FROM: City Clerk DISTRICT(S): CITYWIDE
SUBJECT: Update on the City of Glendora Water Infrastructure Assessment and Rate Study
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council:
1. Adopt the Water Master Plan; and
2. Provide direction for the consideration of water rates.
STRATEGIC FOCUS AREAS
Goal 5: Improve and Maintain the City’s Infrastructure and Facilities (IMCIF)
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Over the past year, the City has been conducting a water utility infrastructure assessment to identify and prioritize the maintenance and repairs of water utility pipelines and facilities. Based on the information gathered, it has been determined that the City’s water system needs nearly $350 million in repairs and replacements. In order to fund these projects and ongoing operations, a rate study was completed to establish a fair and equitable distribution of costs to the consumers. The findings of these studies are outlined in the report for the City Council and Water Commission to consider and provide staff with direction to move forward.
LEGISLATIVE HISTORY / PREVIOUS ACTIONS
Resolution CC2016-32
On September 12, 2016, the City mailed customer notices regarding Resolution No. CC2016-32, which included water rate adjustments to occur between 2017 and 2021.
Proposition 218
Proposition 218, (California Constitution Article XIII D), was enacted in 1996 for the purpose of setting rates and fees which are reasonable and proportional to the cost of providing service. The requirements for fairness are:
a. Revenues derived from fees and charges (such as water and sewer rates) shall not exceed the funds required to provide the property related service. b. Fees and charges shall not be used for any purpose other than that for which they were imposed. c. Fees and charges shall not exceed the proportional cost of service attributable to the parcel upon which it is imposed.
d. Service for which a fee is being imposed must actually be used by, or immediately available to the owner of the property in question.
e. A written notice of the proposed fees and charges shall be mailed to the record owner of each parcel at least 45 days prior to the public hearing, when the agency considers all written protests the charge.
A public agency cannot adopt increases in fees and charges above those included in Item #1. Page 1

Proposition 218 notice
California Assembly Bill 1668
Assembly Bill 1668 (AB1668) requires reduction in indoor residential water use:
Until January 1, 2025: 55 gallons per capita per day
Beginning January 1, 2025: 52.5 gallons per capita per day Beginning January 1, 2030: 50.0 gallons per capita per day
DISCUSSION
The City of Glendora (City) owns and operates a potable water system serving an area of approximately 11 square miles and provides water service to a population of about 45,550. The primary source of supply is local groundwater from the Upper San Gabriel Canyon Sub-basin and the Glendora Sub-basin of the Main San Gabriel Basin (Main Basin). The supply is supplemented with imported water from Three Valleys Municipal Water District. The City’s existing potable water system consists of the following:
Seventeen (17) hydraulic pressure zones (12 open, 3 on hydropneumatic systems, and two closed)
Approximately 210 miles of pipeline, 1-inch to 30-inch Eight (8) Active Groundwater Wells
29 Storage Reservoirs
20 Pump Stations (45 pumps)
Three (3) Hydropneumatic Systems
Three (3) Pressure Regulating Stations
1,760 Fire Hydrants
13,500 customer meters
Water Master Plan
In April 2023, the Water Master Plan was finalized by AKM Consulting Engineers. The document is a comprehensive planning guide for improving and upgrading the City’s existing water system. In doing so, it identifies and prioritizes $350 Million in Capital Improvement Projects.
Vertical Facility Assessments were conducted as part of the master plan effort to evaluate the condition and to develop recommendations for each well, pump station, and storage reservoir. As-built plans, maintenance records, pump curves and efficiency tests, reservoir dive reports, and other available historical information were reviewed as part of the assessments. City staff members were interviewed by and accompanied AKM staff on tours of each facility. The Vertical Facility Assessments resulted in the recommendation of improvement projects with a total estimated cost of $158M.
The Water Master Plan effort also included the development of a Pipe Replacement Program. Pipe improvement projects were developed based on a comprehensive risk assessment, discussion with operation and maintenance staff, review of main break data, and review of pipes that provide service to facilities where water service is essential (hospitals, fire facilities, dialysis centers etc). The risk assessment included the use of artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI-ML) technology to develop the Likelihood of Failure (LoF) and the evaluation of the Consequence of Failure (CoF). The Pipe Replacement Program included recommendations for pipe replacement projects with a total estimated cost of $183M.
Hydraulic Analyses were conducted to assess the water system’s ability to meet average day, maximum day, peak hour, and maximum day plus fire flow demands. A hydraulic model was developed and calibrated to field conditions. The model was utilized to identify system hydraulic deficiencies.
Recommended improvements based on the hydraulic analyses included projects with a total estimated cost of $9M.

Water Rate Study
The proposed water rate was developed to ensure the City is able to deliver clean, safe, and reliable water on demand. The proposed rate structure is designed to be fair and equitable while also encouraging water conservation. The water rates are an investment back into the system to make critical upgrades and repairs to the water infrastructure as identified in the Water Master Plan.
Fund Analysis
Although the City has made many efforts to improve operations by leveraging technology to make certain operations more efficient, the cost of doing business has increased significantly. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased 5.9% in January 2021 and 7.2% for January 2022, for a combined inflation rate of approximately 13% just in the last two years. The last rate study was conducted in 2016 and was implemented between January 2017 through January 2022. However, rates have not increased since January 2021. Bids for capital improvement projects are coming in over budget by 5%-10%. The shortage of materials and the demand for labor has had a major impact on the cost of infrastructure improvements. On top of the cost of doing business, scarce supplies and the cost of water over the last two years from Metropolitan Water District has increased 11% for Tier 1 treated water and 24% for Tier 2 treated water. The following table is the adopted FY 2024 Operating Budget for the Water Fund:
Adopted FY 2024 Budget
REVENUES
Water Charges $ 19,115,500
Purchased Water 2,030,000

Debt Service 2,584,222
Transfers Out CIP 3,000,000
Total Expenditures $ 26,207,459
Gain (Loss) $ (3,029,584)
Additionally, historical data from Fiscal Year 2020-2021 was reviewed when developing the expenditures for this study. Projections were made with the best available planning data. The future expenditures were developed from the utility agencies (Three Valleys Municipal Water District, Main San Gabriel Valley Watermaster, Southern California Edison, Azusa Light and Water) projections and the consumer price index (CPI). The expenditures include the following:
a. Groundwater: The City’s eight (8) wells extract groundwater from the Main Basin. The Main San Gabriel Valley Watermaster manages the Operating Safe Yield (OSY) that regulates the allowable groundwater extractions. The City’s groundwater supply was based on 6,408 AFY (4.75% of OSY).
b. Imported Water: The City can supplement the groundwater supply with imported water from Three Valleys Municipal Water District (TVMWD) and/or Covina Irrigating Company. The imported water supply was based on 1,916 AFY from TVMWD.

Meeting Date: 9/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 6
Staff Report Page 4 of 6
c. Energy Supply: Southern California Edison (SCE) and Azusa Light and Water provide power to the booster pump stations and wells.
d. Debt Service: The City’s existing water fund debt service includes the 2012 Series A CSCDA Revenue Bonds, 2016 Series A Water Revenue Bond, and 2019 Pension Obligation Series A Bond. The proposed rate structure also includes the issuance of a new bond totaling $15M, which will fund part of the future CIP.
e. Historical Water Fund Expenditures: The remaining water expenditures were based on historical Water Fund expenditures and include: Water Administration, Water Customer Service, Support, Transmission and Distribution, Production, and Water Conservation. f. Capital Improvement Program: The rate structure is based on $30M of improvement projects being implemented over the next five years. The improvement project cost estimates are based on 2023 projections and were increased by the CPI for the next five years. $15M of the projects are planned to be funded through future bond issuance, and $15M are planned to be funded through revenue generated from the consumption charges.
Proposed Rate Structure
The updated revenue model was used to project revenues using various rate structures. The scenarios evaluated included: various consumption tiers, various CIP project implementation schedules, elevation charges for operation and maintenance expenses for customers in hydraulic zones at higher elevations; and different rates for customers with very high-water consumption. The proposed bi-monthly rate structure was developed to be fair and equitable and to encourage water conservation. The proposed rate structure includes the following:
a. Meter Connection Charge is a fixed charge based on the equivalent residential units (ERUs).
ERUs represent the average water usage by a single-family residential dwelling unit (customers with 5/8-inch and 3/4-inch meters). Customers with larger meter sizes were assigned ERUs reflecting the ratio of the average water usage by meter size to that of average usage for customers with 5/8-inch and 3/4-inch meters. The revenue generated for the meter connection charge was developed to fund the fixed expenditures, existing and future debt service, and 50% of the operation and maintenance related expenditures. The proposed bi-monthly Meter Connection Charges are summarized in Table 1.

Consumption Rates are based on the amount of water used and the cost of energy to pump water to higher elevations.
The proposed rate structure includes four (4) consumption tiers to promote water conservation. The estimated revenue will fund the expenditures for groundwater, purchased water, production, water conservation, and 50% of the capital improvement projects. The consumption thresholds between each tier were based on the SB1668 indoor water use goal, minimum month consumption by meter size, and the existing rate structure’s Baseline Allocation Threshold Units. The proposed consumption thresholds are summarized in Table 2.
Item #1. Page 4
Meeting Date: 9/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 7
Staff Report Page 5 of 6
Elevation Rates are broken up by four (4) zone classes, which were established as part of this study to assign the costs fairly and equitably. Each Zone consists of the following hydraulic zones:
Zone A: 1, 1RB, 1RA
Zone B: 2, 1A, 1B
Zone C: 3, 1BH1, 2H1, 2H2
The energy expenditures that are required to pump water to the higher zone classes and 50% of the operation and maintenance expenditures are expected to be funded through the elevation rates. The development of the elevation rates included the evaluation of historical energy expenditures by zone class, operation and maintenance expenditures, and consumption data by zone class.
The cost per CCF for water and energy is summarized in Table 3.

Master Fee Schedule
In June 2021, the City last updated the Master Fee Schedule, per City Resolution CC-2021-33. The City currently has 29 master fees to recover the cost of the services provided. The proposed master fee schedule is based on the estimated cost of service and includes 46 fees from 11 fee categories. The recommended fees were developed from the projected time to provide the services and the City’s staff hourly rates. Meters, meter boxes, locks, and other material fees were based on actual costs. All fees are projected to be increased by the CPI, for each fiscal year. The proposed master fee schedule is included in Attachment B.
Next Steps and Timeline
If the City Council and the Water Commission are in agreement with the proposed adjustments to the water rate, the next steps would be to direct staff to begin the process of implementing the water rate plan.
The tentative timeline would be:
End of September - Mail out Proposition 218 Notices
October 2023 - Conduct Community Workshops as necessary November 2023 - Conduct Public Hearing to adopt proposed water rates January 1, 2024 - New water rates to go into effect.
FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed rate structure included $30M in CIP projects that are to be implemented over the next five years. The updated revenue model was used to calculate the average bills for each customer using the existing and proposed rate structures.

SECTION ES
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ES-1 Introduction
The City of Glendora (City) provides potable water service to residential, commercial, industrial, public parks and schools. The City recognizes its responsibility to efficiently meet the customers’ needs with long range planning efforts. By reviewing its existing water system and future needs, the City can continue to maintain a high service level and reliability in its water system in a cost effective and fiscally responsible manner. This report is intended to update the domestic water analysis and to provide a comprehensive planning guide for improving and upgrading the City’s domestic water system through the year 2040.
ES-2 Water Service Area
The City’s water service area, shown on Figure ES-1, covers approximately 11 square miles, predominantly within the City of Glendora corporate boundaries. The southwesterly portion of the City, generally south of Foothill Boulevard and west of Grand Avenue is served water by the City of Azusa or Suburban Water Systems.
The service area is comprised of residential, commercial, and industrial land uses with most of the available flat land developed. The majority of the developed area consists of residential single-family homes. Currently, there are about 26 future developments/re-developments planned. Most are multifamily residential, mixed use developments, or medical/commercial building expansions (see Table 2-1).
Per the City’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP, 2020), the water service area population was 45,551 in 2020 and is projected to have a growth of 5.6% from 2020 to 2045. The 2045 service area population is expected to be about 48,093.
ES-3 Water Supply Analysis
The City maintains a diverse water supply portfolio to be able to meet its regular and peak demands while ensuring all water quality requirements and regulations are met. The City’s water supply portfolio consists primarily of groundwater and is supplemented with imported water. The City’s annual water production and purchase for the past ten years is shown on Figure ES-2.
Groundwater
The City has 8 active wells with a total capacity of 9,254 gpm (14,927 AFY). The groundwater is extracted from the Main San Gabriel Basin (Main Basin) and associated sub-basins. The City currently has 6,178 acre-feet per year (4.75261 percent of the annual safe yield of the basin as determined by the Water Master) of prescribed groundwater rights as part of the 1973 Main Basin Adjudication. In 2021, the City pumped 8,447 acre-feet, which represents approximately 81% of its demands.
Details of the City’s groundwater rights are provided in Section 3-2, San Gabriel Basin hydrogeologic conditions in Section 3-3;

Figure ES-2
Annual Water Production and Purchase
Imported Water
The City is a member agency of the Three Valley’s Municipal Water District (TVMWD). TVMWD is one of twenty-six-member agency wholesalers of Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) that provides imported water to the Southern California region via the Colorado River Aqueduct (CRA) and the State Water Project (SWP) systems.
The City has three active turnout connections (PM-6, PM-18, and PM-23) that is fed from MWD’s Upper Feeder. PM-6, PM-18, and PM-23 have maximum capacities of 15 cfs, 10 cfs, and 15 cfs, respectively, for a total maximum capacity of 40 cfs (28,979 AFY). In 2021, the City used 1,975 acrefeet, which represents approximately 19% of its demands.
Covina Irrigating Company
The City owns a connection with the Covina Irrigating Company (CIC) with a maximum capacity of
3.3 cfs (2,390 AFY). CIC can provide supplemental water to the City via treated surface water and pumped groundwater from the Main Basin. In 2021, the City did not use any water from CIC, but has a historical average use of 22 AFY.
Potential Local Groundwater Supply Development
The City’s existing average day water demands of 10,390 AFY closely approximate the current well field system production capacity (14,927 AFY per efficiency tests). With the increasing cost of imported water and increasing demands, it is advantageous for the City to maximize its groundwater pumping to meet the average day and peak season demands through enhanced groundwater pumping and evaluate other groundwater supply development options. 11,682 11,821 8,449 9,285 9,515 10,698 10,135 9,513

INTRODUCTION
CITY OF GLENDORA ES-4 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
The City should consider Well 3, Well 4, and Well 7 (Vosburg) as potential future supply sources to provide redundancy and offset the cost of using treated imported water. The City is currently working with TVMWD on an updated study with the most current information. The updated study should be based on:
Constructing two (2) new wells to replace the existing Well 3 and Well 4, which are over 100 years old.
Abandonment of the existing Wells 3 and 4
Constructing a new nitrate and perchlorate treatment plant based on the most current water quality data
Constructing a new forebay reservoir
Constructing a new booster pump station to pump the effluent to the San Gabriel Plant Constructing a new discharge pipe to the San Gabriel Plant, utilizing rehabilitated portions of the existing Vosburg Well discharge pipe at the 210 Freeway crossing, as well as channel and railroad crossings. The existing 18-inch discharge line is abandoned due to its deteriorated condition and the Gladstone Reservoir has been demolished Constructing a standby generator with an automatic transfer switch to operate the facility during commercial power outages
Constructing a new well to replace Well 7 (Vosburg Well) Abandonment of Well 7
Constructing a new discharge pipe from the new Well 7 to the Irwindale Treatment Plant Cost estimates for the possible future well development and associated facilities are estimated at $85 Million without Well 7 (see Table 3-3) and $125 Million with Well 7 (see Table 3-4). Grant and loan options for the project are discussed in detail in Section 3-4.1.
Water Supply Reliability
Over the past several years, the Main Basin has experienced a reduction in groundwater levels due to decreased stormwater replenishment and longer lasting droughts. The Water Master estimates that local runoff used for groundwater replenishment has decreased over the last 10 years on average to about 55,000 acre-feet per year when compared to the historical 40-year average (years 1970 to 2010) of 111,000 acre-feet per year. In consideration of water supply reliability, cyclic storage and conjunctive use agreements are discussed Section 3-5.1.2; MWD untreated water availability is discussed in Section 3-5.1.3; recharge using recycled water and stormwater capture is discussed in Section 3-6; water banking is discussed in Section 3-7; water conservation and rationing is discussed in Section 3-8; and Main Basin water rights purchases is discussed in Section 3-9.
Recommendations
Water supply reliability is a critical component to the City’s future water portfolio. Managing all the integrated parts of this portfolio will establish the most cost-effective approach to ensuring reliable service to the customers. The following are recommendations for the City to consider in implementing the City’s future water supply portfolio:
1. Construction of additional groundwater wells

2. Support of projects that increase the Main Basin OSY
3. Maximize the City’s cyclic storage account
4. Continue to consider replacing Well 3, Well 4, and Well 7 (Vosburg) as potential future supply source
5. Continue to work with its customers to ensure mandatory conservation restrictions are implemented and conservation rebates are readily available
6. Reach out to the non-municipal Main Basin Groundwater right holders to gage their interest in selling their groundwater rights.
7. Actively participate in TVMWD and Main Basin Water Policy decisions ES-5 Water Use
The City of Glendora’s total annual water production and purchase from 2012 to 2021, shown on Figure ES-1, ranged from 9,288 AFY to 13,156 AFY. The Governor declared a State of Emergency in January 2014 due to severe drought conditions in California. As a result, water conservation measures were implemented and the City’s water demand began to decline due to its customers conscientious water conservation efforts. The drought emergency declaration was lifted in April 2017.
However, California soon fell back into drought conditions in 2018 and 2020-2021. In the last five years, the demands have rebounded slightly, but not to the same level as it had once been in the early 2010’s. Over the past five years, the total production and purchase has stayed relatively steady and averaged about 10,390 AFY (9.28 mgd).
The City’s annual non-revenue water has been declining over the base five years. Since 2018-2019, the non-revenue water percentage has been within industry standard (10 percent or less). It is assumed that as the City completes more and more replacement of pipe, this will reduce the number of water line breaks each year and possible undetected leaks, which in turn will reduce the nonrevenue water volume.
Water Demand Variation
Demand variations through a year are influenced by seasonal effects such as temperature, humidity, and precipitation. System demand variations throughout a day are influenced by the customer base and the daily lifestyles of the customers.
Typical of most Southern California communities, the City’s water consumption exhibits a distinct seasonal pattern. Peak and low monthly consumption occur during the dry summer months and wet winter months, respectively. The maximum month and minimum month factors are estimated to be
1.40 and 0.44 times the average day demand, respectively.
Within any given month, demand can vary based on usage patterns (i.e., weekend usage is typically different than weekdays) and other factors such as irrigation schedules. The maximum demand day occurring over the course of the year is an important parameter for planning purposes as required source of supply is based on this demand. The maximum day demand factor is estimated to be 1.50 times the average day demand. The maximum day demand is therefore estimated to be about 15,585 AFY (9,664 gpm or 13.92 MGD).
Knowledge of accurate demand variations over a 24-hour period is essential for proper analysis of water systems. For this study, hourly demand variations were represented by the development of Item #1. Page 55

There are twenty (20) booster pump stations in existing water system. Three of the stations serve water to hydropneumatic systems. Details of each booster pump station are summarized in Table 5-
5. Pressure Regulating Stations
The City’s water system consists of three (3) pressure regulating stations as listed in Table 5-6. PRS2 is regularly operating to feed lower pressure Zone 1RA from pressure Zone 1. The other two facilities normally remain closed.
Imported Water Connections
The City has access to imported water through the four (4) connections listed in Table 5-7. The City’s goal is to maximize the use of groundwater to the extent possible and limit the amount of imported water that is drawn from these connections.
Emergency Connections
The City’s water system has four (4) emergency connections with neighboring cities or water utilities.
These inter-agency connections allow the City to obtain water from or provide water to adjacent water systems. The inter-agency connections and their locations are listed in Table 5-8. Each connection has to be manually activated.
ES-6 Performance Evaluation Criteria
Performance criteria are established to evaluate the adequacy of various water system components through a systematic analysis, and to identify necessary improvements to the system for inclusion in a Capital Improvement Program (CIP). For the City’s water system, these criteria are generally in accordance with the California Code of Regulations, Title 22. This includes service pressures, storage capacity, and sources of supply. Other criteria are based on federal, state and local jurisdictional requirements. The performance evaluation criteria is summarized in Table ES-2.
Details of the criteria can be found in Section 6.

ES-8 Model Calibration
The existing water system model was calibrated to verify the accuracy of the model, system configuration, and the hydraulic parameters utilized. The general calibration methodology was to gather as much system information as possible from available SCADA system data and pressure and reservoir level measuring equipment temporarily installed in the field. This information was then used for input into the model as well as comparison of model and field results. Typical indicators of an accurate model include the following:
Pressure differences of five (5) percent or less
Well and booster pump station flow differences of five (5) percent or less Reservoir level differences of 1 foot or less
The calibration period, the time period in which SCADA data and pressure data was collected in the field, was from May 25, 2022 to June 15, 2022. A 24-hour period was selected to represent normal demand and operating conditions during the calibration period. “Normal conditions” means that there were no noticeable anomalies and/or significant variation in the flows and pressures that could indicate an unusual event such as a fire or a main break. The calibration day was selected to be June 7, 2022.
All of the typical indicators of an accurate model were met after performing the calibration of City’s existing water system model. Details regarding the model development are included in Section 8.
ES-9 System Hydraulic Analysis
The established performance evaluation criteria detailed in Section 6 and the calibrated hydraulic model were utilized in analyzing the system and evaluating its adequacy under average day, maximum day, peak hour, and maximum day plus fire flow conditions. Analysis of the City’s source of supply, storage, and pumping facilities were also conducted. Existing and future system deficiencies were identified and mitigation projects were formulated based upon the results of the model runs, the facility analysis, and input from City staff. Proposed projects were added in the hydraulic model to test the operation of the system after implementation. The results of the analyses were used in formulating the capital improvement program.
Source of Supply
The criterion established requires the City’s source of supply to be equal to one maximum day demand. For the City of Glendora, this means that under current demand conditions, the City should have an existing source of supply capacity of 9,215 gpm (13.27 mgd). In the future, with increased demands, the City should have a source supply capacity of 9,361 gpm (13.48 mgd).
The City’s groundwater supply is shown in Table ES-3. Using design capacities, the total supply is 11,800 gpm which exceeds the existing and future source of supply requirement. Using the current capacities based off of recent efficiency tests, the total supply is 9,254 gpm which just meets the existing requirement. The City currently does often meet the maximum day demands by utilizing one of the imported water connections (PM-18/Amelia BPS).

INTRODUCTION
CITY OF GLENDORA ES-14 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
The imported water connections have a total capacity of 19,434 gpm as shown in Table ES-4, which exceeds the existing and future source of supply requirement. These connections are primarily planned to be utilized during peak demand periods and emergencies.
Storage
The system overall has a surplus of 1.447 million gallons of storage (See Table 9-3). The storage for each zone was also analyed and the following observations were made:
1. Zone 1, 1RA, & 1RB has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 3.37 MG.
2. Zone 1A has a storage deficit of 0.062 MG.
3. Zone 1B & 1BH1 has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 0.055 MG.
4. Zone 2, 2H1, & 2H2 has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 1.628 MG.
5. Zone 3 has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 2.117 MG.
6. Zone 3A has a storage deficit of 0.100 MG.
7. Zone 3B has a storage deficit of 0.302 MG.
8. Zone 3C & 3C1 has a storage deficit of 0.285 MG.
9. Zone 3D has a storage deficit of 0.281 MG.
10. Zone 4 has a storage deficit of 0.087 MG.
11. Zone 4A has a storage deficit of 0.133 MG.
The zones with storage deficits are primarily zones in the higher elevations of the service area with small demands. The fire suppression storage criteria is the dominant portion of the total required storage. It is often infeasible to construct larger storage tanks in these zones. It is therefore recommended that hydraulic studies and preliminary design studies be conducted to determine if fire flow pumps and/or larger capacity pumps can be installed at the pump stations that provide water to these zones.

CITY OF GLENDORA ES-15 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
The existing available storage system wide is estimated at 24.428 MG. The future average day and maximum day demands are estimated at 9.385 MG and 14.078 MG, respectively. In the event of an extreme emergency, without any well supply or imported water supply, the water system would be able to provide water to customers for about 2.6 average demand days or 1.7 maximum demand days. If an emergency is expected to last any longer, the customers would have to cut back on water use until supply sources can be implemented again.
Pumping and Supply Analysis by Hydraulic Zone
The pumping and supply analysis by hydraulic zone is shown in Table 9-4.
For open zones with sufficient fire demand storage, the pump capacity into the zone must meet the maximum day demands for the zone itself and any other zones it provides water to. Well supply and imported water directly supplying the zone can be included in the pump capacity. This criteria applies to the pump capacity into Zone 1, 2, and 3 because there is plenty of storage in the reservoirs in these zones. The pump capacity meets the criteria of one maximum day demand for Zone 1, 2, and
3. For open zones that do not have sufficient fire demand storage, the pump capacity into the zone must meet maximum day plus fire demands for the zone itself as well as any zones it provides water to.
Well supply and imported water directly supplying the zone can be included in the pump capacity.
This criteria applies to the pump capacity into Zone 1A, 1B, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 4, and 4A. The pump capacity does not meet the criteria of maximum day plus fire demand for any of these zones.
For closed zones, the pump capacity into the zone must meet maximum day plus fire demands or peak hour demands, whichever is greater. A separate fire pump can be installed to meet the fire flow requirements. This criteria applies to the pump capacity into Zone 1BH1, 2H1, and 2H2. The pump capacity does not meet the criteria of maximum day plus fire demand for any of these zones.
The zones that do not meet the pumping capacity criteria are the zones with low daily demands.
These zones generally do not have large reservoirs because the demands are low. It would be difficult to turn over the water in a large reservoir on a daily basis with such low demands. Water would become stagnant and water quality would degrade.
In all of the zones that do not meet the pumping capacity criteria, the pumping capacity into the zone exceeds the maximum day demands of the service zone. The fire flow demand is the dominant portion of the required pumping capacity. In lieu of constructing more and/or larger storage reservoirs in these zones, it is recommended that hydraulic studies and preliminary design studies be conducted to determine if fire flow pumps and/or larger capacity pumps can be installed at the pump station that provide water to these zones. These studies go hand in hand with the studies recommended for zones with storage deficits.
System Pressures and Velocities
The hydraulic model was utilized to analyze the existing and future system under various demand conditions.
Service pressures exceed 80 psi (maximum pressure allowed per the plumbing code without a pressure regulator) throughout the system. City staff reports that all services in these areas of high pressures have pressure regulators installed.

INTRODUCTION
CITY OF GLENDORA ES-16 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
There is just one location in the system that experiences a maximum velocity between 7 and 8 feet.
This is within the 24-inch pipe downstream of the San Gabriel Booster Pump Station. Although the velocity is predicted by the model to exceed the criteria, the exceedance is very minimal and therefore it is not believed to be a major issue. No action is recommended.
Fire Flow Analysis
The fire flow analysis was conducted utilizing the existing maximum day demand scenario. Fire flow demands were applied at all fire hydrant locations in the model. If the fire node was located near multiple land use types, the highest fire flow demand was utilized. The fire flow criterion requires a residual pressure of 20 psi at the fire hydrant outlet. Since the City’s hydraulic model only includes the location of the hydrant connection with the mainline and not the hydrant itself, a residual pressure of 26 psi is utilized for analysis purposes. It is estimated that there will be about 6 psi loss from the water main, through a typical 6-inch hydrant lateral to the fire hydrant outlet.
If the residual pressure criteria was still not met utilizing multiple hydrants in a certain area, improvement recommendations were developed, which either include a pipe size increase, pipe looping, and/or addition or relocation of fire hydrants. There are areas where fire flows can be increased if the hydrant is connected to a larger pipe or a pipe in an upper zone, located nearby. The fire flow improvement locations are shown on Plate 9-1.
Additional Hydraulic Improvements
Additional hydraulic improvements are recommended based on staff interviews:
1. Looping of pipes in Zone 3D (Bluebird Reservoirs and BPS) to improve hydraulics and fire flow availability.
2. Extension of pipes in North Glendora Avenue in Zone 3A for future customers.
3. A connection at Bennet Avenue and Parkview Terrace to improve hydraulics and fire flow availability.
The additional improvement locations are shown on Plate 9-1.
Water Age Analysis
The water age analysis was conducted utilizing the existing average day demand scenario for a 90 day period. Generally, Zone 1 was found to have the lowest water age (1 to 5 days) in the system because the source of supply is constantly providing water directly into Zone 1. The area of Zone 1 south of the 210 Freeway has higher water age than the rest of the zone, ranging from 5 to 10 days.
Water age in the higher zones generally range up to 15 days. Water age in Zone 3C and 3C1 exceeds 15 days due to minimal demands.
Generally, a water age of 7 days or less is desired. Mixers can help in reducing water age and improving water quality and have been recommended for several reservoirs. Newly constructed reservoirs should include mixers in the future.
ES-10 Pipe Replacement Program
According to the 2021 Drinking Water Report Card, developed by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the national average break rate ranged between 10 breaks per 100 miles of pipe per year to 37 breaks per 100 miles of pipe per year.

INTRODUCTION
CITY OF GLENDORA ES-17 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
The break records show that the City’s water system has experienced about 225 breaks per year between 2017 and 2021, summarized in Figure ES-6. This equates to 107 breaks per year per 100 miles of pipe (225 breaks / 2.1 hundred miles of pipe), which is much greater than the national average.
Figure ES-6
Pipe Break History
Based on a review of the City’s as-built plans from the last 10 years, the City has been replacing an average of 10,300 feet of pipe annually (1% of the total system). It is recommended that the City continue implementing an annual pipe replacement program to reduce the number of water breaks each year.
For this Master Plan study, the recommended pipe replacement program was developed based on historical breaks and leak records, a risk assessment, problematic areas identified by City staff, and critical facility (hospitals, police stations, fire stations, etc) locations. These project recommendations were developed independently of the hydraulic analyses.
Risk Assessment
Risk assessments have become more important as the average age of infrastructure in Southern California has increased and more breaks have occurred. The Water Research Foundation describes the main objectives of an effective risk assessment as one that includes:
1. Reduction in the number and cost of failures, by identifying high-risk assets and enabling costeffective, targeted, proactive remedies Item #1. Page 67
Meeting Date: 9/12/2023 / Packet Page #: 70
INTRODUCTION
CITY OF GLENDORA ES-18 Water Master Plan

2. Extension of the useful life of assets, by distinguishing those that are merely old from those that are truly impaired
3. Reduction in uncertainties, enabling confident answers to question from the public and others Risk relates to the probability of something bad happening, or the likelihood of a negative impact occurring, and over time, a water distribution system will experience water breaks or leaks. These failures in a water system can be caused by multiple factors such as pipe age, pipe material, pipe bedding, water characteristics, external loads (from traffic or soils), soil characteristics, and/or weather. Some of the primary goals of a water utility are to prevent catastrophic failures from occurring, address breaks and leaks as quickly as possible, and continue to provide reliable and safe water to its customers while minimizing disruptions to service.
Risk is the combination of both Likelihood of Failure (LoF) and Consequence of Failure (CoF). It takes into account the asset’s physical condition, as well as the impact that its failure would have on system performance. LoF refers to the probability of failure based on the pipe features, surrounding area attributes, and historical pipe break data. CoF is the combination of direct and indirect impacts on the vicinity and community due to a potential asset failure.
The pipeline risk assessment includes an evaluation of various elements that affect the LoF and CoF.
Artificial intelligence, machine learning (AI-ML) technology was used to calculate the LoF for the pipeline risk assessment. Contracted by AKM, Fracta provided the software as a service (SaaS) solution to develop the LoF scores.
The CoF elements were modeled in the Fracta online platform, using the widely accepted triple bottom line (TBL) framework, which is a method that categorizes the consequence of failure as social, economic, and environmental factors.
Details of the risk assessment can be found in Section 10.
Pipe Priorities
Pipe priorities were developed by looking at the total risk score, historical pipe break data, LoF scores, City pipe concerns, and pipes near critical facilities (businesses or operations where water service is essential, such as hospitals, police facilities, fire facilities, dialysis centers, and care facilities). Pipe priorities are categorized as follow:
Pipe Priority 1 projects include pipes with the following:
o Total Risk scores in the top 1% of the total system length o History of pipe breaks (9 or more breaks between 2012 and 2021) o LoF scores greater than 75% probability of breaking in the first year. Pipe Priority 2 projects include pipes with the following:
o Total Risk scores between 1.1% and 5% of the total system length o History of pipe breaks (Between 3 and 8 breaks between 2012 and 2021) o LoF scores greater than 75% probability of breaking in the second year. Pipe Priority 3 projects include pipes with the following:
o Total Risk scores between 5.1% and 20% of the total system length o History of pipe breaks (2 breaks between 2012 and 2021) Item #1. Page 68

o LoF scores greater than 75% probability of breaking in the fifth year. o Pipes of concern
o Pipes near critical facilities
Project Recommendations
Project recommendations were generally developed to include groups of pipes in the same general vicinity. The project priority was based on the highest individual pipe priority within each group of pipes and are categorized as Project Priority 1, Project Priority 2, and Project Priority 3.
The individual projects within each priority group were prioritized based on discussions with the City regarding historical condition concerns, the total pipe CoF values within each project, and the results from the hydraulic analyses.
As the Priority 1 projects in the pipe replacement program are implemented, it is recommended that the City reevaluate the lower Priority 2 and 3 projects with newer current leak and break data. The pipe priority and project recommendations should be updated at that time.
The pipe replacement projects are shown on Plate 10-2 and summarized in Table 10-6. The detailed project summary data is included in Appendix 10-1.
The total Pipe Replacement Program costs are as follows:
Priority 1 Projects 101,400 feet $64.8M
Priority 2 Projects 67,900 feet $43.4M
Priority 3 Projects 100,100 feet $75.0M
Total 269,300 feet $183.1M
ES-11 Facility Assessments
As a part of the Master Plan work, each well, pump station, and storage reservoirs was evaluated to assess its condition and develop improvement recommendations. As-built plans, sanitary survey reports, maintenance records, pump curves and efficiency tests, dive reports, and other available historical information were reviewed as a part of the evaluation. City staff was interviewed by and accompanied AKM staff on tours of each facility as well.
Details of all assessments and recommendations can be found in Section 11, Appendix 11-1 and Appendix 11-2.
ES-12 Capital Improvement Program
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) consists of projects that will enhance the distribution system to meet the established criteria, properly maintain the system’s assets, and replace the facilities that have reached the end of their useful lives. The goal of the CIP is to provide the City of Glendora with a long-range planning tool for implementing its water system improvements in an orderly manner and a basis for financing of these improvements. In order to accomplish this goal, it is necessary to estimate project costs of the recommended system improvements, establish a basis, and prioritize the projects.
It should be noted that some of the improvements recommended herein are conceptual in nature based on existing available information. Therefore, they should not be considered as absolute for Item #1. Page 69

final design. Further analysis and refinement will be necessary prior to commencing work on the final plans, specifications and estimates package for each project. Detailed preliminary design studies should be prepared to select the final design projects.
Pipeline Replacement Cost Estimates
Proposed pipe replacement project costs are planning level estimates based upon recent information provided by the City for similar projects and include contingencies for this planning level study.
Specific alignments and refined cost estimates should be developed as part of the preliminary design phase for each recommended project.
The following construction costs were utilized for the Fire Flow Improvements (Table 9-6), Additional Hydraulic Improvements (Table 9-7) and the Pipe Replacement Program Projects (Table 10-6).
1. Pipeline replacement cost = $50 per diameter inch per foot of pipe. The replacement costs are based on pipeline replacement projects between Fiscal Year 2018-2019 and Fiscal Year 2020-2021.
2. Addition of a fire hydrant to an existing water main or reconnection of a fire hydrant lateral to an existing water main = $15,000
3. Valve replacement = $10,000
The total project costs include construction, contingency, design and administrative, and construction management and inspection costs. The individual cost components are calculated as follows:
1. Construction Cost = Unit Cost x Recommended Units
2. Design and Administrative Cost = 15% of the Construction Cost
3. Construction Management Cost = 15% of the Construction Cost
4. Contingency Cost = 20% of the Construction Cost
5. Total Project Cost = Construction Cost + Design and Administrative Cost + Construction Management Cost + Contingency Cost
Total Project Cost = 1.5 x Construction Cost
Facility Improvement Costs
The recommended facility improvement cost estimates (Table 11-3) are based upon recent project experience and include contingencies for this planning level study.
The total project costs include construction, contingency, design and administrative, and construction management and inspection costs. The individual cost components are calculated as follows:
1. Construction Cost = Unit Cost x Recommended Units
2. Design and Administrative Cost = 20% of the Construction Cost
3. Construction Management Cost = 15% of the Construction Cost
4. Contingency Cost = 20% of the Construction Cost
5. Total Project Cost = Construction Cost + Design and Administrative Cost + Construction Management Cost + Contingency Cost

Total Project Cost = 1.55 x Construction Cost
The design cost is set at a higher percentage for facility improvements than it is for pipeline improvements. It is expected that facility improvements will require preliminary design studies and hydraulic analysis that will result in a higher design cost than the pipeline improvements.
Construction costs are expected to fluctuate as changes occur in the economy. These costs should therefore be reevaluated and updated annually based upon Engineering News Record (ENR) Index for the Los Angeles area (ENRLA), with the base ENRLA Index of 14,033.31 for February 2023.
Project Priorities
The primary consideration in establishing project priorities for the capital improvement program list must always be given to the health, safety and welfare of the public and the customers.
The fire flow improvement projects provided in Table 9-6 are listed in order of priority based on the degree of the fire deficiency identified in the hydraulic model analysis described in Section 9.
The pipe replacement program projects provided in Table 10-6 are listed in order of priority based on the risk assessment described in Section 10.
The facility improvements are provided in Tables 11-1 through 11-4 by facility site. The improvements are sorted by priority in Appendix 11-2.
Although recommended projects are assigned a priority based on the analysis conducted for this Master Plan study, the City should review the prioritization and adjust it annually to respond to changed conditions and to take advantage of concurrent construction, such as street paving projects or adjacent infrastructure work.
The recommendations and cost estimates are guidelines for the City to plan future projects and financing. Preliminary design and more detailed hydraulic studies may lead to changes in project definitions and costs as well as priorities.

Irwindale Facility
Possible redevelopment of Wells 3, 4, and 7 and upgrades to the Irwindale Facility are discussed in Section 3-4.1. Potential costs are provided in Tables 3-3 and 3-4. It is estimated that upgrades to the Irwindale Water Treatment Facility, including Well 3 and 4 would cost about $84 Million. If redevelopment and construction of Well 7 is included in the project, the cost would increase to about $127 Million. These costs were not included in the CIP as a study was underway at the time of the Master Plan and funding options were being considered.
Short Term Capital Improvement Projects
Many high priority projects have been identified through this Water Master Plan Update. It is going to take time for the City to address all the recommended projects.

1-4 Organization of Report
The Glendora Water Master Plan describes and documents the totality of the project effort, including the methodology for developing the hydraulic model and system analysis and recommendations for system improvements. A brief outline of the report is as follows:
Section ES: Executive Summary
Section 1: Introduction
Section 2: Water Service Area
Section 3: Water Supply Analysis
Section 4: Water Use
Section 5: Existing System
Section 6: Performance Evaluation Criteria
Section 7: Hydraulic Model
Section 8: Model Calibration
Section 9: System Hydraulic Analysis
Section 10: Pipeline Replacement Program
Section 11: Facility Assessments
Section 12: Capital Improvement Program
1-5 Hydraulic Zoning Nomenclature Modifications
As part of the Water Master Plan, the hydraulic Zone IDs have been renamed to simplify the zone naming, reducing it to four primary zones, and create terminology that describes the zones in relation to each other. The old Zone IDs and the new Zone IDs are provided in Table 1-1. The four primary zones are generally the zones with the greatest demand. The smaller zones that are provided water from the primary zones were assigned an associated name (i.e. Zone 1A is provided water from Zone 1). The old ID system is shown on Figure 1-1. The new ID system is shown on Figure 1-2. The remainder of the Water Master Plan report utilizes the new ID system.
The old Reservoir IDs were related to the old Zone IDs. Therefore, the Reservoir IDs were also modified. The reservoirs are now named with their common name (i.e. Hidden Springs, Hicrest, Country Club, etc.) and a letter identifier. Pump IDs were maintained, as they are not associated with zones.
The future hydraulic schematic is shown on Figure 1-3. The only difference is the North Glendora Reservoir site. In the future, there will be two North Glendora Reservoirs that will replace the current one. See Section 11-3 for more details.

SECTION 2
WATER SERVICE AREA
2-1 Location
The City of Glendora’s (City) water service area is located in northeasterly Los Angeles County (County), approximately 21 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles, and predominantly within the City of Glendora. The City lies within the San Gabriel Valley with the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains along the northern portion of the City, which includes the Angeles National Forest. The City is bounded by the Cities of Azusa to the west, Covina to the south, and San Dimas to the east as well unincorporated portions of Los Angeles County. Interstate 210 is the primary regional freeway providing access into and out of the City. The primary east-west circulation routes within the City are Sierra Madre Avenue, Foothill Boulevard, Route 66 (Alosta Avenue) and Gladstone Street. The primary north-south routes are Grand Avenue and Glendora Avenue.
The water service area, shown on Figure 2-1, covers approximately 11 square miles within the City of Glendora. The City of Glendora, including unincorporated County areas within its sphere of influence encompasses about 20 square miles. The southwesterly portion of the City, generally south of Foothill Boulevard and west of Grand Avenue is served water by the City of Azusa or Suburban Water Systems. The local water utility service areas are shown on Figure 2-2. 2-2 Topography and Geology
The City has varying terrain with elevations ranging between 620 and 1400 feet above mean sea level (amsl). The northern one-sixth of the City contains the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains and includes part of the Angeles National Forest. The natural terrain in this area is in slope which exceeds 25 percent. Most of the remainder of the City has a moderate slope, generally 2 to 5 percent in a southwesterly direction. The exception is South Hills Park in the south-central portion of the City, where elevations range from about 750 feet to above 1200 feet with natural slopes for the most part exceeding 25 percent.
Glendora is located at the foot of the San Gabriel Mountains on an upper alluvial fan of the San Gabriel Valley. This setting produces two major terrain types within the City: alluvial fan and foothill.
The valley consists of a roughly bowl-shaped depression in the bedrock, filled over millions of years with alluvial deposits. Most of the alluvium deposited within this depression is debris from the San Gabriel Mountains, washed and blown from the sides of the mountains over time The valley soils are predominantly members of the Hanford Series. The soils in this series are welldrained or somewhat excessively drained soils that have formed in granitic alluvium. The Hanford soils in the Glendora area are chiefly fine sandy loam or gravelly sandy loam. Runoff is slow to medium for this soil, and the hazard of erosion is slight to moderate. The amount of gravel in the gravelly variety ranges from 20 to 35 percent, by volume.
Bedrock units are exposed in the San Gabriel Foothills and the South Hills. Three types of bedrock are prevalent: 1) sedimentary units of sandstone and siltstone; 2) volcanic lavas, tuffs, and mixtures of both; and 3) an igneous-metamorphic complex of resistant crystalline rocks.

2-3 Climate
The climate in the area is typical of Southern California with generally mild temperatures, virtually no days below freezing, and plenty of sunshine throughout the year. The warmest months are typically experienced in August with an average maximum temperature of 91° F. The coolest months are typically experienced in December and January with an average minimum temperature of 38.5° F.
Rainfall at the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works, Glendora City Hall Station 287B between rain year 2000-2001 and 2020-2021 is shown in Figure 2-3. The average annual rainfall of about 18.7 inches occurred primarily during the winter months, between December and March.
The state of California declared a Drought State of Emergency on January 17, 2014 as rainfall and snowfall in the state had been well below average for the prior five to seven years. Even though the drought was officially declared at an end on April 7, 2017, rainfall and snowfall levels continued to remain low until rain year 2018-2019 when California experienced an unusually wet year.
Climate change is expected to result in more variable weather patterns throughout California in the future. This variability may lead to longer and more severe droughts and floods, which will present significant challenges to California water supply conditions.

Per the City’s 2025 Land Use Element, “The City is almost completely developed with only 0.3 percent of developable land remaining vacant. The fully developed state of the City means that most services are sufficiently available to new growth occurring or expected to occur on underutilized parcels and in redevelopment areas within the City”. New high end housing development is occurring in the hillside areas where it is typically more difficult to develop. Higher density infill is planned along Route
66. The existing land uses in the study area are shown on Figure 2-4. Future known development areas are shown in Table 2-1 and on Figure 2-5.

2-5 Population
The historical population growth for the City of Glendora is shown in Table 2-2. This population data is based upon information developed by the California Department of Finance and based on U.S.
Census Bureau data.
Table 2-2
City of Glendora Population
The population in the City of Glendora exploded in the 1950’s and grew steadily up to 1990. In the past three decades, the growth has slowed significantly. This is supported by the fact that the City of Glendora has become nearly built-out.
The 2021 population within the City was 51,569 persons. The total number of housing units was 18,504 dwelling units (Ref: California Department of Finance, Table E-5). This is equivalent to 2.79 persons per dwelling unit with a 4.4% vacancy rate.
Per the City’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP, 2020), the water service area population was 45,551 in 2020 and is projected to have a growth of 5.6% from 2020 to 2045. The 2045 service area population is expected to be about 48,093. The difference in population between the City of Glendora and its water service area can be attributed to the fact that there are small portions of the City that are provided water service by an adjacent agency.

SECTION 3
WATER SUPPLY ANALYSIS
3-1 Water Supply Sources
The City of Glendora (City) maintains a diverse water supply portfolio to be able to meet its regular and peak demands while ensuring all water quality requirements and regulations are met. The City’s water supply portfolio consists primarily of groundwater and is supplemented with imported water.
The City’s annual water production and purchase for the past ten years is shown on Figure 3-1. The following is an overview of the City’s water supplies and associated capacities.
Figure 3-1
Annual Water Production and Purchase
3-1.1 Groundwater
The City has 8 active wells with a total capacity of 9,254 gpm (14,927 AFY). The groundwater is extracted from the Main San Gabriel Basin (Main Basin) and associated sub-basins. The City currently has 6,178 acre-feet per year (4.75261 percent of the annual safe yield of the basin as determined by the Water Master) of prescribed groundwater rights as part of the 1973 Main Basin Adjudication. In 2021, the City pumped 8,447 acre-feet, which represents approximately 81% of its demands.
3-1.2 Imported Water
The City is a member agency of the Three Valley’s Municipal Water District (TVMWD). TVMWD is one of twenty-six-member agency wholesalers of Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (MWD) that provides imported water to the Southern California region via the Colorado River Aqueduct (CRA) and the State Water Project (SWP) systems. 11,682 11,821 8,449 9,285 9,515 10,698 10,135

CITY OF GLENDORA 3-2 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
The City has three active turnout connections (PM-6, PM-18, and PM-23) that is fed from MWD’s Upper Feeder. PM-6, PM-18, and PM-23 have maximum capacities of 15 cfs, 10 cfs, and 15 cfs, respectively, for a total maximum capacity of 40 cfs (28,979 AFY). In 2021, the City used 1,975 acrefeet, which represents approximately 19% of its demands. 3-1.3 Covina Irrigating Company
The City owns a connection with the Covina Irrigating Company (CIC) with a maximum capacity of
3.3 cfs (2,390 AFY). CIC can provide supplemental water to the City via treated surface water and pumped groundwater from the Main Basin. In 2021, the City did not use any water from CIC, but has a historical average use of 22 AFY.
3-2 Existing Groundwater Rights
The Main San Gabriel Basin (Main Basin) lies in eastern Los Angeles County, California. The watershed coincides with a portion of the upper San Gabriel River watershed, and the groundwater basin underlies most of the San Gabriel Valley. The surface area of the Main Basin is approximately 167 square miles. The Main Basin is bounded by the San Gabriel Mountains to the north, San Jose Hills to the east, Puente Hills to the south, and by a series of hills and the Raymond Fault to the west.
The watershed is drained by the San Gabriel River and Rio Hondo, a tributary of the Los Angeles River. Figure 3-2 provides an overview of the Main Basin.
The City has rights to pump groundwater from the Main Basin, which involves extensive governance and monitoring overseen by the Main San Gabriel Basin Water Master (Water Master), legal compliance, and ultimately usage by the Pumpers. The following is a summary of the Main Basin water rights and the associated tools that allow navigation for the extraction of groundwater from the Main Basin.
3-2.1 Judgements
Two main judgements dictate pumping from the Main Basin. These judgements are summarized as follows:
Long Beach Judgement: The Long Beach Judgement was established in September 1965. This judgement requires that the area downstream from Whittier Narrows (Lower Area) receive an annual usable quantity of water from the San Gabriel River system made up of surface flow, subsurface flow and any water exported to the Lower Area. Any deficiency of usable water to the lower area is guaranteed by the Upper Area through the form of imported water purchased by the Water Master. The Long Beach Judgement also mandated oversight management through the formation of the San Gabriel River Water Master which is a separate entity from the Main Basin Water Master. The two Water Masters work collaboratively to ensure compliance with the Long Bach Judgement.
Main Basin Judgement: The Main Basin Judgement was entered into in January 1973. This Judgement resulted in the adjudication of the Main Basin. The Main Basin Judgement provides for the replacement of water extracted from the Main Basin beyond a Party’s annual right established as part of the adjudication. The Main Basin Judgement is overseen by the Water Master. The Water Master establishes an annual Operating Safe Yield (OSY) which defines the maximum quantity of water each pumper is allocated to pump free of a replacement water Item #1. Page 90

assessment. If a Pumper pumps beyond its allocation, it must provide Supplemental Water that is spread into the Main Basin and pay the associated replacement water assessment.
Figure 3-2
San Gabriel Main Basin
3-2.2 Operating Safe Yields and Water Rights
The OSY defines the amount of groundwater each Pumper within the Main Basin can pump free of being charged the replacement water assessment. The Main Basin is estimated to have approximately 8.7 million acre-feet of usable storage based on a 1916 groundwater elevation of 329 feet at the Baldwin Park Key Well (Key Well). While this is an extraordinary amount of storage, and like all groundwater basins, it must be monitored, managed, and pumping limitations must be enforced to ensure the overall health of the basin and associated groundwater levels.
There are several critical factors in the OSY calculation that determine the annual amount of water that can be extracted by the Pumpers from the Main Basin. These factors include the current and projected groundwater elevation at the Key Well, which represents the water stored in the Main Basin.
A one-foot change in elevation at the Key Well represents approximately 8,000 acre-feet of stored water (refer to Section 3-3 for more details on Main Basin Storage). Other factors included in the OSY calculation include consideration of Main Basin hydrologic conditions (e.g., rainfall, storage of Key

local run-off in surface reservoirs, conservation, stormwater runoff, etc.), availability of Supplemental Water, Cyclic Storage quantities, and Carry-over Rights. Since 1973 the OSY has ranged from a maximum of 240,000 acre-feet per year (years 2005-2006) to a low of 130,000 acre-feet per year, recently adopted by the Main Basin Water Master for fiscal years 2023 through 2027.
The City’s groundwater right of the established OSY is 4.75261 percent which yields a pumping right of 6,178 acre-feet per year through fiscal year 2027. The higher the OSY, the greater the City’s groundwater pumping right. The City’s pumping rights since 2012 in association with the established OSY and the future OSY for fiscal years 2023 to 2027 is shown in Table 3-1.
Over the past 10 years, the City’s pumping allocation has been reduced by approximately 3,800 acre-feet per year or 38%. The Water Master is collaboratively managing the Main Basin health to ensure longevity of future water supplies with several competing challenges (e.g., increased demands, drought, etc.).
This decrease will result in the pumping of additional groundwater at an increased cost due to the replacement water assessment and/or use of more imported water. 3-2.3 Assessments
As a Pumper within the Main Basin, the City is required per the Main Basin Judgement to pay assessments to fund basin management, administrative, and replenishment activities. The following is a summary of the various Main Basin assessments:
Replacement Water Assessment: This assessment is applied when a Pumper exceeds pumping beyond its allocated water right from the Main Basin. Resource Development Assessment: This assessment is applied unilaterally across all Pumpers for every acre-feet of pumping from the Main Basin to support the purchase of supplemental imported water to augment natural recharge for the benefit of the basin. In-Lieu Assessment: This assessment is applied to Pumpers who take imported water in-lieu of pumping their groundwater rights to assist in promoting health of basin management to maintain groundwater levels in specific parts of the basin.
Administration Assessment: This assessment is applied unilaterally across all Pumpers for every acre-feet of pumping from the Main Basin to support the administrative functions of the Water Master.
Make-up Water Assessment: This assessment is applied to all Pumpers when the required amount of water cannot be naturally delivered to the Lower Area as determined by the San Gabriel River Water Master.
Table 3-2 provides an overview of the fiscal years 2022 and 2023 Main Basin assessments.
The City pays each of the respective assessments based on the conditions in which they pump groundwater. As long as the City stays within its pumping right allocation, the City pays the Resource 2012 210,000 9,980

3-3 San Gabriel Basin
Hydrogeologic
Conditions
In addition to the regional vastness
of the Main Basin demonstrated on
Figure 3-2, the Main Basin supports
a robust hydrogeologic aquifer that
allows tremendous storage of groundwater.
3-3.1 Basin Characteristics
The Main Basin is divided into two main parts, the Main Basin and the Puente Subbasin. While the Puente Subbasin is hydraulicly connected to the Main Basin, it is not considered to be part of the Main Basin management and thus not under the purview of the Water Master. The Main Basin principal water-bearing formations are unconsolidated and semi-consolidated sediments which range in size from coarse gravel to fine-grained sands. While there are clay lenses throughout the Main Basin, there is not a uniform clay layer to form an impenetrable barrier. Thus, the Main Basin operates as an unconfined aquifer. The Main Basin ranges in depth from 800 feet (San Dimas area) above sea level to 2,200 feet below sea level (South El Monte area). Wells located in the deeper regions of the Main Basin have water bearing formations of approximately 4,000 feet and wells in the shallower regions have water bearing formations of approximately 200-300 feet. Wells located in the deeper formations provide greater yields then wells located in the shallower regions. 3-3.2 Sub-Basins
There are several sub-basins within the Main Basin. The two main sub-basins within the Main Basin that most affect the City are the Glendora Sub-basin and the Canyon Sub-basin.
The Glendora Sub-basin is located in the northeastern region of the Main Basin. It is primarily defined by the faults of the Sierra Madre Fault system, which is an east-west fault system spanning from northeast of San Dimas and westerly to the Sawpit Canyon near Monrovia. These faults dictate the groundwater movement between the Glendora Basin and the Main Basin. The City pumps part of its water supply from this location of the Main Basin. These wells typically yield less water due to the shallow nature of the basin in this area.
The Canyon Basin is located in the northern region of the Main Basin. Its boundaries are also defined by the Sierra Madre Fault system, which is generally located along the southerly base of the San Gabriel Mountains. Like the Glendora Sub-basin, these faults dictate the movement of water into the Main Basin. The City, along with other Pumpers, produce groundwater from this region of the basin.
Groundwater elevations in this part of the basin can be sensitive to drought conditions which have varied by more than 90 feet during extensive drought seasons.
A detailed discussion of the Main Basin hydrogeology can be found in the “Planned Utilization of Ground Water Basins, San Gabriel Valley, Appendix A: Geo-hydrology” (DWR, 1966).

3-3.3 Flow Characteristics
Water flow within the Main Basin is generally from a northeasterly to southwesterly direction. The various faults influence how water moves throughout the basin. The general direction of flow through the Basin is shown on Figure 3-3.
Groundwater does not flow between the Raymond Basin and the Main Basin due to the impervious nature of the Raymond Fault. Water flows into the Whittier Narrows is governed by the Long Beach Judgement as discussed in Section 3-2. The natural flow tendency, permeability, and optimum soil conditions (e.g., sands and gravels) of the Main Basin allows its Pumpers to produce cost effective water and allow the required amount of water to flow into the Lower Area. 3-3.4 Storage
Storage within the Main Basin is estimated to be approximately 8.7 million acre-feet per the 1916 groundwater elevation of 329.1 feet as measured at the Key Well, and as low as 7.4 million acre-feet per the 2018 groundwater elevation of 169.4 feet as measured at the Key Well. An overview of the Key Well groundwater elevations from 1997 to present is shown on Figure 3-4.
A key metric used by the Water Master in managing the basin is to maintain a 200-foot groundwater elevation at the Key Well. There is a distinct correlation between the Key Well elevation and sufficient water supplies for Pumpers to maintain a high OSY to maximize their pumping right allocations each year (refer to Table 3-1). As seen on Figure 3-4, groundwater levels in the Key Well clearly diminish in drought years such as 2015. The OSY was reduced from 180,000 acre-feet in 2014 to 150,000 acre-feet in 2015 and 130,000 acre-feet in 2023. Reduced groundwater levels and associated OSY has a direct effect on the City’s ability to pump cost-effective groundwater. 3-3.5 Main Basin Replenishment
The Main Basin has four major sources of replenishment. These sources include incidental rainfall recharge throughout the San Gabriel Valley, stormwater recharge through percolation, imported water recharge through percolation via spreading grounds, and natural river recharge along the various rivers and tributaries. Stormwater capture and recharge and imported water recharge are performed via spreading basins across the Main Basin and are operated by the Los Angeles County Department of Public Works. Some spreading basin are multi-purpose and can spread both imported water and captured stormwater, while others are used purely for imported water.
The ability to measure groundwater recharge quantities is difficult, thus requiring estimates for many of the recharge activities. Imported water recharge is performed with somewhat of a quantifiable amount due to the metering of imported water. Stormwater capture is performed with a rough estimate as stormwater is captured and released in measured quantities. The Main Basin Water Master provides an overall recharge amount to the Main Basin each year knowing that it is a rough estimate and relies heavily on the Key Well elevation to determine the overall health of the Main Basin. Since 1973, it is estimated that approximately 7.5 million acre-feet has been recharged into the Main Basin through natural recharge, treated groundwater clean-up, cyclic storage, and resource development water recharge. The Water Master estimates that historical stormwater recharge has declined over the past decade on average from 111,000 acre-feet per year to approximately 55,000 acre-feet per year making it essential to find other water sources to make-up this shortfall.

Baldwin Park Key Well Elevations
Each of the Main Basin imported water wholesalers (Three Valleys Municipal Water District (TVMWD), San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District (SGVMWD), and the Upper San Gabriel Valley Municipal Water District (USGVMWD)) have cyclic storage agreements with the Water Master to purchase and store untreated imported water when it becomes available to help offset the cost impacts of having to purchase replacement water. Many of the Pumpers also have individual cyclic storage agreements. Cyclic storage results in an overall benefit to the Main Basin with increasing groundwater levels and lower operating costs to Pumpers. The City has a Cyclic Storage Agreement to store 5,500 acre-feet of water.
3-4 Potential Local Groundwater Supply Development
The City’s existing average day water demands of 10,390 AFY closely approximate the current well field system production capacity (14,927 AFY per efficiency tests). With the increasing cost of imported water and increasing demands, it is advantageous for the City to maximize its groundwater pumping to meet the average day and peak season demands through enhanced groundwater pumping and evaluate other groundwater supply development options. Groundwater Supply Development Options are discussed below.

3-4.1 Irwindale Facility - Well 3 and Well 4 Groundwater Development The Irwindale Facility, which includes Wells 3 and 4, as well as the Irwindale Reservoir and Irwindale Booster Pump Station, has been inactive for over 20 years. Historically, when Well 3 and Well 4 were in operation, groundwater was pumped into the Irwindale Reservoir and then pumped up to the Gladstone Reservoir, which was a forebay for the Gladstone Booster Pump Station that pumped water into the Zone 1 system (see hydraulic schematic shown on Figure 5-2). The Gladstone Reservoir and Booster Pump Station have since been demolished.
Well 3 was constructed in 1923 and last operated in FY 1999-2000. Well 4 was constructed in 1920 and last operated in FY 1991-1992. Both wells ceased operation due to nitrate concentrations above the Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) of 10 milligrams per liter (mg/l). Perchlorate levels are also elevated in the groundwater.
In 2017, TVMWD evaluated the opportunity to increase groundwater supply for its member agencies and reduce the use of imported water. This evaluation focused on repurposing the City’s now inactive Wells 3 and 4 and considering other agencies that could be served water from these two wells. At the time, it was estimated that Wells 3 and 4 could pump approximately 4,250 gpm or 6,200 acre-feet per year based on historical pumping data. The study made several specific assumptions, some of which are no longer valid. These include the use of the Irwindale Pump Station, the 18” pipeline between the Irwindale Pump Station and Gladstone Reservoir, and Gladstone Booster Pump Station.
These facilities are no longer in use or have been demolished.
The City should consider Well 3, Well 4, and Well 7 (Vosburg) as potential future supply sources to provide redundancy and offset the cost of using treated imported water. The City is currently working with TVMWD on an updated study with the most current information. The updated study should be based on:
Constructing two (2) new wells to replace the existing Well 3 and Well 4, which are over 100 years old.
Abandonment of the existing Wells 3 and 4
Constructing a new nitrate and perchlorate treatment plant based on the most current water quality data
Constructing a new forebay reservoir
Constructing a new booster pump station to pump the effluent to the San Gabriel Plant Constructing a new discharge pipe to the San Gabriel Plant, utilizing rehabilitated portions of the existing Vosburg Well discharge pipe at the 210 Freeway crossing, as well as channel and railroad crossings. The existing 18-inch discharge line is abandoned due to its deteriorated condition and the Gladstone Reservoir has been demolished Constructing a standby generator with an automatic transfer switch to operate the facility during commercial power outages
Constructing a new well to replace Well 7 (Vosburg Well) Abandonment of Well 7
Constructing a new discharge pipe from the new Well 7 to the Irwindale Treatment Plant Cost estimates for the possible future well development and associated facilities are provided in Table 3-3 and 3-4. Table 3-4 includes a new well to replace Well 7 (Vosburg Well).

This project will allow utilization of the City’s full adjudicated water rights when the Pure Water Southern California Project (Pure Water Project) extension to the area is completed. The Pure Water Project is a regional recycled water program led by MWD that will provide up to 150 million gallons per day of treated Title 22 recycled water to the MWD service area from the Los Angeles County Sanitation District’s Joint Water Pollution Control Plant (JWPCP) located in Carson California. Figure 3-5 identifies the tentative alignment and quantities of recycled water that will be distributed throughout the MWD service area to select locations and basins.
Figure 3-5
MWD Pure Water Program
The Main Basin Water Master has indicated that up to 80,000 AFY of additional recharge into the Main Basin could be accepted. An additional benefit of this project is that it will increase the reliability of groundwater supplies and reduce the emergency storage needs for the system. Section 3-6.1.2 provides an overview of the Pure Water Project.
Current Grant/Loan Options for the City of Glendora:
1. County of Los Angeles Flood Control District’s (LACFCD) Safe Clean Water Program (SCWP): The LACFCD’s SCWP invests approximately $280 million annually into multibenefit stormwater capture projects and programs. The SCWP is designed to conserve billions of gallons of stormwater that would otherwise be lost to the ocean when it rains, and to do so in a manner that improves the livability and resilience of LA County’s communities through development of green space, recreational opportunities, and other enhancements. The SCWP strongly promotes regional collaboration, prioritizes investment in disadvantaged communities, and favors projects that employ nature-based elements.
As of January 2023, $670 million in Regional Program funding has been allocated to 101 projects, 14 scientific studies, 41 feasibility studies, and 12 watershed coordinators across the 9 watershed areas. This includes $530 million towards projects that benefit disadvantaged communities, and also leverages an additional $542 million from other funding sources.

available on the LACFCD’s online Stormwater Investment Plan tool (https://portal.safecleanwaterla.org/sip-tool/).
For the Regional Program, an annual Call for Projects is conducted to solicit project proposals, the fourth of which closed on July 31, 2022. The Municipal Program 40% local return is distributed annually to the 86 municipalities within the LACSD boundaries. This funding is utilized by the municipalities for development of their own local multi-benefit stormwater capture projects and programs and may be used to contribute to regional-scale projects.
2. State Water Resources Control Board Division of Financial Assistance, Proposition 1, Groundwater Grant Program (GWGP): Proposition 1 was passed by voters in November 2014 and provided $900 million for a Groundwater Sustainability Program (Assembly Bill 1471, Chapter 10). The SWRCB will administer $670 million to prevent and cleanup contamination of groundwater that serves (or has served) as a source of drinking water. The funds are available as grants.
The SWRCB adopted the Proposition 1 Groundwater Grant Program Guidelines (Guidelines) on May 18, 2016, and adopted amendments to the Guidelines on December 19, 2017 and February 2, 2021. Rounds 1 and 2 money for planning and implementation projects have been distributed. Round 3 project solicitations were due in late 2021 and preliminary awards were to be provided in Fall 2022 and grant agreement executions were to be in early 2023.
Round 4 is currently potential, but is based on the State of California budget which currently is in a deficit. If Round 4 is funded, then City of Glendora could apply for Planning or Implementation of the Irwindale Project depending on how SWRCB arranges Round 4 grants to be distributed.
3. Metropolitan Water District (MWD) Local Resource Program (LRP): MWD provides financial incentives for the development of water recycling, groundwater recovery, and seawater desalination projects. Projects can include water recycling, groundwater recovery, and seawater desalination.
There are three incentive payment options which includes:
1) Sliding scale incentives up to $340/AF over 25 years; 2) Sliding scale incentives up to $475/AF over 15 years, or 3) fixed incentive up to $305/AF over 25 years.
The City of Glendora can apply for MWD LRP funding for the Irwindale Project, but the application would be required to be submitted to MWD via TVMWD as the MWD member agency.
3-4.2 New Groundwater Wells
With the rising cost of MWD Tier 1 volumetric water, there is an increasing need to develop alternative water supplies and groundwater pumping capacity options. One such option is for the City to consider construction of additional groundwater wells to achieve the following objectives:

3-4.2.1 Maximize Groundwater Pumping Rights
Maximizing groundwater pumping rights is key to minimizing water supply costs. Groundwater pumping is traditionally the most cost-effective part of the City’s water supply portfolio. Currently, the City has the ability to pump their entire share of the adjudicated pumping rights (6,178 AFY at an OSY of 130,000 acre-feet) with an overall well capacity of 9,254 gpm or 14,927 AFY (see Table 5-3).
However, in future years when the Main Basin OSY rebounds to a higher level (e.g., 250,000 AFY), the City could be challenged to pump their entire adjudicated pumping right of 11,881 AFY.
When comparing adjudicated pumping cost of $192 per AF (2022/2023) in assessments plus operational costs (assumes $70 per AF for chemicals and energy) totaling $262 per AF to that of using imported water at a cost of $1,209 per AF (2023) there is a cost savings of approximately $947 per AF. For every 1,000 AF of adjudicated groundwater pumping recognized, there is a cost savings of approximately $947,000. The City’s ability to pump adjudicated groundwater during peak demand seasons is a critical component to maximizing its adjudicated pumping rights and minimizing water supply costs when considering unplanned outages due to mechanical failures, routine maintenance, water quality challenges and other unplanned events.
3-4.2.2 Pump 100% of Demands with Groundwater
With the stress on all water supplies throughout the Southern California region, it becomes critical for the City to be able to meet 100% of its demands to provide local water reliability to its customers.
The cost to pump beyond the City’s adjudicated water right is more expensive due to the Main Basin Replacement Water Assessment. The cost of pumping more than the adjudicated groundwater right is shown in Table 3-5.
Table 3-5
Pumping Costs above Adjudicated Water Right
While the cost of pumping above the adjudicated pumping water cost of $1,200 per AF is similar to that of imported water at a cost of $1,209 per AF, the City would have 100% water reliability being able to meet all of its water demands through a groundwater supply portfolio. Coupling this with a Cyclic Storage Program would assist in reducing water supply costs and provide the City with the ability to meet its customers’ demands when regional water supply constraint conditions occur. The City’s ability to use cyclic storage would assist in offsetting future imported water costs. Every 1,000 AF of cyclic storage used for the Replacement Water Assessment would result in approximately $60,000 in savings for the first year, assuming a 5% MWD rate increase. Subsequent years of cyclic storage use would save even greater amounts with additional MWD rate increases.
Development of a new groundwater well is a significant capital investment. The following planning guidelines are recommended for consideration in development of any future groundwater wells:
Properly locate in Main Basin to achieve high yield
Cost Description $/AF
1.Replacement Water Assessment (2023) $955
2.Resource Development Assessment (2023) $175
3.Pumping Costs (Chemicals & Energy)1 $70

Ensure acceptable groundwater quality to minimize additional treatment Equip well with automated controls for remote operation and monitoring to minimize labor and ensure high water quality performance
Allow two to three years for planning, design, construction, and project start-up.
Cost of new wells in the Southern California area vary depending on several factors (e.g., well depth, property costs, proximity to distribution system, on-site facilities, water quality, required treatment, automation complexity, etc.). An order of magnitude planning estimate is $6 million to $9 million excluding distribution system pipelines and storage. A new well that produces 2,000 gpm (3,226 AFY) with an amortization of 4% at 30 years would cost $108 to $161 per AF for a $6M to $9M well project, respectively.
3-5 Future Groundwater and Imported Water Availability
3-5.1 Groundwater
3-5.1.1 Main Basin Conditions
The Main Basin continues to be the region’s main water supply source for numerous retail agencies making up a majority of their supply source. Over the past several years, the Main Basin has experienced a reduction in groundwater levels due to decreased stormwater replenishment and longer lasting droughts. The Water Master estimates that local runoff used for groundwater replenishment has decreased over the last 10 years on average to about 55,000 acre-feet per year when compared to the historical 40-year average (years 1970 to 2010) of 111,000 acre-feet per year as illustrated on Figure 3-6.
This condition is further evidenced by the Key Well elevation being approximately 180 feet below mean sea level (see Figure 3-4). Even with the extensive conservation efforts put forth by retail agencies and resulting water demands trending downward since 2006 (see Figure 3-7), the Main Basin continues to struggle to maintain a Key Well elevation above 200 feet, which is the minimum goal of the Water Mater to allow higher OSYs.
As such, the Main Basin Water Master has taken proactive basin management actions in collaboration with Pumpers to address the replenishment shortfall and increase the overall health of the Main Basin as follows:
Implemented Resource Development Assessment to purchase additional untreated imported water when available;
Kept OSY low for eight consecutive years to increase replacement water demand; Increased cyclic storage with MWD for pre-delivery of 180,000 acre-feet over last 5 years; Encouraged Pumpers to purchase Cyclic Storage water to use for replacement water when overpumping occurs; and Participated in the development of the Pure Water Program to bring up to 80,000 acre-feet per year to the Main Basin

3-5.1.2 Cyclic Storage and Conjunctive Use Agreements
Cyclic Storage and Conjunctive Use Agreements allow the storage of untreated imported water in a groundwater basin to be used at a later time. The main difference between the two types of agreements is that the ownership of the water stored under a Conjunctive Use structure is by the imported water wholesaler (e.g., MWD) for use at such a time as they deem necessary and can be extracted and used for distribution, whereas, the water stored under a Cyclic Storage Agreement is pre-purchased by the Water Master or water wholesaler for storage in the basin with deliveries taken over a varying time period for long-term use to stay within the storage basin . The Water Master has implemented both types of storage programs within the Main Basin to support increased groundwater elevations and to assist Pumpers in offsetting cost for Replacement Water.
In 2017, the Water Master entered into a Cyclic Storage agreement with MWD and Upper District for the delivery of 80,000 acre-feet with payment to occur over the succeeding five year period. In 2019, the Water Master, along with area water wholesalers, extended the 2017 agreement for an additional 110,000 acre-feet of untreated imported water for storage into the basin. This cyclic storage water has been used by the Water Master for replacement water, resource development water, and overall Item #1. Page 104

basin replenishment. The Water Master is being proactive in procuring imported untreated replenishment water when it becomes available.
In 2019, the City entered into a Cyclic Storage agreement with the Water Master for 5,500 acre-feet.
As of December 2022, there was a balance of 39.42 acre-feet of water stored in the City’s cyclic storage account. The City has used this cyclic storage water to offset the cost for over-pumping of their adjudicated groundwater rights in various years. It is recommended that the City not only continue with this practice but increase its cyclic storage quantity to allow for over-pumping of their adjudicated groundwater rights for a minimum of a 3-year period to help offset MWD rate increases that will be imposed on water wholesalers and retailers over the next several years and provide 100% local reliability. While over-pumping adjudicated groundwater rights is a cost-effective strategy, the City does have physical limitations of over-pumping during peak demand periods (e.g., Summer and fall) and when groundwater basin levels drop resulting in less production yield from its various wells.
Thus, it is recommended that the City develop additional wells that would allow for maximum production during peak demand seasons and in hydro-geologically beneficial areas of the Basin where lower groundwater elevations would yield sufficient well production as recommended in Section 3-10.1
3-5.1.3 MWD Untreated Water Availability
MWD untreated water availability varies each year depending on several factors including availability of SWP Table A allocation levels, rainfall conditions, levels in MWD reservoirs and the drought conditions in Southern California. In times of challenging water supply and drought conditions, MWD has the ability to enact its Water Shortage Contingency Plan (WSCP), which has multiple tools to manage decreased water supplies. One of the primary tools is to enact its Water Supply Allocation Plan (WSAP) which has ten levels and can reduce water deliveries across its wholesalers’ base from 5 percent up to 50 percent. During the 2015 drought, MWD enacted the WSAP to manage its water supply deliveries across its wholesalers to provide equitable distribution to meet demands.
The SWP Table A allocation differs each year and also may change over the course of the year.
Beginning with an initial allocation that is based primarily on a conservative dry hydrology, current storage and releases to be made through the year to meet SWP contractual and regulatory obligations, the allocation may change over winter and through spring to reflect the actual and forecast water supply. Table 3-6 illustrates SWP Historical Table A, showing allocations from 1996 to the present.

more immediate treated imported water demands. The last ten year historical groundwater replenishment in the Main Basin is shown in Table 3-8.
Table 3-7
MWD IRP Forecasted Demands (AFY)
MWD untreated imported groundwater
replenishments have varied from a low of 13,371
acre-feet per year to a maximum of 99,265 acrefeet per year with an average of approximately 52,000 acre-feet per year.
The City is a sub-member agency of MWD through
their regional water wholesaler TVMWD. In fiscal
year 2020, approximately 10,849 acre-feet of
untreated imported water was delivered into the
Main Basin by TVMWD. This replenishment water
was a combination of cyclic storage and resource
development water.
The volatility of available MWD untreated imported
water will continue to be a challenge for MWD and
its member agencies. Other sources of
replenishment water are necessary, as such,
recycled water will need to become a significant
contributor to Main Basin replenishment to ensure
continued use of the City’s full adjudicated
groundwater pumping rights.
3-6 Potential for Recharge Using Recycled Water and Stormwater Capture The City does not currently have a recycled water program. The City has the potential to participate in recycled water development in multiple ways as follows:
3-6.1 Recycled Water
3-6.1.1 Direct Water Recycling
The City can participate in developing its own recycled water program via a) the scalping of wastewater flows from its sanitary sewer system; or 2) receiving water from LACSD’s San Jose Creek Water Reclamation Plant. Direct Water Recycling primarily focuses on providing recycled water for customer uses for irrigation or industrial manufacturing uses.

Wastewater Scalping: This approach would require the construction of a Title 22 treatment system and “Purple Pipe” distribution system to specific customers throughout its service area.
Typical customers would include irrigation for parks, schools and medians, industrial process water for commercial customers, and potentially groundwater recharge. Treatment technology would include either membrane bioreactors (MBR) or conventional treatment systems. An example of a recycled water scalping system, associated distribution purple pipeline and potential customers is shown on Figure 3-8.
Regional Distribution: This approach would receive water from LACSD’s San Jose Creek Water Reclamation Plant, which is located approximately 10 miles away. This would require the construction of a regional transmission main and local purple pipe distribution infrastructure as shown on Figure 3-8. The focus of this water recycling approach would be to primarily serve City customers with retail needs to offset imported water usage.
The City evaluated recycled water opportunities and determined that direct water recycling was not cost-effective to serve local customers due to the required dedicated infrastructure and the minimal effect on offsetting imported water demands.
3-6.1.2 Regional Recycled Water Recharge
MWD is developing a regional recycled water project titled Pure Water Southern California (Pure Water) in partnership with Los Angeles County Sanitation District (LACSD). This program will produce up to 150 mgd and provide groundwater recharge to several groundwater basins throughout Southern California. The Water Master indicates that up to 80,000 acre-feet per year of highly purified treated recycled water will be used to recharge the Main Basin. This recharge will significantly assist in restoring Main Basin water levels to allow Pumpers to more fully use their adjudicated water rights.
The project is currently in the environmental scoping and permitting process and is expected to be producing water as early as 2028.
3-6.2 Stormwater
Water supply availability continues to heighten the awareness and use of existing water supplies and the focus on developing new source water alternatives. Stormwater capture projects are being considered by agencies at a local level and regional basis as an additional water supply alternative.
Stormwater capture projects use local stormwater discharges that would normally be discharged to a river or ocean via city or county-maintained storm drain systems and instead use this water for groundwater replenishment in local groundwater basins, irrigation water at municipal/commercial sites, and other similar uses.
Various agencies have ventured into the stormwater capture arena with the development of local and regional projects. The Southern California Water Coalition (SCWC) published a 2018 whitepaper that assessed stormwater capture projects of varying magnitude across the Southern California region.
The goal of the SCWC whitepaper (Whitepaper) was to identify stormwater capture volumes, costs, benefits, and project performance across the region to better make future project decisions. The Whitepaper assessed 32 of the 54 identified stormwater capture projects of varying sizes from 6 agencies.

The Whitepaper categorizes stormwater projects into three main definitions as follows:
Centralized for Recharge: Projects which capture rainfall and stormwater runoff from natural and engineered drainage systems and stored in centralized facilities such as spreading basins and recharge basins for the managed replenishment of local groundwater basins. Distributed for Recharge: Projects which retain rainfall and stormwater runoff on site (at end user locations) to infiltrate into and replenish local groundwater basins. Examples of distributed recharge projects include green streets, park retrofits, permeable pavement and bio-swales.
Distributed for Direct Use: Projects which capture and store rainfall and stormwater runoff on site (at end user locations) which is then used to meet non-potable demands. Examples include stormwater capture using rain grading, tanks and cisterns, permeable pavement, and parkway basins. In some instances, stormwater capture for direct use may be used to meet potable demands as well.
The Whitepaper analysis determined that the cost and size of stormwater capture projects were core attributes in developing cost impactful projects. The cost of constructing and operating stormwater projects versus the stormwater yield captured is shown on Figure 3-9.
Figure 3-9
SCWP Unit Cost by Amount of Stormwater Captured
There are tremendous financial and institutional benefits to the larger Centralized for Recharge types of projects that produce an overall lower cost water supply. The overall findings of the Whitepaper analysis are as follows:
Capital costs totaled $132 million for the 32 projects Item #1. Page 112

Costs of the projects range from $59 per acre-foot to more than $250,000 per acre-foot Median costs for distributed projects are $25,000 per acre-foot and new centralized projects are $6,900 per acre-foot
The average stormwater captured for all 32 projects during the 11-year period was 13,400 AFY
The whitepaper analysis supports the findings of several local stormwater capture projects that have been completed or in process by local Los Angeles County municipalities.
In 2018, Los Angeles County voters passed Measure W to fund the Safe Clean Water Program (SCWP). The SCWP’s purpose is to provide regional direction to capturing stormwater to reduce reliance on imported water, provide enhanced water quality in stormwater discharges, and improve flood control management. The SCWP management is divided into nine watershed area steering committees that drive direction over regional projects. The City is part of the Upper San Gabriel Valley River Region. The SCWP is funded by a private parcel tax for properties within the Los Angeles County Flood Control District (LACFCD) service area. Fifty percent of funds are distributed proportionally to tax revenues collected for regional projects within that watershed region and forty percent are distributed directly to local municipalities proportional to tax revenues collected within their boundary.
Each year, participants of the SCWP file an annual report detailing the proposed projects they plan to implement. The City’s stormwater capture projects and proposed budget is summarized in Table 3-9.
Table 3-9
Proposed City Stormwater Capture Projects
The aforementioned projects primarily consist of distributed for recharge or direct use types of projects which will yield minimal recharge volume to the basin.
In consideration of the most cost-effective type of groundwater recharge project with maximum benefits to the City, the Pure Water Program will provide the greatest value to the City’s long-term water supply portfolio. Furthermore, this program is being developed at a rapid pace considering the size and span of the program, environmental processes, and stakeholders. It is recommended that the City support the Water Master’s efforts in developing this project to fruition.

3-7 Water Banking
Water Banking has become an additional water portfolio management tool for many western US states to address declining water supplies and increased costs of imported water. Water banking allows for the storage of surplus surface water in a groundwater basin for use at a later time. In concept, water banking appears to be a practical approach to enhancing and diversifying a water agency’s water supply portfolio. However, due to the Southern California geography, complicated water rights issues, groundwater basin management requirements, and the ability to physically take delivery of banked water, there are numerous complex and costly hurdles to overcome to be involved in water banking.
Water banking opportunities for Southern California occur mostly in the Kern County area at the southern tip of the central valley near Bakersfield California in the San Joaquin Valley’s Groundwater Basin (SJV Basin). It is estimated that the SJV Basin can store up to 10 million acre-feet with approximately 1.5 million acre-feet available to the Kern Water Bank.
Various agencies have formed water banking projects within the SJV Basin. The largest being the Kern Water Bank. The Kern Water Bank (KWB) consists of six core agencies operating under a Joint Powers Authority to store water from the Central Valley Project (CVP) and SWP. The water is primarily used to serve local agricultural and residential demands. However, several large California water agencies have also contracted with various members of the KWB to bank water for later recovery and use during dry years. For example, the Semitropic Water Storage District (SWSD), a KWB JPA member, stores up to one million acre-feet for several water agencies such as MWD. Being the largest storage partner, MWD has storage rights within the SJV Basin up to 350,000 acre-feet compared to the San Diego County Water Authority (SDCWA) which has storage rights up to 30,000 acre-feet. SWSD indicates that they are expanding their water banking capacity and are seeking additional partners.
Other Southern California water agencies have developed their own water banking storage facilities within the SJV Basin through land purchases, construction of spreading basins, and groundwater recovery facilities. SWP and CVP water is purchased from water right holders for water banking during available wet years. The capital investment in these facilities has been several million dollars over the past twenty years. Taking physical delivery of the banked water remains one of the most challenging hurdles to water banking.
Most Southern California agencies involved in water banking take delivery of the physical water through exchanges with MWD or a SWP Contractor. The other option is to wheel the physical water through the MWD transmission infrastructure and take physical delivery of the actual water. There are numerous MWD requirements in addition to wheeling costs involved in transferring physical banked water through MWD’s transmission system. The wheeling costs per MWD are based on a negotiated amount and at the discretion of the General Manager to determine if sufficient capacity exists within the MWD transmission system to wheel water during the desired time frame. Wheeling costs are also potentially subject to MWD Capacity and Readiness-to-Serve (RTS) charges.
Water banking can be a proactive way to ensure water supply reliability to the City. However, there is no guarantee that the banked water can be delivered in the time frame it is needed or at a reasonable cost. Water banking is a more robust long-term water supply portfolio management tool than a short-term tool. For example, in December 2021, MWD agreed to purchase 4,200 acre-feet Item #1. Page 114

of SDCWA banked water in the SWSD system for $983 per acre-feet. SDCWA purchased the banked water in 2008 for approximately $285 per acre-feet.
Water banking is not recommended as a short-term viable approach for the City given the numerous challenges associated with taking delivery of the banked water and the high costs. More immediate and local water supply reliability approaches are available (e.g., Pure Water Program groundwater recharge, cyclic storage purchases, etc.) to balancing the City’s long-term water supply portfolio than water banking. Should the City desire to proceed with water banking supply enhancements, it is recommended that the City engage a qualified consultant knowledgeable in water banking specifics to guide the City through the process of establishing a storage water bank. 3-8 Water Conservation and Rationing
3-8.1 Water Conservation
Water conservation has been at the forefront as an alternative water supply for several decades, helping communities meet increasing water demands while populations grow and businesses develop. The City, like many agencies across the country, have partnered with customers and regulatory agencies to find innovative ways to reduce water use while ensuring sufficient supplies and minimizing increasing costs.
In 1996, the City started its compliance roadmap of the State of California’s SB X7-7 law to achieve a reduction of 20% of its demands by 2020 or to achieve 95% of the
applicable state hydrologic region target as set forth in the State’s 20x2020 Water Conservation Plan. To
achieve 95% of the South Coast Hydrologic Region
target, the City’s 2020 target was established as shown in Table 3-10.
The City has not only achieved their 2015 interim SB X7-7 target goals, it has also achieved its 2020 ultimate target goals. The City’s extensive conservation efforts have been a core part in obtaining this performance.
The City’s exceptional water conservation performance achievements have been a result of its offering of a wide array of varying conservation programs. The residential conservation programs have included low flow fixture replacements, low-flow toilet retrofits, turf replacement, smart irrigation controller replacements, high efficiency clothes washer replacements, and rain barrel/cistern programs. Additionally, the City has instituted conservation rates that encourage customers to use less water based on a two-tiered volumetric system.
The commercial conservation programs have included low-flow toilet retrofits, commercial turf replacement, and replacement of traditional urinals with waterless urinals. The aforementioned programs have been essential in achieving each of the City’s SB X7-7 target compliance.
Like all new water supply development, these conservation efforts have come with a significant capital investment. Unlike traditional water supply projects that construct and operate tangible assets (e.g., treatment plants, wells, pipelines, reservoirs, etc.), water conservation typically has minimal to no tangible conventional assets, and as such, can be difficult to quantify its costs and impacts. A 2015 Pacific Institute study titled “The Cost of Alternative Water Supply and Efficiency Options in California” attempted to examine several years of conversation program costs across California and translate 2020 Target 2020 Actual

them into dollars per acre-feet savings. The following are costs associated with Residential Water Efficiency Measures:
Several of the traditional water conservation measures have a remarkable return on capital investment as shown in Table 3-11. For example, the cost of retrofitting residential toilets (3.5 gpf to
1.27 gpf) provides an overall relative cost savings in the long-term when considering the amount of water that is saved over the lifecycle of the toilet. However, when evaluating retrofitting toilets with more efficient flows (e.g., 1.6 gpf to 1.27 gpf) there is a large capital cost associated with this effort ranging from $1,200 to $4,600 per acre-feet. Similarly, the cost to perform landscape conversion at $5 per square foot has a larger per acre-feet cost than landscape conversion at $2 per square foot.
The difference between these two costs is a result of converting a fully healthy lawn with a low usage landscape versus a conversion of a lawn that had already perished and needed replacement.
Table 3-11
Cost of Alternative Water Supply and Efficiency Options in California (Residential)
Several of the same types of water conservation efforts used on the residential sector also have tremendous success in the commercial non-residential sector as shown in Table 3-12. Showerhead retrofits, clothes washer replacements, and landscape conversions (at $2 per square foot) have all yielded long-term cost savings and several thousands of potable acre-feet per year in increased water supply.
Water conservation has made significant contributions to increasing water supply for a growing population. However, there are continuing challenges associated with water conservation efforts as follows:
A. Market Penetration: Water conservation efforts have been ongoing for several decades. While water conservation has had significant impacts in freeing up additional water supply for growth, much of the traditional water conservation efforts have been implemented across the City as a result of excellent outreach and regulatory changes in the plumbing codes. As such, it is increasingly more difficult to achieve that next level of water conservation savings without tremendous impacts to costs and customers’ standards of living.

Table 3-12
Cost of Alternative Water Supply and Efficiency Options in California (Non-Residential)
B. Wastewater Impacts: While there have been extensive efforts put into water conservation efforts on the potable water use arena, there has been minimal effort put into the impacts water conservation has had on wastewater management. While water conservation has achieved significant water savings, this has resulted in increased operational challenges in wastewater treatment, conveyance costs and recycled water costs. Older wastewater treatment and conveyance systems were designed for a minimum of 100 to 125 gallons per capita per day (gpcd). When compared to the proposed State of California indoor wastewater discharge goals of 55 gpcd by 2025 and 52.5 gpcd by 2030, this presents operational challenges in additional treatment costs (e.g., more energy, chemicals, and labor). In some instances, entire infrastructure has had to be replaced to accommodate lower wastewater flows. Much of the older sewer infrastructure was originally designed for 2 feet per second velocities and now must be designed for 3 to 4 feet per second to achieve the same cleansing velocity with lower sewer flows, thus, requiring more lift stations and associated pumping and energy costs.
C. Cost: The development of additional water supplies is traditionally more costly than existing sources. Similarly, the same is true for water conservation efforts. The City has achieved remarkable success in implementing water conservation. However, the next level of water conservation will require innovation and will be more costly than the traditional water conservation efforts recognized to date as the existing market reaches maturity and full market penetration with traditional devices.

Water conservation continues to play a core part of the City’s water supply portfolio. Moving forward, water conservation programs will continue to be offered. However, as these traditional water conservation efforts are reaching implementation maturity, there will be less additional water savings recognized from this part of the water supply portfolio. Additionally, increased water conservation results in an impact to future recycled water production. 3-8.2 Water Rationing
On June 1, 2022, the City implemented Stage 3 of its Water Shortage Contingency Plan (WSCP).
The primary objective of Stage 3 is to reduce water use by 20 percent. Glendora’s average use is 150 gpcpd. Therefore, Stage 3 requires each resident to reduce water usage by about 30 gpcpd to comply.
The WSCP Stage 3 mandatory restrictions include the following:
Outdoor watering is restricted between 8 am- 5 pm
• Watering limited to 3 days per week
• Watering limited to 5 minutes per station.
• Irrigation systems with drip irrigation are given an exception for an additional 15 minutes as long as there is no runoff.
No washing down sidewalks or driveways.
No excessive runoff from landscape irrigation that causes water flow onto an adjoining sidewalk, driveway, street, alley, or gutter.
No outdoor watering during and 48 hours following measurable rainfall. No washing motor vehicles with a hose, unless the hose is fitted with a shut-off nozzle.
ADDITIONAL RESTRICTIONS: FOR BUSINESSES
Restaurants, cafes, and bars can only serve water to customers upon request. Hotels and motels must display a notice providing guests with the option of choosing not to have towels and linens laundered daily.
While MWD implemented a water shortage emergency in April 2022 for all SWP dependent member agencies, it has yet to enact its Water Supply Allocation Plan. SWP dependent member agencies have been mandated to restrict watering to one day per week. TVMWD is part of the MWD water shortage emergency, restricting water usage to one day per week. Thus, the MWD conservation mandates override the City’s WSCP limiting water to 3 days per week.
Implementation of the WSCP and associated water rationing will continue until such time that the State declares the drought is over and sufficient rainfall and stormwater capture has occurred to replenish local water supplies. Additional WSCP levels and mandatory restrictions could also be implemented should the drought persist and available water supplies become even more restricted. 3-9 Main Basin Water Rights Purchases
The City’s most cost-effective water supply is its groundwater pumping from the Main Basin. As discussed in Section 3-2, maximizing the City’s Main Basin groundwater pumping rights is critical to Item #1. Page 118

ensuring local water reliability. With a prescriptive right of 4.75261 percent, acquiring additional Main Basin groundwater rights would help ensure continued water reliability at a more cost-effective rate then using imported water supplies.
There are a total of 78 entities with pumping rights within the Main Basin. Sixty-eight (68) Pumpers have a total groundwater right of 76.46119 percent and 10 Integrated Pumpers have a total groundwater right of 23.53881 percent. The largest users (e.g., > 1%) of each category are shown in Table 3-13.
Table 3-13
Largest Main Basin Groundwater Rights Users
Sixteen (16) of the sixty-eight (68) Pumpers make up 67.22364 percent and eight (8) of the ten (10) Integrated Pumpers make up 23.45507 percent of the Main Basin groundwater pumping rights for a total of twenty-six (26) Pumpers holding 90.67871 percent of total Main Basin groundwater pumping rights. Thus, 9.32129 percent of groundwater pumping rights are held by fifty-two (52) smaller and mostly non-municipal entities. In 2016, the City was successful in securing additional groundwater rights from Monrovia Nursery Company and CV Santa Rosa Investments for a total addition of 194 acre-feet.
With an OSY of 130,000 acre-feet, there is approximately 12,118 acre-feet available from nonmunicipal Pumpers that could have an interest in selling these groundwater rights as they become available, or these entities decide they no longer have a need for them. A one percent acquisition of additional groundwater pumping rights would yield an additional 1,300 to 2,500 acre-feet per year with an OSY of 130,000 to 250,000 acre-feet OSY, respectively.

It is recommended that the City actively engage these smaller groundwater right entities to gauge their interest in selling their Main Basin rights.
3-10 Recommendations
Water supply reliability is a critical component to the City’s future water portfolio. Managing all the integrated parts of this portfolio will establish the most cost-effective approach to ensuring reliable service to the customers. The following are recommendations for the City to consider in implementing the City’s future water supply portfolio combined with the other sections of this Master Plan. 3-10.1 Construct Groundwater Wells
Construction of additional groundwater wells will allow the City to meet current and future demands that take into account future development projects, accessory dwelling units, unforeseen outages, maintenance issues, and increased water reliability. Construction of new wells will also allow the City to pump 100% of their demands during regionally challenged water supply restrictions. Construction of new wells should follow the general criteria outlined in Section 3-4. 3-10.2 Support Groundwater Projects that Increase Main Basin Operating Safe Yield Support of projects that increase the Main Basin OSY will result in greater pumping rights availability to the City. Projects the City should consider include the MWD Pure Water Program that will provide significant recharge of the Main Basin of up to 80,000 acre-feet per year using purified recycled water.
Other projects for consideration include local stormwater capture projects that result in recharge of the Main Basin in significant quantities.
3-10.3 Maximize Cyclic Storage to Offset Imported Water Cost Maximizing the City’s cyclic storage account will assist in offsetting increased imported water costs.
It is recommended that the City purchase a minimum of 3-years of supplemental untreated imported water to store in their cyclic storage account to offset future MWD imported water rate increases.
This approach will allow the City to over pump groundwater and replace it with cyclic storage water purchased in prior years, thus, minimizing the need to take more expensive imported water that experiences a rate increase of approximately 5% per year on average. It should be noted that while using cyclic storage is a cost-effective strategy, the City does have physical pumping limitations during peak demand periods (e.g., Summer and fall) and when groundwater basin levels drop resulting in less production yield from its various wells. Thus, it is critical for the City to develop additional well pumping capacity to recognize the benefits of cyclic storage and full groundwater pumping rights during high demand seasons.
3-10.4 Conduct Updated Study of Well 3, Well 4, and Well 7 It is recommended that the City continue to consider replacing Well 3, Well 4, and Well 7 (Vosburg) as potential future supply sources to provide redundancy and offset the cost of using treated imported water. The City is currently working with TVMWD on an updated study with the most current information.
3-10.5 Continue Implementing Water Conservation Measures to Reduce Water Demands It is recommended the City continue to work with its customers to ensure mandatory conservation restrictions are implemented and conservation rebates are readily available.

3-10.6 Pursue the Purchase of Additional Main Basin Groundwater Rights It is recommended that the City reach out to the non-municipal Main Basin Groundwater right holders to gage their interest in selling their groundwater rights. A one percent increase in groundwater rights will result in an additional 1,300 AFY to 2,500 AFY. This effort could result in a significant cost savings to the City each year in regards to the water budget.
3-10.7 Actively Participate in TVMWD and Main Basin Water Policy Decisions The City’s active involvement in regional policy decisions will help minimize future water rate increases. The Water Master determines each year how much replenishment water will be purchased and spread and the associated assessment costs. The City’s input into this process will allow collaboration on future rate increases, setting of OSY levels, and assessment policies that are implemented that result in lower costs to Basin Pumpers.

WATER USE
4-1 Historical Annual Water Use
The City of Glendora’s total annual water production and purchase from 2012 to 2021, shown in Figure 4-1 and Table 4-1, ranged from 9,288 AFY to 13,156 AFY. The Governor declared a State of Emergency in January 2014 due to severe drought conditions in California. As a result, water conservation measures were implemented and the City’s water demand began to decline due to its customers conscientious water conservation efforts. The drought emergency declaration was lifted in April 2017. However, California soon fell back into drought conditions in 2018 and 2020-2021. In the last five years, the demands have rebounded slightly, but not to the same level as it had once been in the early 2010’s. Over the past five years, the total production and purchase has stayed relatively steady and averaged about 10,390 AFY (9.28 mgd).

4-2 Non-Revenue Water
As with most water providers, the City typically produces/purchases more water than the total quantity measured by the customer meters. The difference between production/purchase and water billing data is considered non-revenue water. The City calculates and reports non-revenue water to the Department of Water Resources each year. The non-revenue water ranged from 853 AFY in FY 2020-2021 to 1604 AFY in FY 2016-2017 as shown in Table 4-2. The discrepancy is typically due to the differences in the accuracies of the few large meters which measure purchases and production, and the
thousands of small customer meters which measure sales.
Non-revenue water can also be due to unmeasured uses
such as fire flows, water main flushing and other
maintenance related tasks. The remainder may be due to
leaks from the system. The City’s annual non-revenue water has been declining over the base five years. Since 2018- 2019, the non-revenue water percentage has been within
industry standard (10 percent or less). It is assumed that as the City completes more and more replacement of pipe, this will reduce the number of water line breaks each year and possible undetected leaks, which in turn will reduce the nonrevenue water volume. 4-3 Water Demand Variations
Demand variations through a year are influenced by seasonal effects such as temperature, humidity, and precipitation. System demand variations throughout a day are influenced by the customer base and the daily lifestyles of the customers. In primarily residential areas, the peak demands within a day typically occur in the morning hours between 6:00 am and 9:00 am, when customers wake to begin their daily routine, with a secondary peak occurring in the evening. In largely commercial and industrial areas, the peaks may occur mid-day or the demand may even remain relatively constant throughout the workday. For this study, the variations are expressed as a ratio to the average demand, with the average demand being equal to one.
4-3.1 Monthly Demand Variations
Typical of most Southern California communities, the City’s water consumption exhibits a distinct seasonal pattern. Peak and low monthly consumption occur during the dry summer months and wet winter months, respectively. Historic monthly production data was used to analyze monthly demand variations. The monthly demand factors are shown in Table 4-3. The highest water use typically occurs in July or August. The lowest water use typically occurs in December thru March. The highest and lowest monthly demand factors were found to be 1.82 and 0.44, respectively. A graph of the historic monthly demand factors (monthly demand/average monthly demand) is illustrated on Figure 4-2.

Monthly Demand Factors (2012-2021)
4-3.2 Daily Demand Variations
Within any given month, demand can vary based on usage patterns (i.e., weekend usage is typically different than weekdays) and other factors such as irrigation schedules. The maximum demand day occurring over the course of the year is an important parameter for planning purposes as required source of supply is based on this demand. The maximum daily demand for 2021 was determined to be about 12.19 mgd when the data was extracted from the City’s Advanced Metering Instrumentation (AMI) system data. Adjusted up to production values (production was about 9.3% higher than billing data in August 2021), the maximum daily demand is estimated to be 13.27 mgd. 4-3.3 Hourly Demand Variations
Knowledge of accurate demand variations over a 24-hour period is essential for proper analysis of water systems. For this study, hourly demand variations were represented by the development of diurnal demand curves for various hydraulic zones. The diurnal demand curves were employed in determining the adequacy of the sources of supply, pumping facilities, reservoirs, and the transmission/distribution facilities.
The hourly water usage for various zones was determined based upon data collected from the City’s SCADA system from May 26, 2022 through June 16, 2022. The facility flow meters, pump flows, and water levels in the reservoirs were utilized in calculating the demands and demand factors in 5-minute

4-4 Existing System Demands and Peaking Factors
It is important to evaluate a water system during various incremental peak demands. Typically, a water system is designed to meet the maximum demands placed on it. The system components must be designed to provide these demands as they occur. Maximum month and maximum day demands are important factors in determining a system’s supply capability. Maximum day demands usually dictate the design criteria for both system transmission, storage needs, and pump capacity requirements. Peak hour criterion is a measure of the system’s overall adequacy with respect to its transmission and distribution elements, as well as its operational storage capacity. The City of Glendora’s water system demands utilized in this study are shown in Table 4-4.
The City’s existing water demands must be established in order to evaluate the current status of the water system infrastructure with respect to pump capacities, storage requirements, pipe velocities and system pressure. The demand estimates used in this study are shown in Table 4-5 by zone.

Water System Demands and Peaking Factors
Minimum Month Demand - The minimum month peaking factor was determined from the City’s annual production and purchase records from 2012 through 2021 and is estimated as 0.44 times the average month demand. This demand typically occurs in winter months and is estimated at 2,835 gpm (4.08 mgd).
Average Day Demand - The existing system average day demand (ADD) is based on the City’s average daily production and purchase data for the last five years (2017 through 2021). The average day demand is 6,442 gpm (9.28 mgd).
Maximum Month Demand - The maximum month peaking factor was determined from the City’s annual production and purchase records from 2012 through 2021 and is estimated as 1.40 times the average month demand. This demand typically occurs in winter months and is estimated at 9,019 gpm (12.99 mgd).
Maximum Day Demand - Daily AMI data was provided for August 2021. The highest demand seen was 12.19 mgd occurred on August 2, 2021. This number was increased to 13.32 mgd account for system losses. The percentage increase was calculated by comparing the total production data to the total billing data for the month of August 2021. The maximum day demand factor for 2021 was calculated to be 1.43.
The maximum day demand (MDD) factor for this Master Plan Study was conservatively set at 1.50 for planning purposes. Therefore, the MDD is estimated at 9,664 gpm (13.92 mgd).
Peak Hour Demand – Modeled peak hour demands were based upon the diurnal demand curves illustrated on Figure 4-3. The overall peak hour system demand is estimated to be 2.61 times the average day demand or 16,828 gpm (24.23 mgd). This factor varies by zone depending on the diurnal curve.

Water unit demand factors were developed from billing data (January 2020 – December 2021) and associated land use information. It is assumed that this water use represents some bounce-back from the end of the drought and thus it is believed to be representative of post-drought or more “normal” conditions.
The proposed potable water unit demand factors are shown in Table 4-6. These demand factors can be used to estimate future development water use if more detailed information is not available. gpm mgd gpm mgd gpm mgd gpm mgd gpm mgd

WATER USE
CITY OF GLENDORA 4-12 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
Typically, indoor water use is about 70 gpcd. In order to meet the SB606 and AB1668 requirements, the City’s residents need to reduce their water use by about 17.5 gpcd (70 gpcd – 52.5 gpcd) by 2030. The total reduction citywide would therefore be about 797,140 gpd. 4-6.3 Accessory Dwelling Units
In California, the housing production has not kept pace with the population growth for the last decade.
The lack of housing has impacted affordability and caused the average housing cost to rise significantly. Accessory dwelling units (ADUs) provide an alternative to the traditional housing type.
ADUs are significantly less expensive to build and offer benefits that address common development barriers such as affordability and environmental quality. ADUs are constructed on parcels with existing or proposed housing so they don’t require new land, dedicated parking, or other costly infrastructure.
New policies that went into effect January 1, 2020 are making ADUs even more affordable to build, in part by limiting the development impact fees and relaxing zoning requirements are as follows:
1. AB 68: A long and detailed bill covering multiple ADU rule changes including permitting adding ADUs and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs) to single family properties
2. SB 13: Includes a provision to prohibit a local agency from imposing an owner-occupant requirement for an ADU or main residence until 7/25/22.
3. AB 670: Mandates that neither Home Owners Associations (HOAs) nor property Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions (CC&R) can reasonably prohibit development of an ADU or JADU.
4. AB 881: Includes provisions to permit ADUs in multi-family dwelling structures.
5. AB 587: Permits ADUs to be sold separately from primary residence if the property was developed by a qualified non-profit corporation and certain affordable housing requirements are met for the ADU sale.
6. AB 671: Requires local agencies to include a plan that incentives and promotes the creation of ADUs that can be offered at affordable rent in its housing element.
California Senate Bill 9 (SB9) became law January 1, 2022. It amended Section 66452.6 and added Sections 65852.21 and 66411.7 of the California Government Code relating to land use and subdivisions. SB 9 provides two new pathways for homeowners to create additional dwelling units:
subdivide a single family lot and build up to two residential units on each or add residential units on lots that are not split. Under SB 9, local agencies must ministerially approve applications without discretionary review.
There are currently 11,312 single family residential water meters in the system. The City approved 33 ADUs (0.29% of total single family units) in 2021 and 31 ADUs (0.27% of total single family units) in 2022, respectively. Although, currently the number of ADUs are a small percentage of the total, it is expected that the number of ADUs will continue to trend upwards and increase in subsequent years.
The City is anticipating that between now and 2030, a maximum of 1,000 new residential dwelling units will be built, including ADUs. This means that the City is expecting a maximum of about 8.8 percent of the total 11,213 single family parcels to construct an ADU.

WATER USE
CITY OF GLENDORA 4-13 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
For planning purposes, the future demand increase due to ADUs can be estimated depending on the percentage of single family parcels that are assumed to add an ADU in the future. If an average ADU has an occupancy of two people, the total ADU demand would be estimated at about 105 gpd (2 x 52.5 gpcd). Possible demand increases are calculated as follows:
1. If 10% of the total 11,312 single family parcels add an ADU = 1,131 ADUs Additional demand = 1,131 ADU x 105 gpd/ADU = 118,755 gpd =133 AFY
2. If 20% of the total 11,312 single family parcels add an ADU = 2,262 ADUs Additional demand = 2,262 ADU x 105 gpd/ADU = 237,510 gpd = 266 AFY
3. If 30% of the total 11,312 single family parcels add an ADU = 3,394 ADUs Additional demand = 3,394 ADU x 105 gpd/ADU = 356,370 gpd = 399 AFY The City’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) estimated an increase in population from 45,551 in 2020 to 48,093 in 2045 per SCAG data. The residential demands are expected to increase from 7,864 AFY in 2020 to 8,301 AFY in 2045. This is an increase of 437 AFY or 390,000 gpd.
Based on the aforementioned ADU demand estimates and 2020 UWMP demand projections, it is reasonable to assume that the indoor water reduction (797,140 gpd +/-) will exceed the demand increase expected due to future ADUs (118,755 gpd to 356,370 gpd) or the projected increase in population (390,000 gpd).
4-7 Water Conservation
At the time of this report writing, California was in its third consecutive year of severe drought and the state continued its emergency regulations to safeguard the remaining water supplies. The City of Glendora therefore implemented Stage 3 of its Water Shortage Contingency Plan. Stage 3 went into effect June 1, 2022 with the primary objective of reducing water consumption by 20% from 2020. To meet the 20% goal, water customers are asked to reduce water usage by 30 gallons per person, per day. The following restriction apply to all water customers:
1. No watering between 8 AM and 5 PM (Monday – Sunday)
a. Watering limited to 3 days per week
b. Watering limited to 5 minutes per station. Irrigation systems with drip irrigation are given an exception for an additional 15 minutes as long as there is no runoff
2. No washing down sidewalks or driveways
3. No excessive runoff from landscape irrigation that causes water to flow onto an adjoining sidewalk, driveway, street, alley, or gutter.
4. No excessive runoff from landscape irrigation that causes water to flow onto an adjoining sidewalk, driveway, street, alley, or gutter.
5. No outdoor watering during and 48 hours following measurable fainfall
6. No washing motor vehicles with a hose, unless the hose is fitted with a shut-off nozzle.
7. 20% water reduction (30 gallons per person, per day_
8. Restaurants, cafes, and bars can only serve water to customers upon request Item #1. Page 134

6-2 Source of Supply
Any potable water system should be capable of meeting all demands imposed upon it. This can be achieved through multiple supply sources, storage, or a combination of both. Generally, the determination is based upon supply availability, existing storage capacity, and cost. It is prudent to secure water supplies from multiple sources so that demands can be met at reasonable levels when one or more water sources are not available.
California Code of Regulations Related to Drinking Water require a minimum source of supply to meet the service area’s maximum day demand. Additionally, since the City serves more than 1,000 meters, the system must be capable of providing four hours of peak hourly demand through a combination of source capacity, storage capacity, and emergency source capacity.
The City’s water supply is a combination of local groundwater and imported water. Whenever possible, the City plans to supply the system with 100 percent groundwater in the future. Therefore, although imported water is available, it would be prudent for the source of supply criterion to be met solely by the City’s groundwater well capacity.
The criterion for source of supply is to provide one maximum day demand (MDD). Water from storage reservoirs will be utilized to regulate hourly fluctuations in demand (operational storage) and to provide fire flow demand (fire suppression storage). This allows the City the ability to operate their system independently in the event that the imported water service is disrupted for an extended period of time.
Imported water will be utilized to supplement the groundwater supply if multiple wells are out of operation for maintenance or in an emergency. It is highly unlikely that all the City’s wells would be out of service at one time, but it is recommended that wells be equipped with permanent generators or portable generator connections. One maximum day demand (MDD) of imported water capacity is more than sufficient.
6-3 Storage
For a water system, three categories of storage are of importance: operational, emergency, and fire suppression. The system is evaluated to determine its ability to meet established storage criteria, anticipated to be met with reservoir capacity and groundwater supplies. 6-3.1 Operational Storage
Operational storage serves to equalize variations in sources of supply and demand over short periods of time (daily or weekly). Utilizing the daily demand hydrograph, the component of operational storage accounts for the difference in supply and demand.
In order to calculate the operational storage need, the total well capacity or supply was plotted against the maximum day demand curve as shown on Figure 6-1. The difference between the two curves is the amount of operational storage expected to be needed on a daily basis.
The well capacity of 7,154 gpm is based on the largest capacity well (Well 12) being out of service.
The maximum day demand (MDD) is 9,213 gpm or 13.27 mgd. The operational storage needed is calculated to be 3.9 million gallons. This is about 28.5 percent of the maximum day demand.
Therefore, for planning purposes, the operational storage criteria is conservatively set at 30 percent of the maximum day demand.

6-3.2 Emergency Storage
Emergency storage is used in the event of an interruption in the primary water supply source. It is assumed that most outages can be mitigated within 7 days. Accordingly, many agencies that depend solely on imported water utilize 7 average days of storage as their emergency storage criterion. It is reasonable to expect that groundwater sources will be available during an outage of the imported water supply. Therefore, the required emergency storage volumes may typically be reduced by an agency’s groundwater supply capacity.
The City of Glendora’s emergency storage volume can be reduced by the actual production capacity of its wells. The only requirement would be that the facilities be capable of pumping the water needed during an emergency from the wells to the higher zones. Since the City’s well capacity of 7,545 gpm exceeds the existing average day demand (6,442 gpm), the emergency storage criteria is set to one average day demand.
Operational and fire storage shall be available for each individual zone while emergency storage shall be available system-wide. Again, the only the requirement is that the facilities are capable of moving the water needed during an emergency, from the location of the storage to all other zones. 6-3.3 Fire Suppression Storage
Fire suppression storage, shown in Table 6-1, is the volume required to supply the service area with the required fire flows, which range from 1,500 gpm to 4,000 gpm for a duration of two (2) to four (4) hours. The greatest volume required for fire suppression storage is 0.96 MG. 6-4 Wells
New wells should be designed in accordance with the Water Well Standards: State of California Bulletin 74-81 and Bulletin 74-90 (supplement to Bulletin 74-81) and their updates, the most-recent American Water Works Association (AWWA) standard A -100, State Water Resources Control Board, Orange County County Health Care Services, and sound engineering judgment.
The pumps should be placed low enough so that subsequent lowering should not be necessary. All well screens should be below the pump intake to preclude cascading of water into the well casing even with the lowest expected pumping water level. The casing diameter shall be at least 4 inches larger than the largest pump bowl/column pipe dimension, and maximum velocity shall not exceed 5 feet per second (fps). Total screen area should be sized to maintain a velocity of less than 0.1 fps at the maximum anticipated flow. Additionally, the casings diameters should be selected to allow lining the wells in the future without losing capacity. The use of higher grade materials, such as stainless steel, should be considered to increase the useful life of all future wells.
The well design should include a 4-inch diameter camera tube extending to below the pump suction elevation, a sounding tube, a separate air line with a depth gauge and an air connection and depth to water transducer. Flow meters, high and low discharge pressure switches, pressure gauges and transducers, and telemetry equipment should be included to continuously monitor the wells.
Permanent emergency generators with automatic transfer switches should be considered at each future well site. At minimum, new sites should include manual transfer switched and portable generator connections. Soft start bypass should be provided for each variable frequency drive so that a pump can be operated when its variable frequency drive (VFD) is out of service.

6-5 Booster Pump Stations
For open zones with sufficient fire demand storage, the pump capacity into the zone must meet the maximum day demands for the zone itself and any other zones it provides water to. Well supply and imported water directly supplying the zone can be included in the pump capacity.
For open zones that do not have sufficient fire demand storage, the pump capacity into the zone must meet maximum day plus fire demands for the zone itself as well as any zones it provides water to.
Well supply and imported water directly supplying the zone can be included in the pump capacity.
For closed zones, the pump capacity into the zone must meet maximum day plus fire demands or peak hour demands, whichever is greater. A separate fire pump can be installed to meet the fire flow requirements.
Preliminary design reports (PDR) should be developed prior to the design and construction of a new pump station or an upgrade to a pump station. At a minimum, the PDR should address pump station location, system hydraulics, demands and pressures, pump selections, design criteria, equipment selection, construction issues, cost estimates, and scheduling. The pump station firm capacity, number of pumps, and type of pumps should also be evaluated and determined during the development of the PDR.
All future booster pump stations must incorporate a standby pump of the same size as the largest duty pump. This ensures that there is a replacement for the largest duty pump during maximum day demand conditions, while one of the pumps at the station is being repaired or replaced. It typically takes pump manufacturers 12 to 16 weeks for delivery of a new pump and motor unit once the order is placed and shop drawings are approved.
The pump stations should be equipped with modern pump controllers, flow meters, suction and discharge pressure gauges, high and low discharge pressure switches, low suction pressure switch, proper isolation valves, and telemetry equipment. Flow meters and pressure gauges are essential tools for monitoring pump performance and demand conditions in the service area. Telemetry equipment is used to remotely monitor the status of the facility, and notify personnel in the event of a failure.
Pump stations should be constructed of fireproof materials and provided with peripheral sprinkler systems to prevent fire damage. Furthermore, power to the pump stations should be provided through underground service to minimize possibility of damage during fires. Pump stations with electric motors should be equipped with standby generators and automatic transfer switches to operate them during commercial power outages.
6-6 System Pressures
Most water utilities set 60 to 80 pounds per square inch (psi) as the average static pressure throughout the system. The water system shall also be capable of maintaining a minimum residual pressure of 40 psi during the peak hour demand. A residual pressure of 20 psi must be maintained at the fire hydrant outlet in developed areas during maximum day demand plus fire flow conditions (Re: California Regulations Related to Drinking Water, Chapter 16, Section 64602).
Static pressures should not exceed 80 psi, except where system operating conditions and geographical conditions warrant a higher pressure. In areas where pressures exceed 80 psi, the Uniform Plumbing Code requires customers to install “an approved type pressure regulator preceded by an adequate strainer” on their service connections to protect domestic plumbing and water heaters.

6-7 Transmission and Distribution System Pipelines
The distribution system shall be sized and designed to provide redundant service at adequate pressures for normal use as well as at fire flow conditions. In most cases, this can be accomplished by looping the system. Looping through easements or other areas which are not easily accessible shall be avoided. Provisions shall be made for supplying a service zone from at least two sources, where feasible.
In order to maintain adequate system pressures and prolong the life of the system pipes, flow velocities shall be limited. The system should operate at velocities of 1 to 3 feet per second (fps) normally, with a maximum velocity of 7 fps during intermittent peak flows. The pipe velocity during maximum day plus fire flow demands should not exceed 10 fps.
All new and replacement mains should be constructed with a minimum diameter of 8-inches, except 6-inch pipe can be used past the last fire hydrant at a dead-end. The existing pipes must be sized to provide adequate fire flows at the required hydrant outlet pressure of 20 psi while the maximum velocity criteria is not exceeded under maximum day plus fire flow demand conditions. These pipe size recommendations should be adhered to for all new design and construction projects, as well as any waterline replacement/upgrade projects.
6-8 Fire Suppression
The City of Glendora has adopted the California Fire Code, 2019 Edition per the Glendora, California Municipal Code Section 18.04.010. The fire flow requirements used for this study are therefore based upon the requirements of the California Fire Code (2019).
Table 6-2 is a summary of the selected fire flow and hydrant location criteria for the various land uses within the service area. These requirements were established as performance evaluation criteria and used in developing system improvement recommendations.
Table 6-2
Fire Flow and Fire Hydrant Location Criteria
For specific future development planning and design, the criteria should be adjusted on a case by case basis per the latest California Fire Code. The requirements in the California Fire Code are specific to each building on a given parcel of land and based on several factors, including land use, building construction methods and materials, and whether or not automatic sprinklers are present.
These specific requirements are shown in Table 6-3.

6-9 Service Life of Facilities
All facilities have useful lives for which relatively trouble-free service can be expected. Once exceeded, these facilities become less reliable, expensive to maintain and are subject to failure.
Therefore, facility age is considered in the assessment of all water systems and in formulating future replacement projects.
The determination of the useful life is dependent upon multiple considerations. Table 6-4 shows the useful lives that are generally accepted as prudent planning criteria. They shall be one of the considerations in determining the phasing of facility replacement.

SECTION 7
HYDRAULIC MODEL
7-1 General
A computer model of the City’s water system was developed in the Innovyze InfowaterPro software platform. It was utilized to aid in the evaluation of the adequacy of the existing facilities under the current and future supply and demand conditions.
Generally, the model development steps included the following:
1. Utilize the City’s existing hydraulic model which was updated in 2017 as the basis for the model geometry
2. Update pipeline geometry through review of as-built plans, atlas sheets and discussions with engineering and operations staff
3. Verify and complete pipe information (pressure zone, diameter, length, roughness)
4. Verify and complete junction information (pressure zone, elevations)
5. Add detailed facility data (wells, pump stations, reservoirs, and imported water connections)
6. Add facility information (dimensions and water level for tanks, pump curves for booster pumps and wells, and aquifer levels for well pump suction levels)
7. Determine and assign demands to model junctions
8. Develop and assign diurnal demand curves to model junctions
9. Assign controls to facilities (pump start and stop conditions, imported water connection settings)
The City’s existing hydraulic model was used as the basis of the geometry of the model. As-built plans were used to add the pipes constructed since the model was last updated in 2017. Water system facilities (reservoirs, pump stations, wells, and connections) were added to the model based on as-built construction plans and provided facility information, such as pump curves, efficiency tests, ground water levels, and operational controls.
The model includes the potable water pipelines that are owned by the City. Water service laterals are not included. Modeling information associated with each pipe includes diameter, length, and roughness factor. Other pipe information included in the model database are year of installation, pressure zone, pipe material, as-built plan reference file, and tract name. Modeling information associated with each junction includes ground elevation, water demand, and diurnal pattern of demand. Model junction elevations were obtained from publicly available 2015-2016 LARIAC Lidar DEM data for the Los Angeles Region.
7-2 Demand Distribution
7-2.1 Existing Demands
The City provided water billing data with coordinates for each service meter. The meter locations were plotted in GIS and service laterals were created to connect the meter points to the mainline within the associated pressure zone. This enabled each water meter and its demand to be assigned to the closest model junction ID

CITY OF GLENDORA 7-2 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
The existing demand distribution was based upon water meter data provided for January 2020 through December 2021. After the demands were loaded onto model junctions, they were adjusted so that the total demand matched the existing water production estimates (see Table 4-3) for all analysis scenarios (average day, maximum day, etc.). This method of distributing demands inherently accounted for any high water users within the existing service area as well as non-revenue water.
The water demands are assigned to the following database fields within the model:
Demand Type 1: Residential – Single Family
Demand Type 2: Residential - Multi
Demand Type 3: Future Customers
Demand Type 4: Commercial
Demand Type 5: Irrigation
Demand Type 6: Government
Demand Type 7: Golf
Demand Type 8: Undetermined (User Type “#NA” in consumption data) Demand Type 9: Institution
Demand Type 10: High Water Users
While these land-use based demand types were not utilized in the current analysis, they were assigned to separate demand categories within the model so that future analyses might be able to make use of the information.
7-2.2 Future Demands
The future demands were calculated individually for known planned future developments, based on land uses and water demand factors shown in Table 4-6. The calculated demands, shown in Table 4-7, were then input manually into the model at appropriate model junctions. 7-3 Diurnal Curves
The developed diurnal demand curves discussed in Section 4-3.3 were specified at each node. 7-4 Model Scenarios
The accuracy of the hydraulic model for the existing system was verified during the calibration process, as described in Section 8 of this report. Within the model software, new data sets and query sets were created to represent different operating conditions.
Data sets change as conditions in each scenario need to be changed. For example, separate demand sets were created to represent the various demand conditions. Separate control sets were created to define the initial status and controls of facilities. The data sets associated with each scenario are shown in Table 7-1 and Table 7-2.

CITY OF GLENDORA 7-4 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
The following scenarios were created:
1. Model Calibration Day Scenario (CALIBRATION)
2. Existing Average Day Demand Scenario (EXISTING_AVGDAY)
3. Existing Maximum Day Demand Scenario (EXISTING_MAXDAY).
4. Existing Maximum Day Fire flow Global (FF_EX_MAXDAY)
5. Existing Maximum Day Fire flow using multiple hydrants (FF_MUTI_EX_MAXDAY) This scenario was utilized for running fire flow analysis at multiple fire hydrants at the same time in select areas where the analysis didn’t meet the fire criteria using just one hydrant.
6. Existing Maximum Day Fire flow using multiple hydrants including hydraulic improvements (IMPROVE_FF_EX_MAXDAY)
7. Future Maximum Day Demand Scenario (FUT_MAXDAY)
8. Future Minimum Day Demand Scenario (FUT_MINDAY)
The aforementioned scenarios were used to evaluate system performance with respect to pressures, pipe velocities, and fire flow availability. The system analysis and results are described in Section 9 7-5 Facility Model Characteristics and Control Settings 7-5.1 Storage Reservoirs
All active storage reservoirs are included in the hydraulic model. The reservoirs are designated as “tanks” because they have a known finite volume and water surface levels that change with time as water flows into or out of them. (Note the model software defines “reservoirs” as sources of water that remain at a constant water level irrespective of the flow. They have an unlimited volume and are generally used to represent a lake or other inexhaustible supply source.) The storage reservoir characteristics input in the model are shown in Table 7-3. For reference, the previously used reservoir names are included in the model as information in the Description field. 7-5.2 Wells
The City’s water system currently has eight (8) active wells. Four are located at the San Gabriel facility in the City of Azusa. Four are located within the system and pump water to the City’s water yard which is the site of the Sierra Madre and Goddard Reservoirs (Zone 1). The normal operation control settings of the wells are shown in Table 7-4.
Groundwater levels at the wells were represented in the model by constant level, unlimited capacity reservoirs. The groundwater levels were based on the June 2022 groundwater level readings. The groundwater levels were adjusted in the model to reach a more accurate match in terms of discharge pressure, flow, and system pressure.
7-5.3 Booster Pump Stations
The booster pump station control settings are shown in Table 7-5. These controls were developed by reviewing SCADA data, as well as interviews with City operations staff.

Table 7-6
Imported Water Connection Controls
7-6 Friction Factors
The pipeline friction factors used in the hydraulic model are shown in Table 7-7. Other factors that affect the pipe roughness coefficient include the number of connections to the pipe, the quality of construction, and the number of bends and tees. A direct correlation between pipe age and material has not clearly been defined at the time of this study. It has often been found that the pipe roughness coefficient depends heavily on the corrosiveness of the water conveyed and pipe velocities.

SECTION 8
MODEL CALIBRATION
8-1 General
The existing water system model was calibrated to verify the accuracy of the model, system configuration, and the hydraulic parameters utilized. The general calibration methodology was to gather as much system information as possible from available SCADA system data and pressure and reservoir level measuring equipment temporarily installed in the field. This information was then used for input into the model as well as comparison of model and field results. Typical indicators of an accurate model include the following:
Pressure differences of five (5) percent or less
Well and booster pump station flow differences of five (5) percent or less Reservoir level differences of 1 foot or less
8-2 Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) Data Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) information was collected from May 25, 2022 through June 15, 2022 and used in calibrating the 24-hour extended period simulation. The following data was provided in 1 minute intervals.
Reservoirs - water levels
Well Pumps - flows
Booster Pumps – flows
Imported Water Connections – flows
Pressures:
a. Hicrest Booster Pump Station discharge pressure
b. San Gabriel Booster Pump Station discharge pressure
c. Silent Ranch Booster Pump Station suction and discharge pressures d. Eagle Ridge Booster Pump Station suction and discharge pressures e. Englewild Booster Pump B13 discharge pressure
8-3 Field Collected Data
In addition to the data available via the SCADA system, pressure data was collected in the field by installing pressure data loggers on twenty-eight (28) fire hydrants during the calibration period. The selected locations were scattered throughout the service area, as shown on Figure 8-1, in order to obtain representative pressure measurements in each pressure zone. Some locations were specifically selected near pump stations where pressures were not collected through the SCADA system.
The Englewild Canyon Reservoir levels are currently not collected in SCADA. Therefore, a water level data logger was installed in one of the reservoirs to record reservoir levels during the calibration period.

MODEL CALIBRATION
CITY OF GLENDORA 8-3 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
Pump station flows throughout Glendora’s water system are not recorded in the SCADA system. For the calibration period, Meter Master equipment was installed on select flow meters at the following locations:
Englewild Booster Pump Station, flow meter for Pump B10 Hidden Springs Booster Pump Station, combined meter for Pumps B11 and B12 Glencoe Booster Pump Station, combined meter for Pumps B26 and B27 North Grand Booster Pump Station, flow meter for Pump B41 Hook Canyon Booster Pump Station, flow meter for Pump B52 Hook Canyon Booster Pump Station, flow meter for Pump B53 Englewild Canyon Booster Pump Station, combined meter for Pumps B47 and B48 It was requested that Pump B14 at the Englewild Booster Pump Station not be operated during normal system demands, because there isn’t any power at the site to connect Meter Master equipment and monitor the flows through the pump. It was also requested that City staff log daily flows at pump stations during the calibration period. Flow logs were provided for Hook Canyon, Hidden Springs, Englewild, Eagle Ridge, and North Grand Booster Pump Stations. 8-4 Calibration Period
The calibration period, the time period in which SCADA data and pressure data was collected in the field, was from May 25, 2022 to June 15, 2022. A 24-hour period was selected to represent normal demand and operating conditions during the calibration period. “Normal conditions” means that there were no noticeable anomalies and/or significant variation in the flows and pressures that could indicate an unusual event such as a fire or a main break. The calibration day was selected to be June 7, 2022.
8-5 Demand Allocation
Demand allocation for the calibration scenario was based on the average distribution represented by the water billing data during the period January 2020 through December 2021. The demands were globally adjusted to match the total average daily supply entering the system (well flow + imported water flow +/- water from reservoirs) during the calibration period. 8-6 Zonal Diurnal Curves
Diurnal patterns were created for the major zones (i.e. Zone 1, Zone 2, and Zone 3). The smaller zones that are supplied water by Zones 1, 2, and 3 were included in the calculation of the overall diurnal pattern for that zone.
Water usage within each zone were determined based upon data collected from the City’s SCADA system during the calibration period. The flow from the wells, pump stations, and imported water connections, and water levels in the reservoir were utilized in calculating the total amount of water used in each zone in 15-minute increments.
The three major zonal diurnal demand curves, shown on Figure 8-2, are grouped as follows:
1. The demands in Zone 1, 1A, 1B, and 1BH1 are grouped and assigned the same diurnal demand curve.

2. The demands in Zone 2, 2H1, and 2H2 are grouped and assigned the same diurnal demand curve.
3. The demands in Zone 3, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3C1, 3D, 4, and 4A are grouped and assigned the same diurnal demand curve.
Figure 8-2
Diurnal Demand Curves
High water users (HWUs), listed in Table 8-1, were identified based on monthly billing data for June 2021. Some customers in smaller zones that account for a large percentage of the water use within the zone were also identified. The water use of these customers were removed from the diurnal pattern calculations and then individual diurnal patterns were developed for each of these customers using the City’s Advanced Metering Instrumentation (AMI) data.
The AMI data for customers in Zone 1RA and Zone 1RB was utilized to develop separate diurnal patterns for those two small zones.

8-7 Wells
The City records static water levels and pumping water levels monthly at each well. The groundwater elevation at each well was calculated by subtracting the pumping water level from the ground surface elevation and input into the hydraulic model. The well flows for the calibration period are shown in Appendix 8-1.
For most wells, an on/off pattern was used to turn the well on and off by time and the adjusted pump curves for each well were utilized to determine the flows. For Well 5 and Well 12, a flow pattern was used to simulate the actual flow produced from these wells during calibration period. This is due to the fact that the model cannot simulate the VFD controls of these wells, hindering the ability to use controls or on/off patterns to calibrate these facilities.

An additional loss was added to the discharge of Well 10 to match calibration day flow values. 8-8 Imported Water Connections
Imported water connections were not utilized during the calibration period, therefore remained off in the calibration model simulation.
8-9 Booster Pump Stations
Booster Pump Stations were set up similar to the wells for the calibration scenario. Pumps were given specified on/off times in the model and utilized the adjusted pump curves were utilized to determine the flows. Because of model limitations, San Gabriel Pump 3 is controlled with a flow pattern based on discussion with City Staff about how this pump is generally operated with the other San Gabriel pumps. The pump station flows for the calibration period are shown in Appendix 8-2.
City staff reports that the valves downstream of the Country Club Pump Stations are throttled to increase the head so that the pumps run more efficiently. The throttled valves are accounted for in the model as a loss on the pipes just downstream of each pump to obtain the desired flows and discharge pressures.
The Morgan Ranch Booster Pump Station does not have a flow meter so the pumped flows could not be measured in the field. The pump curves were adjusted in the model to pump a flow amount that made the water levels in the Lower Gordon Reservoirs match as closely as possible with SCADA data.
Hydropneumatic system pumps use pressure head controls provided by the City to turn on at the low pressure settings and off at the high pressure settings as follows:
Silent Ranch Booster Pumps (Zone 1BH1) – high pressure 110 psi, low pressure 45 psi Rainbow Booster Pumps (Zone 2H1) – high pressure 50 psi, low pressure 15 psi Eagle Ridge Booster Pumps (Zone 2H2) – high pressure 90 psi, low pressure 80 psi The following pumps were not in use during the calibration period:

8-10 Reservoirs
The initial reservoir levels were set to match those of the initial calibration period (June 7, 2022). The reservoir levels for the calibration period are shown in Appendix 8-3. The comparison of SCADA data versus model data is shown on each figure. Most reservoir levels in Zone 1, Zone 2, and Zone 3 were within 1 foot throughout the calibration period which is evidence of a well calibrated model. 8-10.1 Country Club Reservoir Levels
The Country Club Reservoirs A (0.688 MG) and Country Club B (0.688 MG) water levels did not always match within 1 foot. The levels matched relatively well for the first six hours of the simulation (See Figure 8-3 and 8-4). At about six in the morning, the Country Club Pump Station turned on (See Figure 8-5 and 8-6) and this is when the reservoir levels start to diverge. In reality, water fills the Country Club Reservoirs six feet over the next 18 hours. In the model, the water is not able to get to the reservoirs due to the pipe sizes and distance from the Country Club Booster Pump Station.
Amelia Pump Station is close to the Country Club Reservoirs but SCADA confirmed that this pump station was not on during the calibration period. It was not providing water to Zone 2.

Figure 8-6
The Country Club Reservoir A and B are both 0.688 MG tanks located on the far southeast side of Zone 2. The model is not able to get enough water into the reservoirs. AKM tried to determine the reason for the discrepancy in the reservoir levels recorded in the field versus the model predicted reservoir levels. Typically, a discrepancy like this might be due to incorrect demands, diurnal patterns, reservoir dimensions or elevations, system pipe sizes and connectivity, and/or unknown closed or partially closed valves in the system. All of these possibilities were explored.
Since the Zone 1 and Zone 3 reservoir levels match well and the Zone 2 and Zone 3 booster pump flows match well, it is believed that the demands and diurnal patterns are accurate. The model is predicting higher reservoir levels than the field data showed at the Country Club Reservoirs. One possibility explored was if a major transmission line was missing from the system mapping. City staff reviewed the system pipes and sizes and could not identify any errors. It is still possible that there are some incorrect pipe sizes or connectivity issues within the mapping of the system. The City is currently in the process of developing a detailed Water GIS of the entire system. It is recommended that the hydraulic model be updated after the completion of the Water GIS and the model be recalibrated.
It was also noted that Hidden Springs Reservoirs A (3.5 MG) and B (1.25 MG) have higher water levels in the model than the field collected data (See Figure 8-7 and Figure 8-8). The difference is not extreme because the reservoirs are large in volume. But it is possible that the model is conveying water to the Hidden Springs Reservoirs instead of the Country Club Reservoirs due to incorrect pipe geometry and connectivity.

8-10.2 Glencoe Reservoir Levels
Additional losses were added near the Glencoe Reservoirs to match levels compared to SCADA.
After interviews with City Operations staff, it was verified that these pipes are old and could be corroded or have partially closed valves, adding to the normal losses through the distribution system pipes.
8-10.3 Reservoir Levels of Small Upper Zones
Zones 1A, 1B, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 4, and 4A have smaller demands and smaller reservoirs. This makes the development of a diurnal pattern specific to the zone much more difficult because the calculations need to be more precise. The exact time and flow from the pump stations and the exact changes in the reservoir levels are needed to calculate the demands at every desired time step.
For this study, an attempt was made to develop specific diurnal patterns for all the smaller zones.
Many times, the calculations resulted in negative demands which means water entering the zone but not being used. In reality, all demands should be positive when calculating a diurnal pattern. Since specific diurnal patterns could not be developed for each of the small zones, the areas were considered a part of the larger zone that supplies water to it and the same diurnal pattern used in the larger zone was applied to the small zone. The hydraulic zones were grouped as follows for developing the diurnal patterns used in this Master Plan Study:
1. Zone 1, Zone 1A, Zone 1B, and Zone 1BH1
2. Zone 2, Zone 2H1, and Zone 2H2
3. Zone 3, Zone 3A, Zone 3B, Zone 3C, Zone 3C1, Zone 3D, Zone 4, and Zone 4A For the recommended hydraulic studies (see Section 9) in the smaller zones, the following is recommended prior to the studies so that a specific diurnal pattern can be developed for each zone and so the hydraulic model can be refined/calibrated for the study zone:
1. Collect AMI data for the zone in small time intervals (5 minutes or less) for the study period
2. Calibrate flow meters
3. Ensure that flow meters are hooked up to the SCADA system and flows can be recorded in small time intervals (5 minutes or less) for the study period
4. Calibrate water level sensors
5. Ensure that the water levels in reservoirs can be recorded in the SCADA at small changes in water levels and at the exact times that they occur for the study period 8-10.4 San Gabriel Reservoir Levels
The well flows and San Gabriel Booster Pump Station flows were matched in the model as close as possible to the SCADA data provided. When this was done, the San Gabriel Reservoir levels did not match well. The levels in the model are not maintained as shown on Figure 8-9. It seems as if the well supply is insufficient. Well 8 flows ramp up in the model, trying to compensate for the low supply but it is still not enough. It is recommended that the well flow meters and reservoir level sensors be tested and/or calibrated to determine the discrepancy.

8-12 Fire Hydrant Testing
Fire hydrant flow tests were conducted at six (6) locations on June 9, 2022. The sites were selected to help further calibrate the model. The fire hydrant flow test locations were chosen near five (5) of the twenty-eight (28) portable pressure data loggers, described in Section 8-3, and then one additional site was chosen where new loggers were installed. The loggers recorded the static pressure and residual pressure once the nearby hydrants were opened. The six (6) hydrant test locations are shown on Figure 8-10.
Following the hydrant flow tests, the recorded field flow rates were applied to the model calibration scenario at the time of day in which the hydrant test was performed. A comparison of the recorded flows and pressures and the model results and corresponding recommendations are included in Table 8-3.
The pressure drop (difference between static and residual pressure at the nearby hydrant) was used for comparison purposes to verify the model. The pressure drop comparison is slightly skewed at each location because the model does not include the fire hydrant laterals. Other potential factors that may contribute to the differences in results include: corrosion in fire hydrant laterals, partially closed valves at the hydrants or in the system, inaccurate model node elevations versus actual field elevations, and inaccuracies in the hydrant testing equipment.
Test location 4 data is suspect. The static pressure at the nearby hydrant was recorded as 73.2 psi.
The pressure at the test hydrant and in the model is in the vicinity of 100 psi. The nearby hydrant is actually lower in elevation than the test hydrant, so the pressure should be higher than 100 psi. It is possible that the hydrant valve was not fully opened during the flow test. This test data was therefore not considered in verifying the calibration of the model.
The difference in pressure drop between the field data and model data was less than 4 psi at all hydrant testing locations except for test location 4 which was disregarded. This difference is within acceptable limits for a well calibrated hydraulic model.

SECTION 9
SYSTEM HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
9-1 General
The established performance evaluation criteria (Section 6) and the calibrated hydraulic model were utilized in analyzing the system and evaluating its adequacy. The system model was calibrated by simulating actual system conditions and adjusting the model (Section 8). The model was then utilized to analyze the existing system under average day, maximum day, peak hour, and maximum day plus fire flow conditions. Analysis of the City’s source of supply, storage, and pumping facilities were also conducted (Sections 9-2 to 9-4).
Existing and future system deficiencies were identified and mitigation projects were formulated based upon the results of the model runs, the facility analysis, and input from City staff. Proposed projects were added in the hydraulic model to test the operation of the system after implementation. The results of the analyses were used in formulating the capital improvement program (Section 12). 9-2 Source of Supply
The criterion established requires the City’s source of supply to be equal to one maximum day demand, For the City of Glendora, this means that under current demand conditions, the City should have an existing source of supply capacity of 9,215 gpm (13.27 mgd). In the future, with increased demands, the City should have a source supply capacity of 9,361 gpm (13.48 mgd).
The City’s groundwater supply is shown in Table 9-1. Using design capacities, the total supply is 11,800 gpm which exceeds the existing and future source of supply requirement. Using the current capacities based off of recent efficiency tests, the total supply is 9,254 gpm which just meets the existing requirement. The City currently does often meet the maximum day demands by utilizing one of the imported water connections (PM-18/Amelia BPS).
The imported water connections have a total capacity of 19,434 gpm as shown in Table 9-2, which exceeds the existing and future source of supply requirement. These connections are primarily planned to be utilized during peak demand periods and emergencies.

9-3 Storage
9-3.1 Operational Storage Criteria
The City’s operational storage criteria is set at 25 percent of the maximum day demand. 9-3.2 Emergency Storage Criteria
The City’s emergency storage criteria is set at one average day demand. For a system that depends mostly on groundwater supplies, this amount of emergency storage is adequate and is primarily for response in operations due to a loss of a major source of supply. 9-3.3 Fire Suppression Storage
Fire suppression storage is the volume required to supply the service area with the required fire flows, which range from 1,500 gpm for a duration of two (2) hours to 4,000 gpm for a duration of four (4) hours. The maximum fire suppression storage required in any of the City’s hydraulic zones is 0.96 million gallons.
9-3.4 Storage Analysis
The storage analysis by hydraulic zone and system wide is illustrated in Table 9-3. The existing available storage for each zone is calculated by adding the effective volume of each reservoir, utilizing the high water level and an assumption of a minimum water level of five feet in each reservoir.
The system overall has a surplus of 1.447 million gallons of storage. The following observations are made about the storage of each zone:
1. Zone 1, 1RA, & 1RB has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 3.37 MG.
2. Zone 1A has a storage deficit of 0.062 MG.
3. Zone 1B & 1BH1 has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 0.055 MG.
4. Zone 2, 2H1, & 2H2 has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 1.628 MG.
5. Zone 3 has sufficient storage with a calculated storage surplus of 2.117 MG.
6. Zone 3A has a storage deficit of 0.100 MG.
7. Zone 3B has a storage deficit of 0.302 MG.
8. Zone 3C & 3C1 has a storage deficit of 0.285 MG.
9. Zone 3D has a storage deficit of 0.281 MG.
10. Zone 4 has a storage deficit of 0.087 MG.
11. Zone 4A has a storage deficit of 0.133 MG.
The zones with storage deficits are primarily zones in the higher elevations of the service area with small demands. The fire suppression storage criteria is the dominant portion of the total required storage. It is often infeasible to construct larger storage tanks in these zones. It is therefore recommended that hydraulic studies and preliminary design studies be conducted to determine if fire flow pumps and/or larger capacity pumps can be installed at the pump stations that provide water to these zones.

Table 9-3
Storage Analysis
The existing available storage system wide is estimated at 24.428 MG. The future average day and maximum day demands are estimated at 9.385 MG and 14.078 MG, respectively. In the event of an extreme emergency, without any well supply or imported water supply, the water system would be able to provide water to customers for about 2.6 average demand days or 1.7 maximum demand days. If an emergency is expected to last any longer, the customers would have to cut back on water use until supply sources can be implemented again.

9-4 Pumping and Supply Analysis by Hydraulic Zone
The pumping and supply analysis by hydraulic zone is shown in Table 9-4.
For open zones with sufficient fire demand storage, the pump capacity into the zone must meet the maximum day demands for the zone itself and any other zones it provides water to. Well supply and imported water directly supplying the zone can be included in the pump capacity. This criteria applies to the pump capacity into Zone 1, 2, and 3 because there is plenty of storage in the reservoirs in these zones. The pump capacity meets the criteria of one maximum day demand for Zone 1, 2, and
3. For open zones that do not have sufficient fire demand storage, the pump capacity into the zone must meet maximum day plus fire demands for the zone itself as well as any zones it provides water to.
Well supply and imported water directly supplying the zone can be included in the pump capacity.
This criteria applies to the pump capacity into Zone 1A, 1B, 3A, 3B, 3C, 3D, 4, and 4A. The pump capacity does not meet the criteria of maximum day plus fire demand for any of these zones.
For closed zones, the pump capacity into the zone must meet maximum day plus fire demands or peak hour demands, whichever is greater. A separate fire pump can be installed to meet the fire flow requirements. This criteria applies to the pump capacity into Zone 1BH1, 2H1, and 2H2. The pump capacity does not meet the criteria of maximum day plus fire demand for any of these zones.
The zones that do not meet the pumping capacity criteria are the zones with low daily demands.
These zones generally do not have large reservoirs because the demands are low. It would be difficult to turn over the water in a large reservoir on a daily basis with such low demands. Water would become stagnant and water quality would degrade.
In all of the zones that do not meet the pumping capacity criteria, the pumping capacity into the zone exceeds the maximum day demands of the service zone. The fire flow demand is the dominant portion of the required pumping capacity. In lieu of constructing more and/or larger storage reservoirs in these zones, it is recommended that hydraulic studies and preliminary design studies be conducted to determine if fire flow pumps and/or larger capacity pumps can be installed at the pump station that provide water to these zones. These studies go hand in hand with the studies recommended for zones with storage deficits.

9-5 System Pressures and Velocities
The hydraulic model was utilized to analyze the existing and future system under various demand conditions.
9-5.1 System Pressures
The minimum and maximum system pressures in each zone are summarized in Table 9-5.
Table 9-5
System Pressures
The maximum pressures throughout the system are shown graphically on Figure 9-1. Service pressures exceed 80 psi (maximum pressure allowed per the plumbing code without a pressure regulator) throughout the system. City staff reports that all services in these areas of high pressures have pressure regulators installed.
9-5.2 System Velocities
The maximum velocities in the distribution pipes are shown on Figure 9-2. There is just one location in the system that experiences a maximum velocity between 7 and 8 feet. This is within the 24-inch pipe downstream of the San Gabriel Booster Pump Station. Although the velocity is predicted by the model to exceed the criteria, the exceedance is very minimal and therefore it is not believed to be a major issue. No action is recommended.

SYSTEM HYDRAULIC ANALYSIS
CITY OF GLENDORA 9-9 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
9-6 Fire Flow Analysis
The fire flow analysis was conducted utilizing the existing maximum day demand scenario. Fire flow demands, listed in Table 6-1, were applied at all fire hydrant locations in the model. If the fire node was located near multiple land use types, the highest fire flow demand was utilized.
The fire flow criterion requires a residual pressure of 20 psi at the fire hydrant outlet. Since the City’s hydraulic model only includes the location of the hydrant connection with the mainline and not the hydrant itself, a residual pressure of 26 psi is utilized for analysis purposes. It is estimated that there will be about 6 psi loss from the water main, through a typical 6-inch hydrant lateral to the fire hydrant outlet. Initially, the fire flow simulation is run globally and the entire fire flow demand is applied to a fire hydrant connection. This initially identifies the areas with low residual pressures as shown on Figure 9-3.
In reality, firefighting often takes place by using multiple fire hydrants with each providing approximately 1,000 gpm to 1,200 gpm of flow. Therefore, the next step in the analysis was to apply fire flow demand to multiple hydrants in the areas identified with low residual pressures and rerun the analysis. Often, the system was then able to meet the fire flow demands and provide the minimum residual pressure of 26 psi at the fire hydrant connection point.
If the residual pressure criteria was still not met utilizing multiple hydrants in a certain area, improvement recommendations were developed, which either include a pipe size increase, pipe looping, and/or addition or relocation of fire hydrants. There are areas where fire flows can be increased if the hydrant is connected to a larger pipe or a pipe in an upper zone, located nearby.
The fire flow improvement locations are shown on Plate 9-1. Detailed descriptions of the recommended improvements are provided in Table 9-6.
9-7 Additional Hydraulic Improvement Recommendations
Additional hydraulic improvements are recommended based on staff interviews:
1. Looping of pipes in Zone 3D (Bluebird Reservoirs and PS) to improve hydraulics and fire flow availability.
2. Extension of pipes in North Glendora Avenue in Zone 3A for future customers.
3. A connection at Bennet Avenue and Parkview Terrace to improve hydraulics and fire flow availability.
The additional improvement locations are shown on Plate 9-1.

Detailed hydraulic study recommended for the Zone 3 homes, located along Wildwood Canyon, with low system pressures. Conduct an investigation of the pressures experienced at the existing properties and what fire flow is available to each property (i.e. private hydropneumatic systems). If additional homes are being considered by the City/developers, a booster pump station may be needed adjacent the Country Club Reservoirs to provide future supply and fire protection. Another option may be a future connection to the City of San Dimas system when the development along Brasada Lane is completed.

9-8 Water Age Analysis
The water age analysis was conducted utilizing the existing average day demand scenario for a 90 day period. Water age in the reservoirs is shown in Table 9-8. Generally, a water age of 7 days or less is desired. Mixers can help in reducing water age and improving water quality and have been recommended for several reservoirs. Newly constructed reservoirs should include mixers in the future.

Table 9-8 (continued)
Water Age Scenario Model Results
The water age throughout the system is depicted on Figure 9-4. Generally, Zone 1 has the lowest water age (1 to 5 days) in the system because the source of supply is constantly providing water directly into Zone 1. The area of Zone 1 south of the 210 Freeway has higher water age than the rest of the zone, ranging from 5 to 10 days. Water age in the higher zones generally range up to 15 days.
Water age in Zone 3C and 3C1 exceeds 15 days due to minimal demands.
The highest water age is seen in the model at endpoints in the system (i.e. stubouts, cul-de sacs, areas without looping, etc.) or in areas where there was no demand placed in the hydraulic model.
This happened when for instance, there was a master meter for a development but the demand could only be placed in the model at one location. In reality, there are several services pulling water from the system at different locations. If individual services were all to be modeled, the water age analysis results would be different.
Another instance is when the service lateral was not located close to the end of the pipe on a cul-de sac. In this case the demand was placed at the next model node and no demand was placed at the actual end point of the pipe. If the demand was placed at the end of the pipe, the water age analysis results would be different and likely water age would be similar to the surrounding model nodes.

CITY OF GLENDORA 10-1 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
SECTION 10
PIPE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
10-1 General
According to the 2021 Drinking Water Report Card, developed by the American Society of Civil Engineers, the national average break rate ranged between 10 breaks per 100 miles of pipe per year to 37 breaks per 100 miles of pipe per year.
The break records show that the City of Glendora’s (City) water system has experienced about 225 breaks per year between 2017 and 2021. This equates to 107 breaks per year per 100 miles of pipe (225 breaks / 2.1 hundred miles of pipe), which is much greater than the national average.
Based on a review of the City’s as-built plans from the last 10 years, the City has been replacing an average of 10,300 feet of pipe annually (1% of the total system). It is recommended that the City continue implementing an annual pipe replacement program to reduce the number of water breaks each year.
For this Master Plan study, the recommended pipe replacement program was developed based on historical breaks and leak records, a risk assessment, problematic areas identified by City staff, and critical facility (hospitals, police stations, fire stations, etc) locations. These project recommendations were developed independently of the hydraulic analyses described in Section 9. 10-2 Risk Assessment
Risk assessments have become more important as the average age of infrastructure in Southern California has increased and more breaks have occurred. The Water Research Foundation describes the main objectives of an effective risk assessment as one that includes:
1. Reduction in the number and cost of failures, by identifying high-risk assets and enabling costeffective, targeted, proactive remedies
2. Extension of the useful life of assets, by distinguishing those that are merely old from those that are truly impaired
3. Reduction in uncertainties, enabling confident answers to question from the public and others Risk relates to the probability of something bad happening, or the likelihood of a negative impact occurring, and over time, a water distribution system will experience water breaks or leaks. These failures in a water system can be caused by multiple factors such as pipe age, pipe material, pipe bedding, water characteristics, external loads (from traffic or soils), soil characteristics, and/or weather. Some of the primary goals of a water utility are to prevent catastrophic failures from occurring, address breaks and leaks as quickly as possible, and continue to provide reliable and safe water to its customers while minimizing disruptions to service.
Risk is the combination of both Likelihood of Failure (LoF) and Consequence of Failure (CoF). It takes into account the asset’s physical condition, as well as the impact that its failure would have on system performance. LoF refers to the probability of failure based on the pipe features, surrounding area attributes, and historical pipe break data. CoF is the combination of direct and indirect impacts on the vicinity and community due to a potential asset failure.
The pipeline risk assessment includes an evaluation of various elements that affect the LoF and CoF.

PIPE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
CITY OF GLENDORA 10-2 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
Artificial intelligence, machine learning (AI-ML) technology was used to calculate the LoF for the pipeline risk assessment. Contracted by AKM, Fracta provided the software as a service (SaaS) solution to develop the LoF scores.
The CoF elements were modeled in the Fracta online platform, using the widely accepted triple bottom line (TBL) framework, which is a method that categorizes the consequence of failure as social, economic, and environmental factors.
10-3 Likelihood of Failure (LoF)
The City’s risk assessment was developed using artificial intelligence, machine learning (AI-ML) technology to develop LoF scores. The main goal was to prioritize the likelihood of the system pipes to fail by using historical failure patterns (break data), surrounding area attributes (environmental and demographics), and pipe features (size, material, and year of construction). This data was embedded into the Fracta LoF module, which is a complex AI based and ML algorithm that uses historical and geospatial data to calculate LoF scores for the system pipes. The LoF score is a percentage that predicts which pipe segments will have the highest risk of breaking in the upcoming 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, and 5 years.
10-3.1 Pipe Asset Data
The pipe asset data was developed from the pipe geometry included from the previous hydraulic model prepared in 2017. The geometry was updated with current as-built plans. The pipe diameter, material, length and year of installation were imported into Fracta’s AI-ML LoF module. Where the pipe material and/or year of installation information was missing, the Fracta proprietary imputation algorithm was used to fill in the missing data, primarily using the adjacent pipe data. 10-3.2 Global Data
In addition to the pipe asset data from the City’s geodatabase, the AI-ML LoF module incorporates global variables to perform the LoF analysis, including but not limited to roads, soil type, trains, population density, built density, distance from water, precipitation, and temperature. Fracta obtains this data from Federal, State, and other public sources/agencies such as U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), and the U.S. Census Bureau. 10-3.3 Pipe Break Data
Water main break history is a good indicator of the quality of a pipe’s condition. The City’s pipe break data was provided from 2012 to 2021.
It should be noted that the LoF module training and validation include the evaluation of pipes that were abandoned and replaced. The pipe breaks, associated to those abandoned pipes, were also included in the training of the LoF module. After the training was completed, the abandoned pipes and breaks were removed from the LoF module, which is necessary for developing the LoF scores for the “normalized” pipes. The normalized break locations are shown on Figure 10-1. The break summary data is shown on Figure 10-2.
10-3.4 LoF Module Training
The LoF module finds correlations between the City’s pipe asset data, the global data, and the City’s comprehensive pipe break data to calculate the pipe LoF percent scores.

The LoF module was trained and validated by evaluating the pipe break data between 2012 to 2020.
The data for 2021 was not included when developing the LoF scores during the training period. The actual 2021 break data was compared to the initial LoF scores to train the model. Once the training and validation was completed all break data was inputted into the model and used to develop the final LoF scores.
The Fracta LoF module can utilize LoF data, such as pipe asset and break data, from nearby agencies to incorporate into the LoF module. This is particularly useful when there is very little break data.
Based on the results of the LoF training exercise, it was determined that the City’s local LoF module was better at predicting the 2021 breaks that were initially withheld from the module. All LoF analysis is based on this local module.
The Fracta AI-ML module identified the following to be the most influencing LoF risk factors:
Pipe Material
Major Roads
Distance from Water
Number of Breaks
Pipe Diameter
Population Density
Elevation
Train
Major Roads
Slope
Built Density
Soil
Fracta’s AI-ML algorithms evaluate many large and complex datasets containing more variables than a human can process. The algorithms “learn” as more and more data is available and inputted into the program. AI-ML is an efficient way to incorporate large amounts of data and improve on results.
Within the LoF module, all pipes are grouped by similar LoF risk factors. Pipe age and pipe break data is not identified as LoF risk factors. This data is used by the AI-ML module to prioritize the LoF risk factors and identify the pipe grouping used to develop the LoF scores for the City’s entire system. 10-3.5 Likelihood of Failure Results
The AI-ML model generates LoF scores which are the calculated percentage that the pipe segments will break in the upcoming 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and 5 years. The summary of the pipes by LoF score is shown in Table 10-1. The LoF scores for each pipe are shown on Figure 10-3.

10-4 Consequence of Failure (CoF)
The CoF analysis involves quantifying the estimated losses associated with damage that might occur when a pipe fails. This is done by modeling the CoF using the widely accepted triple bottom line (TBL) framework, which is a method that categorizes the consequences of failure as social, economic, and environmental factors as shown on Figure 10-4.
Figure 10-4
Consequence of Failure Analysis Factors
The CoF scores are the costs associated with a pipe break. The scores were developed for all pipes using Fracta’s CoF module. The CoF factors included with this risk assessment include the following:
1. Economic CoF: This component reflects the impact that the utility would incur directly due to the repair cost of the failed pipe, which include the labor and materials costs.
2. Social CoF: This component reflects the impact of the pipe failure for the public and has two subcomponents: customers without water service and traffic disruption.
3. Environmental CoF: This component reflects the potential damage that is caused by a pipe break, which includes the discharge of chlorine treated water. 10-4.1 Economic CoF Factors
The cost to repair a pipe break varies depending on the necessary equipment, depth of the pipe break, amount of water loss, and other factor specific to each circumstance. City operation and maintenance staff report that the typical main break response procedure includes a repair of the pipe using sleeve repair clamps. The costs associated with the repair work are the labor and materials cost as follows:
Labor Costs are based on a typical repair time of 5 hours and the following O&M Staff rates 1 Water Utility Leadworker with $75.88/hour rate

CITY OF GLENDORA 10-8 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
Materials costs are based on the pipe sleeve repair
clamp costs that are summarized in Table 10-2.
10-4.2 Social CoF Factors
The social component to the CoF score includes the
customer without water service due to potential outages at each of the City’s pipes. Fracta’s CoF module calculates these indirect costs by estimating the number of customers within a 160 feet radius of each pipe. Fracta’s module uses 2010 Topologically Integrated Geographic Encoding and
Referencing (Tiger) data from the American Census
Bureau to calculate the population density. An indirect cost of $50 per person is attributed to each pipe, which accounts for the social impact the pipe break has on the affected customers.
In addition to customers without water, traffic disruption also contributes to the social component of the CoF score.
Water that overflows on the street and pipe repairs caused by pipe breaks are causes for increased traffic disruptions when there is a pipe break. Fracta’s CoF module
calculates the indirect cost based on pipe size, as shown in Table 10-3. Fracta’s cost estimates are based on
publicly available bid results and costing documents for project traffic control and rerouting.
10-4.3 Environmental CoF Factors
The affected water bodies are generally far from the City’s service area. Catch basins and storm drains are
distributed throughout the service area and will capture all discharged flow from a pipe break. For these reasons, the proximity of a failed pipe to the affected water bodies is irrelevant when developing the CoF score.
The quantity of chlorine treated water is a more reasonable element to evaluate the environmental CoF. The chemical costs to dechlorinate the water from a pipe break was
estimated by the discharged flow, which vary by pipe
diameter. The environmental costs are shown in Table 10-4. 10-5 Risk
Fracta’s Total Risk module combines the LoF scores (%) and the CoF scores ($) to provide a total risk score. The total risk score is a dollar amount that takes into consideration the monetized consequence of failure and the percentage of when each pipe is predicted to fail.
Risk is calculated as the product of the LoF and CoF.
Risk = Likelihood of Failure (LoF) x Consequence of Failure (CoF) Pipe Diameter

CITY OF GLENDORA 10-9 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
Fracta’s LoF scores, predicting which pipe
segments will have the highest risk of breaking in
the upcoming 1 year were used to develop the
total risk scores. The summary of the pipes by
total risk score is shown in Table 10-5. The total
risk scores of each pipe are shown on Figure 10-
5. 10-6 City Pipe Concerns
There are locations throughout the City’s water
system, shown on Figure 10-6, that are known to be difficult to provide routine and emergency operation and maintenance. The majority of these pipes are located within private right-of-ways and are difficult to access. City staff are extremely concerned about these locations, and therefore the pipes were included in the pipe replacement program. If the pipes in these areas were identified as high risk and recommended for replacement, the pipe was increased in priority to account for the City staff’s concerns.
10-7 Critical Facilities
Critical facilities include those businesses or operations where water service is essential, such as hospitals, police facilities, fire facilities, dialysis centers, and care facilities. The locations of critical facilities (identified by City staff) are shown on Figure 10-7.
The City will make all efforts to ensure that the critical facilities are provided reliable water service.
The pipes near these critical facilities were included in the pipe replacement program. If these pipes areas were identified as high risk and recommended for replacement, the pipe was increased in priority to account for the City staff’s concerns.
10-8 Pipe Priorities
Pipe priorities were developed by looking at the total risk score, historical pipe break data, LoF scores, City pipe concerns, and pipes near critical facilities. Pipe priorities are categorized as follow:
Pipe Priority 1 projects include pipes with the following:

PIPE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM
CITY OF GLENDORA 10-13 Water Master Plan
R:Rpts\\Glendora, City of\2022 Water Master Plan
Pipe replacement project priorities were increased for pipes that are identified by the City to have operation and maintenance concerns, as described in Section 10-6. Priorities are also increased for pipes near a critical facility, as described in Section 10-7. The individual pipe priorities are shown on Plate 10-1.
10-9 Project Recommendations
It should be noted that some of the improvement recommendations herein are conceptual in nature based on existing available planning information. Therefore, they should not be considered as absolute for final design.
Proposed pipe replacement projects costs are planning level estimates. Specific alignments and refined cost estimates should be developed as part of the preliminary design phase for each recommended project.
10-9.1 Recommended Improvement Costs
The recommended improvement cost estimates are based upon recent information for similar projects and include contingencies for this planning level study. The pipeline replacement costs are based upon $50 per diameter inch per foot. The replacement costs are based on pipeline replacement projects between Fiscal Year 2018-2019 and Fiscal Year 2020-2021.
The total project cost includes construction, contingency, design and administrative, and construction management and inspection costs. The individual cost components are calculated as follows:
1. Construction Cost = (pipe length (ft)) x (Improvement diameter size (in)) x ($50/diam-in/foot)
2. Design and Administrative Costs = 15% of the Construction Costs
3. Construction Management Costs = 15% of the Construction Costs
4. Contingency Costs = 20% of the Construction Costs
5. Total Project Cost = Construction Cost + Design and Administrative Costs + Construction Management Costs+ Contingency Cost
Total Project Cost = 1.5 x Construction Costs
10-9.2 Project Development
Projects were generally developed to include groups of pipes in the same general vicinity. The project priority was based on the highest individual pipe priority within each group of pipes and are categorized as Project Priority 1, Project Priority 2, and Project Priority 3.
The individual projects within each priority group were prioritized based on discussions with the City regarding historical condition concerns, the total pipe CoF values within each project, and the results from the hydraulic analyses.
As the Priority 1 projects in the pipe replacement program are implemented, it is recommended that the City reevaluate the lower Priority 2 and 3 projects with newer current leak and break data. The pipe priority and project recommendations should be updated at that time.
The pipe replacement project locations are shown on Plate 10-2 and summarized in Table 10-6. The detailed project summary data is included in Appendix 10-1.

As-built plans, sanitary survey reports, maintenance records, pump curves and efficiency tests, dive reports, and other available historical information were reviewed as a part of the evaluation. City staff was interviewed by and accompanied AKM staff on tours of each facility as well. 11-2 Wells
The City’s water system consists of eight (8) active wells. Wells 5, 8, 9, and 12 are located at the San Gabriel Plant in Azusa. Groundwater is first pumped into the San Gabriel Reservoir and then into Zone 1 via the San Gabriel Booster Pump Station. Wells 2, 10, 11, and 13 pump groundwater to Goddard and Sierra Madre Reservoirs, located at the City’s Water Yard.
The assessments were based on field site investigations, discussions with City staff, review of asbuilt plans, pump curves and efficiency tests, installation reports, and Sanitary Survey reports.
Detailed notes of the well assessments and recommendations can be found in Appendix 11-1. The recommendations are summarized in Table 11-1 at the end of this section. The total cost of the well improvements is estimated at about $46.2 Million.
Some of the common recommendations at booster pump stations include the following:
Well rehabilitation – brush and clean, dual swab mechanical, focus intake pumping, and pumping development
Replace discharge piping and valves
Addition of automatic pump to waste
Conduct dual-cam downhole video survey
It is recommended that Well 2 and Well 13 be converted to submersible pumps and that standby generators be added on-site.
Well rehabilitation is recommended for Well 8 and Well 9. This includes dual swab brushing and cleaning, focus intake pumping, and pumping development.
It is recommended that Well 10 and Well 11 be demolished and that a new well be drilled and equipped to replace them. Standby generators and wellhead nitrate treatment will be required.
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes recommendations and costs for improvements for Well 5 to extend its useful life and bring the facility up to the standard code. In the future, the City would like to study the possibility of a new well site on the City owned property adjacent the golf course. The study should determine the exact location and size of the potential well site. The groundwater quality and the size of the discharge piping should also be evaluated. The cost of a new well and dishcarge piping is included in the CIP.
Well rehabilitation and improvement recommendations are included for Well 2, 8, 9, 12, and 13.

11-3 Storage Reservoirs and Hydropneumatic Tanks
The City’s water system consists of twenty-nine (29) active storage reservoirs and three (3) hydraopneumatic tanks. There are sixteen (16) welded steel tanks, five (5) bolted steel tanks, and eight (8) concrete reservoirs.
The assessments were based on field site investigations, discussions with City staff, review of asbuilt plans, dive inspection reports, and review of Sanitary Survey reports. Detailed notes of the reservoir assessments and recommendations can be found in Appendix 11-2. The recommendations are summarized in Table 11-2 at the end of this section. The total cost of the reservoir improvements is estimated at about $52.8 Million.
Some of the common recommendations at multiple storage reservoirs include the following:
Addition of a mixer
Addition of a railing around the roof
Addition of a SAFT climb to ladder
Ladder cage repairs
Replacement of interior and/or exterior ladders
Hatch replacement or addition of hatch
Ventilation improvements
North Glendora Reservoir B is recommened to be demolished and replaced with two new tanks. This reservoir has numerous and significant leaks at the connections of the bolted steel plates. Past repair work has not prevented the leakage. A corrective plan of action was submitted to the Department of Drinking Water (DDW) by the City in February 2022. Preliminary design of the replacement tanks is underway and is expected to be completed in FY 2023. Construction is scheduled for FY 2024 through FY 2025.
It is recommended that the existing South Hills West Reservoir A be demolished and that a new 3 MG steel reservoir be constructed to replace it. Due to the elevation difference between the South Hills West Reservoir A and B sites, it is recommended that a detailed study of these two reservoirs be conducted during the design phase of the new reservoir to evaluate how the two reservoirs should be operated together. The high water elevation of the South Hills West Reservoir A is 969 feet. The high water elevation of the South Hills West Reservoir B is 976 feet. Therefore, the top 7 feet of the South Hills West Reservoir B is not useable.
It is recommended that the Boy Scouts Reservoir A be removed from service. The City should construct an above ground non-potable water tank with a mixer. The tank would be filled whenever the Boy Scout camp is occupied and the water would only be used for the restrooms.\ Recoating or replacement of the hydropnuematic tanks (Silent Ranch A, Eagle Ridge A, and Rainbow A) are recommended unless it is determined that the tank can be removed by constructing additional piping and a pressure relief valve connected to an adjacent zone. This should be determined during the preliminary design study of the booster pump stations and hydropneumatic systems.
The Bluebird Hill Reservoirs B and A is recommended to be demolished and replaced. An increase in volume is recommended if space allows for it. This should be determined by conducting a detailed Item #1. Page 218

11-4 Booster Pump Stations
The City’s water system consists of twenty (20) booster pump stations. Three of the stations serve water to hydropneumatic systems.
The assessments were based on field site investigations, discussions with City staff, review of asbuilt plans, pump curves and efficiency tests, and Sanitary Survey reports. Detailed notes of the booster pump stations assessments and recommendations can be found in Appendix 11-3. The recommendations are summarized in Table 11-3 at the end of this section. The total cost of the booster pump station improvements is estimated at about $55.5 Million.
Some of the common recommendations at booster pump stations include the following:
Addition of permanent standby generator
Raise pump base to 18” above floor
Electrical upgrades
Addition of a fire pump
11-4.1 Hydraulic Studies
A preliminary design study should be conducted for designs of all major water facilities. There are several areas of the service area that require detailed hydraulic studies prior to implementing improvement projects at booster pump stations and/or storage reservoirs providing water for these specific areas. It must be ensured that the demands (daily and fire flow) and required pressures will be met under all conditions. These areas are primarily the smaller zones with lower demands and located in the hillsides. The hydropneumatic systems are included in these areas as well. The number of pumps, pump capacities, reservoir sizes, etc. should be determined during the preliminary design studies.
The detailed hydraulic studies are needed due to storage, pumping, and fire flow deficiencies (see Section 9-3.4, 9-4, and 9-6) identified during the analysis completed for this Master Plan. The recommended hydraulic studies are as follows:
1. Zone 1A – The Zone 1A storage requirement is 0.360 MG. The existing available storage at Hicrest Reservoirs B and A is a total of 0.301 MG. The Hicrest Booster Pump Station has a firm capacity of about 458 gpm. The fire flow requirement for Zone 4 is 2,500 gpm for 2 hours, which will drain the reservoirs. It is recommended that Zone 4 be studied to determine the best way to meet the daily demands of the zone as well as the fire flow requirements.
2. Zone 3C – The Zone 3C storage requirement is 0.313 MG. The existing available storage at Big Dalton Reservoir A and is a total of 0.028 MG. The Dalton Booster Pump Station has a capacity of about 1100 gpm. The fire flow requirement for Zone 3C is 2,500 gpm for 2 hours.
Water is pumped via Dalton Booster Pump Station to Big Dalton Reservoir A. The water in the reservoir is primarily used to fill up trucks for fire fighting purposes and is pumped to Boy Scout Reservoir A during the summer months when the Boy Scout camp is in use. It is Item #1. Page 219

SECTION 12
CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
12-1 General
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) consists of projects that will enhance the distribution system to meet the established criteria, properly maintain the system’s assets, and replace the facilities that have reached the end of their useful lives. The goal of the CIP is to provide the City of Glendora with a long-range planning tool for implementing its water system improvements in an orderly manner and a basis for financing of these improvements. In order to accomplish this goal, it is necessary to estimate project costs of the recommended system improvements, establish a basis, and prioritize the projects.
It should be noted that some of the improvements recommended herein are conceptual in nature based on existing available information. Therefore, they should not be considered as absolute for final design. Further analysis and refinement will be necessary prior to commencing work on the final plans, specifications and estimates package for each project. Detailed preliminary design studies should be prepared to select the final design projects. 12-2 Project Cost Estimates
12-2.1 Pipeline Replacement Cost Estimates
Proposed pipe replacement project costs are planning level estimates based upon recent information provided by the City for similar projects and include contingencies for this planning level study.
Specific alignments and refined cost estimates should be developed as part of the preliminary design phase for each recommended project.
The following construction costs were utilized for the Fire Flow Improvements (Table 9-6), Additional Hydraulic Improvements (Table 9-7) and the Pipe Replacement Program Projects (Table 10-6).
1. Pipeline replacement cost = $50 per diameter inch per foot of pipe. The replacement costs are based on pipeline replacement projects between Fiscal Year 2018-2019 and Fiscal Year 2020-2021.
2. Addition of a fire hydrant to an existing water main or reconnection of a fire hydrant lateral to an existing water main = $15,000
3. Valve replacement = $10,000
The total project costs include construction, contingency, design and administrative, and construction management and inspection costs. The individual cost components are calculated as follows:
1. Construction Cost = Unit Cost x Recommended Units
2. Design and Administrative Cost = 15% of the Construction Cost
3. Construction Management Cost = 15% of the Construction Cost
4. Contingency Cost = 20% of the Construction Cost
5. Total Project Cost = Construction Cost + Design and Administrative Cost + Construction Management Cost + Contingency Cost
Total Project Cost = 1.5 x Construction Cost

Construction costs are expected to fluctuate as changes occur in the economy. These costs should therefore be reevaluated and updated annually based upon Engineering News Record (ENR) Index for the Los Angeles area (ENRLA), with the base ENRLA Index of 13,033.31 for February 2023 12-2.2 Facility Improvement Costs
The recommended facility improvement cost estimates (Table 11-3) are based upon recent project experience and include contingencies for this planning level study.
The total project costs include construction, contingency, design and administrative, and construction management and inspection costs. The individual cost components are calculated as follows:
1. Construction Cost = Unit Cost x Recommended Units
2. Design and Administrative Cost = 20% of the Construction Cost
3. Construction Management Cost = 15% of the Construction Cost
4. Contingency Cost = 20% of the Construction Cost
5. Total Project Cost = Construction Cost + Design and Administrative Cost + Construction Management Cost + Contingency Cost
Total Project Cost = 1.55 x Construction Cost
The design cost is set at a higher percentage for facility improvements than it is for pipeline improvements. It is expected that facility improvements will require preliminary design studies and hydraulic analysis that will result in a higher design cost than the pipeline improvements.
Construction costs are expected to fluctuate as changes occur in the economy. These costs should therefore be reevaluated and updated annually based upon Engineering News Record (ENR) Index for the Los Angeles area (ENRLA), with the base ENRLA Index of 14,033.31 for February 2023. 12-3 Project Priorities
The primary consideration in establishing project priorities for the capital improvement program list must always be given to the health, safety and welfare of the public and the customers.
The fire flow improvement projects provided in Table 9-6 are listed in order of priority based on the degree of the fire deficiency identified in the hydraulic model analysis described in Section 9.
The pipe replacement program projects provided in Table 10-6 are listed in order of priority based on the risk assessment described in Section 10.
The facility improvements are provided in Tables 11-1 through 11-4 by facility site. The improvements are sorted by priority in Appendix 11-2.
Although recommended projects are assigned a priority based on the analysis conducted for this Master Plan study, the City should review the prioritization and adjust it annually to respond to changed conditions and to take advantage of concurrent construction, such as street paving projects or adjacent infrastructure work.
The recommendations and cost estimates are guidelines for the City to plan future projects and financing. Preliminary design and more detailed hydraulic studies may lead to changes in project definitions and costs as well as priorities.

Fire Flow Pipe Improvement Projects (Table 9-6) $ 8,638,800 Additional Hydraulic Improvement Projects (Table 9-7) $ 762,000 Pipe Replacement Program Costs – Priority 1 (Table 10-6) $64,772,867 Pipe Replacement Program Costs – Priority 2 (Table 10-6) $43,393,241 Pipe Replacement Program Costs – Priority 3 (Table 10-6) $74,960,553 Well Improvement Costs (Table 11-1) $35,003,650
Reservoir Improvement Costs (Table 11-2) $52,757,349
Booster Pump Station Improvement Costs (Table 11-3) $55,468,300 Miscellaneous Water Facility Improvement Costs (Table 11-4) $14,169,624 Total CIP Cost $349,926,085
12-5 Irwindale Facility
Possible redevelopment of Wells 3, 4, and 7 and upgrades to the Irwindale Facility are discussed in Section 3-4.1. Potential costs are provided in Tables 3-3 and 3-4. It is estimated that upgrades to the Irwindale Water Treatment Facility, including Well 3 and 4 would cost about $84 Million. If redevelopment and construction of Well 7 is included in the project, the cost would increase to about $127 Million. These costs were not included in the CIP as a study was underway at the time of the Master Plan and funding options were being considered.
12-6 Short Term Capital Improvement Projects
Many high priority projects have been identified through this Water Master Plan Update. It is going to take time for the City to address all the recommended projects. In the short term (next five years), the following projects are considered to be the highest priority and should be addressed by the City as soon as possible:
