes Program #5, which is to complete three specific plans which are an essential component of the City demonstrating its ability to facilitate the state mandated housing. The three s pecific plans are the DTSP , the GSSP , and the MDSP . In addition to facilitating the development of housing units , these specific plans are also anticipated to facilitate non- residential development across a variety of commercial sectors including hospitality, office, restaurant, retail, entertainment and light industrial land uses.

MWD provided demographic growth projections for Burbank, which are based on SCAG’s 2024 Connect SoCal. These projections inform their water demand projections and incorporate data from past trends, key demographic and economic assumptions, and local, regional, state and national policy. The SCAG forecasting process also incorporates participation of local jurisdictions and stakeholders. The SCAG 2024 Connect SoCal projections are provided at the local scale based on transportation analysis zones (TAZs).

By reviewing the TAZs’ overlap with the three specific plans described above, it was determined that the growth anticipated from the GSSP is included in the SCAG 2024 Connect SoCal projections, but neither the DTSP nor the MDSP were accounted for in the projections . Therefore, for this UWMP, it is assumed that the housing units associated with the DTSP and the MDSP are in addition to SCAG’s, and consequently MWD’s, housing projections. The capacity for the development of new housing units from the DTSP and the MDSP, all of which are anticipated to be new multi -family units, were provided by Burbank’s Community Development Department . This UWMP assum es the full development potential contemplated under the DTSP and MDSP is achieved by 2035.

The current number of housing units, as estimated by the DOF, is 44,733 (DOF, 2025). MWD projects the total number of housing units will increase to 50,443 units by 2050. However, w hen accounting for the  CWC §10631

MWD’s multi-family housing projections were adjusted assuming the full development potential contemplated under the DTSP and MDSP is achieved by 2035, as provided by Burbank’s Community Development Department.

3.5 Water Distribution System
Burbank provides potable water and recycled water to customers within the City. Burbank's potable water supply is comprised of water from MWD and groundwater from production wells operated by the City.

MWD imports its water from Northern California via the SWP and also the Colorado River via the Colorado River Aqueduct (CRA). All groundwater extracted in Burbank is treated to remove Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) at the BOU prior to entering th e distribution system. Recycled water is produced at the Burbank Water Reclamation Plant (BWRP), operated by the Burbank Department of Public Works, and is delivered via an independent distribution system. Section 6 contains more information about potable water supplies and the recycled water system.

Burbank’s potable water system includes approximately 278 miles of pipelines ranging in size from 30 inches to 4 inches in diameter, 35 booster pumps, 21 tanks and reservoirs, eight wells, five MWD connections, and over 26,000 service connections. The water distribution system consists of three major pressure zones and eight smaller hillside zones (see Figure 3-5 ). The three largest pressure zones are denoted Zones 1, 2, and 3. Zone 1 encompasses approximately 90% of the total City land area and represents 88% of the total City demand. The ground surface elevations in Zone 1 range from 480 feet above mean sea level (MSL) at the southerly boundary at Chavez Street and Linden Avenue, to 830 feet MSL on Bel Aire Drive at Orange Grove Avenue. The reservoirs that serve Zone 1 have a hydraulic elevation of 904 feet MSL.

Almost all of the water supplies enter the system in Zone 1. The only exception is that some water from one of the five MWD treated water connections (B-5) can feed Zone 2. Water is pumped from Zone 1 to Zones 2 and 3 at hydraulic elevations 991 and 1,156 feet MSL, respectively. From Zones 2 and 3, water is pumped to the eight hillside zones through successive pumping stations.

The potable system’s tanks and reservoirs range in capacity from 13,500 gallons to 25 million gallons (MG).

The combined storage capacity of all the reservoirs is approximately 55.5 MG. The storage capacity of Zone 1 is approximately 45.5 MG, 90% of the total system storage.

Water demands by individual customers are subject to wide daily and seasonal fluctuations. Burbank's system has been designed to accommodate variability of water demands. The system includes large storage reservoirs to accommodate hourly flow and demand variations throughout the distribution system. The storage capacity is large enough to allow for short interruptions (1 to 3 days at average flow) in the water supply.

4 WATER USE CHARACTERIZATION

This section descri bes and quantifies Burbank’s historical, current, and projected water uses through 2050. For the purposes of this UWMP, the terms “water use” and “water demand” are used interchangeably.

4.1 Non-Potable Versus Potable Water Use
Potable and non-potable water uses are accounted for separately in this section. Potable uses are served by Burbank’s potable water delivery system. Potable water deliveries comply with Title 22 Drinking Water Standards. Non-potable water uses may include recycled and untreated raw water deliveries that do not meet potable drinking water standards. Uses of potable versus non- potable water are clearly distinguished in the tables included in this section of the Plan.  CWC §10635
(a) Every urban water supplier shall include, as part of its urban water management plan, an assessment of the reliability of its water service to its customers during normal, dry, and multiple dry water years. This water supply and demand assessment shall compare the total water supply sources available to the water supplier with the long-term total projected water use over the next 20 years, in five-year increments, for a normal water year, a single dry water year, and a drought lasting five consecutive water years. The water service reliability assessment shall be based upon the information compiled pursuant to Section 10631, including available data from state, regional, or local agency population projections within the service area of the urban water supplier.  CWC §10631
(d)(1) For an urban retail water supplier, quantify, to the extent records are available, past and current water use, over the same five-year increments described in subdivision (a), and projected water use, based upon information developed pursuant to subdivision (a), identifying the uses among water use sectors, including, but not necessarily limited to, all of the following…
(d)(2) The water use projections shall be in the same five-year increments described in subdivision (a). (d)(4)(A) Water use projections, where available, shall display and account for the water savings estimated to result from adopted codes, standards, ordinances, or transportation and land use plans identified by the urban water supplier, as applicable to the service area.
(d)(4)(B) To the extent that an urban water supplier reports the information described in subparagraph (A), an urban water supplier shall do both of the following: (i) Provide citations of the various codes, standards, ordinances, or transportation and land use plans utilized in making the projections. (ii) Indicate the extent that the water use projections consider savings from codes, standards, ordinances, or transportation and land use plans. Water use projections that do not account for these water savings shall be noted of that fact.

4.2 Water Use Sectors

Demand within Burbank’s water service area is measured using water meters that are installed at each customer account. Records of current and historical water use at each account are maintained by Burbank. Demand within Burbank’s service area is tracked and reported for the following sectors:
• Single Family Residential: Attached or detached dwelling units that are individually metered; this may include water use from associated accessory dwelling units. • Multi-Family Residential: Two or more dwelling units served by a common water meter. Water use is predominately for indoor water uses.
• Commercial: Commercial accounts generally represent businesses that provide or distribute products or services.
• Institutional and Governmental : Includes meters serving City sites and institutional accounts which typically consist of public service entities such as schools, colleges and universities, hospitals, government facilities, courts, churches, and nonprofit research organizations. • Industrial: Includes recycled water meters for geothermal and other energy production. • Landscape: Recycled water meters used for outdoor irrigation at sites such as highway landscaping, city parks, schools and golf courses.
• Fire Service: Water meters used for fire suppression or system maintenance. • Other: Temporary meters and miscellaneous customers not listed elsewhere. • Sales to Other Agencies: Any sales, exchanges or transfers of water to another agency The following water use sectors noted in CWC §10631(d)(1) do not apply to Burbank:

• Saline water intrusion barriers, groundwater recharge 6, or conjunctive use, or any combination thereof; and
• Agricultural.

Burbank’s total water demand is the sum of potable water demand s and recycled water demands within its service area . Burbank’s total water demand includes water consumed by metered accounts in the service area (metered water use), authorized but unbilled uses, and water losses within the system. These losses are further divided into apparent and real losses. The latter accounts for physical losses within the distribution system caused by seepage, leaks, and spills, while the former accounts for accounting losses due to meter inaccuracies, data handling errors, and unauthorized consumption.

4.3 Past and Current Water Demand

Past water uses inform an understanding of water use trends which are crucial for developing water use projections. Figure 4-1 shows the 2021 through 2025 water use by sector, and Table 4-1 shows the 2025 actual water use by sector. The 2025 water loss was estimated as 4. 6% of water supplied based on the average water loss for 2021 through 2024 as reported in the American Water Works Association (AWWA) Free Water Audit Software (referred to as “water loss audit reports”).

Total water use decreased from 19, 042 AF in 2021 to 16, 001 AF in 2023, a 1 6% decrease driven by a population decline, drought conditions across the State, and implementation of Burbank’s WSCP Level 3 water use restrictions in June 2022 (see Section 8). As shown in Table 4-1, total water use was 17,167 AF in 2025. Figure 4-2 presents the water use distribution by sector in 2025. Together, single family residential water use and multi-family residential water use accounted for 6 0% of total demand in 2025.

Commercial and recycled water use were the next largest sectors, with each accounting for 17% of total demand.

6 While Burbank spreads untreated water from MWD for groundwater recharge, the water is typically recovered within the same year to meet potable demands and therefore is not accounted for separately as a demand.  CWC §10631

4.4 Projected Water Demand

MWD provided its member agencies, including Burbank, with supply and demand projections developed for its 2025 UWMP (Appendix E). Burbank’s potable water demands for 2025, 2030, 2035, 2040 and 2045 are based on MWD’s total retail demand projections , which integrate demographic, housing and population projections discussed in Section 3.3. Per MWD’s 2025 UWMP, baseline water use was adjusted to account for anticipated passive water savings, which are primarily driven by plumbing code updates, appliance efficiency standards, and gradual turnover of the existing appliances and plumbing fixtures. The anticipated passive water savings were subtracted from the baseline projected water use, as described in greater detail in the following sections.

As discussed in Section 3.4, MWD’s demand projections are based on SCAG’s 2024 Connect SoCal plan and do not include additional development contemplated in the DTSP and MDSP . Accordingly, the projected demands associated with these specific plans were estimated separately and added to MWD’s baseline demand projections.
 CWC §10631
(d)(1) For an urban retail water supplier, quantify, to the extent records are available, … projected water use, based upon information developed pursuant to subdivision (a), identifying the uses among water use sectors… (d)(2) The water use projections shall be in the same five-year increments described in subdivision (a).  CWC §10631.1
(a) The water use projections required by Section 10631 shall include projected water use for single -family and multifamily residential housing needed for lower income households, as defined in Section 50079.5 of the Health and Safety Code, as identified in the housing element of any city, county, or city and county in the service area of the supplier.
(b) It is the intent of the Legislature that the identification of projected water use for single-family and multifamily residential housing for lower income households will assist a supplier in complying with the requirements under Section 65589.7 of the Government Code to grant a priority for the provision of service to housing units affordable to lower income households.
 CWC §10633
The plan shall provide, to the extent available, information on recycled water...and shall include all of the following:...
(e) The projected use of recycled water within the supplier’s service area at the end of 5, 10, 15, and 20 years, and a description of the actual use of recycled water in comparison to uses previously projected pursuant to this subdivision...
 CWC §10635
(a) Every urban water supplier shall include, as part of its urban water management plan, an assessment of the reliability of its water service to its customers during normal, dry, and multiple dry water years. This water supply and demand assessment shall compare the total water supply sources available to the water supplier with the long-term total projected water use over the next 20 years, in five -year increments, for a normal water year, a single dry water year, and a drought lasting five consecutive water years. The water service reliability assessment shall be based upon the information compiled pursuant to Section 10631, including available data from state, regional, or local agency population projections within the service area of the urban water supplier.

4.4.1 Passive Water Savings

Passive savings result primarily from: (1) the natural replacement of existing plumbing fixtures with water- efficient models required under current plumbing code standards and retrofit requirements ( Ordinance No. 3786), and (2) the installation of water-efficient fixtures and equipment in new buildings and retrofits as required under CALGreen Building Code Standards as adopted in the Burbank Municipal Code, Title 9, Chapter 1, Article 11. The water demand projections presented herein take into account pass ive savings, as affirmed in Table 4-3.

Table 4-3 Inclusion in Water Use Projections (DWR Table 4-3) Are Future Water Savings Included in Projections? Yes
If "Yes" to above: State the section or page number, in the cell to the right, where citations of the codes, ordinances, or otherwise are utilized in demand projections are found.

Section 4.4.1
Are Lower Income Residential Demands Included in Projections? Yes If the method for accounting Lower Income Residential Demands has been included, provide page number where this accounting can be found.

Section 4.4.3
NOTES: All of Burbank’s residential customers, regardless of income level, are metered and thus the demands of residential customers with lower incomes are part of the single - and multi-family water uses shown in Table 4-1 and Table 4-5.

Burbank’s passive savings were estimated by MWD and factored into their water demand projections.

MWD’s conservation model incorporates efficiency requirement s for indoor water fixtures from the California Plumbing Code and the Federal Energy Policy Act of 1992. The model assumes that new developments will be in compliance with all efficiency codes as soon as they come online. The model also assumes a natural replacement rate for fixtures in existing buildings to account for the replacement of old fixtures with new efficient fixtures over time. Passive Water Savings are measured relative to a 1990 baseline year and continue to increase through the planning period. This passive savings adjustment applies to all demand categories except recycled water demand . Burbank’s projected passive savings, as provided by MWD, are included in Appendix E, and more information about which efficiency standards were used and how the passive savings were calculated can be found in MWD’s 2025 UWMP.

Burbank’s City Council enacted the Sustainable Water Use Ordinance (SWUO) in 2008 which prohibits the wasteful use of potable water. The SWUO includes permanent restrictions to reduce water waste, as well as a tiered set of increasing restrictions that can be used to further reduce water in response to water  CWC §10631(d)(4)
(A) Water use projections, where available, shall display and account for the water savings estimated to result from adopted codes, standards, ordinances, or transportation and land use plans identified by the urban water supplier, as applicable to the service area.
(B) To the extent that an urban water supplier reports the information described in subparagraph (A), an urban water supplier shall do both of the following:
(i) Provide citations of the various codes, standards, ordinances, or transportation and land use plans utilized in making the projections.
(ii) Indicate the extent that the water use projections consider savings from codes, standards, ordinances, or transportation and land use plans. Water use projections that do not account for these water savings shall be noted of that fact.

shortages.7 The enactment of the SWUO in response to water shortage is described in Section 8. The impact of the SWUO on reducing water waste is not explicitly included in the passive water savings as calculated by MWD, but it is an important factor nonetheless in promoting water conservation throughout the City.

4.4.2 Projected Water Demand by Sector
The projected demands from MWD were disaggregated by water use sector using 2025 water sales by customer class, and then allocated based on projected housing unit and employment growth. Distribution system water loss was assumed to remain consistent with the 2021 – 2024 average of 4.6% of total water demand.

MWD’s baseline water demand projections were adjusted a ssuming the full development potential contemplated under the DTSP and MDSP is achieved by 2035. The potential net new additive water demands from the DTSP and MDSP were provided by Burbank’s Community Development Department by water sector . These specific plan demand projections were assumed to represent customer end-use demand and do not include distribution system water loss; therefore, additional distribution system water losses were applied at 4.6% of the total water demand of the specific plans consistent with 2021 – 2024 average water loss levels.

Table 4-4 shows the projected water demand by use type in five-year increments between 2030 and 2050.

Demand is projected to increase more rapidly in the earlier planning period, growing 21% between 2030 and 2035, and then stabilizing and slightly decreasing by about -1% between 2045 to 2050. The t otal potable water demand is expected to reach approximately 27,501 AF in 2050, representing an approximately 93% increase from 2025 potable demand. Including both potable and non -potable demands, the total projected demand is anticipated to reach 31,094 AF by 2050. While historical recycled water use has averaged approximately 2,940 AFY for the past five years, Burbank anticipates that future recycled water use will increase to 3,593 AF by 2030 and remain constant through 2050 . For more information on specific recycled water uses, see Section 6.5.4.

7 Burbank’s Board may consider updates to the SWUO in the near future to clarify existing conservation measures and add in new requirements, such as the non-functional turf ban under AB 1572 and MCCWL requirements.

4.4.3 Water Use by Lower Income Households

Burbank is characterized as a middle-class community with a median household income of $97,082 (U.S.

Census Bureau , 2025 ). According to the SB 535 Disadvantaged Communities – 2022 Update, disadvantaged communities are primarily along the I-5 corridor and account for approximately 34% of the  CWC §10631.1
(a) The water use projections required by Section 10631 shall include projected water use for single- family and multifamily residential housing needed for lower income households, as defined in Section 50079.5 of the Health and Safety Code, as identified in the housing element of any city, county, or city and county in the service area of the supplier.
(b) It is the intent of the Legislature that the identification of projected water use for single-family and multifamily residential housing for lower income households will assist a supplier in complying with the requirements under Section 65589.7 of the Government Code to grant a priority for the provision of service to housing units affordable to lower income households.
 California Health and Safety Code §50079.5
(a) “Lower income households” means persons and families whose income does not exceed the qualifying limits for lower income families… In the event the federal standards are discontinued, the department shall, by regulation, establish income limits for lower income households for all geographic areas of the state at 80 percent of area median income, adjusted for family size and revised annually.

City’s population. 8 Therefore, it is assumed that 34% of the residential water demand in 2025, approximately 3,550 AF, served households in disadvantaged communities. All residential customers in Burbank, regardless of income level, are metered; therefore , water demands for lower-income households are included in the single- and multi-family water use estimates shown in Table 4-1 and Table 4-5. Inclusion of lower-income households in water use projections is affirmed in Table 4-3.

4.5 Distribution System Water Loss

Water loss is the sum of apparent and real losses. Apparent loss is associated with metering inaccuracies, billing and administrative errors, authorized unmetered uses (e.g., system flushing and firefighting), and unauthorized uses. Real loss is associated with physical water loss through line breaks, leaks and seeps, and overflows of storage tanks.

4.5.1 Previous Five Years Distribution System Losses
Since 2016, urban retail water suppliers have been required under CWC §10608.34 and CCR Title 23, §638.1 et seq to quantify distribution system water losses using the AWWA water loss audit reports. Table 4-5 summarizes the water loss audit reports submitted to DWR since 2020. The water loss audit reports are available through DWR’s Water Use Efficiency (WUE) Data Portal.

4.6 Climate Change Considerations
Climate change is expected to alter water demand patterns across California. Water demands within Burbank show significant seasonality, with maximum month demands (particularly for landscape irrigation and industrial uses) vulnerable to increases from more frequent, longer, and more extreme heat waves, increases in temperature, and changes in precipitation, winds, and humidity.

MWD modeled impacts of climate change on regional demands using climate adjustment factors. These factors were estimated using observed impacts of weather variables, including precipitation and temperature, on historical consumptive demands. MWD updated these factors to include the most recent weather and climate outcomes and recent changes in water use and irrigation demands. By incorporating these climate adjustment factors, MWD’s demand projections are calibrated to more recent water use behaviors and better reflect current climate change impacts.

Pursuant to the CWC requirements and the 2025 UWMP Guidebook, this Plan incorporates climate change considerations from the MWD demand modeling in the water demand projections provided in this section.

4.7 Characteristic Five-Year Water Use

In accordance with CWC §10635(b)(3), UWMPs must provide a five -year Drought Risk Assessment (see Section 7.5). As a first step, DWR suggests that water suppliers estimate their unconstrained water demand for the next five years (2026-2030). Unconstrained water demand is water use in the absence of drought water use restrictions. These numbers can then be adjusted to estimate the five -years’ cumulative drought effects. Table 4-7 shows unconstrained demands for 2026 -2030 provided by MWD (Appendix E) and adjusted a ssuming the full development potential contemplated under the DTSP and  CWC §10630
It is the intention of the Legislature, in enacting this part, to permit levels of water management planning commensurate with the numbers of customers served and the volume of water supplied, while accounting for impacts from climate change.

SB X7-7, mandated a 20% reduction in urban per -capita water use across California by 2020. To achieve this goal, SB X7-7 required each retail s upplier to establish an urban water -use target (2020 Target) , contributing to the State’s collective efforts. Because the CWC does not set an end date for reporting progress in meeting the 2020 Target, this section of the UWMP demonstrates Burbank’s compliance with SB X7-7 in 2020.

suppliers and introduced Performance Measures for commercial, industrial, and institutional ( CII) water users.

The UWUO is a water -budget-based framework tailored to each supplier. It consists of the following components:

1. Residential indoor water use standard,

2. Residential outdoor water budget,

3. CII landscape outdoor water use standard (for landscapes with dedicated irrigation meters),

4. Water loss standard,

5. Variance, and

6. Potable reuse bonus.

Beginning in 2027, suppliers must annually assess whether the sum of their regulated water uses (i.e., residential indoor and outdoor, dedicated irrigation meter use, and water loss) is at or below their UWUO.

The state standards for residential indoor and outdoor water use and for CII outdoor use will become increasingly stringent over time, potentially requiring additional conservation efforts to achieve compliance.

Urban retail water suppliers must report annually through DWR’s WUE Data Portal on their water use relative to their UWUOs.
9 Because compliance with the UWUO requirements falls under the authority of the SWRCB, UWUO compliance projections are not required as part of a UWMP per the 2025 UWMP Guidebook. Therefore, UWUO projections are not included herein.

6 NORMAL YEAR WATER SUPPLY CHARACTERIZATION

This section of the UWMP provides a description of Burbank’s current and potential water supplies, as well as an assessment of the energy intensity used to operate Burbank ’s distribution systems. Burbank obtains its water supply from a combination of imported water from MWD, local groundwater from the San Fernando Basin (SFB), and recycled water.

6.1 Purchased or Imported Water

Burbank is one of 26 member agencies to MWD, meaning Burbank may purchase imported water supply, benefits from regional infrastructure access, and can participate in long -term water planning programs.

Burbank purchases treated and untreated raw water from MWD, a wholesale water provider that serves imported water to 26 member agencies across 5,200 square miles of Southern California. Treated water is delivered to the City’s potable water distribution system and directly sent to meet customer demands , and raw water is applied to spreading grounds for groundwater recharge. The total amount of water Burbank purchases from MWD varies significantly from year to year, depending on how much raw water it purchases for groundwater recharge. Between 2021 and 2025, purchased water from MWD accounted for 17% to 49% of Burbank’s total water supply.

MWD delivers imported water from the Delta via the SWP and from the Colorado River via the CRA. MWD operates five treatment plants that supply treated water to most of Southern California, including Burbank. Burbank has five treated potable water connections to the MWD system, with a maximum rated capacity of 115 cubic feet per second (cfs) (see Table 6-1 below). In 2010, the City completed a n MWD connection (B -6) to deliver untreated imported water for groundwater replenishment to the existing  CWC §10631
(b) Identify and quantify, to the extent practicable, the existing and planned sources of water available to the supplier over the same five-year increments described in subdivision (a) [in five-year increments to 20 years or as far as data is available], providing supporting and related information, including all of the following:
(1) A detailed discussion of anticipated supply availability under a normal water year, single dry year, and droughts lasting at least five years, as well as more frequent and severe periods of drought, as described in the drought risk assessment. For each source of water supply, consider any information pertinent to the reliability analysis conducted pursuant to Section 10635, including changes in supply due to climate change. (2) When multiple sources of water supply are identified, a description of the management of each supply in correlation with the other identified supplies.
(3) For any planned sources of water supply, a description of the measures that are being undertaken to acquire and develop those water supplies.

An urban water supplier that relies upon a wholesale agency for a source of water shall provide the wholesale agency with water use projections from that agency for that source of water in five-year increments to 20 years or as far as data is available. The wholesale agency shall provide information to the urban water supplier for inclusion in the urban water supplier’s plan that identifies and quantifies, to the extent practicable, the existing and planned sources of water as required by subdivision (b), available from the wholesale agency to the urban water supplier over the same five- year increments, and during various water -year types in accordance with subdivision (f). An urban water supplier may rely upon water supply information provided by the wholes ale agency in fulfilling the plan informational requirements of subdivisions (b) and (f).

Burbank’s demand for treated MWD water has decreased since groundwater treatment facilities came on-line, as described in Section 6.2. Burbank used approximately 23,000 AF of treated MWD water in 1990. Since then, treated imported water use has decreased, averaging approximately 3,100 AF between 2021 and 2025 (Table 6-2).

In addition to purchasing treated water, t he City also purchased and spread a total of approximately 10,800 AF of raw water between 20 21 and 202 5 ( Table 6-2). Since 2023, raw water sp reading has decreased at the Pacoima and Lopez spreading grounds due to infrastructure upgrades and quagga mussel contamination in the untreated MWD water. In 2025, Burbank completed Raw Water Discharge Plans that address the quagga mussel contamination. Burbank expects to resume spreading raw water by 2026 .

Additionally, Burbank accepts additional cyclic storage deliveries from MWD which greatly increase the available untreated water for spreading in wet years . This reduces the raw water demand in normal and dry years for groundwater replenishment purchases.

6.1.1 Sacramento–San Joaquin Delta Watershed
MWD began receiving water from the Delta via the SWP in the early 1970s. The SWP is owned by the State of California and operated by DWR. It is the largest state-operated water and power system in the nation and consists of a vast network of waterways that move water from Northern California through the Delta to parts of the San Francisco Bay Area, Central Valley, and Southern California.

The SWP captures snowmelt and runoff from the northeastern Sierra Nevada Mountains that has flowed to the Delta via rivers and reservoirs. From the Delta, water is pumped into the SWP to be delivered to SWP Contractors that receive allocations of SWP each year.

MWD is the largest of the 29 state water contractors with a long-term contract for water supply from the SWP with DWR. MWD’s contract allocation is presently 1,911,500 AFY. The SWP water supply contracts set forth the base annual water supply entitlement that a state water contractor may expect to be provided under the contract, as detailed in “Table A” of the contracts. However, actual delivery varies by year, depending on hydrologic conditions, water quality and environmental conditions, state water contractor delivery requests, current reservoir storage, and other operational factors. Additional information on SWP supply reliability is provided in Section 7.

6.1.2 Colorado River
The Colorado River originates in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and flows southwest to the Arizona- California border, then continues south into Mexico to the Colorado River Delta and ultimately to the Gulf of California. MWD diverts Colorado River water f rom Lake Havasu into the CRA, which has a capacity of

1.25 million AFY and is operated by MWD. The CRA then conveys water west to its terminus at Lake Mathews in Riverside County, within MWD’s service area.

In addition, MWD can access up to 662,000 AFY above California’s 4.4 million AFY if unused water from high er-priority users or conserved water through transfer programs becomes available, as well as 180,000 AFY when surplus flows are available. Additional information on the Colorado River’s future supply reliability, including ongoing drought conditions and a new long-term operating plan, is provided in Section 7.

6.2 Groundwater

Burbank pumps groundwater from the aquifer in the SFB (DWR Basin No. 4 -011.04) of the Coastal Plain of Los Angeles Groundwater Basin. The SFB is adjudicated and is managed and monitored by the Upper Los Angeles River Area ( ULARA) Watermaster. Per CWC §10720.8, adjudicated basins are exempt from the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) requirements.10 The SFB spans 112,000 acres and comprises over 90% of the total San Fernando Valley fill (Figure 6-2).

The San Rafael Hills, Verdugo Mountains, and San Gabriel Mountains bound the SFB on the east and northeast. The northern border of the SFB is defined by the San Gabriel Mountains and the eroded south

10 Under SGMA, the SFB has been classified as a very low-priority basin as a “Basin with Adjudication & Non- Adjudicated GW Use <9,500 AF.” Therefore, the SFB is not required to form a groundwater sustainability agency (GSA) and adopt a groundwater sustainability plan (GSP) or submit an alternative to a GSP. The Upper Los Angeles River Area (ULARA) Watermaster continues to maintain liaison with DWR SGMA managers, and submits information to the State’s SGMA website to help verify that ULARA maintains its compliance with SGMA.  CWC §10631
(b)(4) If groundwater is identified as an existing or planned source of water available to the supplier, all of the following information:
(A) The current version of any groundwater sustainability plan or alternative adopted pursuant to Part 2.74 (commencing with Section 10720), any groundwater management plan adopted by the urban water supplier, including plans adopted pursuant to Part 2.75 (commencing with Section 10750), or any other specific authorization for groundwater management for basins underlying the urban water supplier’s service area. (B) A description of any groundwater basin or basins from which the urban water supplier pumps groundwater.

For basins that a court or the board has adjudicated the rights to pump groundwater, a copy of the order or decree adopted by the court or the board and a description of the amount of groundwater the urban water supplier has the legal right to pump under the order or decree. For a basin that has not been adjudicated, information as to whether the department has identified the basin as a high- or medium-priority basin in the most current official departmental bulletin that characterizes the condition of the groundwater basin, and a detailed description of the efforts being undertaken by the urban water supplier to coordinate with groundwater sustainabilit y agencies or groundwater management agencies listed in subdivision (c) of Section 10723 to maintain or achieve sustainable groundwater conditions in accordance with a groundwater sustainability plan or alternative adopted pursuant to Part 2.74 (commencing with Section 10720).

limb of the Little Tujunga Syncline which separates it from the Sylmar Basin. The SFB is bounded on the northwest and west by the Santa Susana Mountains and Simi Hills and on the south by the Santa Monica Mountains.

Historically, Burbank primarily relied on its groundwater resources , with imported water from MWD serving as a supplemental supply. During this time, well and pumping capacity were adequate to serve most of the City’s needs with local groundwater. As the City grew, reliance on MWD supplies increased, although groundwater remained a major source. In 2025, groundwater supplies constitute d approximately 64% of Burbank’s total water supply portfolio.

Figure 6-2 SFB Boundaries

6.2.1 SFB Groundwater Management
The ownership or rights to naturally occurring water in the SFB, also known as the ULARA, was decided in Superior Court Case No. 650079, City of Los Angeles vs. the City of San Fernando, et al. and are adjudicated in the Final Judgment (Judgment) entered on 26 January 1979. 11 The Judgment upheld the Pueblo Water
Rights of the City of Los Angeles to all groundwater in the SFB derived from precipitation (infiltration of direct rain fall plus surface water runoff) within ULARA. The Judgment also included provisions for the establishment of rights to groundwater through “groundwater credits” which can be accounted for as Import Return Credit (IRC), storage of imported water, stored water credits, and Physical Solution Water for certain parties. The Judgment provided for a Court-appointed Watermaster to enforce the Judgment, and created an Administrative Committee to advise with, request or consent to, and review actions of the Watermaster.

Burbank is entitled to an IRC of 20% of all water delivered in Burbank, including recycled water. This provision was incorporated into the Judgment since a portion of the water delivered in Burbank, which originates from outside ULARA, percolates into the aquifer, becoming part of the groundwater supply.

The IRC is calculated on an annual basis by the ULARA Watermaster. The ULARA Watermaster also prepares an annual report which describes pumping activities for the SFB.12 Burbank is also entitled to import water and spread or percolate this water into the aquifer thus creating additional groundwater and the right to pump that additional groundwater. Burbank is entitled to accumulate or store supply as groundwater credits if they are unused in the year they are earned or created.

The provision of a right to Physical Solution Water recognized the investment in wells, pumping equipment, and transmission mains that were made by Burbank and others prior to the Judgment when the parties in ULARA, other than the City of Los Angeles, were believed to have rights to pump water originating from local precipitation. Physical Solution Water stipulates a right to a specified volume of groundwater “credits” that may be purchased from the City of Los Angeles at the sole discretion of the purchasing party on an annual basis. The cost of this water is set by a formula in the Judgment and is tied to the average cost of water supply to the City of Los Angeles in the preceding year. Burbank is entitled to purchase 4,200 AF of Physical Solution Water annually.

6.2.2 Burbank Operable Unit and Valley Pumping Plant
In the 1980s, groundwater from the City’s production wells were found to have varying degrees of VOC contamination. At this time similar contamination was being found in many parts of the country.

Burbank’s contamination resulted in a complete loss of the groundwater s upply until treatment plants could be built. In 1997 California State regulators classified highly contaminated groundwater including the aquifer underlying Burbank as “Extremely Impaired Sources”.

The Lake Street Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) Treatment Plant , shown in Figure 6-3, was constructed in 1992 to remove VOCs from City wells. However, the Lake Street GAC Treatment Plant was unable to consistently meet the hexavalent chromium limit set by City Council policy. As a result, the Lake Street GAC Treatment Plant has remained shut down since 2001.

The Burbank Operable Unit (BOU) treatment plant, shown in Figure 6-3 , is an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-led project to clean up groundwater impacted by historical industrial releases, primarily by Lockheed-Martin. The BOU project consisted of drilling eight extraction wells and constructing a state-of- the-art treatment plant using Best Available Technology (Air Stripping Towers and Granular Activated Carbon Filters) to remove and stabilize the VOC plumes within the aquifer. Completion of this project , which began operation in 1996, restored a major component to the City's water supply. The eight wells and the VOC removal treatment plant were operated by Lockheed-Martin until 2001, when the City took over operation.

The City’s drinking water permit mandates blending of the BOU water with imported MWD water to meet acceptable nitrate levels. The Valley Pumping Plant, shown in Figure 6-3 , was designed to allow blending of BOU water with MWD water to reduce nitrate levels. If the MWD supply were interrupted, production of groundwater from the Valley Pumping Plant/BOU treatment plant would also need to be stopped to avoid exceeding the nitrate Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL), further described in Section 7.1.2.

Assuming an 85% operational availability, the annual production could potentially be up to 12,300 AFY, which is 86% of the City's current potable water demand. However, regular maintenance and regulated blending requirements to lower nitrate and chromium concentrations in conjunction with lower system demand to accept this blended water has reduced the production levels to an average of approximately 11,600 AFY over the last five years.

6.4 Stormwater
Burbank recognizes the multiple benefits of stormwater capture and has implement ed numerous stormwater capture projects, including the EcoCampus project. While these projects are expected to recharge and improve the health of the SFB, the volume of water supply captured is relatively small and therefore not accounted for as part of supply projections in this UWMP.

6.5 Wastewater and Recycled Water

Recycling water involves treating wastewater to an acceptable level such that it can be reused for non- potable applications, such as landscape irrigation. A key benefit of water recycling is its potential to offset the use of potable supplies and to maintain local supply. The regulatory requirements for recycled water are defined in the CCR, Title 22, Division 4, Chapter 3, Article 3 (Title 22) and differ for different uses (e.g., irrigation for food crops, landscape, and recreation). Because recycled water is treated wastewater, its availability is closely linked to the location and treatment capability of the wastewater treatment plant that receives and treats wastewater from a water supplier’s service area. The following sections describe wastewater collection and treatment for Burbank’s service area, the use of recycled water, as well as existing and future uses of recycled water.
 CWC §10633
The plan shall provide, to the extent available, information on recycled water and its potential for use as a water source in the service area of the urban water supplier. The preparation of the plan shall be coordinated with local water, wastewater, groundwater, and planning agencies that operate within the supplier’s service area, and shall include all of the following:
(a) A description of the wastewater collection and treatment systems in the supplier’s service area, including a quantification of the amount of wastewater collected and treated and the methods of wastewater disposal. (b) A description of the quantity of treated wastewater that meets recycled water standards, is being discharged, and is otherwise available for use in a recycled water project. (c) A description of the recycled water currently being used in the supplier’s service area, including, but not limited to, the type, place, and quantity of use.

6.5.1 Wastewater Collection, Treatment, and Disposal

Wastewater generated within Burbank is collected and conveyed by approximately 230 miles of pipelines ranging in diameter from 6” to 30”, two pump stations, and 19 diversion manholes. The City of Los Angeles 48” North Outfall Sewer (NOS) line also runs from west to east through the southern portion of Burbank, and collects a small portion of the City’s wastewater.

The majority of Burbank ’s wastewater flows to the BWRP which currently treats 8.5 million gallons per day (MGD) and has a design capacity of 12.5 MGD. The BWRP treatment system consists of the following:
• Flow equalization
• Coarse solids grinding
• Primary sedimentation
• Activated sludge biological treatment
with nitrification and denitrification
• Secondary sedimentation with
coagulation
• Single media deep bed gravity sand
filtration
• Chloramination
• Dechlorination with sodium bisulfite
(for discharge to surface water)

BWRP produces a disinfected tertiary effluent which meets discharge limitations contained in its National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit issued by the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board. BWRP’s effluent also meets the most stringent criteria for recycled water defined in the CCR, Title 22, Division 4, Chapter 3 requirement as Disinfected Tertiary Recycled Water in that it is approved for all uses, including full body contact, with the exception of human consumption. The tertiary treated water is either used for recycled water both in and around Burbank’s service area, or discharged to the Burbank Western Channel adjacent to BWRP.

A small portion of Burbank’s wastewater flows are transported via trunk sewers to Los Angeles Department of Sanitation and Environment (LASAN)’s Hyperion Water Reclamation Plant (HWRP) in the City of Los Angeles. The HWRP provides primary and secondary treatment , and recycles approximately a quarter of the treated wastewater for in -plant, irrigation, industrial, and other non-potable uses outside of Burbank’s service area. The remaining secondary treated effluent is ultimately discharged to the Pacific Ocean through the Hyperion deepwater outfall system.

Estimates of Burbank’s wastewater flows are shown in Table 6-4 totaling 9,335 AF in 2025, with 7,614 AF influent to the BWRP and 1,721 AF influent to the HWRP. These estimates are based on metered wastewater data from both Burbank ’s collection system and the Los Angeles NOS line. For wastewater collected along the Los Angeles NOS line to HWRP, LASAN measures flow entering the Burbank service area, and Burbank measures the flow leaving its service area. Therefore , wastewater generated within the Burbank service area is calculated as outflow minus inflow.

As shown in Table 6-5, approximately 38% of the wastewater received at the BWRP is recycled.  CWC §10633

6.5.2 Recycled Water Coordination

The preparation of this UWMP was coordinated with t he Burbank Department of Public Works, which collects and treats the City’s wastewater to a tertiary standard that is suitable for r ecycled water use.

Burbank also coordinated with Glendale and LADWP, as its non -potable distribution system is interconnected with theirs, allowing for exchange and transfer of recycled water. Coordination efforts are further described in Section 2.5.

6.5.3 Recycled Water System Description

Once recycled water leaves the BWRP it can either be pumped into the recycled water distribution system in the City, flow by gravity to the Burbank EcoCampus where Burbank houses its water, electric, and administrative operations, or be discharged to the Burbank Western Channel. Recycled water is used in one of three general categories within the City: power production, landscape irrigation, and evaporative cooling. Burbank’s recycled water is approved for all uses , including full body contact, except for human consumption.

Landscape Irrigation (Including Golf Courses)
CalTrans began using recycled water in 1988 for landscape irrigation along the Golden State (I-5) Freeway.

The City installed a pipeline under the I -5 in 1992 to distribute recycled water to the east side of the freeway to new customers in the area of the Media City Center, a regional shopping center.

A significant expansion of the recycled water system to quadruple recycled water use began in 1994. This expansion was completed in 1997, and recycled water was used at the Burbank landfill, the DeBell Golf Course, John Muir Middle School, and McCambridge Park. The AMC theater complex and Burbank High School were eventually also connected to these pipelines. The project included upgrading BWRP’s existing booster station plus two new booster stations, storage tanks, and 17,000 feet of pipeline.

Expansion of the distribution system continued with the joint support of the Burbank Redevelopment Agency, Burbank, and infrastructure improvements at major redevelopment sites. These expansions extended the recycled water system to the Chandler Bikeway, the Empire Center, the Burbank (Bob Hope) Airport, and Robert Gross Park.

Burbank prepared a Recycled Water Master Plan in 2007, which was updated in 2010, to outline a phased expansion of the recycled water system and increase the use of recycled water. The recycled water system expansion was completed in 2012 and included construction of six major pipeline projects totaling over 20 miles in length and an upgrade of pump station PS -1. All major landscaped areas that could be economically served, including city parks and schools, are now irrigated with recycled water.

Recycled water demand for golf course irrigation has increased slightly over the past few years, exceeding the 2020 UWMP projections by 50 AF in 2025 ( Table 6-7). In contrast, r ecycled water demand for  CWC §10633

landscape irrigation (excluding golf course irrigation) in 2025 was 17% lower than projected in the 2020 UWMP (Table 6-7). This is because annual irrigation demand naturally varies due to short-term influences, such as infrastructure changes, climate fluctuations, drought response measures, landscape conversions, and improved irrigation efficiency. Burbank projects that recycled water sales for landscape irrigation (excluding golf course irrigation) will be approximately 1,200 AF by 2030, consistent with 2020 use (Table 6-6).

Power Production
Recycled water was first used at Burbank’s power production facilities for cooling in 1967. Originally, all excess recycled water from BWRP that was not pumped into the recycled water system flowed by gravity to the Burbank campus, with cooling tower blowdown water and excess recycled water discharged to the Burbank Western Channel.

The Magnolia Power Project (MPP), completed in 2005, uses a sufficient volume of recycled water to eliminate all recycled water discharges to the Burbank Western Channel from the Burbank campus. MPP uses recycled water exclusively for cooling and all other power plant uses, including high purity boiler feed. MPP recycles all process and cooling water through its zero liquid discharge unit, which treats cooling tower blowdown and other recovered flows for reuse as cooling tower makeup. The byproduct of the zero liquid discharge process is a salt cake that is dried and trucked to a landfill for disposal.

Three other power plants are located at the Burbank campus: Lake 1, Olive 1, and Olive 2. Lake 1 is a simple cycle natural gas fired turbine which is used intermittently to meet peak demands. This plant has a small cooling tower and uses minimal amounts of recycled water for gas compressor and lubrication oil cooling. Demineralized recycled water is also used for air emissions control equipment. The two Olive power plants are on long-term standby. Cooling and process water used in these plants is recycled w ater with the blowdown from their cooling towers being discharged to the sanitary sewer.

When the MPP first came online, its average annual recycled water usage was 1,350 AF. Since 2010, the annual usage has decreased. In 2025, the MPP used 986 AF of recycled water, approximately 20% lower than projected in the 20 20 UWMP ( Table 6-7). These decreases are due in part to infrastructure maintenance and upgrade project s at the M PP, which reduced its energy production and therefore demand for recycled water. Burbank estimates that recycled water sales for power production will increase to 1,200 AFY after 2030 (Table 6-6).

Deliveries to LADWP
Burbank has an agreement with LADWP to exchange BWRP -produced recycled water for an equivalent amount of groundwater credits in the SFB . In 2025 , recycled water deliveries to LADWP were 17 AF, approximately 93% lower than projected in the 2020 UWMP (Table 6-7). However, Burbank anticipates exchanging up to 260 AF of recycled water with LADWP through 2050 (Table 6-6).

Commercial Cooling Systems
Early in 2010, Burbank identified a major opportunity for use of its recycled water in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) cooling towers of commercial buildings. The cooling tower serving Burbank’s administration building was converted to use recycled water in 2010. Burbank also identified several cooling locations in Burbank which are feasible to serve with recycled water. In 2025, these locations used 653 AF of recycled water, consistent with projections in the 2020 UWMP (Table 6-7). Commercial use for recycled water is expected to remain relatively constant through 2050 (Table 6-6).

Recycled Water Fill Stations
Burbank provides recycled water at designated truck fill stations to supply non -potable uses , such as construction, dust control, and street maintenance. Burbank also offers temporary residential fill stations that allow customers to collect up to 300 gallons of recycled water at no cost. This program was piloted during the 2015 drought and reactivated again in September 2022. Approximately 1 AF was provided in 2025, and demand is projected to increase to 3 AF by 2050. While the volumes are relatively small, the programs provide valuable public outreach value by promoting Burbank’s recycled water efforts.

6.5.4 Current, Potential, and Projected Recycled Water Uses

As shown in Table 6 -6 and Table 6-7, the Burbank service area used approximately 2,913 AF of recycled water in 2025 for power production, landscape irrigation (including golf course irrigation), and commercial cooling systems. Additionally, Burbank exchanged 17 AF of recycled water with LADWP for groundwater credits in the SFB, totaling 2,930 AF of recycled water for direct beneficial uses.

Burbank’s recycled water distribution mains are not planned for further expansion. However, in accordance with BWP’s Rules and Regulations for Utility Service , customers are required to use recycled water for non -potable demands where service is available and economically reasonable. Additionally, recycled water use for both power production and landscape irrigation is expected to return to higher use levels as seen in previous years, and the demands from LADWP are anticipated to continue growing (see Section 6.5.3 f or more information about each individual water use). Therefore total recycled water use is projected to increase to 3,593 AFY by 2030 and remain constant through 2050.

Direct potable reuse (DPR) regulations became effective on 1 October 2024 following decades of research and studies by experts. The regulations ensure that DPR water meets or exceeds all drinking water standards and contain stringent regulations for emerging contaminants. Burbank is conducting a feasibility study on DPR, which could increase water supply by 2,500 AFY. However, because this effort is in the feasibility phase, DPR is not included as a supply in this UWMP. If DPR is implemented, supply will be evaluated in future UWMPs.

6.5.5 Actions to Encourage and Optimize Future Recycled Water Use City Council and Department Managers have consistently supported the use of recycled water. Recycled water provides Burbank with the opportunity to conserve scarce imported and local potable water supplies. The City has full-time staff to assist existing users in complying with regulatory requirements and to encourage the development of new users. To encourage the use of recycled water, the City offers recycled water at approximately 90% of the corresponding potable water rate.

BWP’s Rules and Regulations for Utility Service clarify the requirements to receive recycled water service, which standardizes and facilitates recycled water use. Conversion to recycled water is required when the recycled transmission main fronting the parcel is put in service. R ecycled water use, when required, is a condition of potable water service. The parcel owner is responsible for all onsite retrofits necessary to use recycled water on the property.

Burbank’s agreement with the LADWP to exchange recycled water for groundwater credits in -kind will also continue to encourage and optimize future recycled water use in the City of Los Angeles.

Furthermore, Burbank is currently exploring DPR. If Burbank finds that DPR is economically, politically, and environmentally feasible, it could enable the reuse of BWRP effluent.

6.6 Desalinated Water

Burbank, located inland in the San Fernando Valley, has limited opportunity for desalination of ocean water. Additionally, t he groundwater is not brackish. To remove substances like chromium or nitrate, membrane processes like those often used for desalination may one day be used. However, disposal of the brine from such processes is more of a problem than for seaside locations which can send it to an ocean outfall.

Seawater desalination represents a significant opportunity to diversi fy the region's water resources with a new, locally controlled, reliable potable supply. A seven-agency consortium, including Burbank and led by Las Virgenes Municipal Water District (LVMWD), is funding an independent feasibility study on onshore infrastructure for WF1, the first subsea reverse osmosis desalination project in the United States (OceanWell, 2025).
13 If WF1 is successful, Burbank would potentially receive additional supply through exchanges with other MWD member agencies who are closer to the coast and who would receive the desalinated water directly from WF1. However, because WF1 is currently in the feasibility study phase, no desalinated supplies are projected in this plan.

13 The seven-agency consortium includes LVMWD, Burbank, Los Angeles County Waterworks District No. 29 (Malibu), Calleguas Municipal Water District, LADWP, Upper San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District, and Santa Clarita Valley Water Agency.
 CWC §10631(g) A plan shall be adopted in accordance with this chapter and shall do all of the following:

Describe the opportunities for development of desalinated water, including, but not limited to, ocean water, brackish water, and groundwater, as a long-term supply.

6.7 Water Exchanges and Transfers

6.7.1 MWD Supply Exchanges
DWR requires water suppliers to describe the opportunities for exchanges or transfers of water on a short- term or long-term basis. As a member agency of the MWD, Burbank may contribute to the development of exchanges, transfers, and water banking through its MWD water purchases.

Additionally, as previously described in Section 6.6, Burbank is exploring the potential to exchange new local supplies with MWD member agencies. Local supplies are not affected by MWD’s allocation plan that reduces water use during dry years.

6.7.2 LADWP Supply Exchanges
Burbank has multiple ongoing transfer and exchange agreements with LADWP. In 2015, Burbank and LADWP entered into an agreement to construct and operate an interim water system connection to transfer potable water to LADWP, treated at BOU. When Burbank’s water demand is lower than the BOU’s treatment capacity , Burbank uses the additional capacity to continue to treat the contaminated groundwater at a higher rate and send the balance of the treated water to LADWP. This allows LADWP to produce its annual entitlement to groundwater from the SFB, while maximizing the treatment capacity at BOU. Per the transfer agreement, LADWP will directly reimburse MWD for the water used to blend with groundwater, and LADWP will reimburse Burbank the costs related to operation and maintenance of the distribution and treatment systems. Because this exchange is intended only for operational flexibility, no exchanges or transfers with LADWP are assumed as a supply in this UWMP.

Furthermore, as described in Section 6.5.4, Burbank has agreed to supply LADWP customers with recycled water in exchange for groundwater cre dits in SFB. In 2025 Burbank delivered 17 AF to these customers , though Burbank anticipates providing up to 260 AFY of recycled water after 2030.

6.7.3 Glendale Supply Exchanges
Burbank’s potable water distribution system has multiple interconnections with Glendale that have been used on several occasions to solve short -term operational problems, such as a need for extra water because an MWD connection or pump station is out of service. The policy has been to return the same amount of water, rather than buying and selling water. If MWD had to ration water during a drought, both cities would be affected. The interconnections would only help if one city had extra groundwater pumping capacity to share. The two cities’ recycled water distribution systems are also interconnected at one location. Historically, Glendale has relied on Burbank’s recycled water to accommodate planned plant shutdowns, while Burbank has used Glendale’s recycled water from the L os Angeles -Glendale Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) to supplement its own supply during an unplanned sewage pump station shutdown. Because these interconnections are intended for short-term operational flexibility, no exchanges or transfers with Glendale are assumed as a supply in this UWMP.

6.8 Supply from Storage
Per the 2025 UWMP Guidebook, supply for storage includes only water placed into storage prior to the current reporting year. Water stored and retrieved within the same year is reported under its original source (e.g., imported or purchased water) to avoid double counting.  CWC §10631
(c) Describe the opportunities for exchanges or transfers of water on a short-term or long-term basis.

Section 6 2025 Urban Water Management Plan
Normal Year Water Supply Characterization City of Burbank PUBLIC DRAFT | May 2026
6-19 EKI Environment & Water, Inc.

As described in Section 6.1, Burbank spreads raw water from MWD in the SFB, and the volume recharged is credited towards the total volume that Burbank is allowed to pump each year. In most years, Burbank’s groundwater extractions exceed recharge, so groundwater credits are fully used within the same year .

This supply is treated as p ass-through or short -term storage and is therefore reported as purchased or imported raw water from MWD in this UWMP . In some years , Burbank recharges more water than it extracts, allowing additional groundwater credits to be saved for future withdrawal. While this represents “supply from storage,” it is reported herein as groundwater supply as it remains subject to the SFB Judgment and is managed by the ULARA Watermaster.

6.9 Future Water Projects

As described in previous sections, Burbank is currently conducting a feasibility study on DPR, which could potentially increase water supply if found to be economically, politically, and environmental ly feasible.

Burbank has also joined a consortium of seven water suppliers led by LVMWD as part of WF1 to evaluate desalination opportunities. Because these projects are in the early feasibility study phase and potential water supply benefits have not been confirmed, their potential supplies are not included in this UWMP (Table 6-9). If implemented, these supplies will be evaluated in future UWMPs.

Table 6-9 Expected Future Water Supply Projects or Programs (DWR Table 6-7) ☐ There are no expected future water supply projects or programs that provide a quantifiable increase to the agency's water supply.
☒ Some or all of the supplier's future water supply projects or programs are not compatible with this table and are described in a narrative format. 6-19 Provide page location of narrative in the UWMP.

6.10 Summary of Existing and Planned Sources of Water
Burbank’s primary water supplies include purchased treated and raw water from MWD, local groundwater from the SFB treated at the BOU, and recycled water produced at the BWRP. Table 6-10 summarizes the actual water supply volumes produced in 2025. As noted in Table 6-11, Burbank does not reduce salinity prior to distribution. Table 6-12 summarizes the projected water supplies for Burbank in five-year increments through 2050 for purchased water, groundwater, and recycled water . Available supplies are anticipated to increase by 77% between 2025 and 2050, consistent with demand increases in Table 4-5.

6.11 Special Conditions
Several conditions may affect the availability of Burbank’s future water supplies, including climate change, regulatory conditions, and other local factors.

6.11.1 Climate Change Effects
Climate change may affect water supplies in multiple ways. For example, extreme and higher temperatures can lead to declining snowpack and earlier runoff patterns, which could result in changes in stream flows and reservoir operations. Both the SWP and Colorado River depend on snowpack and river flows, which are projected to become increasingly variable with shifting precipitation patterns. MWD has identified multiple climate risks that could impact water supply, water quality, and infrastructure which include extended droughts, sea-level rise, increased flooding, wildfires, and extreme heat (MWD, 2025).

To plan for the anticipated impacts to water supply reliability due to climate change, efforts have been taken to increase reliability on both a regional and local level. As discussed in Section 6.5, Burbank began producing recycled water at the BWRP in 1988, and in 2025 recycled water met about 17% of Burbank’s total water demand. Burbank will continue encouraging increased recycled water use within i ts service area, as described in Section 6.5.5. This drought -resistant source of supply will continue to reduce Burbank’s dependency on imported water and will also reduce the potential impacts to water supply availability during future droughts. Burbank is also exploring integrating potable reuse and desalinated water supplies into its supply portfolio (see Section 6.5 and Section 6.6 for more details ). Both projects would allow Burbank to provide additional local, and drought-proof water supply to its customers. Finally, as discussed in Section 9, Burbank continues to participate in water conservation programs that have proven to reduce customers’ water consumption over time. Other MWD member agencies are following a similar approach and combined, these local supplies are factored into MWD’s UWMP.

Burbank is committed to incorporating climate change into its ongoing water supply planning. If Burbank does move forward with any plans to develop supply projects, climate change impacts will be considered, and the associated water supply reliability impacts will be assessed in future UWMP updates.

6.11.2 Regulatory Conditions and Project Development
Emerging regulatory conditions, such as the ongoing negotiations regarding the post-2026 operations of the Colorado River and issues related to the Bay-Delta Plan ( Section 7.1.1), may affect planned future projects and the characterization of future imported water supply availability and analyses . If Burbank does move forward with any plans to develop supply projects, emerging regulatory conditions will be considered, and the associated water supply reliability impacts will be assessed in future UWMP updates.

6.11.3 Other Locally Applicable Criteria
Other locally applicable criteria may affect characterization and availability of an identified water supply, such as changes in regional water transfer rules may alter the availability of a water supply that had historically been readily available. If Burbank does move forward with any plans to develop supply projects, locally applicable criteria will be considered, and the associated water supply reliability impacts will be assessed in future UWMP updates.

6.11.4 Wholesale and Retail Suppliers Coordination
Burbank will continue to coordinate with MWD and other member agencies in its future water supply planning, including the potential potable reuse project and the WF1 desalination project, which c ould create an exchange arrangement among several MWD member agencies.

6.12 Energy Intensity

The “Total Utility Approach” as defined by DWR in the 2025 UWMP Guidebook is used to report water- related energy-consumption data for Burbank. Water energy intensity is the total amount of energy expended, on a per AF basis, to take water from the location Burbank acquires it to the point of delivery.

Table 6-13 shows the energy consumed through the operation of its potable water distribution system , and does not include energy associated with the treatment of wastewater. Calendar year 2025 was selected as the one-year reporting period. The total energy use for distributing 14,635 AF of potable water was 5,135,318 kilowatt hours (kWh), resulting in an energy intensity of approximately 351 kWh/AF (1,077 kWh/MG).

7 WATER SUPPLY RELIABILITY AND DROUGHT RISK ASSESSMENT
This section of the UWMP describes the reliability of Burbank’s water supplies, considering the security of both water sources and system infrastructure. The supply reliability assessment considers factors that could potentially limit the expected quantity of water available from Burbank ’s current and projected sources of supply through 2050.

7.1 Constraints on Water Sources

The following sections provide a summary of potential constraints on future water supply availability, water quality, and climate change, and how t hese considerations may affect water management strategies and supply reliability.

7.1.1 Supply Availability
Burbank’s water supply portfolio includes a combination of imported water supply from MWD , local groundwater from SFB, and recycled water. Water supply availability can vary by source.

Purchased Water
Burbank is a member agency of and obtains purchased water from MWD. As described in Section 6.1, MWD’s imported water supplies are sourced from the Colorado River and the SWP, both of which are susceptible to supply reductions in dry years. MWD conducts supply reliability analyses as part of its long- term supply planning. MWD incorporates assumptions for Colorado River and Delta supply reliability into scenario planning, including assumptions related to regulations, agreements, and facility improvements.

MWD’s long -term planning also incorporates assumptions for local supply availability, forecasted demand, and storage facilities. In addition, MWD incorporates the impacts and risks associated with climate change into its planning efforts for purchased or imported water through its 2020 Integrated Resource Plan and Climate Adaptation Master Plan for Water (MWD, 2026).

MWD member agencies, including Burbank, request deliveries of imported water from MWD that are received via connections to MWD’s regional distribution system. During drought periods when imported water availability is low, MWD can access its various storage facilities to continue to provide re liable supply, and if needed can request that member agencies implement water conservation measures to  CWC §10631

ensure demands can be met. MWD anticipates it has reliable water supply available to meet its member agencies’ demands in all hydrologic year types through 2050 (MWD, 2026).

An important component of MWD’s contingency plan for responding to water shortages is the Water Supply Allocation Plan (WSAP), which MWD’s Board of Directors approved in February 2008 and most recently updated in 2014. It is based on a guiding principle de veloped out of the Water Surplus and Drought Management Plan for allocating shortages across MWD’s service area. The WSAP formula uses different adjustments and credits to balance impacts of water shortage at the retail level, where local supplies can vary dramatically, and provide equity on the wholesale level among member agencies. It also takes into account the following: growth in demand, local investments, change in local supply conditions, the reduction in potable water demand from recycled water, and the implementation of water conservation programs (MWD, 2026).

Colorado River Supplies
The Colorado River has experienced drought conditions for more than two decades, resulting in development of a series of guiding documents and agreements to manage Colorado River supplies under shortage conditions . The 2007 Interim Guidelines were developed to respond to the changing river hydrology, providing coordinated operations of Lake Powell and Lake Mead, as well as the Intentionally Created Surplus program, which allows MWD to store water in Lake Mead. Due to declining water levels, the 2019 Lower Basin Drought Contingency Plan (2019 Drought Contingency Plan) was developed by United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) and the Colorado River Basin states to reduce the risk of Lake Mead and Lake Powell reaching critically low levels. The existing operating agreements, including the 2007 Interim Guidelines and the 2019 Drought Contingency Plan, are set to expire by the end of 2026.

Negotiations for long-term operations for Lake Powell and Lake Mead after 2026 are ongoing. USBR is developing a new long-term operating plan, which requires a thorough review of environmental impacts under the National Environmental Policy Act. A draft Environmental Impact Statement was released in January 2026. In the meantime, the California agencies that depend on the Colorado River, including MWD, are discussing a framework agreement regarding how shortages will be shared. Accordingly, future drought planning and management remain subject to ongoing negotiations.

MWD has incorporated the uncertainty surrounding future Colorado River supplies into its long-term supply modeling. For the 2025 UWMP, MWD modeled Colorado River supplies consistent with USBR’s Colorado River Simulation System with an additional climate change adjustment that reduces projected inflows over time. MWD’s 2025 UWMP also assumes that current Colorado River o perating agreements will remain in place throughout the planning horizon (MWD, 2026).

SWP Supplies
For SWP supplies, Table A in water supply contracts between the state water contractors and DWR set forth the base annual water supply entitlement that a state water contractor may expect to be provided under the contract. However, actual delivery varies by year, depending on hydrologic conditions, water quality and environmental conditions,
14 state water contractor delivery requests, current reservoir storage, and other operational factors. Table A allocation percentages are publicly determined by DWR’s modeling, analyses, and operations. The state water contractors may also receive other supplies that are

14 The Bay-Delta Water Quality Control Plan (Bay-Delta Plan) establishes flow and water quality standards for the Delta and its tributaries. The Bay-Delta Plan was last comprehensively updated in 1995, and while amendments were made in 2018, they have not yet been implemented. The SWRCB is currently considering further updates, including a proposed Voluntary Agreement as an alternative to stricter regulatory standards, which could affect water availability for state water contractors.

“carried over” from prior years’ entitlements or made available as hydrologic conditions warrant, above and beyond their Table A allocations (DWR, n.d.).

There are ongoing efforts aimed at increasing the long-term supply reliability of the SWP. The Delta Conveyance Project (DCP), for example, proposes to modernize the state’s aging water conveyance infrastructure by bypassing the tracts and sloughs of the central Delta, conveying water directly from the northern Delta to the SWP pumping facilities at the south of the Delta via an underground tunnel. The DCP would reduce the vulnerability of the SWP to salinity intrusion, levee failure, and other potential impacts to SWP operations as a result of climate change, sea-level rise, and earthquakes. The DCP would also address Delta ecosystem health by reducing the timing and intensity of current pumping operations impacting flows across the Delta. Recognizing these issues, MWD’s Board of Directors voted in 2020 and 2024 to support funding its share of the DCP environmental planning and pre-construction costs necessary to advance the project (MWD, 2026). In May 2025, Governor Newsom introduced a package of legislation aiming to expedite DCP implementation (MWD, n.d.).

Another effort, the Sites Reservoir Project, is a proposed 1.5 million AF off-stream storage reservoir in the Sacramento Valley that would require the construction of two large dams up to 310 feet high and nine smaller saddle dams. The water stored in the reservoir would be diverted from the Sacramento River during high flow events and returned to the Sacramento River during dry and critical years, thereby providing additional dry-year water for environmental flows and project partners including SWP agencies south of the Delta (MWD, 2026).

MWD has incorporated assumptions regarding SWP reliability into long term supply planning based on assumptions provided in the 2025 SWP Delivery Capability Report, which presents DWR estimates for SWP water availability under future conditions. Although the DCP and Sites Reservoir Project could provide significant potential benefits to MWD’s future supply reliability, MWD’s reliability assessment conservatively does not include any changes in supply reliability that could result from new facilities proposed under the DCP and Sites Reservoir Project (MWD, 2026).

Groundwater
Groundwater helps Burbank’s overall supply reliability by providing a reserve during emergencies or droughts. The capacity and reliability of Burbank’s groundwater supply require consideration of many issues including:
• Water rights
• Aquifer storage capacity
• Physical well and pump capacity
• Treatment capacity
• Water quality issues
As detailed in Section 6.2, the Judgment gives Burbank the right to store water in the aquifer under the administration of the ULARA Watermaster. Burbank can purchase MWD raw water for groundwater replenishment through spreading in order to add to its stored water credits. To maintain and optimize groundwater pumping, Burbank needs to acquire about 7, 300 AF of groundwater per year, on average, through replenishment or a combination of replenishment and Physical Water Solution purchases.

Unavailable replenishment water during a long drought could limit the City’s ability to add to its groundwater “bank”. The City currently has a reserve of approximately 14,000 AF in groundwater credits, allowing normal extractions to continue for about two years without replenishment, assuming the purchase of 4,200 AF of Physical Solution Water.

Because Burbank has flexibility in the management of groundwater in accordance with the Judgment , Burbank’s groundwater supplies are assumed to be fully reliable under all hydrologic year types throughout the 25-year planning horizon of this UWMP.

Recycled Water
All of Burbank’s recycled water is supplied by BWRP and is considered fully reliable in all hydrologic year types, as it is generated from indoor water use. To address potential outages , Burbank maintains contingency measures, including a recycled water system interconnect ion with Glendale for backup recycled water supply from the L os Angeles -Glendale W RP, and the ability for MPP to supplement or replace recycled water supply with groundwater.

7.1.2 Water Quality

The drinking water quality of the Burbank s ystem must comply with state and federal water quality regulations. As such, i mpaired water quality also has the potential to affect water supply reliability.

Burbank has and will continue to meet all state and federal water quality regulations. All drinking water standards are set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) under the authorization of the Federal Safe Drinking Water Act of 1974. In California, the SWRCB DDW can either adopt the USEPA standards or set more stringent standards, which are then codified in Title 22 of the CCR . There are two general types of drinking water standards:
• Primary MCLs are health protective standards and are established using a very conservative risk - based approach for each constituent that considers potential health effects, detectability and treatability, and costs of treatment. Public water systems may not serve water that exceeds Primary MCLs for any constituent.
• Secondary MCLs are based on the aesthetic qualities of the water such as taste, odor, color, and certain mineral content, and are considered limits for constituents that may affect consumer acceptance of the water.

The potable water Burbank delivers to its customers is a blend of local groundwater and treated purchased water from MWD. Burbank routinely monitors its wells and the water that is treated and served to customers to ensure that water delivered to customers meets these drinking water standards. The results of this testing are reported to the SWRCB DDW following each test and are summarized annually in Water Quality Reports (also known as “Consumer Confidence Reports”), which are provided to customers electronically/by mail.
15 Given Burbank’s proactive monitoring and management of water quality in its source water supplies, water quality is not expected to impact the reliability of Burbank ’s available supplies within the planning horizon (i.e., through 2050).

15 Consumer Confidence Reports are available on Burbank’s website at:
https://www.burbankwaterandpower.com/water/water-supply/water-quality-reports  CWC §10634
The plan shall include information, to the extent practicable, relating to the quality of existing sources of water available to the supplier over the same five-year increments as described in subdivision (a) of Section 10631, and the manner in which water quality affects water management strategies and supply reliability.

Purchased Water
The untreated raw water purchased from MWD has recently been found to be contaminated with quagga mussels, requiring Burbank to temporarily stop spreading water at the Pacoima and Lopez s preading grounds. In 2025, Burbank completed Raw Water Discharge Plans, which are expected to allow spreading to resume in 2026. If spreading is not restored for an extended period, Burbank’s annual groundwater allowance would be impacted, and Burbank would likely need to increase treated imported water supply purchases from MWD and/or purchase additional groundwater credits from the City of Los Angeles.

Groundwater
All of the City’s production wells have varying degrees of VOC contamination. As described in Section 6.2.1, the BOU has significantly reduced VOC concentrations. A breakthrough in the system would require a shutdown of both treatment plants and create a complete loss of the groundwater supply.

Historically, elevated nitrate levels in the groundwater make it necessary to blend with MWD water to meet drinking water standards. Currently, nitrate levels are below the MCL at the BOU wells, indicating it could supply the City without blending in case of an emergency MWD shutdown. However, approval for emergency use of this source without blending would have to be obtained through the SWRCB DDW.

A few of the City’s wells have high hexavalent chromium ( Cr-6) levels. C urrently, the BOU is using a blending plan to reduce the concentrations to below the regulatory levels. If the blending plan is no longer effective, implementation of a more advanced treatment method will be required. Other emerging constituents like 1,4 -Dioxane, nitrosamines, perchlorate, uranium and microplastics that cannot be removed by Burbank’s existing treatment plants could affect groundwater reliability and may also need costly treatment.

Starting in 2018, Burbank has increased sampling for per - and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water in accordance with SWRCB requirements. Policy regarding PFAS is rapidly evolving.

Currently, the BOU is removing the PFAS, and BOU wells have remained in compliance through Burbank’s effort to stay ahead of regulations. However, regulatory constraints for emerging contaminants such as PFAS do pose a possible risk to the reliability of groundwater if they are to change in the future.

Although there is the potential for some regulated constituents to be present in source water, Burbank ’s monitoring, management, and treatment of its water results in high quality drinking water meeting all drinking water standards being served to customers. Burbank tracks changes in constituent concentrations to proactively address water quality issues before they impact supply reliability. In the event that water quality constituents are detected in source water at concentrations requiring treatment, Burbank is able to increase its blending program with MWD supply and/or take impacted wells offline to implement appropriate treatment as needed.

Recycled Water
Increased salt and nutrient loading are a growing concern to the SFB. The SWRCB mandated each basin to adopt a Salt and Nutrient Management Plan (SNMP) by 2016. The City participated in the SNMP process through the ULARA Watermaster. Recycled water usually has higher total dissolved solids (TDS) and chloride content than potable water, which may affect groundwater as it infiltrates. Recent groundwater data suggest TDS and chloride loading from irrigation with recycled water have not negatively affected the groundwater in the SFB.

7.1.3 Climate Change

Section 6.11 provides a summary of potential climate change impacts that both Burbank and MWD are addressing. Burbank is actively pursuing multiple initiatives to increase its local and drought resistant supplies, such as potable reuse and desalinated water transfers . As part of its 2025 UWMP, MWD also incorporated climate change factors in both its demand projections and supply reliability analysis.

Burbank is doing more work to further quantify and consider future climate change impacts as part of ongoing supply and operations planning.

7.2 Reliability by Type of Year

Per the 2025 UWMP Guidebook, the water service reliability assessment includes three unique year types:
• A normal hydrologic year represents the water supplies available under normal conditions; this could be an averaged range of years or a single representative year, • A single dry year represents the lowest available water supply, and • A five-consecutive year drought represents the driest five-year period in the historical record.

The future water demands for the City and the entire region have been estimated by MWD using its Econometric Demand Model, developed by the Brattle Group. This model uses forecast data from SCAG for variables including population, housing units, and employ ment. These MWD projections provide the basis for dry-year reliability planning. The available imported supplies by year type are provided by MWD in Appendix E and are presented in Table 7-1.

Generally, dry weather, especially hot, dry weather, causes an increase in water demand, mostly for landscape irrigation. However, conservation practices during past droughts have been sufficient to lower demands. Burbank achieved a 10% reduction in water use during the 1990/91 drought, a 20% reduction for the 2008-2010 drought, and a 24% reduction in the 2014-2016 drought, and a 17% reduction in the 2021-2022 drought. Based on an analysis completed by MWD as part of its 2025 U WMP (Appendix E), Burbank’s potable demands are projected to decrease by 0.5% during single dry years, and fluctuate from a 1.5% decrease to a 2% increase in multiple dry years. Burbank’s non-potable demands are assumed to remain unchanged during dry periods.

The base years listed in Table 7-1 were chosen as the driest years for MWD over a 100-year historical hydrologic record. In reviewing the 100 -year record, MWD found that the SWP allocations fluctuate the most in response to extreme hydrologic conditions, and this five-year drought period (1988-1992) reflects the lowest SWP allocations to MWD on record. MWD assessed the reliability of its own supply sources, as well as the in -region resources based on the hydrologic conditions present over that five-year period.

MWD also included climate change impacts provided by DWR in regards to the SWP delivery capability, and climate change factors for Colorado River system based on modeling from USBR. MWD projects 100% reliability for full -service demands through the year 20 50 based on its 2025 UWMP (MWD, 2026) . In addition to having reliable imported water supply from MWD, Burbank’s groundwater and recycled water supplies are anticipated to be unaffected by dry periods , as described in Section 7.1.1. Therefore, Table 7-1 assumes 100% reliability of all of Burbank’s water supplies in all year types.

Table 7-3 compares the projected supply and demand totals over the 25-year planning horizon under single dry year conditions. Based on projections provided by MWD ( Appendix E) and adjusted assuming that the development potential contemplated in the DTSP and MDSP is achieved by 2035, Bur bank’s demands are anticipated to decrease by approximately 0.5% in single dry years. Overall demand decreases during single dry years can result from several factors, including implementation of water shortage response measures and conservation requirements, reductions in outdoor irrigation, and increased conservation awareness. MWD expects to maintain sufficient and reliable water supplies to meet the imported water demands of its member agencies, including Burbank, in single years through 2050 (MWD, 2026). Burbank’s groundwater and recycled water are also considered reliable in single dry years.

Accordingly, projected supply is assumed to equal projected demands through 2050, and no WSCP actions are reflected in Table 7-3.

This reflects the competing effects of sustained conservation and water use efficiency and the long-term impacts of climate change.

7.4 Water Supply Management Tools and Options

Burbank coordinates on an ongoing basis with all relevant agencies in the region to optimize the use of regional water supplies. This includes MWD, LADWP, Glendale, and other public and private entities with which Burbank can collaborate to protect and enhance local water resources. Burbank and LADWP are both continu ing to encourage new customers to connect to Burbank’s recycled water system where feasible, and Burbank is exploring the possibility of adding DPR to its supply portfolio , as described in Section 6.5.5. Burbank has also joined a consortium of seven agencies led by LVMWD to explore WF1, as discussed in Section 6.6. These programs represent both local and regional coordinated efforts to increase local supplies and reduce reliance on imported water.

7.5 Drought Risk Assessment

In addition to the long-term water service reliability assessment presented above, the Drought Risk Assessment evaluates Burbank’s supply risks under a severe drought period lasting for the next five consecutive years after the assessment is completed. The Drought Risk Assessment is intended to inform the demand management measures (DMM) and water supply projects and programs to be included in the UWMP (see Section 9). Suppliers may conduct an interim update or updates to this D rought Risk Assessment within the five-year cycle of its UWMP update (i.e., before the 2030 UWMP).

7.5.1 Data, Methods, and Basis for Water Shortage Condition This evaluation considers historical drought hydrology and plausible changes on projected supplies and demands under climate change conditions, anticipated regulatory changes, and other locally applicable criteria. As a first step to the Drought Risk Assessment, Burbank estimated unconstrained water demand for the next five years (i.e., 2026-2030). Unconstrained water demand is the expected water use in the absence of drought water use restrictions. The characteristic five -year water demand is described in Section 4.7. The available potable water supplies assumed in the Drought Risk Assessment are based upon the same methodology and assumptions used for the long-term water service reliability assessment in Section 7.3 and relies on information from MWD’s 2025 UWMP . Details of how Burbank’s available supplies are then estimated as part of the Drought Risk Assessment are provided below.

7.5.2 Drought Risk Assessment Individual Water Source Reliability Burbank’s available imported supplies during the five-consecutive -year drought are based on an assessment by MWD, which reviewed its SWP and Colorado River supplies during the driest five-year period from the 100-year hydrologic record (1921-2021). MWD also included climate change impacts to delivery capacity and allocations from both sources. Despite cutbacks from both sources, MWD e xpects to maintain sufficient and reliable water supplies to meet the imported water demands of its member agencies, including Burbank. In addition, the SFB is adjudicated, and groundwater supplies can be managed adaptively in accordance with the Judgment. Accordingly , projected groundwater suppl ies are assumed to be reliable during drought conditions . Recycled water purchases are considered drought -  CWC §10635(b)
Every urban water supplier shall include, as part of its urban water management plan, a drought risk assessment for its water service to its customers as part of information considered in developing the demand management measures and water supply projects and programs to be included in the urban water management plan. The urban water supplier may conduct an interim update or updates to this drought risk assessment within the five - year cycle of its urban water management plan update. The drought risk assessment shall include each of the following:
(1) A description of the data, methodology, and basis for one or more supply shortage conditions that are necessary to conduct a drought risk assessment for a drought period that lasts five consecutive water years, starting from the year following when the assessment is conducted. (2) A determination of the reliability of each source of supply under a variety of water shortage conditions. This may include a determination that a particular source of water supply is fully reliable under most, if not all, conditions.
(3) A comparison of the total water supply sources available to the water supplier with the total projected water use for the drought period.
(4) Considerations of the historical drought hydrology, plausible changes on projected supplies and demands under climate change conditions, anticipated regulatory changes, and other locally applicable criteria.

Water Shortage Contingency Planning City of Burbank
PUBLIC DRAFT | May 2026

8 WATER SHORTAGE CONTINGENCY PLANNING

This Water Shortage Contingency Plan (WSCP) for the City of Burbank (Burbank or City) addresses the requirements in California Water Code (CWC) §10632 of the Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) Act.

The WSCP includes the stages of response to a water sho rtage caused by drought, water supply reductions, failure of a water distribution system, or other emergencies. The objectives of this WSCP are to describe and demonstrate Burbank’s ability to meet water demands where emphasis is placed on the protection of public health and safety. This WSCP serves as a guide for Burbank’s intended actions during water shortage conditions to ensure a quick and adequate response in managing and mitigating possible water shortages.

The WSCP is organized into twelve sections and includes each of the following elements as indicated by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) 2025 UWMP Guidebook:

1. An analysis of water supply reliability

8.1 Water Supply Reliability Analysis

Burbank has three primary sources of water supply: imported water, groundwater, and recycled water.

Treated and raw i mported water is purchased from its wholesaler, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD). Burbank also pumps groundwater from the San Fernando Basin (SFB) of the Coastal Plain of Los Angeles Groundwater Basin . The SFB is adjudicated, and Burbank is entitled to an Import Return Credit (IRC) of 20%, storage of imported water, stored water credits, and Physical Solution Water equivalent to 4,200 acre -feet per year ( AFY). If needed and assuming the SFB still held enough water, Burbank would have to negotiate the purchase of additional groundwater from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power ( LADWP). Burbank also has access to r ecycled water from the Burbank Water Reclamation Plant (BWRP).

Burbank has a reliable water supply in normal, single dry, and multiple dry year conditions through 2050 (see Section 7.3 of the Burbank 2025 UWMP). Burbank maintains a diverse water supply portfolio that allows the City to conjunctively use purchased and groundwater asset s. To reduce reliance on imported water supplies, Burbank has expanded its local resources, including recycled water to meet non-potable demands. Burbank is currently evaluating potential opportunities such as DPR and water exchanges with other MWD member agencies associated with a potential ocean desalination project to augment regional potable supplies.

When determining the availability of supply for any given period, Burbank evaluates not only the total quantity of supplies , but also consider s other factors that affect their reliability and accessibility . This includes:
• Infrastructure Capacity: Evaluating the infrastructure capacity to extract groundwater, deliver imported water, and distribute water through the distribution systems is of high importance in determining the availability of water supplies.
• Timing of Delivery: The timing of delivery of water supplies must be considered in assessing the supply availability, particularly water from the State Water Project (SWP). For example, in January 2014, DWR reduced SWP allocation to zero, limiting water supplies.

Burbank has developed redundant infrastructure systems to help mitigate outages that may be due to factors beyond hydrology or regulatory constraints. For example, Burbank has interconnections with the Glendale Power & Water (Glendale) and the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP).  CWC §10632

8.2 AWSDA Procedures

Urban suppliers are required to submit an AWSDA to DWR by July 1 each year . The AWSDA examines Burbank's water reliability for the current year and one additional dry year to determine what, if any, water shortages stages may be triggered during the required period . The steps and timing to complete the AWSDA and submit the final report are listed below to provide consistency year-after-year regardless of City staff changes:

1. April-May
a. Initial Burbank determines total available supply – inclusive of imported water supply.
b. Burbank determines infrastructure constraints (including water quality conditions limiting local sources).
c. Burbank determines expected demand for current year and next year. d. Burbank compares supply and demand and makes a determination of the water supply reliability.

2. June
a. Draft AWSDA and results briefing for Burbank staff.
b. AWSDA report to be submitted to DWR by July 1.
 CWC §10632
(a)(2) The procedures used in conducting an annual water supply and demand assessment that include, at a minimum, both of the following:
(A) The written decision-making process that an urban water supplier will use each year to determine its water supply reliability.
(B) The key data inputs and assessment methodology used to evaluate the urban water supplier’s water supply reliability for the current year and one dry year, including all of the following:
(i) Current year unconstrained demand, considering weather, growth, and other influencing factors, such as policies to manage current supplies to meet demand objectives in future years, as applicable. (ii) Current year available supply, considering hydrological and regulatory conditions in the current year and one dry year. The annual supply and demand assessment may consider more than one dry year solely at the discretion of the urban water supplier.
(iii) Existing infrastructure capabilities and plausible constraints. (iv) A defined set of locally applicable evaluation criteria that are consistently relied upon for each annual water supply and demand assessment.
(v) A description and quantification of each source of water supply.  CWC §10632.1
An urban water supplier shall conduct an annual water supply and demand assessment pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 10632 and, on or before July 1 of each year, submit an annual water shortage assessment report to the department with information for anticipated shortage, triggered shortage response actions, compliance and enforcement actions, and communication actions consistent with the supplier’s water shortage contingency plan.

An urban water supplier that relies on imported water from the State Water Project or the Bureau of Reclamation shall submit its annual water supply and demand assessment within 14 days of receiving its final allocations, or by July 1 of each year, whichever is later.

It should be noted that this timeline serves as a guideline for preparing the AWSDA and may be modified based on circumstances relevant at that time.

8.2.1 Decision-Making Process
A decision-making process will occur each year to approve the water supply reliability determination of the AWSDA. The AWSDA will document anticipated shortages if any, triggered shortage response actions, associated compliance and enforcement actions, and communication actions. If the AWSDA determines a potential supply shortage, the City Council’s approval of the AWSDA, with potential coordination with MWD, will also serve as a formal declaration of any foreseen water shortage level, and trigger recommendations for specific shortage response actions.

8.2.2 Data and Methodologies
This section describes the key data inputs and AWSDA methodologies used to evaluate the water system reliability for the coming year, while considering that the year to follow would be considered dry. For purposes of this analysis, Burbank’s definition of dry year mimics characteristics of a single dry year as defined in Section 7.2 of the Burbank 2025 UWMP. This also aligns with the water shortage levels described in Section 8.3.

Evaluation Criteria
The City will evaluate both local supplies and imported supplies as part of the AWSDA . The local supply evaluation will include evaluation of changes in groundwater availability, changes in recycled water availability, and recent demand trends to determine any deviations from normal availability. To evaluate imported water, the City will r ely on MWD’s evaluation of regional supplies and demands to evaluate shortage levels.

Water Supply
Burbank will quantify each source of water supply on a monthly basis. The evaluated supply sources will include treated and raw imported water purchases from MWD, groundwater from the SFB, and recycled water.

Imported Water: Burbank will rely on MWD and its 2025 UWMP to evaluate imported water supplies.

MWD will evaluate the availability of SWP and CRA supplies in conjunction with locally availability supplies and unconstrained regional demand to develop the imported water availability. Under normal (non- shortage) conditions, the City can purchase as much water as necessary from MWD to meet demands.

When the imported supply is under shortage conditions, the amount of shortage (allocation of shortage) specific to the City is determined in a process lead by MWD. In years where there is a shortage of imported water, MWD will implement its Water Shortage Allocation Plan (WSAP) and provide information to member agencies regarding allocations.

Groundwater: Burbank uses groundwater from the Court -adjudicated Upper Los Angeles River Area (ULARA), which is part of the SFB . The City will evaluate groundwater availability based on annual entitlement, including the IRC , storage of imported water, stored water credits, and Physical Solution Water. Burbank reports projected pumping to the ULARA Watermaster for inclusion in the Pumping and Spreading Plan developed each water year that provides the annual entitlement and planned pumping for each pumper in the SFB.

Recycled Water: The City’s non -potable recycled water supply is produced at the BWRP. This source of supply is reliable during single and multi-year droughts because it uses wastewater as its source which is derived from indoor water use , and the City produces sufficient wastewater to meet recycled water demands even in drought years.

Unconstrained Customer Demand
Unconstrained demand projections will be consistent with the methodology outlined in Section 4.7 of the Burbank 2025 UWMP. If needed, baseline demands will be adjusted to account for population changes in the service area, planned developments, and major land use changes.

Current Year Available Supply
Burbank will evaluate how the anticipated supplies for the coming year will be used. Water supply projections will be informed by Section 6 and Section 7 of Burbank’s 2025 UWMP.

Infrastructure Considerations
Burbank will evaluate the infrastructure capabilities and constraints that may affect the ability to deliver supplies to meet expected customer water use needs in the coming year. The AWSDA will also outline anticipated projects that may add capacity or constrain capabilities to meet demands.

8.3 Six Standard Water Shortage Levels

The WSCP requires water suppliers to adopt six water shortage stages, which correspond to progressively severe water shortage conditions (up to 10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, and greater than 50% shortage) as compared to the normal reliability condition. These w ater shortage stages have been standardized to allow for a consistent regional and statewide approach to conveying the relative severity of water supply shortage conditions.

Burbank adopted the Sustainable Water Use Ordinance (SWUO) in June 2008 and defines six stages covering the range from normal water supply to extreme shortages. Although shortage percentages are not linked to the ordinance, Stage VI bans all landscape watering with potable water. This could provide the 50% reduction required by the UWMP Act. Also, Burbank would defer main and fire hydrant flushing and reservoir drainage for maintenance. It is likely that a water supply emergency would be declared by the time the maximum reduction was called into effect.
16 16 Potential revisions to the SWUO were presented to the Burbank Board in March 2026; however, no action or vote was taken. The City is in the process of re-evaluating updates to its SWUO to clarify existing conservation measures and add in new requirements. However, for consistency with the currently adopted SWUO, this WSCP reflects the existing ordinance provisions and does not incorporate proposed revisions.  CWC §10632
(a)(3)(A) Six standard water shortage levels corresponding to progressive ranges of up to 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 percent shortages and greater than 50 percent shortage. Urban water suppliers shall define these shortage levels based on the suppliers’ water supply conditions, including percentage reductions in water supply, changes in groundwater levels, changes in surface elevation or level of subsidence, or other changes in hydrological or other local conditions indicative of the water supply available for use. Shortage levels shall also apply to catastrophic interruption of water supplies, including, but not limited to, a regional power outage, an earthquake, and other potential emergency events.
(B) An urban water supplier with an existing water shortage contingency plan that uses different water shortage levels may comply with the requirement in subparagraph (A) by developing and including a cross -reference relating its existing categories to the six standard water shortage levels.

8.4 Shortage Response Actions

Burbank’s SWUO provides a basis for achieving water demand reductions which may be required because of emergency or drought conditions. Stage I, consisting of 13 sustainable water use measures, is always in effect. The other five stages can be activated by the City Council in times of water shortage.

It is not expected that the City will implement supply augmentation actions in response to emergency or drought conditions, as shown in Table 8-2. The demand reduction measures contained in the SWUO to reduce potential shortages are shown in Table 8-3.
 CWC §10632
(a)(4) Shortage response actions that align with the defined shortage levels and include, at a minimum, all of the following:
(A) Locally appropriate supply augmentation actions.
(B) Locally appropriate demand reduction actions to adequately respond to shortages. (C) Locally appropriate operational changes.
(D) Additional, mandatory prohibitions against specific water use practices that are in addition to state- mandated prohibitions and appropriate to the local conditions. (E) For each action, an estimate of the extent to which the gap between supplies and demand will be reduced by implementation of the action.
 CWC §10632.2
An urban water supplier shall follow, where feasible and appropriate, the prescribed procedures and implement determined shortage response actions in its water shortage contingency plan, as identified in subdivision (a) of Section 10632, or reasonable alte rnative actions, provided that descriptions of the alternative actions are submitted with the annual water shortage assessment report pursuant to Section 10632.1. Nothing in this section prohibits an urban water supplier from taking actions not specified in its water shortage contingency plan, if needed, without having to formally amend its urban water management plan or water shortage contingency plan.

8.4.1 Catastrophic Supply Interruption
A water shortage can result from a catastrophe like an earthquake, a major power outage, or a water supply source problem, i.e. major breakdown or a water quality disruption. Catastrophes like these occur with little or no warning but typically a partial restoration of supply can be expected within days or at most a few weeks. MWD developed a catastrophic supply interruption plan which contains the Emergency Storage Requirements (ESR).

The ESR is based on the three major aqueducts (SWP, CRA, and Los Angeles) being out of service for six months after a major earthquake. Diamond Valley Lake and other Southern California reservoirs and groundwater basins provide emergency storage. After suc h a disaster, MWD’s emergency plan implements a mandatory 25% cutback in firm supplies to member agencies. Extraordinary conservation would be required to stay within the reduced supply in either of the above extreme cases.

Burbank has a formal disaster preparedness program. Every City employee is considered a disaster services worker. Training and drills are held regularly. When an emergency occurs, the Emergency Operations Center can be activated. This involves personnel from all City departments, and it operates according to the formal Standardized Emergency Management System procedures. There is a formal process for checking the water system for problems. Burbank could manage a short-term deficiency or emergency situations by mandating water conservation and also with the following actions:
• Increasing local groundwater pumping
• Purchasing additional water from the MWD to the extent available • Using emergency interconnections to adjacent water agencies If Burbank experiences a major power failure, but MWD is still producing water, Burbank can receive water to Zones 1 and 2. Portable diesel pumps are available to move water to higher zones if necessary. If all the City’s water supplies were interrupted, stored water in local reservoirs would last up to three days at average use. Immediate curtailment of non -essential uses (i.e., landscaping), could make supplies last much longer. Burbank’s SWUO provides procedures to reduce water use citywide and thereby mitigate the effect of a shortage of water resources. Through the use of incremental stages, as appropriate for prevailing conditions, the ordinance provides for increasing levels of water use restrictions and penalties in order to discourage wasteful water use practices and achieve reduced water consumption. In the case of a major local earthquake, a portion of stored water could be lost due to broken pipelines. Several of Burbank’s main water reservoirs are equipped with seismic sensors that will automatically valve off a portion of the water in storage, to prevent a total loss in case of uncontrolled main breaks.

Since Burbank has one groundwater treatment plant, as well as five MWD connections, there is some f
lexibility in emergency operations. Burbank is situated where several reaches of the MWD distribution systems converge. Burbank can receive water from various sources within the MWD system. If a problem developed with Burbank’s treatment plants, MWD could supply additional water from the five connections. If MWD supply had to be reduced, then treated groundwater could supplement the MWD supply. Blending MWD water with Valley Pumping Plant/Burbank Operable Unit (BOU) water (described in Section 6.2.2 of Burbank’s 2025 UWMP) is necessary to maintain production due to groundwater nitrate levels, but an increased BOU/MWD blending ratio could suffice.

There are presently two emergency interconnections with Glendale (one from Glendale to Burbank and one from Burbank to Glendale). These emergency interconnections have proven to be effective in providing a short-term supplemental supply , but the capacity is very low and Glendale relies on MWD water under the same conditions as Burbank. Burbank also has an interconnection with LADWP to ensure reliable, shared water supply during shortage or emergencies.

8.4.2 Seismic Risk Assessment and Mitigation Plan
Urban water suppliers are required to include within their WSCP a seismic risk assessment and mitigation plan to assess the vulnerability of each of the various facilities of a water system and mitigate those vulnerabilities. An urban water supply may comply with this requirement by submitting a copy of the most recently adopted multi-hazard mitigation plan under the federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (Public Law 106-390) if the multi-hazard mitigation plan addresses seismic risk.

Appendix F includes a copy of the City of Burbank Hazard Mitigation Plan (HMP). The HMP was prepared under the federal Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 and last updated in 2023. Seismic risk is considered and addressed throughout the HMP. The HMP identified seismic risks including earthquakes due to proximity to local faults. Historically, t he two most significant earthquakes to affect the City were the 1971 Sylmar earthquake and the 1994 Northridge earthquake, which caused substantial damage to streets, the sewer system, the water system, public buildings, and privately-owned residential and commercial structures .

Future earthquakes could cause significant damage. The City is working on several projects and actions to address potential hazards from earthquakes , including: improving emergency power systems at water processing facilities and hardening them again hazard event; installing backup power systems for key City- owned water pumps; improving waste and runoff water systems against hazardous events in conjunction with Burbank 2035 conservation priorities; and considering the use of flexible water pipes, particularly across known faults, to enhance seismic resiliency (Burbank, 2023). In the event of a water shortage due to an earthquake, Burbank would implement the demand reduction measures in Table 8-3.

The City has also prepared a Risk and Resiliency Assessment as required by America’s Water Infrastructure Act of 2018. Burbank’s primary water facilities were analyzed, and recommendations were made to address risks.

Several projects to address seismic risks are included in the City’s Adopted Fiscal Year 2025/26 and Proposed Fiscal Year 2026/27 Budget as part of the capital improvement program, including seismic retrofit of pipelines and Valley Pumping Plant forebay seismic assessment.

8.5 Communication Protocols

The shortage response actions described in this WSCP will be declared by resolution of the City Council.

Before adopting any such resolution, the City Council will hold a public hearing when required by CWC §351 or other applicable law. In addition to the formal noticing to the public the City will do at the varying Shortage Levels, the City will expand its public information campaign starting in Shortage Level II , which will also serve as a means of communicating Shortage Levels and required actions. This information campaign may include bill inserts, public service announcements, or other outreach efforts.  CWC §10632
(a) Every urban water supplier shall prepare and adopt a water shortage contingency plan as part of its urban water management plan consists of each of the following elements:
(5) Communication protocols and procedures to inform customers, the public, interested parties, and local, regional, and state governments, regarding, at a minimum, all of the following:
(A) Any current or predicted shortages as determined by the annual water supply and demand assessment described pursuant to Section 10632.1.
(B) Any shortage response actions triggered or anticipated to be triggered by the annual water supply and demand assessment described pursuant to Section 10632.1. (C) Any other relevant communications.

8.6 Compliance and Enforcement

Enforcement of the mandatory restrictions defined in the SWUO is through the issuance of an administrative citation. A notification process is used to alert citizens of reported water waste so corrections can be made. At least two notifications are made to allow citizens the opportunity to correct reported water waste incidents. 18 Continued violation of the SWUO after receiving notifications may result in the issuance of an Administrative Citation, per section 1 -1-108.1 of Title 1 of the Burbank Municipal Code. An Administrative Citation allows for fines of $100 for the first violation, $200 for the second violation, and $500 for every violation thereafter.

implemented will be at the discretion of the City Council and will be based on an assessment of the supply shortage (determined by the City’s annual supply and demand assessment, notification from MWD to member agencies, or other means as appropriate), customer response, and need for demand reductions.

It is noted that upon proclamation by the Governor of a state of emergency under the California Emergency Services Act (Chapter 7 (commencing with Section 8550) of Division 1 of Title 2 of the Government Code) based on drought conditions, the state will defer to implementation of locally adopted WSCPs to the extent practicable. The City will coordinate with regional and local water suppliers for which it provided water supply services for possible proclamation of a local emergency as necessary.

8.8 Financial Consequences of WSCP

It is difficult to precisely gauge the revenue and expenditure impacts of implementation of the WSCP. The WSCP provides for prohibitions on outdoor water use and requests for indoor use reductions, enforced by penalties for violation. Ultimate impacts will be based upon a mix of responses to these requirements and overall public cooperation in saving water in additional ways. Revenue will be reduced through lower water sales. However, the City will see this compensated to some degree by lower water purchase, pumping and treatment charges.

During the large 2014-16 drought, the City experienced the following revenue impacts:
• FY 2014/15 – Approximately -12.6% consumption reduction from FY 2013/14 levels, which resulted in approximately $2.75 million in reduced revenues • FY 2015/16 – Approximately -17.9% consumption reduction from FY 2014/15 levels, which resulted in a cumulative decrease in revenues of approximately $6.1 million from FY 2013/14 levels
No additional costs are assumed for WSCP enforcement nor compliance with Chapter 3.3, because it is assumed that enforcement will be completed using existing staff. Burbank does not anticipate requiring any mitigations actions to address revenue reduction. Most water savings are likely to accrue from reduced outdoor water use.

8.9 Monitoring and Reporting

Under normal conditions, the City monitors water sales and deliveries on a monthly basis. All of the City’s water connections are metered with each individual meter read monthly. The City prepares monthly sales and delivery reports which are reviewed and compared to reports and statistics from prior months and the same period as the prior year. Under shortage conditions, the City will determine water savings made from implementing the stages of the WSCP by reviewing and comparing production reports. Each customer or customer group can be evaluated for compliance with conservation requirements.

The WSCP is an adaptive management plan that can be revised and refined to ensure its shortage response actions are effective and produce desired results. Results of monitoring and reporting efforts will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of shortage ac tions. If certain procedure refinements or new actions are identified by City staff, or suggested by customers or other interested parties, the City Council has the authority to quickly incorporate and implement such refinements to the WSCP, as needed.

8.10 WSCP Refinement Procedures

This WSCP is an adaptive management plan that is designed to be responsive to the effectiveness of water shortage actions during a declared water shortage. As such, the WSCP is subject to adjustments and refinements as needed to ensure that actions are appropriate and effective. In the event that water shortage response actions are not producing the necessary demand reductions, Burbank will take adaptive measures necessary to achieve further demand reductions among the various customer categories. This may include adding new or modifying existing water use restrictions, creating targeted outreach programs, or implementing additional conservation incentive programs.

WSCP refinements are accomplished through a legislative process that involves staff analysis, presentations to decision-makers, and consideration and approval by the Burbank Board and City Council.

Specifically, Burbank staff briefs and proposes recommended water shortage response actions to the Burbank Board which then approves the action to be brought before the City Council. Once approved, the updates are incorporated into the Plan and implemented at the appropriate water shortage level.

8.11 Special Water Feature Distinction

For the purposes of this WSCP, special water features are defined and analyzed separately from pools and spas. Non-pool and non-spas may use or be able to use recycled water, whereas pools and spas must use potable water for health and safety considerations. Special water features include, but are not limited to, ornamental fountains, lakes, and ponds. According to the City’s SWUO, operating a water fountain or other decorative water feature that does not use re-circulated water is prohibited.  CWC §10632

Section 9 2025 Urban Water Management Plan
Demand Management Measures City of Burbank
PUBLIC DRAFT | May 2026

9 DEMAND MANAGEMENT MEASURES

Burbank has taken proactive steps to manage and reduce water demand over the past two decades. In 2005, the per capita daily usage was 184 GPCD. Since then, it has steadily declined, reaching 120 GPCD in 2025. During drought conditions, per capita water use can be even lower, dropping to 112 GPCD after the 2022 drought. Burbank will continue implementing DMMs to maintain low per capita water use and to prepare for potential restrictions during future droughts. For purposes of this section, these programs have been grouped into the following DMM categories in accordance with CWC §10631(e):
(i) Water waste prevention ordinances
(ii) Metering
(iii) Conservation pricing
(iv) Public education and outreach
(v) Programs to assess and manage distribution system real loss (vi) Water conservation program coordination and staffing support, and (vii) Other demand management measures
The following are descriptions of the conservation programs Burbank operates within each of these DMM categories.

9.1 Water Waste Prevention Ordinances
The City Council enacted the SWUO in 2008 which prohibits the wasteful use of potable water. The SWUO aligns with Burbank’s WSCP and provides a tiered response of water use restrictions, allowing the City a nimble mechanism by which to respond to water supply shortages. The SWUO includes prohibitions on landscape water overspray, prompt leak repair, and that restaurants only serve water by request. The  CWC §10631 (e)
Provide a description of the supplier’s water demand management measures. This description shall include all of the following:
(1) (A) For an urban retail water supplier, as defined in Section 10608.12, a narrative description that addresses the nature and extent of each water demand management measure implemented over the past five years. The narrative shall describe the water demand management measures that the supplier plans to implement to achieve its water use targets pursuant to Section 10608.20. (B) The narrative pursuant to this paragraph shall include descriptions of the following water demand management measures:
(i) Water waste prevention ordinances.
(ii) Metering.
(iii) Conservation pricing.
(iv) Public education and outreach.
(v) Programs to assess and manage distribution system real loss. (vi) Water conservation program coordination and staffing support. (vii) Other demand management measures that have a significant impact on water use as measured in gallons per capita per day, including innovative measures, if implemented.

provision of penalties for residents or businesses not acting in accordance with the requirements is built into the Ordinance. City Council enacted Stage III of the SWUO during the drought years 2015 and 2022 to limit landscape watering to two days per week in the summer and one day per week in the winter. 19

9.2 Metering

Burbank meters all of its customers, with separate meters for potable and non-potable water uses and bills its customers monthly. Burbank does not allow the installation of unmetered services and provides rental hydrant meters for temporary usage of water.

Burbank implemented an advanced m etering infrastructure (AMI) system between 2009 and 2011, improving water use efficiency by capturing customer consumption data and identifying wasteful usage and leak detection. However, aging communication modules have reduced system reliability, affecting about 17% of water meters in 2021. In the interim, Burbank has deployed an automatic meter reading system to restore functionality. Burbank is in the process of updating its AMI system to ensure that customers continue to receive efficient, reliable, and modern utility services. As part of this project, Burbank will replace approximately 26,800 communication modules on residential and commercial water meters with new modules to ensure Burbank continues to receive usage data via wireless technology directly. Substantial completion for the water AMI project is anticipated by June 2026.

9.3 Conservation Pricing
A tiered water rate, adopted in 2009 for single-family residential water users, increases the cost of potable water as usage increases. The first tier, up to 8 hundred cubic feet (HCF) per month, is generally enough for most families to use for indoor domestic purposes. This structure r eflects the fact that higher usage increases Burbank’s costs (e.g., added strain on infrastructure, pipe wear, etc.). While water conservation was not the primary purpose of the tiered rate structure, it may influence customer behavior.

19 The SWUO conservation measures, including watering restrictions, may be revised as part of potential SWUO updates under consideration by the Burbank Board. For consistency with the currently adopted SWUO, this WSCP reflects the existing ordinance provisions and does not incorporate potential revisions.  CWC §526 (a)
Notwithstanding any other provision of law, an urban water supplier that, on or after January 1, 2004, receives water from the federal Central Valley Project under a water service contract or subcontract … shall do both of the following:
(1) On or before January 1, 2013, install water meters on all service connections to residential and nonagricultural commercial buildings constructed prior to January 1, 1992, located within its service area. (2) On and after March 1, 2013, or according to the terms of the Central Valley Project water contract in operation, charge customers for water based on the actual volume of deliveries, as measured by a water meter.  CWC §527 (a)
(a) An urban water supplier that is not subject to Section 526 shall do both of the following:
(1) Install water meters on all municipal and industrial service connections located within its service area on or before January 1, 2025.

9.4.5 Community Demonstration Garden Grants
Burbank has previously supported the development of demonstration gardens for the community to enjoy and is currently working on a new project with the Burbank Unified School District for a site at Th eodore Roosevelt Elementary. Demonstration gardens are supported with interpretive signage to provide detailed information about each garden and practical landscape advice.

9.4.6 Home Water Reports Program
In April 2015, at the peak of the four- year statewide drought, Burbank began providing Home Water Reports to 15,000 residential single family water customers. The Home Water Reports contain information on bi-monthly water use, a comparison with similarly sized homes, and program promotional information and tips to reduce wat er use. The program also provides online access to the reports for customers, which includes hourly, daily and weekly water use so that customers can work to reduce their usage before receiving their next bill. In addition, the online component contains a water conservation tip library and a leak detection module so that customers will know within one to two days when a leak is occurring and can take immediate steps to fix it. Customers can also compare their water usage to similar households with similar occupancy.

This program is currently on hold but may be reactivated in the future.

9.4.7 LivingWise Program
Burbank has partnered with the Burbank Unified School District for at least 15 years to provide sixth-grade students in Burbank with water - and energy -efficiency education and a home retrofit kit. These kits include water- and energy-saving devices that teach stu dents the importance of conservation through a series of in-home and classroom activities. Students and their parents install these devices in their homes and are rewarded with immediate and lasting savings. More than 1,000 students participate annu ally, typically achieving savings of over 2.8 MG (8.6 AF) per year, in addition to 178,000 kWh.

9.5 Programs to Assess and Manage Distribution System Real Loss As discussed in Section 4.5, reducing distribution system losses is an important component of the State’s MCCWL regulations, and suppliers will be required to start meeting individual volumetric loss standards over a three -year period beginning January 2028. Burbank conducts annual distribution system audits using AWWA M36 Standard Water Audit methodology. The approach consists of a component analysis of ATTACHMENT 2

metered water sources, metered water demands, quantification of water losses (apparent and real), and calculation of non-revenue water as a percentage of total system flows.

As shown in Table 4-7, Burbank is currently meeting the 2028 water loss standard under MC CWL.

Burbank’s real losses in 20 24 were approximately 525 AF, or 3.7% of the water supplied to the system.

Burbank minimizes real losses by regularly and methodically replacing vulnerable water mains, which are identified and prioritized on Burbank’s 5-year capital improvement program. Additionally, Burbank has a proactive water leak detection program. Through a review of hourly consumption data provided by advanced meters, staff reports to customers about possible water leaks. As customers repair these leaks, water savings are tracked.

9.6 Water Conservation Program Coordination and Staffing Support Burbank centrally administers its conservation programs and coordinates with regional partners including MWD through its SoCal Water$mart program. Burbank staff are directly involved in implementing some of the conservation programs including the various public outreach programs and the leak detection program.

9.7 Other Demand Management Measures
There are a wide variety of water efficiency rebates, programs and services available to Burbank residents and businesses.

9.7.1 Home Improvement Program
•
The Home Improvement Program is a unique water and energy efficiency program available to all Burbank single-family and multi-family residential customers. The program offers a water and energy audit, as well as water and electric home upgrades, all provided at no cost to customers. Burbank's Home Improvement Program offerings exceed those of other agencies for both inside and outside the home. Burbank added leak detection and repair measures to this already excellent program in January 2026. The program no w includes the following water upgrades and services:
• Water audit and education regarding existing water use in and outside of the home • Indoor and outdoor leak detection
• Indoor and outdoor leak monitoring devices
• Installation of low-flow showerheads and faucet aerators • Toilet installation, leak test and repair
• Weather-based irrigation controllers and programming

9.8 California Water Efficiency Partnership
Compliance with California Urban Water Conservation Council Best Management Practices used to be required to receive financial assistance ( i.e., grants and loans) from the State of California for water projects. However, this was replaced in 2018 by the California Water Efficiency Partnership (CalWEP), an organization launched to address increasing pressures from climate change and State regulations. CalWEP provides resources and tools that enable utilities to address these challenges in innovative, collaborative ways. Burbank has been a member of CalWEP since 2021.

9.9 Implementation to Achieve Water Use Targets

As described in Section 5, all the DMMs described above contributed to Burbank ’s compliance with its 2020 Target. These programs will continue to support Burbank in complying with MCCWL requirements, including achieving its UWUO, and in advancing long-term conservation.  CWC §10631

(b) For completeness, raw water is included in Table 6 10 even though no water was spread in 2025 due to infrastructure upgrades and quagga mussel contamination in the untreated MWD water. While raw water supply is non-potable, it is recharged into the SFB and extracted to meet potable demands. Therefore, for purposes of this UWMP, this supply is categorized as potable. Additionally, Burbank does not have a direct contract with MWD for raw water spreading; supplies are discretionary to match demand. Therefore, no "Total Entitlement" is shown. (c) “Total Entitlement” volume includes Burbank’s IRC, stored credits, and Physical Solution Water. ULARA Watermaster has not yet calculated this volume; therefore, no “Total Entitlement” is shown.
(d) Total recycled water supply includes recycled water sold to Burbank’s customers, recycled water delivered outside of the service area (i.e. exchanged with LADWP). This includes 27 AF of supplemental potable water to meet peak recycled water demands. Burbank does not have a specified “Total Entitlement” for recycled water.
(e) Total entitlement values are not provided because certain supplies do not have a fixed annual entitlement and are demand-dependent. (f) Supply differs from demand in Table 4 1 due to metering inaccuracies and/or data errors.

NOTES:
(a) “Reasonably Available Volume” is provided by MWD, included as Appendix E and adjusted to reflect the potential additive demands assuming that the development potential associated with the DTSP and MDSP is achieved by 2035. Burbank does not have a direct contract with MWD for purchased water; supplies are discretionary to match demand. Therefore, no "Total Entitlement" is shown. (b) “Reasonably Available Volume” is provided by MWD, included as Appendix E. Raw water supply is non-potable. However, because it is recharged into the SFB and extracted to meet potable demands, this supply is categorized as a potable for purposes of this UWMP. Additionally, Burbank does not have a direct contract with MWD for raw water spreading; therefore, no "Total Entitlement" is shown. (c) “Reasonably Available Volume” is calculated as the groundwater recovery projection provided by MWD, included as Appendix E, minus the raw water purchased for spreading to avoid double-counting, consistent with the 2025 UWMP Guidebook. “Total Entitlement” volume includes Burbank’s IRC, stored credits, and Physical Solution Water, and varies by year. Therefore, no “Total Entitlement” is shown. (d) Burbank does not have a specified “Total Entitlement” for recycled water; therefore, no "Total Entitlement" is shown.

Reduced Reliance on the Delta Analysis
City of Burbank
2 DRAFT | May 2026
The purpose of this document is to demonstrate compliance with the Sacramento -San Joaquin Delta Reform Act of 2009. The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Reform Act of 2009 is described below, followed by an analysis of the City of Burbank ’s ( City or Burbank) reduced reliance in accordance with State protocols and expected outcomes for reduced reliance on the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta (Delta). 1 SACRAMENTO-SAN JOAQUIN DELTA REFORM ACT OF 2009
Under the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Reform Act of 2009, state and local public agencies proposing a “covered action” in the Sacramento -San Joaquin Delta (Delta) must submit a written certification of consistency to the Delta Stewardship Council as to whether the covered action is consistent with applicable Delta Plan policies. Covered actions include a multi-year water transfer, conveyance facility, or new diversion that involves transferring water through, exporting water from, or using water in the Delta.

Anyone may appeal a certification of consistency, and if the Delta Stewardship Council grants the appeal, the covered action may not be implemented until the agency proposing the covered action submits a revised certification of consistency, and either no appeal is filed, or the Delta Stewardship Council denies the subsequent appeal.

An urban water supplier that anticipates participating in or receiving water from a proposed covered action is required to provide information in their 2015 and subsequent Urban Water Management Plans (UWMPs) that can then be used in the covered action process to demonstrate consistency with Delta Plan Policy WR P1, Reduce Reliance on the Delta Through Improved Regional Water Self-Reliance (WR P1).

WR P1 details what is needed for a covered action to demonstrate consistency with reduced reliance on the Delta and improved regional self-reliance. WR P1 subsection (a) states that:
(a) Water shall not be exported from, transferred through, or used in the Delta if all of the following apply:
(1) One or more water suppliers that would receive water as a result of the export, transfer, or use have failed to adequately contribute to reduced reliance on the Delta and improved regional self - reliance consistent with all of the requirements listed in paragraph (1) of subsection (c); (2) That failure has significantly caused the need for the export, transfer, or use; and (3) The export, transfer, or use would have a significant adverse environmental impact in the Delta.

WR P1 subsection (c)(1) further defines what adequately contributing to reduced reliance on the Delta means in terms of (a)(1) above.
(c)(1) Water suppliers that have done all the following are contributing to reduced reliance on the Delta and improved regional self-reliance and are therefore consistent with this policy:
(A) Completed a current Urban or Agricultural Water Management Plan (Plan) which has been reviewed by the California Department of Water Resources for compliance with the applicable requirements of Water Code Division 6, Parts 2.55, 2.6, and 2.8; (B) Identified, evaluated, and commenced implementation, consistent with the implementation schedule set forth in the Plan, of all programs and projects included in the Plan that are locally cost effective and technically feasible which reduce reliance on the Delta; and (C) Included in the Plan, commencing in 2015, the expected outcome for measurable reduction in Delta reliance and improvement in regional self -reliance. The expected outcome for measurable reduction in Delta reliance and improvement in regional self-reliance shall be reported in the Plan ATTACHMENT 2

Reduced Reliance on the Delta Analysis

City of Burbank

as the reduction in the amount of water used, or in the percentage of water used, from the Delta watershed. For the purposes of reporting, water efficiency is considered a new source of water supply, consistent with Water Code section 1011(a).

The analysis and documentation provided below include all of the elements described in WR P1(c)(1) that need to be included in a water supplier’s UWMP to support a certification of consistency for a future covered action. Including this document as an appendix in the 2015 and subsequent UWMPs fulfills the requirements of WR P1 subsection (c)(1) Paragraph A.
2 REDUCED RELIANCE ANALYSIS
The City obtains a portion of its supplies through purchases from the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD). MWD supplies imported water sourced from the Delta via the State Water Project (SWP) and the Colorado River via the Colorado River Aqueduct (CRA). Additionally, MWD supports the Delta Conveyance Project (DCP), which is a covered action under the Delta Reform Act. Therefore, the City has prepared a Regional Self Reliance and Reduced Delta Reliance analysis conservatively assuming that all purchased imported water supplies are sourced from the Delta.

The methodology used to determine the City’s reduced Delta reliance and improved regional self-reliance is consistent with the approach detailed in Appendix C of Department of Water Resources’ (DWR) Urban Water Management Plan Guidebook 2025 (Guidebook Appendix C) issued in January 2026, including t he use of narrative justifications for the accounting of supplies and the documentation of specific data sources. Some of the key assumptions underlying the City’s demonstration of reduced reliance include:
• All data were obtained from the current 2025 UWMP or previously adopted UWMPs and represent average or normal water year conditions.
• All analyses were conducted at the service area level, focusing on the City’s demands and supplies. • No projects or programs that are described in the UWMPs as “Projects Under Development” were included in the accounting of supplies.

Tables 1 through 4 present the analysis of the City’s reduced Delta reliance using DWR’s spreadsheet tool and fulfill the requirements of WR P1 subsection (c)(1) Paragraph C. Descriptions of the various inputs of the analysis are provided below:
• Baseline (2010) and 2015 -2050 Conditions – The analysis uses a normal water year representation of 2010 as the baseline, which is consistent with the approach described in DWR’s Guidebook. Data for the 2010 baseline were taken from the 2010 UWMP. To evaluate conditions relative to the baseline, actual conditions for 2015, 2020, and 2025 of the corresponding UWMPs are presented. Normal year projections for 2030 through 2050 from the 2025 UWMP are then subsequently used.
• Service Area Water Demands with Water Use Efficiency Accounted For – These values reflect the City’s actual and projected water use.
• Non-Potable Water Demands – This item includes recycled water, untreated water demands, raw water losses, and/or water placed in storage, if applicable to the system. • Water Supplies Contributing to Regional Self-Reliance ATTACHMENT 2

Reduced Reliance on the Delta Analysis

City of Burbank
4 DRAFT | May 2026
- Water Use Efficiency – This amount is calculated by DWR’s spreadsheet tool based on the City’s baseline demand, actual demands, and expected future demands. The value shown is the reduction in per capita water demand from the baseline (2010) multiplied by the projected population for each.
- Water Recycling – This is wastewater that is treated to an acceptable level such that it can be reused for irrigation, cooling, and other non-potable applications. • Water Supplies from the Delta Watershed
- CVP/SWP Contract Supplies – the City derives a portion of its supplies from MWD , who is a SWP Contractor that obtains a portion of its water supply from the Delta via the SWP. 3 EXPECTED OUTCOMES FOR REDUCED RELIANCE ON THE DELTA
As stated in WR P1(c)(1)(C), the policy requires that, commencing in 2015, UWMPs include expected outcomes for measurable reduction in Delta reliance and improved regional self-reliance. WR P1 further states that those outcomes shall be reported in the UWMP as the reduction in the amount of water used, or in the percentage of water used, from the Delta.

The following provides a summary of the near -term (2030) and long-term (2050) expected outcomes for the City’s Delta reliance and regional self -reliance based on the assumptions described in the previous section and DWR’s analysis tool.

Expected Outcomes for Regional Self-Reliance
• Near-term (2030) – Normal water year regional self-reliance is expected to increase by 10% from the 2010 baseline (see Table 3).
• Long-term (2050) – Normal water year regional self-reliance is expected to decrease by 5.3% from the 2010 baseline (see Table 3).

Expected Outcomes for Percent of Water Supplies from the Delta Watershed • Near-term (2030) – Normal water year reliance on supplies from the Delta watershed is expected to decrease by 5.6% relative to the 2010 baseline (see Table 4). • Long-term (2050) – Normal water year reliance on supplies from the Delta watershed is expected to increase slightly by 1% relative to the 2010 baseline (see Table 4).

The results indicate that the City is measurably reducing reliance on the Delta and improving regional self- reliance, based on the percentage of the City’s water supplies from the Delta Watershed. Additionally, the regional analysis prepared by the MWD (2025 UWMP Appendix 10) demonstrates that, at a regional scale, reliance on Delta supplies is projected to decrease over the planning horizon as a result of continued investments in supply diversification, conservation, and storage. Accordingly, while reductions are limited at the local level due to system constraints, the City contributes to and benefits from broader regional efforts to reduce Delta reliance

Subject: Notice of Preparation of Burbank's 2025 Urban Water Management Plan Dear Mr. Obegolu,
Every five years, Burbank Water and Power (BWP) is required to develop a State-mandated Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). State law provides a framework for how water suppliers such as BWP are to carry out their long-term resource planning responsibilities through the UWMP. Specifically, suppliers are to assess supplies and demand, consider and analyze actions to be taken during droughts, and commit to implementing demand management strategies to encourage efficient water use.

This letter serves as notice that an updated UWMP and WSCP is currently under development.

Pursuant to California Water Code Section 10621(b), the required 60-day notice was sent to you on March 23, 2026. This letter is to inform you that the City Council public hearing, at which the updated UWMP and WSCP will be considered for adoption, is scheduled for June 16, 2026.

The Draft UWMP, which includes the WSCP, is available on BWP's website for review and public comment prior to the public hearing at: www.burbankwaterandpower .com/UWMP.

If you would like more information or have any questions, please contact Asif Sheikh, Manager Water Engineering & Planning, at 818-238-3500 or ASheikh@burbankca .gov.

Subject: Notice of Preparation of Burbank's 2025 Urban Water Management Plan Every five years , Burbank Water and Power (BWP) is required to develop a State-mandated Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP). State law provides a framework for how water suppliers such as BWP are to carry out their long-term resource planning responsibilities through the UWMP. Specifically, suppliers are to assess supplies and demand, consider and analyze actions to be taken during droughts, and commit to implementing demand management strategies to encourage efficient water use.

This letter serves as notice that an updated UWMP and WSCP is currently under development.

Pursuant to California Water Code Section 10621 (b), the required 60-day notice was sent to you on March 23, 2026. This letter is to inform you that the City Council public hearing, at which the updated UWMP and WSCP will be considered for adoption, is scheduled for June 16, 2026.

The Draft UWMP, which includes the WSCP, is available on BWP's website for review and public comment prior to the public hearing at: www.burbankwaterandpower .com/UWMP .

8 1.1 DISASTER MITIGATION ACT OF 2000
The DMA 2000 was passed by Congress to emphasize the need for mitigation planning to reduce vulnerability to natural and human -caused hazards. The DMA 2000 amended the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (42 United States Code 5121 et seq.) by repealing the Act’s previous Mitigation Planning section (409) and replacing it with a new Mitigation Planning section (322).

To implement the DMA 2000 planning requirements, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) published an Interim Final Rule in the Federal Register on February 26, 2002 (FEMA 2002a). This rule (44 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR] Part 201) established the mitigation planning requirements for states, tribes, and local communities. The planning requirements are described in detail in Section 2 and identified in their appropriate sections throughout the Burbank Hazard Mitigation Plan (the Plan).

1.2 ADOPTION BY THE LOCAL GOVERNING BODY AND SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION The requirements for the adoption of an LHMP by the local governing body, as stipulated in the DMA 2000 and its implementing regulations, are described below.

DMA 2000 REQUIREMENTS: PREREQUISITES
Adoption by the Local Governing Body
Requirement §201.6(c)(5): [The local hazard mitigation plan shall include] documentation that the plan has been formally adopted by the governing body of the jurisdiction requesting approval of the plan (e.g., C ity Council, County Commissioner, Tribal Council).

Element
● Has the local governing body adopted the plan?
● Is supporting documentation, such as a resolution, included? Source: FEMA, March 2004.

The City of Burbank (the City) LHMP meets the requirements of Section 409 of the Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act and Section 322 of the DMA 2000. This LHMP has been prepared by the City’s Hazard Mitigation Planning Team (Planning Team), made available for review to the California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) prior to being presented for review and adoption by the City Council via resolution. This resolution is available below in Appendix B.

9 Section 2 COMMUNITY DESCRIPTION
This section describes the history, location, and environment of the City as well as its government, demographic information, and current land use and development trends.

Q&A | ELEMENT B3: JURISDICTION SUMMARY
Q: Is there a description of each identified hazard’s impact on the community as well as an overall summary of the community’s vulnerability for each jurisdiction? (Requirement §201.6(b)(3)) A: See 2.1 HISTORY AND LOCATION, and 2.2 ENVIRONMENT below.

2.1 HISTORY AND LOCATION
The City of Burbank is located in the eastern part of the San Fernando Valley, in Los Angeles County, approximately 12 miles from downtown Los Angeles. It is bordered by the cities of Glendale to the east, North Hollywood and Toluca Lake on the west, and Griffith Park to the sout h. The Verdugo Hills (AKA, Verdugo Mountains or simply “the Verdugos”) form the northern border. The location of Burbank is illustrated in the Figure 1 below.

Incorporated in 1911, the City occupies an area of about 17.4 square miles, of which about one -fourth is in the Verdugo Hills. The latest U.S. Census population estimate for Burbank (2019) is 102,511, an increase of about 2.0% since the 2010 census. The official City website notes that Burbank’s history is built on people, pride, and progress. These ingredients turned a sleepy, rural town into the thriving community it is today.

Originally part of two Spanish and Mexican -era colonial land grants, Rancho San Rafael and Rancho Providencia, the area that would become Burbank was settled across the 1870s and 1880s. Important steps Figure 1 Burbank Location Data

10 in the development of Burbank occurred in 1874 with the arrival of the Southern Pacific Railroad and in 1887 with establishment of a water system. Even with these arrivals, the town remained small at about 500 residents by the time it was incorporated. In 1920, the town had grown to 3,000 people and expanded rapidly through the 1950s as shown by the U.S. Census data in Table 1.

* U.S. Census Data. For reporting purposes, the Burbank Water and Power Department uses California Department of Finance population data, which may differ from Census data.

While growth from the 1920s to the 1950s was fueled by rapid expansion of the motion picture an d aviation industries, the City’s population declined in the 1960s and 1970s. Population and economic growth rebounded in the 1980s and since then Burbank has had a thriving economy with strong redevelopment and revitalization of the City’s economic base. Today, it is a prominent media and entertainment hub, which prides itself on a high quality of life, combining 21 st century technology and innovation while retaining a small -town ambiance.

Burbank is indeed, a city of “people, pride, and progress.” The City has two distinct geographic areas. Much of the land is in the San Fernando Valley, with generally flat topography and elevations around 500-feet. The northeastern part of Burbank extends from an alluvial fan into the foothills of the Verdugo Hills with elevations reaching about 2,600-feet.

Q&A | ELEMENT B: HAZARD IDENTIFICATION AND RISK ASSESSMENT | B1a Q: Does the plan include a general description of all natural hazards that can affect each jurisdiction? (Requirement §201.6(c)(2)(i))
A: See 2.2 ENVIRONMENT below.

2.2 ENVIRONMENT
Some natural hazards, such as earthquakes, flooding, and drought, pose a hazard to the entire city of Burbank, with the level of risk varying with location soil type and construction . Other hazards, such as high winds, landslides, mudslides and wildland/urban interface fires pose a much greater risk in the foothill areas. Slopes Table 1 Burbank Population Data*

11 range from less than three percent in the valley floor areas, from three percent to ten percent in the alluvial fan areas, and to greater than ten percent in the hill areas.

The major waterways in the City include the Los Angeles River Flood Control Channel along Highway 5, the Burbank Western Flood Control Channel, and the Lockheed Drain Channel. The 2008 FEMA Flood Insurance Study for Los Angeles County identifies the Los Angeles River as the primary flood hazard however later FIRM studies for the confluence of the Burbank Western and Lockheed Drain Channels as having a greater risk.

The area’s climate is subtropical with average highs ranging from 67 o in January to 90 o in August. Average lows range from 41o in December to 62 o in July and August. Record high and low temperatures are 113 o and 22 o, respectively. Mean annual rainfall is about 16.5 inches, with more than 90% of the rainfall occurring from November to April, with about two-thirds of annual rainfall between January and March. The respective record low and high annual precipitation amounts are 0.57 inches (1939) and 39.77 inches (1983). The mean average snowfall is about 0.1 inch, although measurable snow has occurred only six times from 1938 to 2006. The record snowfall of 4.7 inches which occurred in January 1948 accounts for much of the mean average snowfall.

Other notable snowfalls were 0.5 inches in March 1950 and 0.10 inches on four occasions. The last measurable snowfall occurred in January 1966. The historical climate data above are for the Burbank Valley Pumping Plant meteorological station with a period of record from 1938 through 2006 as compiled by the Western Regional Climate Center.

2.3 GOVERNMENT
Burbank is a charter city with a City Council – City Manager form of government. The City Council serves as the elected legislative and policy-making body of the City, enacting all laws and directing all actions necessary to provide for the general welfare of the community through appropriate programs, services, and activities.

The City Council is the body which formally adopts the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan.

The City government has 14 departments, all of which have roles in hazard mitigation planning, community outreach efforts, and/or the implementation of mitigation action items: Burbank Water and Power, City Attorney, City Clerk, City Manager, City Treasurer, Community Development, Financial Services, Fire, Information Technology, Management Services, Parks and Recreation, Police, Public Library, and Public Works.

Local Hazard Mitigation Plan | January 2023

12 Departments with major roles related to hazard mitigation planning and implementation are briefly summarized below:
✓ The Community Development Department functions include building plan review and inspection, building code development, land use planning/zoning, updating the General Plan, and code enforcement.
✓ The Fire Department includes the Emergency Management Division , which has responsibility for developing, implementing and maintaining a comprehensive program to ensure that the City and the community are ready for various threats including natural disasters and human -caused incidents. Important elements of the program include disaster preparedness, hazard mitigation, response procedures, and recovery operations. ✓ The Public Works Department functions include maintaining the wastewater collection and treatment facilities, city buildings, and streets.
✓ The Burbank Power & Water Department maintains the infrastructure providing electric power and water for Burbank.
✓ The City Manager’s Office has a major role in setting and overseeing city policies and practices, including those related to mitigation.

2.4 DEMOGRAPHICS
Selected demographic data for Burbank from the U.S. Census Bureau are shown in Table 2. Age and ethnicity categories intentionally include overlapping subsets of the ACS Census Bureau data as compiled for 2019 for planning purposes. For emergency planning purposes, children, elderly adults, the disabled, p eople whose primary language is not English, and low-income residents are considered special needs population groups.

The number of people in these groups may also be a factor in mitigation planning, including community participation efforts, and in developing and prioritizing mitigation goals, objectives, and action items. Burbank has a substantial population of children and elderly adults. As shown below, about 18% of the population are children less than 18 -years, while about 15% are adults over 65 -years. Roughly 6% of the population is classified as having a disability. Almost 11% of the population is below the poverty level.

Just over 41% of Burbank’s residents speak a language other than English at home, with some 13% speaking Spanish and the remaining population speaking a wide variety of Indo -European, Asian, Pacific Island, and other languages. About 19% of Burbank’s residents speak English less than very well. Approximately, 30% of the population was born outside of the United States.

14 Burbank is a virtually fully built-out city. The only significant areas of vacant land remaining are in the Verdugo Hills, which are preserved as open space. This open space, along with the City’s parks, comprises nearly 25% of Burbank’s land area. By use, the largest fraction of Burbank’s land area, about 30%, is occupied by single- family homes. The remaining land area is devoted to a mix of types and intensit ies of development and transportation infrastructure , including multiple -family residential, commercial, light and heavy industrial, railroads, freeways, streets, and the Hollywood-Burbank Airport.

As Burbank is a fully developed city, there is almost no land left for new development aside from a few individual residential parcels in the hillside area. Out of the approximately 25,000 parcels in Burbank, only about 420 are undeveloped. Most of these undeveloped parcels are owned by government agencies and used for public utilities or preserved as open space.

15 Nearly all development that occurs in Burbank is infill or redevelopment projects on previously developed lots.

There has been some development in Burbank since 2005, but the overall pattern and intensi ty of development has not changed. The greatest potential for additional development exists with the long -term master plans for the three major studio facilities in Burbank. Since 2005, the main notable development related to these master plans was the con struction of a 14 -story, 485,000 square foot office building on the former NBC lot.

During the housing boom that lasted through 2007, Burbank experienced substantial redevelopment in multifamily and commercial projects. Dozens of new units in multistory apartments and condominium projects were added to the city, replacing single -family homes or smaller apartment buildings. Notable commercial projects during this time included two mixed -use projects in the downtown area that included commercial space and condominiums: The Collection and Village Walk and a new Marriott Residence Inn hotel. Starting in 2008, development slowed substantially as it did throughout the country. Applications for new multiple family residential projects dropped dramatically. Most residential projects seen today are small projects with one or two new units being added to an existing single-family home or duplex. Commercial project applications have also been relatively low compared to prior years. The notable ex ceptions to this trend are two new office buildings completed in 2009 (one of which is on the NBC lot as noted above) and a major apartment complex with 276 units completed in 2010. All three of these projects received approvals prior to the economic decline.

Because Burbank is extensively built out, it is not expected that the overall distribution of land uses will change significantly in the future. Rather, there will be further intensification through redevelopment of existing development in areas other than the single-family residential neighborhoods.

However, the rate of future redevelopment will continue to be heavily dependent upon the economy. The state of the housing market and similarly the commercial real estate market have growth and contractio n phases which can be difficult to forecast. As a result of Burbank’s location amid the Los Angeles metropolitan area and the strong presence of the media industry, it does not face the same challenges as some outlying suburbs face in retaining its land va lue and attraction for redevelopment. There is little concern that Burbank will not fully recover from any downturns in the commercial or residential markets and that demand will remain constant even though the timing or extent is uncertain.

16 Section 3 PLANNING GUIDANCE
Q&A | ELEMENT A: PLANNING PROCESS | A2
Q: Does the plan document an opportunity for neighboring communities, local, and regional agencies involved in hazard mitigation activities, agencies that have the authority to regulate development, as well as other interested parties to be involved in the planning process? A: See 3.1 INTRODUCTION details below.

Q&A | ELEMENT A: PLANNING PROCESS | A3a
Q: Does the plan document how the public was involved in the planning process during the drafting stage? (Requirement §201.6(b)(1))
A: See 3.1 INTRODUCTION details below.

3.1 INTRODUCTION
Throughout the planning project, City of Burbank Departments were considered the primary stakeholders as therein rested responsibility for , and implementation of, the LHMP on behalf of the people working, visiting, and residing within the jurisdiction. Along this line of responsibility, other government agencies that are “Authorities Having Jurisdiction” within the City of Burbank were considered secondary stakeholders.

The secondary stakeholders included but were not limited to the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works (LACoDPW) Flood Control District with jurisdiction over floodplains and watersheds, the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health (LACoDPH) with jurisdiction over public and environmental health, the Burbank Glendale Pasadena Airport Authority, which is a Joint Powers Authority with jurisdiction over the commercial Hollywood-Burbank Airport and attendant f acilities and the Burbank Unified School District with jurisdiction over K-12 schools.

Tertiary stakeholders included neighboring governments (the cities of Glendale and Los Angeles), Non- Governmental Organizations (NGOs), non -profits, major media studios, and the public at large. Members of the public, and particularly vulnerable demographics, including those with a disability, access and functional needs (AFN), and disenfranchised communities in general gained additional representation through participating NGOs and non-profit organizations.

In the planning process, a concerted effort was made to gather information from the general public, external agencies, joint powers authority jurisdictions, utility providers, and special districts. In addition, the Planning Team solicited information from agencies and people with specific knowledge of hazards and past historical events, as well as building codes and facilities maintenance planning. The various hazard mitigation strategies contained in this plan were developed through the planning process and involved the City of Burbank staff, related external agencies, and the general public at large.

The City Planning Team , which included the primary and secondary stakeholders , contributed to the initial development of the First Draft of the mitigation plan via in -person and virtual meetings as well as circulated ATTACHMENT 2
A2-182
992
Burbank LHMP

Local Hazard Mitigation Plan | January 2023

17 copies of the draft plan in progress. Once a foundational First Draft was complete, the tertiary stakeholders (including the general public) were invited to contribute to the mitigation plan in the Second Draft phase.

The First Draft Plan was posted on the Ready Burbank website on 06/29/2020 and public notice was provided through social media, publicly posted memo as well as emails directly to identified t ertiary stakeholder agencies and neighboring city jurisdictions . The comments and feedback gathered during this process was reviewed by the City Planning Team and incorporated into the Final Draft Plan. This Final Draft Plan was posted on the Ready Burbank website on 10/04/2021 and public notice was provided through social media, publicly posted memo as well as emails dir ectly to identified tertiary stakeholder agencies and neighboring city jurisdictions for final review and comment prior to submission to Cal OES and FEMA.

The Final Draft Plan was submitted to Cal OES and FEMA along with a request for a determination of “approval pending adoption”. Upon receiving “approval pending adoption” from FEMA, the City of Burbank Emergency Management Coordinator will prepare a staff report to the City of Burbank City Council requesting adoption of the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. Following adoption by the City Council, proof of adoption w ill be forwarded to FEMA. The FEMA Letter of Approval (see Appendix C) was included in the Final Plan. The planning process noted above is outlined in section 3.5 Planning Team Involvement.

Q&A | ELEMENT A: PLANNING PROCESS | A1b
Q: Does the plan list the jurisdiction(s) participating in the plan that are seeking approval? (Requirement §201.6(c)(1))
A: See 3.2 LEGAL FOUNDATION below.

3.2 LEGAL FOUNDATION
The Hazard Mitigation Plan (Mitigation Plan) was prepared in response to the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000). DMA 2000 (also known as Public Law 106 -390) has required State and local governments (including special districts and joint powers authorities) to prepare mitigation plans to document their mitigation planning process, and identify hazards, potential losses, mitigation needs, goals, and strategies since 2005.

This type of planning supplements the City’s comprehensive land use planning and emergency management planning programs. This document is a federally mandated update to the City of Burbank 2011 Local Hazard Mitigation Plan and ensures eligibility for Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) funding.

DMA 2000 was designed to establish a national program for pre-disaster mitigation, streamline disaster relief at the Federal and State levels, and control Federal disaster assistance costs. Congress believed these requirements would produce the following benefits:
✓ Reduce loss of life and destruction of property, human suffering, economic disruptions, and disaster costs.
✓ Prioritize hazard mitigation at the local level with an increased emphasis upon planning and public involvement, assessing risks, implementing loss reduction measures, and ensuring critical facilities and services survive a disaster.
✓ Promote educational and economic incentives to form community-based partnerships and leverage non-federal resources to commit to and implement long-term hazard mitigation activities.

A: See 3.3 PRIMARY and SECONDARY STAKEHOLDERS and 3.4 TERTIARY STAKEHOLDER INVOLVEMENT below.

3.3 PRIMARY and SECONDARY STAKEHOLDERS
A Hazard Mitigation Planning Team (Planning Team), consisting of the City of Burbank staff, was initially guided by the primary stakeholders.

As required by DMA 2000, the Planning Team expressly involved primary, secondary and tertiary stakeholders, including the general public. Primary and secondary stakeholders were invited to contribute to the mitigation plan during the plan during the initial First Draft writing phase via in-person and virtual meetings as well as circulated copies of the draft plan in progress . Once a foundational First Draft was complete, the tertiary stakeholders (including the general public) were invited to contribute to the mitigation plan in the Second Draft phase.

Q: Does the plan document an opportunity for neighboring communities, local, and regional agencies involved in hazard mitigation activities, agencies that have the authority to regulate development, as well as other interested parties to be involved in the planning process? A: See 3.5 PLANNING TEAM INVOLVEMENT below.

3.5 PLANNING TEAM INVOLVEMENT
The Planning Team consisted of diverse representatives and included individuals from City Departments with a role in the hazard mitigation processes. The Planning Team served as liaisons among all stakeholders throughout the planning process. During the pl anning process the Planning Team was faced with unique challenges related to COVID-19, resulting in a mix of in-person and virtual meetings. As noted previously, the general public and external agencies served as tertiary stakeholders in the planning proce ss. The Planning Team was responsible for the following tasks:

✓ Confirming planning goals
✓ Prepare timeline for plan update
✓ Ensure plan meets DMA 2000 requirements
✓ Organize and solicit involvement of public and external agencies ✓ Analyze existing data and reports
✓ Update hazard information
✓ Update status of Mitigation Action Items
✓ Develop new Mitigation Action Items
✓ Participate in Planning Team meetings and City Council public meetings ✓ Provide existing resources including maps and data

20 3.6 PLANNING APPROACH
The four-step planning approach outlined in the FEMA publication, Developing the Mitigation Plan: Identifying Mitigation Actions and Implementing Strategies (FEMA 386-3) was used to develop this plan:

✓ Develop mitigation goals and objectives - The risk assessment (hazard character, inventory, and findings), along with municipal policy documents, was utilized to develop mitigation goals and objectives.
✓ Identify and prioritize mitigation actions - Based on the risk assessment, goals and objectives, existing literature/resources, and input from participating entities, mitigation activities were identified for each hazard.
✓ Prepare implementation strategy - Generally, high-priority activity is advised for implementation first; however, based on organizational requirements and goals, project costs, and available funding, some medium or low priority activities might be implemented before some high priority items. ✓ Document mitigation planning process - The mitigation planning process is documented throughout this plan document.

Q&A | ELEMENT E: PLAN ADOPTION | E1
Q: Does the plan include documentation that the plan has been formally adopted by the governing body of the jurisdiction requesting approval? (Requirement §201.6(c)(5)) A: See 3.7 PLAN ADOPTION PROCESS below.

3.7 PLAN ADOPTION PROCESS
Adoption of the plan by the local governing body demonstrates the City of Burbank’s commitment to meeting mitigation goals and objectives. Governing body approval legitimizes the plan and authorizes accountable agencies to execute their responsibilities. The City Council must adopt the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan before it can be approve d by FEMA. The Final Draft Plan was submitted to Cal OES and FEMA for review and approval. FEMA issued an Approval Pending Adoption on 01/26/2023 requiring the adoption of the Plan by the City of Burbank City Council. The adoption resolution was submitted to FEMA along with a request for a FEMA Letter of Approval.

In preparation for the public meeting with the City Council, the Emergency Management Coordinator prepared a Staff Report to the City Manager . The City Council heard the item on _ DD/MM/YYYY_. The City Council voted to adopt the Local Hazard Mitigation Plan. The Resolution of adoption by the City Council is in Appendix B.

Q&A | ELEMENT C. MITIGATION STRATEGY | C1a
Q: Does the plan document each jurisdiction’s existing authorities, policies, programs, and resources? (Requirement §201.6(c)(3))
A: See 3.9 CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT - RESOURCES below.

3.9 CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT – RESOURCES
The City of Burbank incorporate s mitigation planning as an integral component of daily operations. This will be accomplished by the Planning Team working with their respective departments to integrate mitigation strategies into the planning documents and the City of Burbank operational g uidelines. In addition to the Capability Assessment, the Planning Team strives to identify additional policies, programs, practices, and procedures that could be created or modified to address mitigation activities. Details of existing resources with mitigation activity capability are listed in Tables 3 through 7 below.

Q&A | ELEMENT C. MITIGATION STRATEGY | C1b
Q: Does the plan document each jurisdiction’s ability to expand on and improve these existing policies and programs? (Requirement §201.6(c)(3))
A: See 3.9.1 CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT - RESOURCES TYPES below.

3.9.1 CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT – RESOURCE TYPES
The capabilities noted in this LHMP as resources available to the City to use towards reducing long-term vulnerability via mitigation actions fall into four categories : planning and regulatory, financial , administrative and technical, and education and outreach. In this section how the resources noted in Tables 3 through 7 fit into this schema are detailed with specific examples. Tables 3 through 7 organize capabilities hierarchically with respect to the following jurisdictions: City, County, State-Regional-Federal, and Private. Additionally, how the selected cases demonstrate forward thinking to expand and improve mitigation is noted.

Planning and regulatory resources accessible for application toward reducing vulnerability with mitigation planning are considerable. These resources are available at each jurisdictional level and include capabilities related to ordinance, policy, laws, statutes, plans, and programs for managing growth and development. They include the Burbank Capital Improvement Program (CIP), the LAC General Plan (LACGP), the California State Hazard Mitigation Plan (CSHMP), the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (AMTRAK) and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Founded on the 2019 California Building Code and guided by City Council mandated amendments to Title 9 of the Burbank Municipal Code (BMC), t he Burbank CIP is in an ongoing state of revision to improve safety and mitigate hazards across the jurisdiction ’s physical infrastructure.

22 Financial resources for application toward reducing vulnerability via mitigation planning come in a wide but not always readily accessible variety. These resources are available at each governmental jurisdiction levels and include capabilities related to funding of mitigation actions. They include the Electric Utility Fund, the Los Angeles County Office of Emergency Management (LAC -OES), the California Department of Transportation (CalTrans), and the US Bureau of Reclamation (USBR). Burbank seeks to diversify and expand access to financial resources, ranging from the frequently used to the obscure, that can be employed to fund hazard mitigation actions. In this vein, Burbank Water & Power (BWP) has initiated an expansion of its Drought Contingency Plan that promises to open access to ongoing mitigation funding. This USBR grant funded update will make the City eligible to win future funding that promotes improved hazard mitigation with better water resource management.

Administrative and technical resources are broadly accessible to apply toward reducing vulnerability with mitigation planning both within and across jurisdictions . T hese resources include capabilities related to coordination of staff, their skills, and departmental tools available to them . Examples of these resources include the Burbank Fire Department (BFD), the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LAC -FCD), the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (CalOES), and Southern California Edison (SCE). Do to the nature of the metropolitan area in which it is located, t here is an extensive pool of ex perience, skill sets, and tools available both internally and externally for the City to apply to ward hazard mitigation. Additionally, where any of these aspects are lacking due to routine positional vacancies mechanisms to hire, promote, or backfill administrative and technical resources from either the eligible workforce permanently or larger jurisdictional entities temporarily are available. Within the BFD’s Emergency Management Division an Emergency Management intern program was created to act as a project management tool to research, organize, and codify material for the current LHMP revision. Future expansion of this program by the Emergency Management Coordinator will support personnel skills development, departmental training through Cal OES’s California Specialized Training Institute, and a more actively managed mitigation plan maintenance process.

Education and Outreach resources are a readily accessible but practically constrained capability to apply toward reducing hazard vulnerability and enhancing mitigation plans . The constraint found here is that capability efficacy is based on the degree to which the public participates in a given educational and/or outreach resource. Available at all jurisdictional levels, these resources are mutually supporting and actively promote participation in both their own and affiliated activities as they seek to spread hazard mitigation and disaster preparedness educational material throughout the community . Examples of these resources are Ready Burbank’s Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) program, CalOES’s California Specialized Training Institute (CSTI), FEMA’s Independent Study program , and t he Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES). Each of these resources has a hazard mitigation component as is demonstrated by Burbank CERT training which advocates for the national Firewise -USA wildfire mitigation program. Ongoing efforts by the BFD and Ready Burbank aims to bolster CERT membership and registration of a larger pool of qualified disaster service worker volunteers. Coordinated with these effort is expanded membership of the Burbank Fire Corps thus promoting proactive whole community fire safety.

The CIP is a set of planned construction projects at City owned buildings, facilities, and infrastructure.

Examples include new or retrofit City facilities, technology disaster resilience, and communications equipment. The current CIP is for the 2020/2021 fiscal year and is updated annually. Mitigation actions that involve construction or retrofits to City buildings, facilities, and infrastructure may be implemented through inclusion in the Capital Improvement Program.
