STAFF REPORT
Date: January 19, 2022 Agenda Item:
2.J.
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Lisette Free, Finance Director
Department: Finance
SUBJECT:
Quarterly Investment Report for Quarter Ended December 31, 2021 RECOMMENDATION:
Receive and file the Quarterly Investment Report for the Quarter Ended December 31, 2021.
SUMMARY:
Staff is recommending that the City Council receive and file the City’s quarterly investment report for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. This report has been prepared to meet the requirements of the City’s Investment Policy and applicable sections of the State of California Government Code.
BACKGROUND:
The City’s Investment Policy requires the Treasurer to render a quarterly report to the legislative body. The report is to be prepared in accordance with Government Code Section 53646 (b)(1) and should contain detailed information on all securities, investments, and monies of the local agency; a statement of compliance of the portfolio with the Statement of Investment Policy; and a statement of the City’s ability to meet its cash flow requirements for the next six months. This report, which is for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, meets the requirements of the Investment Policy and Government Code. It covers funds of the City and the Successor Agency to the former Norco Redevelopment Agency.
The attached schedules (attachments 1 through 4) have been prepared to meet the detailed requirements of the Government Code and the City’s Investment Policy as approved by the Council on May 5, 2021. It is to be noted that the Investment Policy excludes certain investments (bond proceeds) from these requirements. This means that bond proceeds are invested in accordance with the provisions of the bond indentures rather than the provisions of the Investment Policy. Consequently, in determining whether
the operating portfolio holdings are in compliance with the Government Code and the approved Investment Policy, investments of bond proceeds have been excluded.
Attachment 1 provides a summary schedule of the City’s operating portfolio holdings by type as of December 31, 2021. This summary also provides information on whether or not each investment category complies with the limitations imposed by State law and the City’s Investment Policy. Investments that are subject to the Statement of Investment Policy are operating or idle funds invested by the Treasurer within the provisions of the approved Investment Policy. During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the operating portfolio increased by a net amount of $10.8 million from $79.9 million to $90.7 million.
Traditionally, revenue receipts during second quarter of the fiscal year are not sufficient to cover expenditures due to the lag in the receipt of property tax, vehicle license fees, sales tax in lieu, electric and gas franchise fee revenues. However, this quarter that trend reversed mainly due to significant development impact and agreement fees received from CapRock Partners for the Palomino Phase I and Saddle Ranch Phase II projects.
Additionally, Measure R transactions and use tax revenues received during the period exceeded expenditures. The net increase of $10.8 million would have been $1 million higher if it were not for the initial contribution to the Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) for pension rate stabilization program trust.
Attachment 2 provides a graphical breakdown of the operating portfolio holdings by investment type as of December 31, 2021. This chart is for investments that are subject to the Investment Policy. The operating portfolio consisted of 82% investment in the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), 14% in Agency Securities and the remaining 4% in cash and cash equivalents.
A summary of investments not subject to the provisions of the Investment Policy (bond proceeds and debt service reserve funds) is also shown on Attachment 1. These funds are invested in accordance with applicable bond indenture provisions. During the quarter ended December 31, 2021, bond proceeds and debt service reserve fund portfolio increased by a net amount of $.4 million from $6.5 million to $6.9 million due to the timing of the transfers for debt service payments.
Attachment 3 provides a detailed listing of the City’s portfolio holdings as required by the Government Code. In this listing, “N/A” is used to denote that the information is either not available or applicable. Agency Securities issued by United States Government Sponsored Entities (GSEs) are rated “AA+” by S&P rating service and “Aaa” by Moody’s and Fitch rating service.
Attachment 4 indicates cash balances by Fund as additional information to complement the schedule of investment holdings. For the Operating Funds, the cash balance provides an indication of the financial health of each Fund.
CASH FLOWS: Based on cash balances as of December 31, 2021 and anticipated cash receipts for the next six months, staff estimates that there will be sufficient cash to cover disbursements for the City and Successor Agency for the next six months ending June 30, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Not applicable.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
The Quarterly Investment Report is consistent with Strategic Direction #3 “Assure financial stability by identifying new revenue sources and continuing prudent financial management.”

Therefore, it is recommended that a contract be awarded to All American Asphalt in the amount of $147,435 and authorize the City Manager to approve contract change orders up to 10 percent of the total bid amount.
BACKGROUND:
Plans and specifications for the FY 2021-2022 Slurry Seal Project were advertised on November 29, 2021, with a bid opening date of December 15, 2021. A total of four bids were received with proposals ranging in value from $147,435 to $164,584. The bid summary analysis has been attached for Council’s review (Bid Summary Analysis). The FY 2021-2022 Slurry Seal Project entails the construction of new slurry and full depth asphalt replacement in various locations (see Project Exhibit).
Staff has reviewed all the bids submitted and determined that All American Asphalt of Corona, California as being the lowest responsible bidder in the amount of $147,435 (see Bid). Staff has reviewed the references of the lowest bidder and bid documents submitted and determined the bid is responsive to all requirements and the contractor has the
experience to complete the required construction activities for the FY 2021-2022 Slurry Seal Project.
The FY 2021-2022 Slurry Seal Project has an approved budget of $160,000 ($150,000 plus $10,000 for design costs) which is insufficient to fund the lowest bid amount.
Therefore, staff is recommending City Council approve Resolution 2022-05 to amend the FY 2022-2026 CIP Budget to increase the construction budget in the amount of $13,000 to ensure sufficient funding for the total project amount of $163,000 ($147,435 construction plus 10% contingency).
Based on the approval of the resolution, staff recommends that City Council award a contract to All American Asphalt in the amount of $147,435 and authorize the City Manager to approved contract change orders up to 10 percent of the total bid amount and amend appropriations for an additional $13,000.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Slurry Seal Project was approved as a Capital Improvement Project (CIP) project for Fiscal Year 2021-2022. The project's costs-to-date are $8,330 in design costs. Funds in the amount of $160,000 ($150,000 for construction and $10,000 for design; project number 4902.1; account number 149.930.43160) are insufficient to fund the lowest bidder bid amount.
Adoption of Resolution 2022-05 will appropriate an additional budget amount of $13,000 (Fund 149) to ensure sufficient funding for the project is available to cover the full bid amount and a 10% contingency for a total of $163,000.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
Construction of the Slurry Seal Project is consistent with Strategic Direction #1 - Establish funding for planning, maintenance, replacement and development of infrastructure.

Any failure to maintain the required insurance shall be sufficient cause for City to terminate this Contract. No action taken by City hereunder shall in any way relieve Contractor of its responsibilities under this Contract.
The fact that insurance is obtained by Contractor shall not be deemed to release or diminish the liability of Contractor, including, without limitation, liability under the indemnity provisions of this Contract. The duty to indemnify City shall apply to all claims and liability regardless of whether any insurance policies are applicable. The policy limits do not act as a limitation upon the amount of indemnification to be provided by Contractor. Approval or purchase of any insurance contracts or policies shall in no way relieve from liability nor limit the liability of Contractor, its principals, officers, agents, employees, persons under the supervision of Contractor, vendors, suppliers, invitees, consultants, sub-consultants, subcontractors, or anyone employed directly or indirectly by any of them.
In the event of a partial or total destruction by the perils insured against of any or all of the work and/or materials herein provided for at any time prior to the final completion of the Contract and the final acceptance by the City of the work or materials to be performed or supplied thereunder, the Contractor shall promptly reconstruct, repair, replace, or restore all work or materials so destroyed or injured at his/her sole cost and expense. Nothing herein provided for shall in any way excuse the Contractor or his/her insurance company from the obligation of furnishing all the required materials and completing the work in full compliance with the terms of the Contract.
If Contractor should subcontract all or any portion of the services to be performed under this Contract, Contractor shall require each subcontractor to provide insurance protection in favor of City, its officers, officials, employees and agents in accordance with the terms of each of the preceding paragraphs, except that the subcontractors' certificates and endorsements shall be on file with Contractor and City prior to the commencement of any work by the subcontractor.

No further payments shall be deemed due or will be made under this Agreement until any replacement bonds required by this section are accepted by the City. To the extent, if any, that the total compensation is increased in accordance with the Agreement, the Contractor shall, upon request of the City, cause the amount of the bonds to be increased accordingly and shall promptly deliver satisfactory evidence of such increase to the City. To the extent available, the bonds shall further provide that no change or alteration of the Agreement (including, without limitation, an increase in the total compensation, as referred to above), extensions of time, or modifications of the time, terms, or conditions of payment to the Contractor, will release the surety. If the Contractor fails to furnish any required bond, the City may terminate this Agreement for cause.

The City of Norco is acting as the Lead Agency.

Since no changes and additions to the Adopted Negative Declaration
Ordinance 1078 - Zone Amendment 2021-04
January 19, 2022
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Norco does hereby approve the following FINDINGS AND DETERMINATIONS:
I. FINDINGS:
A. The proposed Zone Change is necessary and desirable for the development of the community in harmony with the objective of the General Plan.
B. The proposed Zone Change will be compatible and complementary to existing conditions in the surrounding area.
C. With the proposal, to add the HDO’s, the site is adequate in size to accommodate uses permitted in the zone requested (which is the existing undying zone), and all applicable property development standards can be complied with.
D. The site properly relates to streets and highways designed and fully improved to carry the type and quantity of traffic that is expected to be generated in this area; and that utilities exist or are planned which will adequately serve the property as rezoned to add the HDO.
E. The proposed zoning amendments would not result in the reduction of allowed residential density or intensity of land uses, consistent with SB 330. The City currently has a total of 56.3 acres of Housing Development Overlay (HDO zoning and after the zone changes are implemented, the Housing Development Overlay will consist of 57.8 acres.
F. On October 6, 2021, a Negative Declaration was adopted for the 2021-2029 Housing Element Update (SCH # 2021080283) (Adopted Negative Declaration) which was prepared pursuant to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000, et seq., CEQA), the regulations promulgated thereunder (14 California Code of Regulations, §§ 15000, et seq., CEQA Guidelines), and the City’s Environmental Review Guidelines. The City of Norco is acting as the Lead Agency. The Adopted Negative Declaration evaluated the environmental impacts of including Assessor’s Parcel Numbers of 119-020-015, -021, -022 and, -023 as housing sites in the 2021-2029 Housing Element Update and applying the HDO zone to the sites and determined significant impacts would not occur. Since no changes and additions to the Adopted Negative Declaration are necessary to address Zone Change 2021-04 and no circumstances exist calling for the preparation of a subsequent or supplemental environmental impact report pursuant to CEQA Guidelines §§ 15162 and 15163, further environmental review is not required, and the Project is within the scope of the Adopted Negative Declaration.
Ordinance 1078 - Zone Amendment 2021-04
January 19, 2022

In July of 2020, City Council approved a process to provide a self-evaluation review of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that was enacted in July 1990 and became effective January 1992. The Self-Evaluation was a two-part program; the first part provided a review of all public facility facilities and parks identifying barriers to access to be corrected by a Certified Access Specialist (CASp) and the creation of a Transition Plan that will provide multi-year process for implementation. The second part evaluated programs, services and communication and provided a plan for implementation to meet ADA requirements. The resulting Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan is a fluid roadmap for the City to take corrective measures over the course of time to be ADA compliant in the areas of facilities, programming and communication to best serve all persons. This Plan is required to be approved by the City Council.
BACKGROUND:
In July of 2020, City Council approved a process to provide a self-evaluation review of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that was enacted in July 1990 and became effective January 1992. The Self-Evaluation was a two-part program; the first part provided a review of all public facilities and parks identifying barriers with the creation of a Transition Plan that will provide multi-year corrective measures. The second part looked at programs, services and communication and provided a plan for implementation to meet ADA requirements.
The ADA requires the City to provide equal opportunities to all individuals. The ADA does not require equal treatment, which can in fact lead to discrimination against individuals with disabilities. To avoid discrimination, the City will need to remediate any deficiencies noted to ensure individuals with disabilities enjoy equal access to programs, services and facilities.
On November 18, 2020, the City of Norco entered into a Professional Services Agreement with Miller Architectural Corporation (ADA Consultant) for work related to ADA Evaluation and Transition Plan. The general scope of work performed by the service provider included project management, public outreach and meetings, an ADA Self-Evaluation, physical barrier surveys and reports, inventory database and mapping, ADA SelfEvaluation and Transition Plan reports, City staff training, and on-call ADA support as needed.
The methodology used in developing the ADA Program Accessibility - Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan was undertaken by the City of Norco, through the ADA Consultant, to evaluate its current programs, services, policies and practices to determine if they are consistent with the full participation of individual with disabilities and with the requirements of state and federal accessibility laws. This was accomplished primarily through a 10- page self evaluation survey tool which was completed by 20 key managers, directors, supervisors, program staff and administrators. The self evaluation provided staff the ability to recognize the areas of programs, services or events which may need to be modified or changed in order to become more accessible to individuals with disabilities.
As part of the public process, the Parks and Recreation Commission held a Public Meeting Workshop on Monday, November 22, 2021 in which the Commission, staff and the public received a presentation from the consultant team regarding the City SelfEvaluation and Transition Plan. The workshop allowed Commission members to review recommendations and findings from the self-evaluation team for public facilities, programs and services. The workshop was an open discussion and allowed the consultant to hear from the Commission as well as to take public comments. However, there were no public comments on the matter.
On December 1, 2021, the City Council held a Public Meeting Workshop which included an overview of the ADA Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan by Miller Architectural Corporation and the consultant team. Similar to the Commission Public Meeting Workshop, the City Council Public Meeting Workshop was an open discussion and allowed the consultant to hear from the Council as well as to take public comments.
However, there were no public comments on the matter.
The proposed Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan is a fluid roadmap for the City to take corrective measures over the course of years to be ADA compliant in the areas of facilities, programming and communication to best serve the public. Although the Consultants have identified the corrective measures and have prioritized the items to be addressed, this schedule can be modified at any time, based on the needs of the community, capital projects implementation, ease of implementation and availability of resources. Once approved, staff will move forward and create a process to implement the Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no financial impact for City Council approval of the Transition Plan. Once the Transition Plan is approved, costs to implement the various recommendations will be included in the appropriate CIP and Operating Budgets as applicable.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
The Self-Evaluation and Transition Plan is consistent with Strategic Plan Directive #2:
Community Outreach - Engage with the community through excellent customer service, communication and programs.

To: Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Prepared By: Chad Blais, Director
Department: Public Works
SUBJECT:
Adoption of the Temescal Basin Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) RECOMMENDATION:
Approve Resolution No. 2022-07, adopting the Temescal Basin Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP)
SUMMARY:
Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) requires all medium- and highpriority groundwater basins to be managed by a Groundwater Sustainability Agency and prepare a Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP). The Temescal Basin GSP was prepared in concert with other agencies in the Temescal Basin and in consideration of input from local stakeholders. Through this resolution the City will formally adopt the Temescal Basin GSP recognizing the City of Corona as the lead agency of the Temescal Basin Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA). The GSP has been prepared in compliance with the SGMA and with guidance from the California Department of Water Resources (DWR).
BACKGROUND:
On September 16, 2014, the Governor signed a three-bill package, known collectively as the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), into law that established a new structure for sustainable groundwater management. The Sustainable Groundwater Management Act went into effect on January 1, 2015. SGMA requires all medium- and high-priority groundwater basins, as designated by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) Bulletin 118, to be managed by a Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) or multiple GSAs. The Temescal Basin GSA was created consisting of the City of Corona, City of Norco, and the Home Gardens County Water District. Through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the City of Corona accepted the responsibility to develop a Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) for the Temescal Basin, a mediumpriority groundwater basin (see attached report).
The City of Corona issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for GSP development in November 2019. The RFP was awarded to Todd Groundwater and approved by the Corona City Council on May 20, 2020. The approved proposal included two subconsultants, Carollo Engineers and Kearns & West. Todd Groundwater was the lead consultant assisting the City of Corona in preparing a GSP for the Temescal Basin. The City of Corona has been working with Todd Groundwater since May 2020 to prepare a GSP for the Temescal Basin. The GSP has been prepared to be consistent with SGMA, using guidance from DWR, and input from local stakeholders.
Public Outreach and Stakeholder Engagement
The Temescal Basin GSP preparation was a transparent process where stakeholders and the public were invited to participate and comment throughout its creation. A dedicated Temescal Basin groundwater webpage was created, hosted by the City of Corona. The webpage was updated with meeting dates/times, registration links, meeting presentations, meeting summaries, and drafts of the GSP chapters as they became available. A Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) was formed from select neighboring agencies and local stakeholders. The TAC members included:
• City of Corona – Utilities Department
• City of Corona – Council Members
• Home Gardens County Water District
• City of Norco
• Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District • California Regional Water Quality Control Board – Santa Ana Region 8 • All American Asphalt
• 3M Industrial Mineral Products Division
Four TAC meetings were held on April 19, 2020, November 18, 2020, February 17, 2021, and June 16, 2021. TAC members received presentations on SGMA, groundwater conditions in the Temescal Basin, draft plans for continued sustainable management of the Basin, and drafts of GSP chapters as they were created to review and provide feedback to the Temescal Basin GSA and the consultant team.
The Temescal Basin GSA also hosted public workshops where anyone interested in the Temescal Basin GSP could attend, comment, and/or ask questions. Three Public Workshops were held on September 29, 2020, March 2, 2021, and July 8, 2021. The public workshops were open to the public. In order to promote participation, the Temescal Basin GSA maintained an open-enrollment “Interested Parties List” that was used to distribute information regarding meeting dates, times, and availability of GSP component drafts. All meetings were held virtually via Zoom, and were simultaneously broadcasted on YouTube, Facebook, and Corona’s public broadcast cable channel. The Public Workshops were all led in English while simultaneously translated to Spanish. Viewers who wished to view meetings in Spanish could do so via a “Spanish room” option within the Zoom platform.
Additional outreach included distribution of public information fliers in both English and Spanish and targeted outreach meetings to local community leaders and community advocacy groups.
Basin Setting
The Temescal Basin is bound on the west by the Santa Ana Mountains and the east by low-lying El Sobrante de San Jacinto and La Sierra Hills and it is adjacent to the Bedford Coldwater, Chino, and Riverside-Arlington Sub-basins of the Upper Santa Ana Groundwater Basin and the Coastal Plain of the Orange County Basin.
The Temescal Basin is located within one of the structural blocks of the Peninsular Ranges of Southern California. The Basin occurs in a linear low-lying block, referred to as the Elsinore-Temecula trough, that extends from Corona to the southeast some 30 miles and was formed along an extensive northwest-southeast trending fault zone including the Elsinore, Chino, and related faults.
The basin-fill alluvial deposits and, to some extent, the underlying sedimentary units make up the aquifers in the Basin. Three aquifer packages provide water supply to wells in the Basin: the Channel Aquifer, the Alluvial Fan aquifers, and, to a lesser extent, consolidated sandstone aquifers. Of these three aquifers, the Channel Aquifer is the only principal aquifer as it is the most productive aquifer and provides most of the groundwater supply in the Basin.
Groundwater Conditions
Water levels in the Channel Aquifer vary in response to wet and dry hydrologic cycles.
Increased pumping and prolonged drought have resulted in a slight decline in water levels over the past twenty years. Groundwater levels reached their respective highs in the early 1980s in response to a wet hydrologic cycle that began in 1978. The lowest groundwater levels generally correspond to dry periods and periods of increased pumping, though the responses throughout the Basin are not uniform.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and nitrates are the primary water quality constituents of concern in the Basin. Groundwater in the Basin is somewhat mineralized, with high TDS concentrations in many monitored wells. Groundwater in the Basin has been impacted by human activities both in the Basin and watershed including agricultural, urban, and industrial land uses. Elevated nitrate concentrations have been documented in the Basin since, at least, the 1950s.
Water Budget
A water balance (or water budget) is a quantitative tabulation of all inflows, outflows, and storage change of a hydrologic system. This GSP contains a detailed water balance for both the groundwater system and surface water system of the Basin. The water budgets were developed for time periods representing historical, current, future no project (baseline), and future growth plus climate change conditions. The two future scenarios were simulated to test sustainability, and both showed sustainable conditions in the future.
Sustainable Management Criteria
The sustainable management goal of the Temescal Basin is to sustain groundwater resources for the current and future beneficial uses of the Basin in a manner that is adaptive and responsive to the following objectives:
• Provide a long-term, reliable, and efficient groundwater supply for municipal, industrial, and other uses;
• Provide reliable storage for water supply resilience during droughts and shortages;
• Protect groundwater quality;
• Support beneficial uses of interconnected surface waters; and • Support integrated and cooperative water resource management.
This goal is consistent with SGMA and is based on information from other aspects of the GSP.
A GSP must develop quantitative sustainability criteria for all applicable sustainability indicators that allow the Temescal Basin GSA to define, measure, and track the progress of sustainable management of the Temescal Basin. These criteria include the following:
• Undesirable Result – significant and unreasonable conditions for any of the six sustainability indicators which are groundwater level declines, groundwater storage reductions, land subsidence, degradation groundwater quality, seawater intrusion, and depletion of interconnected surface water (including impacts on groundwater dependent ecosystems).
• Minimum Threshold (MT) – numeric value used to define undesirable results for each sustainability indicator.
• Measurable Objective (MO) – specific, quantifiable goal to track the performance of sustainable management.
The sustainability indicators and sustainable management criteria are clearly defined and provide a quantitative analysis of the Basin’s sustainability. As the Basin has been managed without significant undesirable results, the sustainability criteria are defined to avoid future undesirable results.
Monitoring Network
The monitoring network for GSP implementation has been established to document groundwater and related surface conditions as relevant to the sustainability indicators, MTs, and MOs. The components of the monitoring network are built from existing programs and will be carried out by the Temescal GSA. The monitoring network comprises a set of existing wells in which groundwater elevations and water quality parameters have been measured historically and will continue to be measured in the future. There are currently 27 existing wells in which groundwater elevation has and will be monitored. Many of these wells are also used for monitoring groundwater quality, along with other water supply and water quality monitoring wells in the Temescal Basin.
Additional monitoring wells may be added to the network in the future as necessary. The GSP includes plans to add several shallow wells for monitoring interconnected surface water conditions in the southern part of the Prado management zone.
Projects and Management Actions
During the preparation of the GSP, the Temescal Basin GSA identified five specific management actions (Actions) and three projects (Projects) to achieve the sustainability goal. The Actions are generally focused on data collection, storage and reporting of information necessary to monitor sustainability, and assessment of when Actions may be necessary (i.e., when MTs are approached or exceeded). The projects are generally designed to reduce uncertainty in areas where data gaps have been identified during development of the GSP. These projects and management actions are aimed at achieving sustainability goals and responding to changing conditions in the Basin.
GSP Implementation
The official adoption of the GSP by the Temescal Basin GSA will initiate Plan implementation. After submittal of the GSP to DWR, and during the DWR review period, the Temescal Basin GSA will continue to communicate with stakeholders via the City of Corona’s website and begin implementing the projects and management actions described in the GSP. The Plan will be implemented to sustainably manage groundwater in the Basin under the authority of the Temescal Basin GSA and its member agencies.
The Temescal Basin GSA is required to submit an annual report to DWR by April 1st of each year following adoption of the GSP. The first annual report will be due in April of 2022. The Temescal Basin GSA has committed to implementing the GSP upon adoption and completing the projects and management actions necessary to monitor and maintain sustainability within the first five years of initiation of the GSP.
The Temescal Basin GSP is presented in draft form to allow for modifications based on public comments during the public hearing portion of the Council meeting. Norco must adopt the attached Resolution 2022-07 approving the Temescal Basin GSP and said Resolution will be included with the final GSP submitted to DWR as a final document.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City of Corona has agreed to fund the cost related to annual reporting requirements.
Because Norco does not currently produce water from the Temescal Basin, there are no initial costs related to Norco's participation in the GSP. However, Norco's future costs as part of the GSP will be revaluated at such time the City of Norco actually produces water from the Temescal Basin.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN:
Adoption of the Temescal Basin Groundwater Sustainability Plan is consistent with Strategic Direction #1 - Establish funding for planning, maintenance, replacement and development of infrastructure.

Temescal Basin GSP ES-1
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) requires local agencies in groundwater basins designated as high- or medium-priority to form Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSAs) and develop a Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) to plan for achieving and/or maintaining sustainability within 20 years of implementing the plan.
The Temescal Groundwater Subbasin (Basin) has been designated by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) as medium priority and must prepare a GSP.
Wishing to provide a framework for cooperative groundwater management and SGMA compliance, the City of Corona (Corona), City of Norco (Norco), and the Home Gardens County Water District (HGCWD) executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in March 2017 establishing the Temescal Basin Groundwater Sustainability Agency (Temescal GSA). In August 2017, the Temescal GSA became the GSA for the Basin by submitting a formation notice to DWR. While Corona is leading this effort, the GSP will be developed jointly among the three agencies, with coordinated implementation toward sustainable management.
ES-1 BASIN SETTING
Figure ES-1 shows the Basin located in western Riverside County. Figure ES-1 also shows the adjacent Bedford Coldwater, Chino, and Riverside-Arlington Subbasins of the Upper Santa Ana Groundwater Basin and the Coastal Plain of Orange County Basin. The Temescal Basin is bounded on the west by the Santa Ana Mountains and the east by low-lying El Sobrante de San Jacinto and La Sierra hills.
The Basin is located within one of the structural blocks of the Peninsular Ranges of Southern California. The Basin occurs in a linear low-lying block, referred to as the Elsinore-Temecula trough, between the Santa Ana Mountains on the west and the Perris Plain on the east (Todd and AKM 2008). The trough extends from Corona to the southeast some 30 miles and was formed along an extensive northwest-southeast trending fault zone including the Elsinore, Chino, and related faults. The Elsinore and Chino fault zones bound the Basin on the west and trend along the mountain fronts.
The basin-fill alluvial deposits and, to some extent, the underlying sedimentary units make up the aquifers in the Basin. However, these deposits do not fall neatly into two categories of permeability, such as bedrock and basin fill. Aquifer packages composed of various geologic units have been defined based on depositional environment, degree of consolidation, groundwater production, and location throughout the Basin.
Three aquifer packages provide water supply to wells in Basin: the Channel Aquifer, the Alluvial Fan aquifers, and, to a lesser extent, consolidated sandstone aquifers (Todd and AKM 2008). Of these three aquifers, the Channel Aquifer is the only principal aquifer as it the most productive aquifer and provides most of the groundwater supply in the Basin, Figure ES-2.

ES-2 GROUNDWATER CONDITIONS
Water levels in the Channel Aquifer vary in response to wet and dry hydrologic cycles.
Increased pumping and prolonged drought have resulted in a slight decline in water levels over the past twenty years. Groundwater levels reached their respective highs in the early 1980s in response to a wet hydrologic cycle that began in 1978. These higher levels also correlate to a period of relatively low pumping in the Basin. During a later wet cycle from 1992 to 1998, water levels did not recover to 1980s levels, likely related to an increase in Basin pumping. The lowest groundwater levels generally correspond to dry periods and periods of increased pumping, though the responses throughout the Basin are not uniform.
Figure ES-3. Representative Hydrograph, Corona Well 15
Temescal Basin GSP ES-5
1980s levels; pumping in the Basin had increased in this period. Hydrographs from most wells show lowering water levels from 2000 to 2004, a period that was not hydrologically dry but had increased pumping in Corona. In the Well 15 hydrograph, the lowest water levels occurred during the 2015 to 2017 period, during and following drought conditions.
There have been slight increases since then in 2018 through 2019 due in part to increased precipitation after 2015.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and nitrate are the primary constituents of concern in the Basin.
Groundwater in the Basin is somewhat mineralized, with high TDS concentrations in many monitored wells. Recent average TDS concentrations in the Basin are above the 500 milligrams per liter (mg/L) lower secondary maximum contaminant level (SMCL) for drinking water, but below the upper SMCL of 1,000 mg/L.
Groundwater in the Basin has been impacted by human activities both in the Basin and watershed including agricultural, urban, and industrial land uses. Elevated nitrate concentrations have been documented in the Basin since at least the 1950s. Recent average nitrate as nitrate (NO3) concentrations in the Basin are moderate; the recent average concentration in the Basin is 42.8 mg/L. The maximum contaminant level (MCL) for nitrate as NO3 in drinking water is 45 mg/L.
ES-3 WATER SUPPLY
Sources of water supply for agricultural, municipal and industrial (M&I), and domestic uses include groundwater, imported water, and recycled water. Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Met) is the wholesaler for imported water and its sources of water include the Colorado River and the State Water Project. Both Corona and Norco receive imported water from Met for distribution in the Basin.
Groundwater has been an important component of water supply in the Basin for more than 100 years. Until the 1970s, most of the groundwater production in the Basin was for agricultural supply. A few well owners have also produced small amounts of groundwater for domestic and industrial use. There are no current private domestic groundwater users in the Basin. Production for municipal supply increased in the 1960s and 1970s and continues today.
For more than 50 years, Corona and HGCWD have relied on groundwater from the Basin for municipal uses, and these agencies have long been responsible for managing groundwater conditions in the Basin. Norco has also relied on groundwater but their wells are located outside of the Temescal Basin (in the unadjudicated portion of the Chino Subbasin). Corona, in coordination with HGCWD and Norco, adopted a Groundwater Management Plan (GWMP) in 2008 that covers the Basin.
ES-4 WATER BUDGET
A water balance (or water budget) is a quantitative tabulation of all inflows, outflows, and storage change of a hydrologic system. This GSP contains a detailed water balance for both the groundwater system and surface water system of the Basin. The water budgets were
Temescal Basin GSP ES-6
developed for time periods representing historical, current, future no project (baseline), and future growth plus climate change (growth plus climate change) conditions.
Surface water and other inflows came from multiple sources. Monthly inflows in Temescal Wash were obtained from the baseline and growth plus climate change simulations produced by the Bedford-Coldwater Subbasin groundwater model (Todd, H&H, and Stantec 2021), which is concurrently being used to develop the GSP for that subbasin. Small stream and bedrock inflows simulated for 1993 to 2017 of the calibration model period were repeated twice to obtain 50 years of data.
In the historical model, the Basin water budgets were overall negative for the historical and current analysis periods, due to a variety of reasons and reflecting the different time periods. Storage declines during the early years of the simulation may have resulted from incorrectly estimated initial water levels. During 2000 to 2011, relatively high amounts of municipal groundwater pumping might have caused a gradual decrease in storage. Since 2011, the predominantly dry climatic conditions have resulted in reduced inflows and thus a decrease in storage. These historical storage declines have not resulted in undesirable results related to water levels or groundwater storage in the Basin to date. Most groundwater production in the Basin is for Corona municipal use, and Corona and the other GSA agencies have a portfolio of alternative water supply sources for future use.
Two future scenarios were simulated to test sustainability. In the baseline scenario, land use remains the same as the current conditions. The growth plus climate change scenario incorporated anticipated effects of climate change, urban development, and associated changes in water and wastewater management.
In both future scenarios, the total pumping was adjusted to pump within the sustainable yield of the Basin; the remaining municipal water demand will be supplied by imported and recycled water. Simulating pumping within the sustainable yield of the Basin in the groundwater model produced essentially no long-term storage change in the future baseline simulation.
Growth and climate change had relatively small effects that tended to offset each other. The warmer, drier climatic conditions tended to decrease stream percolation and rainfall recharge. Urban growth—much of which is projected to be in tributary watershed areas— tended to increase recharge because of irrigation deep percolation, pipe leaks and percolation of runoff from disconnected impervious areas. Notably, total water use and percolation of reclaimed water were assumed not to change appreciably, consistent with assumptions in the Corona’s Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) (Michael Baker 2021) that population growth will be offset by decreases in per-capita water use. Consequently, individual inflows and outflows in the growth plus climate change scenario were identical to or very close to the values in the future baseline scenario.
Average annual storage changes during both future scenarios were very slightly positive, with total inflows about34 AFY greater than total outflows. This was the intentional result of adjusting Corona pumping to achieve close to zero net storage change during 2019 to 2068.
Temescal Basin GSP ES-7
ES-5 SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT CRITERIA
The sustainable management goal of the Temescal Basin is to sustain groundwater resources for the current and future beneficial uses of the Basin in a manner that is adaptive and responsive to the following objectives:
• Provide a long-term, reliable and efficient groundwater supply for municipal, industrial, and other uses
• Provide reliable storage for water supply resilience during droughts and shortages • Protect groundwater quality
• Support beneficial uses of interconnected surface waters, and • Support integrated and cooperative water resource management.
This goal is consistent with SGMA and is based on information from the Plan Area, Hydrogeologic Conceptual Model, Groundwater Conditions, and Water Budget sections of this GSP that:
• Identify beneficial uses of Temescal Basin groundwater and document the roles of local water and land use agencies
• Describe the local hydrogeologic setting, groundwater quality conditions, groundwater levels and storage, and inflows and outflows of the Basin • Document the ongoing water resource monitoring and conjunctive management of groundwater, local surface water, recycled water, and especially imported water sources that help protect groundwater quality and maintain water supply.
A GSP must develop quantitative sustainability criteria for all applicable sustainability indicators that allow the GSA to define, measure, and track sustainable management. These criteria include the following:
• Undesirable Result – significant and unreasonable conditions for any of the six sustainability indicators.
• Minimum Threshold (MT) – numeric value used to define undesirable results for each sustainability indicator.
• Measurable Objective (MO) – specific, quantifiable goal to track the performance of sustainable management.
The sustainability indicators and sustainable management criteria are clearly defined and provide a quantitative analysis of the Basin’s sustainability. As the Basin has been managed without significant undesirable results, the following sustainability criteria are defined to avoid future undesirable results:
• The Minimum Threshold for defining undesirable results relative to chronic lowering of groundwater levels is defined at each Key Well by historical groundwater low levels. Undesirable results are indicated when two consecutive exceedances occur in each of two consecutive years, in sixty percent or more of the Key Wells.
Temescal Basin GSP ES-8
• The Minimum Threshold for reduction of groundwater storage for all Management Areas is fulfilled by the minimum threshold for groundwater levels as proxy. • The Minimum Threshold for subsidence is defined as a cumulative decline equal to or greater than one foot since 2015, which represents current conditions and the SGMA start date. This corresponds to a rate of decline equal to or greater than 0.2 feet in any five-year period.
• The Minimum Thresholds for degradation of water quality address nitrate and total dissolved solids (TDS) for the entire Basin.
o The Minimum Threshold for nitrate is defined initially as the percentage of wells with concentrations exceeding the nitrate MCL (45 mg/L) based on current conditions (2015-2019).
o The Minimum Threshold for TDS is defined initially as the percentage of wells with concentrations exceeding the TDS value of 1,000 mg/L based on current conditions (2015-2019).
• The Minimum Threshold for depletion of interconnected surface water is the amount of depletion that occurs when the depth to the water along the southern edge of the Prado Wetlands is greater than 15 feet for a period exceeding one year.
ES-6 MONITORING NETWORK
The monitoring network for GSP implementation has been established to document groundwater and related surface conditions as relevant to the sustainability indicators, MTs, and MOs. The components of the monitoring network are built from existing programs and will be carried out by the Temescal GSA.
The Temescal GSA, Corona specifically, has actively engaged in assessment and improvement of its monitoring network. This process has been intensified as part of the GSP, given the need to identify data gaps and to assess uncertainty in setting and tracking sustainability criteria. Monitoring improvements such as adding or replacing monitoring infrastructure are part of GSP implementation and will be reviewed and updated for each five-year GSP update.
ES-7 PROJECTS AND MANAGEMENT ACTIONS
During the preparation of the GSP, the Temescal GSA identified five specific management actions (Actions) and three projects (Projects) to achieve the sustainability goal. The Actions are generally focused on data collection, storage and reporting of information necessary to monitor sustainability, and assessment of when Actions may be necessary (i.e., when MTs are approached or exceeded). The projects are generally designed to reduce uncertainty in areas where data gaps have been identified during development of the GSP. These projects and management actions are aimed at achieving sustainability goals and responding to changing conditions in the Basin. The projects and management actions are divided into three groups:
• Group 1 - Existing or established projects and management actions o Groundwater Treatment
Temescal Basin GSP ES-9
o Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) Percolation Ponds
o Water Level Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) o Water Shortage Contingency Plans
o Water Conservation Program
o Participation in Integrated Regional Water Management Plans (IRWMP) o Western Riverside County Regional Wastewater Authority (WRCRWA) o Santa Ana Watershed Involvement
• Group 2 - Projects and management actions that have been or are under development
o Shallow Monitoring Well Installation
o Potable Reuse Feasibility Study
o Mountain Runoff Capture Feasibility Study
• Group 3 - Conceptual projects and management actions that can be considered in the future if any Group 2 projects fail to be implemented or additional intervention is required to achieve basin sustainability goals
o Groundwater Treatment
o Stormwater Capture, Treatment, and Recharge
o Santa Ana River Wastewater Discharge Coordination for Shallow The Projects and Actions will be implemented by a combination of existing resources from the three agencies within the Plan Area and contracted resources.
ES-8 IMPLEMENTATION
The official adoption of the GSP by the Temescal GSA will initiate Plan implementation. After submittal of the GSP to DWR, and during the DWR review period, the Temescal GSA will continue to communicate with stakeholders via the Corona’s website and begin implementing the projects and management actions described in this GSP. The Plan will be implemented to sustainably manage groundwater in the Basin under the authority of the Temescal GSA and its member agencies.
The Temescal GSA is required to submit an annual report to DWR by April 1st of each year following adoption of the GSP. The first annual report will be due in April of 2022. The Temescal GSA has committed to implementing the GSP upon adoption and completing the projects and management actions necessary to monitor and maintain sustainability within the first five years of initiation of the GSP.
Temescal Basin GSP 1-1
INTRODUCTION
The City of Corona (Corona) is actively managing the Temescal Subbasin (Basin) of the Upper Santa Ana River Groundwater Basin (Figure 1-1) in collaboration with the City of Norco (Norco) and Home Gardens County Water District (HGCWD). Corona, Norco, and HGCWD have previously participated in active management of water resources in the Basin. This management has included cooperation in preparing the 2008 Groundwater Management Plan (Todd and AKM 2008) and participation in regional planning and management. This historical experience provides a good foundation for continuation of groundwater management consistent with the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA).
Wishing to provide a framework for cooperative groundwater management and SGMA compliance Corona, Norco, and HGCWD executed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) in March 2017 (Appendix A) establishing the Temescal Basin Groundwater Sustainability Agency (Temescal GSA). In August 2017, the Temescal GSA became the GSA for the Basin by submitting a formation notice to the California Department of Water Resources (DWR). This notice included publication of the MOU and each individual party’s resolutions to become a GSA to DWR through the SGMA web portal. In the MOU, Corona has accepted the primary responsibility to develop a GSP for the Basin, to submit the GSP to DWR, and to prepare Annual Reports and GSP updates thereafter. While Corona is leading this effort, the GSP will be developed jointly among the three agencies, with coordinated implementation toward sustainable management.
The GSP reflects the rigorous, systematic process through which the Temescal GSA will manage the Basin. Figure 1-1 shows the Plan Area for this GSP, which encompasses the entire Basin.
Sustainable management of the Temescal Basin is critical to local water supply reliability.
The three local agencies (both individually and jointly) in the Temescal GSA have developed water supply portfolios including imported water, groundwater from multiple local basins, and reclaimed water for landscape irrigation. Water conservation measures also have been implemented (as documented in the recent Corona and Norco Urban Water Management Plans (Michael Baker 2021, Norco 2021)), providing an important tool for responding to water shortages. Local agencies are active in regional water management and recognize that local groundwater is a primary source of supply and needs to be reliable. The Temescal Basin area historically has experienced significant land use changes—shifting from agricultural to urban land uses—and subsequent water demand and supply changes. This transition was achieved in part with reliance on local groundwater. In fact, the Corona Groundwater Management Plan indicated that overdraft conditions occurred in the Temescal Basin during the last three years of the 1990 to 2004 period as pumping increased.
While conditions subsequently improved, this illustrates that overdraft can occur. Concerns about water supply reliability persist, given the uncertainties of imported water and climate change. Moreover, groundwater quality generally is poor; in fact, sustainable groundwater use is dependent on treatment at the Temescal Desalter. SGMA and the GSP process provide an important set of tools for Corona and the Temescal GSA partners to address these conditions and plan for water supply reliability into the future.
Temescal Basin GSP 1-2
1.1. PURPOSE OF THE GROUNDWATER SUSTAINABILITY PLAN
The purpose of this GSP is to assess water resource and land use conditions within the Basin, through an open and collaborative process, and to implement management activities to achieve (or maintain) long-term groundwater sustainability as defined by SGMA.
The GSP assesses sustainability related to each of the six SGMA defined sustainability criteria listed below:
• Lowering Groundwater Levels
• Reduction of Groundwater Storage
• Seawater Intrusion
• Degraded Water Quality
• Land Subsidence
• Surface Water Depletion.
The GSP presents conditions in the Basin relevant to each of these categories, defines thresholds for maintaining sustainability, outlines groundwater monitoring protocols, and management actions and projects designed to improve monitoring capabilities and/or to protect and enhance groundwater conditions. The GSP also includes a schedule and cost estimate for GSP implementation. Each element of the GSP is designed to promote Basin health and achieve and maintain the sustainability goal established for the Basin by the GSA.
1.2. SUSTAINABILITY GOAL
The sustainability goal is to sustain groundwater resources for the current and future beneficial uses of the Basin in a manner that is adaptive and responsive to the following objectives:
• Provide a long-term, reliable, and efficient groundwater supply for municipal, industrial, and other uses
• Provide reliable storage for water supply resilience during droughts and shortages • Protect groundwater quality
• Support beneficial uses of interconnected surface waters, and • Support integrated and cooperative water resource management.
1.3. AGENCY INFORMATION
The GSA agencies collaborated on preparation of this GSP, as described in the March 2017 MOU between the agencies. The City of Corona, City of Norco, and HGCWD each passed resolutions to authorize the MOU to establish the GSA:
• City of Corona - On March 15, 2017, Corona held a public hearing to determine whether to become a GSA, and adopted Resolution No. 2017-013, electing to jointly become a GSA with Norco and HGCWD.
• Norco - On March 15, 2017, Norco held a public hearing to determine whether to become a GSA, and adopted Resolution No. 2017-12, electing to jointly become a GSA with Corona and HGCWD.
Temescal Basin GSP 1-3
• HGCWD - On March 23, 2017, HGCWD held a public hearing to determine whether to become a GSA, and, by minute action, elected to jointly become a GSA with Corona and Norco.
On May 10, 2017, Temescal GSA submitted to DWR a Notice of Decision to Become a Groundwater Sustainability Agency, along with required information including a boundary map of the GSA and a list of interested parties. After the 90-day review period, on August 8, 2017, Temescal GSA became the groundwater sustainability agency for the Basin.
As required by GSP Regulations §354.6 and SGMA §10723.8, the Notices of Decision to become a Groundwater Sustainability Agency are included in Appendix B. These each include the resolution, list of interested parties, and boundary map.

1.4. GROUNDWATER SUSTAINABILITY AGENCY INFORMATION
As described above, the Temescal GSA was formed through a MOU between Corona, Norco, and HGCWD to act as the GSA for the Basin (Temescal Subbasin of the Upper Santa Ana Valley Basin, Basin Number 8-002.09), which is a DWR-designated medium priority basin.
The Temescal GSA is dedicated to participating in the collective goal of reaching groundwater sustainability in California.
Corona, Norco, and HGCWD have relied on groundwater from the Basin for municipal use for decades. In 2008, Corona adopted a Groundwater Management Plan that covers the entire Basin.
1.4.1. Decision Making
As detailed in the MOU, decisions in by the Temescal GSA are reached by unanimous consent of the parties; however, if unanimous consent is not possible, a majority vote of the three agencies rules.
1.4.2. Roles and Responsibilities
The MOU also documents the responsibilities of the individual agencies, including:
• Corona shall have the primary responsibility to develop a GSP within the boundaries of the Temescal GSA and submit the GSP to DWR for review and evaluation.Corona shall also have the primary responsibility to prepare and submit the annual and five year reports to DWR pursuant to SGMA and DWR’s implementing regulations.
Temescal Basin GSP 1-4
• The parties will work jointly to fulfill the purpose of the MOU within the boundaries of the Temescal GSA.
• The parties will meet regularly to discuss SGMA, GSP development, and implementation activities, assignments, and ongoing work progress. • The parties may form committees as necessary from time to time to discuss issues that impact the Temescal GSA.
• Corona is responsible for implementing the GSP in areas of the Temescal GSA that are within Corona’s service area boundaries and within Corona’s sphere of influence.
• Norco is responsible for implementing the GSP in areas of the Temescal GSA that are within Norco’s service area boundaries.
• HGCWD is responsible for implementing the GSP in areas of the Temescal GSA that are within HGCWD’s service area boundaries.
1.4.3. Legal Authority of the GSA
The GSA has authority to develop a GSP and implement SGMA in the Temescal Basin. SGMA specifies additional enabling powers; for example, GSAs may choose to adopt standards for measuring and reporting water use, develop and implement metering, and manage extraction from individual wells.
Corona’s Authority. Corona is a local agency qualified to become a GSA because Corona manages water, has a water supply, and has land use responsibilities over a portion of the Basin.
Norco’s Authority. Norco is also a local agency qualified to become a GSA because Norco manages water, has a water supply, and has land use responsibilities over a portion of the Basin.
HGCWD’s Authority. HGCWD is also a local agency qualified to become a GSA because HGCWD is a county water district formed and operating pursuant to and in accordance with Division 12 of the California Water Code that manages water, has a water supply and overlies a portion of the Basin.
Those portions of the Basin outside of these service areas are not within the area of any other proposed GSA. While the service areas of Corona, Norco, and HGCWD do not cover the entire Basin, these agencies do propose to serve as the GSA for the entire Basin. The three agencies in the GSA are coordinating with Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (RCFCWCD) for these currently unmanaged areas. Specifically, the RCFCWCD recognized the ongoing efforts for this GSA and offered to participate in any advisory or stakeholder committee formed by the GSA.
1.4.4. GSP Development Costs and Funding Sources
In November 2017, the City of Corona applied for a Sustainable Groundwater Management Planning (SGMP) Grant to fund preparation of this GSP. In April 2018, DWR awarded the City of Corona with full funding of $732,338.
Temescal Basin GSP 1-5
Each party will be financially responsible for collecting data or information from within that party’s service area that is required to be provided for development of the GSP. Norco and HGCWD will not incur any financial expense related to development of the GSP and submittal of the GSP to the DWR.
Implementation costs include costs to continue monitoring as described in Chapter 7, implement management actions and projects as described in Chapter 8, and complete annual reports and periodic GSP evaluation and updates as required by SGMA. As summarized in Chapter 9, total annual costs (2021 dollars) are estimated at approximately $100,000 per year and single occurrence costs for projects and management actions anticipated to occur in the first five years of GSP implementation and the first periodic GSP evaluation and update total approximately $515,000 to $575,000 (2021 dollars).
The funding method for operating expenses and GSP implementation costs is by contributions by GSA member agencies (Corona, Norco, and HGCWD). This is the same mechanism utilized to fund development of the GSP (with significant supplemental contribution though California Proposition 1 Grant funding). Corona will be responsible for most of the ongoing implementation costs, which are within budget projections for the next several years. Funding for planning and implementation of some projects and management actions may be achieved with local, state, and federal sources. The local agencies track opportunities for outside financing (grants or loans) from state water programs and federal infrastructure funding. For local financing, the agencies update their financial plans and rates as needed.

This chapter provides a general description of the Temescal Baasin Groundwater Sustainability Plan Area (GSP Area, Plan Area or Basin), consistent with GSP Regulations §354.8, and is organized into the follow sections:
• Geographic Area
• Jurisdictional Agencies
• Water Supply
• Water Resources Monitoring and Management Programs
• General Plans
• Additional GSP Elements
• Notice and Communication
The description of the Plan Area was developed from previous reports and studies, including the 2008 Groundwater Management Plan (2008 GWMP) for the City of Corona (Corona) (Todd and AKM 2008).
2.1. GEOGRAPHIC AREA
The GSP Area is the Temescal Subbasin of the Upper Santa Ana Valley Groundwater Basin (DWR 2016b) located in Riverside County. The Temescal Subbasin (Basin) underlies the southwest portion of the upper Santa Ana Valley, as shown on Figure 2-1.
The GSP Area is coincident with the Basin and covers approximately 23,500 acres or 37 square miles. The Basin borders the Chino Subbasin to the north, the Riverside-Arlington Subbasin to the east, the Bedford-Coldwater Subbasin of the Elsinore Basin to the south, and the Coastal Plain Subbasin of the Orange County Basin to the west. These adjacent basins are shown on Figures 2-1.
In general, the Basin is bounded by the Santa Ana River to the north, the El Sobrante de San Jacinto and La Sierra Hills and the Riverside-Arlington Subbasin to the east, the Santa Ana Mountains to the west, and Bedford-Coldwater Subbasin to the south (DWR 2016b).
2.2. LAND USE AND WATER MANAGEMENT JURISDICTIONAL
AGENCIES
Land use and land management activities can influence water demands, recharge potential, and water quality. This section identifies and describes the agencies with land use management responsibilities within the Basin. Detailed discussion of land use planning and policies relevant to groundwater management is included in Section 2.6. In general, these agencies can be categorized as follows:
• Counties
• Cities
• Federal
Temescal Basin GSP 2-2
• State
• Conservation Easements
• Water Management Entities.
The jurisdictional boundaries for agencies that have land use management responsibilities in the Basin are shown on Figures 2-2 and 2-3.
2.2.1. Counties
The Basin lies within the northwestern portion of Riverside County. Riverside County has jurisdiction for land use planning for unincorporated areas in the County. Small portions of the Basin along its northwestern side are unincorporated areas in Riverside County.
Riverside County also has responsibility for on-site wastewater treatment systems (i.e., septic systems) through its Department of Environmental Health. Riverside County Department of Environmental Health (RCDEH) is also responsible for regulation of the construction, destruction, and maintenance of groundwater wells.
2.2.2. Cities
The Basin is almost entirely overlaid by Corona’s sphere of influence and the City of Norco (Norco). Corona and Norco have land use planning authority within their respective boundaries. General plan elements relevant to the GSP are discussed in Section 2.6. In addition to land use planning, the cities of Corona and Norco are responsible for stormwater management for their respective jurisdictions, which can impact basin recharge and therefore shallow ground water quality.
2.2.3. Federal
Federal Lands in the Basin, presented on Figure 2-3, include small portions of the northwestern Basin owned by the Department of Defense. Land along the southwestern edge of the Basin is US Forest Service (USFS) Cleveland National Forest and other federal Non-Forest Service Land within USFS. Resource management efforts in the Cleveland National Forest target fire, ecology, archaeological resources, and recreational resources.
These management activities can impact basin recharge, surface run-off, and surface and groundwater quality.
Prado Dam lies in the northwest corner of the Basin and is owned and operated by the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers. The Prado Dam and Reservoir is the principle regulating structure on the Santa Ana River.
2.2.4. State
State Lands in the Basin are presented on Figure 2-3. A very small portion of northwestern edge of the Basin is in the Chino Hills State Park.
Temescal Basin GSP 2-3
2.2.5. Conservation Easements
Conservation easements for the Dos Lagos Golf Course, Temescal Canyon, and Lee Lake are held by the Riverside-Corona Resource Conservation District (RCRCD) just to the south of the Basin. RCRCD aims to conserve natural resources, including soil, water, plants, and wildlife in western Riverside and San Bernardino counties. RCRCD activities include conducting conservation projects, educating the community, and providing technical advice to land users.
Additionally, there is a 13-acre Fresno Canyon conservation easement that partially overlaps a small area of the westernmost portion of the Basin.
2.2.6. Water Management Entities
While Corona and Norco are the primary water suppliers in the Basin, other water management entities have jurisdictional and/or monitoring and management responsibilities in the Basin.
The Riverside County Flood Control and Water Conservation District (Flood Control District) is located in the western portion of Riverside County and overlies the Basin. The Flood Control District regulates development in relation to floodplains and drainage, identifies potential flood hazards, and constructs flood control structures.
The Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority (SAWPA) is a joint power authority formed of several water agencies in the Santa Ana River watershed aimed at protecting the watershed and maximizing beneficial uses within the watershed. SAWPA focuses on water resource issues including water supply reliability, water quality improvement, recycled water, wastewater treatment, groundwater management, brine disposal, and integrated regional planning. SAWPA also administers the Basin Monitoring Program Task Force for the watershed, which monitors and reports surface water quality as well as produces Santa Ana River Wasteload Allocation Model Reports. These monitoring and reporting activities are necessary to determine compliance with the nitrogen and total dissolved solids (TDS) objectives for the watershed.
The Orange County Water District (OCWD) owns and operates the Prado Wetlands, 2,150 acres of constructed wetlands behind the Prado Dam, located just north of the northeast corner of the Basin. These wetlands improve water quality in the Santa Ana River by removing nitrate from the water.
Chino Basin Watermaster manages groundwater in the adjacent basin, Chino Basin (Upper Santa Ana Valley Basin 8-002.01). Chino Basin is upgradient of Temescal Basin and groundwater management in Chino will likely impact Temescal Basin. The GSA has been in communication with Chino Basin Watermaster through the GSP preparation process.
Temescal Basin GSP 2-4
2.3. WATER SUPPLY
Water supply for municipal and industrial uses include groundwater and imported water from the Western Municipal Water District (WMWD). In addition, recycled water is used for non-potable uses. The water providers within the Basin and additional detail on their various water sources are described in the following sections.
2.3.1. Water Providers
Corona serves water to the majority of the population within the Basin. Norco and the Home Gardens County Water District (HGCWD) serve water to smaller portions of the Basin.
Corona provides water and wastewater services to residential, institutional, commercial, and industrial customers within the city as well as to the unincorporated communities of El Cerrito, Coronita, and parts of Temescal Canyon. Corona’s water service area encompasses approximately 39 square miles. Corona’s water sources include groundwater pumped from the Basin and the Coldwater Subbasin and imported water purchased from WMWD.
Norco is the sole water purveyor for the residents and businesses within its city boundaries, which encompass approximately 15 square miles. Norco purchases imported water from WMWD, purchases desalinated groundwater from the Chino Desalter Authority (CDA), and pumps groundwater from the Basin.
HGCWD serves water to a portion of the census-designated place of HGCWD and purchases all water from Corona.
The 2020 water supplies for each water purveyor from each water source are shown on Figure 2-4. Purchased imported water and groundwater from the Basin make up 53 percent and 47 percent of Corona’s supply, respectively (Michael Baker 2021). Purchased imported water and groundwater from the Chino Subbasin make up 93 percent and 7 percent of Norco’s supply, respectively (Norco 2021). Purchased imported water makes up 100 percent of the supply for HGCWD. Note that all of HGCWD purchased supply and a portion of Norco’s purchased supply are from Corona and are thus included in Corona’s total supply. It should be noted that these water supply distributions are based on year 2020 only and typically vary from year to year.
2.3.2. Water Supply Sources
2.3.2.1. Groundwater
Corona is the primary producer of groundwater in the Basin. Corona has 18 wells that extract water from the Basin for the purpose of potable water supply (Michael Baker 2021).
Norco has four active wells but they are located in the unadjudicated portion of the Chino Subbasin not the Basin.
A number of private wells were historically installed in the Basin. Well densities for domestic wells, production wells, public wells, and all groundwater wells completed and reported to DWR are shown on Figures 2-5, 2-6, 2-7, and 2-8 respectively. Well density varies throughout the Basin from 0 to 15 wells per square mile section. These well density maps
Temescal Basin GSP 2-5
show all the well completion reports that have been submitted to DWR over time. There are no records of which of these wells are currently active. However, the GSA agencies searched for existing active wells within the Basin. This search included reviewing water use records and contacting owners of large private properties (domestic, commercial, and industrial), inquiring about private wells in discussions with knowledgeable local residents and community leaders, and polling interested parties during public meetings. This effort indicated that the only private pumpers in the Basin are All American Asphalt, Dart Corporation, and 3M. No active private domestic wells were identified in this search.
Corona owns and operates the 10 million gallons per day (mgd) Temescal Desalter, a reverse osmosis (RO) treatment facility where groundwater from the Basin high in TDS is forced oneway through membranes that reject salts as waste brine. Corona then blends this water with locally produced groundwater. The location of the Temescal Desalter is shown along with other Corona water and wastewater facilities in Figure 2-9.
In addition to pumping groundwater from the Basin, Norco purchases groundwater from the CDA, which is extracted from the Chino Subbasin. This water purchase is further described in Section 2.3.2.3.
2.3.2.2. Local Surface Water
No surface water is used as a water supply source within the Basin. Just to the south of the Basin, Corona utilizes surface flows from Coldwater Canyon in percolation basins and then extracts groundwater from the Coldwater portion of the Bedford-Coldwater Subbasin.
2.3.2.3. Purchased or Imported Water
The Basin’s primary sources of imported water are supplied through WMWD, a member agency of Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Met). Imported water supply from WMWD consists of treated surface water, untreated surface water and desalinated brackish groundwater.
WMWD supplies treated surface water via the Mills Pipeline from Henry J. Mills filtration plant. The Mills Pipeline delivers treated water directly to Corona through metered turnout WR-24. This connection has an effective capacity of 6.5 mgd (Michael Baker 2021). Norco also receives water from WMWD via the Mills Pipeline, which is then wheeled through a metered connection from Corona to Norco (Norco 2021).
WMWD supplies untreated surface water via the Lower Feeder. The Lower Feeder supplies raw water to Corona’s Lester Water Treatment Plant through metered turnout WR-19 and to Corona’s Sierra del Oro Water Treatment Plant through metered turnout WR-33. The Lester Plant has a peak capacity of 30 mgd, and the Sierra del Oro Plant has a peak capacity of 9.0 mgd (Michael Baker 2021).
WMWD supplies desalinated brackish groundwater via the Arlington Desalter to both Corona and Norco. Norco entered into a purchase water agreement with WMWD to purchase a minimum of 4,400 acre-feet per year (AFY) of treated groundwater annually from the Arlington Desalter reverse-osmosis treatment facility (Norco 2021). Excess production from the desalter is made available to Corona (Michael Baker 2021).
Temescal Basin GSP 2-6
Norco is a member agency of the CDA, a Joint Powers of Authority. Norco has an annual obligation to purchase 1,000 AFY of reverse osmosis treated potable groundwater water from CDA (City of Norco 2021).
The City of Corona operates well(s) for HGCWD and supplies them with all their water supply.
The reliability of imported water is documented in WMWD’s 2020 UWMP (WSC 2021). The WMWD UWMP details the potential constraints facing Met, the wholesaler that provides most of the imported water supply for WMWD, Corona, and Norco. Various past and ongoing actions address the water supply threats including water conservation, increased storage programs, and augmenting water supplies. Because of their robust planning efforts, WMWD’s UWMP indicates there would be 99 percent of supply available in a single dry year and 100 percent of supply in multiple dry years. In addition, Corona maintains a two-way connection with the City of Riverside that can be used in the event of an emergency.
2.3.2.4. Recycled Water
As shown on Figure 2-9, three wastewater reclamation facilities are located in the Basin.
Existing reclaimed water supply is provided by three Water Reclamation Facilities (WRF1, WRF2 and WRF3) and two non-potable wells owned and operated by Corona. The average annual production from these sources is approximately 11.35 mgd or 12,700 AFY. Corona is a member of the Western Riverside County Regional Wastewater Authority (WRCRWA), which operates a new wastewater reclamation facility in Eastvale. When WRCRWA is fully implemented, Corona’s level of recycled water production will stay the same. However, the location of sources of supply will shift to the north and Corona will have access to additional recycled water supply from WRCRWA (Corona 2018).
Norco is also a member of WRCRWA but does not currently receive and distribute recycled water.
2.3.2.5. Conjunctive Use/Managed Recharge/In-Lieu Recharge In 2013, Corona prepared a Recharge Master Plan (RMP) for the Basin that defines the groundwater management objectives for the Basin. The RMP lays out goals and alternatives for artificial recharge in the Basin. Implementation of the RMP is ongoing. Corona currently discharges tertiary treated effluent from its Wastewater Treatment Plants No. 1 and No. 2 to the Lincoln/Cota Ponds, where the effluent is either lost to evapotranspiration or percolated to groundwater (WEI 2013).
2.3.3. Water Use Sectors
Water use sectors are defined in the GSP Regulations as categories of water demand based on the general land uses to which the water is applied, including urban, industrial, agricultural, managed wetlands, managed recharge, and native vegetation.
The distribution of current land use types in the Basin is presented on Figure 2-10. While the land use types are more detailed than the water sector categories, the land use mapping provides relevant background information for understanding the various water uses and
Temescal Basin GSP 2-7
locations of these uses in the Basin. A significant portion of the Basin is characterized as single-family residential land use. The next most common land use type within the Basin is industrial. Water use and land use by sector for Corona, Norco, and the Basin are presented in Table 2-1.
Table 2-1. Water Use and Land Use by Sector (2020)
1 Water Use Sector Corona Water Use Norco Water Use Basin Land Use Urban2 87 percent 82 percent 70 percent
Industrial3 13 percent 18 percent 11 percent
Agricultural 0 percent 0 percent 1 percent
Managed Wetlands 0 percent 0 percent 0 percent
Managed Recharge 0 percent 0 percent 0 percent
Native Vegetation 0 percent 0 percent 18 percent
Notes:
1) Water use data is provided by Corona and Norco’s Urban Water Management Plans (UWMPs) (Michael Baker 2021 and Norco 2021) and land use data is based on an analysis of the land use parcels included in the Basin as shown in Figure 2-10.
2) Urban water use for Corona does not include commercial uses, which is reported as combined with industrial. 3) Industrial water use includes commercial uses.
2.4. WATER RESOURCES MONITORING PROGRAMS
This section summarizes the following water resources monitoring activities in the Basin:
• Climate
• Surface Water Flow
• Surface Water Quality
• Groundwater Levels
• Groundwater Quality

Corona, Norco, other local agencies, state agencies and federal agencies are responsible for the various monitoring programs, which are summarized briefly below (Sections 2.4.1 through 2.4.12).
Temescal Basin GSP 2-8
2.4.1. Climate
The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Division of Drinking Water (DDW) compiles climate data in the California Irrigation Management Information System (CIMIS).
This database includes total solar radiation, soil temperature, air temperature/relative humidity, wind direction, wind speed, and precipitation. While the CIMIS database is a comprehensive source for climate data, there are no CIMIS stations in the Basin. The closest CIMIS stations are:
• Chino No. 255 - This station is located north of the Basin (Latitude: 33.985350, Longitude: -117.656528).
• U.C. Riverside No. 44 - This station is located east of the Basin (Latitude: 33.964942, Longitude: -117.33698).
2.4.2. Surface Water Flows
United States Geological Survey (USGS) owns and operates two streamflow gauges in the Basin. These include:
• TEMESCAL C AB MAIN ST A CORONA CA (11072100) - This station is located on the Temescal Creek near Main Street in Corona.
• SANTA ANA R BL PRADO DAM CA (11074000) - This station is located along the Santa Ana River below Prado Dam.
2.4.3. Surface Water Quality
Corona and Norco are both members of the Middle Santa Ana River Watershed Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Task Force. The Task Force is a collaborative effort of publicand private-sector agencies and interests focused on the development of pathogen TMDLs for Santa Ana River Reach 3, its tributaries, and other water bodies in the Chino Basin area, located immediately north of the Basin. Formed in 2007, the Task Force has been working on several pathogen-related activities and studies for the Chino Basin. The objectives of this Task Force are to implement a number of tasks identified by the Regional Board in their 2005 Amendment to the water quality control plan (Basin Plan) (SWRCB 2020a). These include the implementation of a watershed-wide monitoring program to assess compliance with water contact recreation (REC-1) beneficial use water quality objectives for fecal coliform, evaluate numeric targets established for E. coli, and identify and implement measures to control sources of impairment. The Task Force works with the Regional Board in the formulation of pathogen TMDL allocation and implementation strategies (SAWPA 2018).
The Upper Temescal Valley Salt and Nutrient Management Plan (SNMP) developed by Elsinore Valley Municipal Water District and Eastern Municipal Water District includes several management actions, one of which is the implementation of a monitoring program.
This monitoring program includes seven surface water monitoring sites, one of which is in the GSP Area. This privately-owned continuous flow gage is located at the All American Aggregate pit in Corona, the discharge point of the Temescal Wash (WEI 2017).
