Caveats and Assurances

1. The ability for any individual purveyor to implement the surface water diversions principles will depend on their respective opportunities and constraints.

2. In circumstances where excess water is made available by USBR Article 3(f) of a purveyor’s Water Repayment Contract or by a Section 215 Contract between the purveyor and USBR due to ﬂood control operations at Folsom Reservoir, for the purposes of groundwater recharge, that water would not be counted as diversion water within their PSA, regardless of year type.

3. Acknowledge that the duty of a water purveyor is to provide an aﬀordable, reliable, and high- quality water supply to its customers.

4. Agree that evolving regulatory conditions may trigger changed conditions and Water Forum commitments shall evolve to adapt to those changed conditions.

5. Acknowledge that the achievement of the coequal objectives must consider ramiﬁcations on water aﬀordability, reliability, availability, and quality.

6. Continue to utilize SSWD’s conjunctive use program in a discretionary manner to ensure a safe and reliable water supply is maintained.

San Juan Water District Consortium
Purveyor Specific Agreement
(Includes Citrus Heights Water District, Fair Oaks Water District, Orange Vale Water Company, San Juan Water District, and a portion of the City of Folsom) Updated: January 8, 2026
Purveyor Background
San Juan Water District’s (SJWD) wholesale service area is composed of the SJWD’s retail service area located in both Sacramento and Placer Counties, Citrus Heights Water District (CHWD), Fair Oaks Water District (FOWD), Orange Vale Water Company (OVWC), and a portion of the City of Folsom. These referenced Districts and the relevant portion of the City of Folsom are hereinafter collectively referred to as “the SJWD Consortium”.

SJWD’s wholesale surface water supplies consist of three sources – 33,000 acre-feet (AF) per year of water rights allocations (vintages 1854 and 1928), up to 25,000 AF/year in a water supply agreement with Placer County Water Agency for water from their Middle Fork Project, and 24,200 AF/year of Central Valley Project water supplies in a repayment contract with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation). The water-right water must be provided by Reclamation without diminution, pursuant to a 1954 settlement agreement with SJWD. The other two sources are subject to shortage provisions, but only Reclamation has ever implemented shortage allocations.

These sources of water are all delivered through a municipal and industrial (M&I) intake in Folsom Dam, which is at an elevation that would be subject to air entrainment at approximately 110,000 AF of storage in Folsom Reservoir. All of SJWD’s surface water is diverted from the Folsom Reservoir and treated at the Sidney N. Peterson Treatment Plant. Treated water is then stored in a 62-million-gallon treated storage reservoir.

CHWD and FOWD supplement their surface water supply with groundwater. OVWC may supplement its supply with groundwater in the future. Additional supplies may be available from other sources, via interconnections.

SJWD’s projected 2030 surface water demand in the 2000 Water Forum Agreement was 82,200 AF/year (the full complement of SJWD’s water supplies). In a conference year, under the 2000 Agreement, SJWD’s projected surface water demands would decrease to 54,200 AF/year, which was also the baseline surface water use reported by SJWD for 1995. This use increased in SJWD’s wholesale service area to 57,900

Page 973 of 1107 ends

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 San Juan Water District Consortium PSA 271

AF/year by 2004 but has since declined to 32,700 AF/year in 2022 (a reduction of 44%). Even if groundwater use in SJWD’s wholesale area is included (a total of 7,200 AF, including a total of 4,000 AF of incremental groundwater pumping for the groundwater substitution transfer in 2022), the total use would be 31% lower than in 2004 (even assuming minimal groundwater use that year).

Surface Water and Groundwater Management
Baseline diversions are those described in SJWD’s 2020 Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP), for total and surface water use in 2020. The baseline for the SJWD’s American River diversion is 40,642 AF total and 36,301 AF of surface water diversions.

Agreement for meeting the SJWD Consortium’s water supply needs to the year 2040:

1. Normal years
As it applies to the SJWD Consortium’s portion of the agreement, normal years is deﬁned as follows:
years when the projected March through November unimpaired inﬂow to Folsom Reservoir is greater than 950,000 AF.

In normal years, SJWD will divert and the SJWD Consortium will use no more than 38,603 AF of surface water supplies for customer requirements within the current SJWD wholesale service area. Additional surface water supplies may be used for banking purposes.

2. Drier years
As it applies to the SJWD Consortium’s portion of the agreement, drier years is deﬁned as follows: years when the projected March through November unimpaired inﬂow to Folsom Reservoir is less than 950,000 AF and equal to or greater than 400,000 AF.

In drier years, SJWD will divert and the SJWD Consortium will use a decreasing amount of surface water from 38,603 AF to 30,882 AF within the current SJWD wholesale service area. During drier years, the SJWD Consortium will reduce its surface water demand by additional conservation (up to 20% or as required by the Districts’ Water Shortage Contingency Plans) and potential increased use of groundwater.

3. Driest years
Deﬁned for purposes of the Water Forum Agreement 2050 as follows: years when the projected March through November unimpaired inﬂow to Folsom Reservoir is less than 400,000 AF.

In the driest years, SJWD will reduce its diversion to no more than 30,882 AF for use within the current SJWD wholesale service area, which is lower than its baseline amount. During driest years the SJWD Consortium will reduce its surface water demand by additional conservation (up to 20% or as required by the Districts’ Water Shortage Contingency Plans) and potential increased use of groundwater.

In addition, it is recognized that in years when the projected unimpaired inﬂow to Folsom Reservoir falls below 750,000 AF, there may not be suﬃcient water available to provide the purveyors with the drier or driest years quantities speciﬁed in their Purveyor Speciﬁc Agreements (PSA) and provide the expected driest years ﬂows to the mouth of the American River. In those years, the SJWD Consortium will participate in a conference with other stakeholders on how the available water should be managed. The

conferees will be guided by the conference year principles described in Chapter 4, Section I of the Water Forum Agreement.

Demand Management
As noted in the Demand Management element of this Agreement, “All purveyors commit to abiding by the relevant conservation and water use eﬃciency regulations.” The SJWD Consortium agencies reiterate that commitment in this PSA. The speciﬁc measures that the SJWD Consortium agencies will take to meet these obligations have yet to be deﬁned, and they will evolve over time as the diﬀerent regulatory requirements come into eﬀect. Those measures will be described in the documents referenced below.

However, at the time of the signing of the Water Forum Agreement, the San Juan Consortium agencies do anticipate that a major focus of their programs will be on the use of water on irrigated landscapes, and on assisting their customers in reducing this category of use, to the extent that such reductions are necessary and appropriate to allow SJWD Consortium agencies to meet the requirements of the conservation regulations. The SJWD Consortium agencies will consider the various tools and techniques listed in the Appendix as they develop the suite of actions that they may take to facilitate the required changes in water use on landscapes by their customers.

The SJWD Consortium operates extensive demand management programs throughout the service areas of its members, as well as regionally, partly through the programs operated by the Regional Water Authority (RWA). Information about RWA’s demand management programs is available at the following locations:

That information is available for SJWD Consortium agencies and all aﬀected urban water agencies at DWR’s statewide library website, under the “Urban Water Use Objective Reporting” section, at the following link: https://wuedata.water.ca.gov/.

Demand management and conservation program information is available in the annual water supply and demand assessments that are submitted by water agencies (including SJWD Consortium members).

Those reports are available on DWR’s statewide library webpage, under the “Water Shortage Assessment Reports” section.

The members of the SJWD Consortium will update their water conservation ordinances to include the requirements of AB 1572 before January 1, 2027, as required by that statute.

Critically Low Storage Conditions
SJWD’s sources of water are all delivered through a municipal and industrial (M&I) intake in Folsom Dam, which is at an elevation that would be subject to air entrainment at approximately 110,000 AF of storage in Folsom Reservoir. Because this entrainment could result in signiﬁcant damage to the impellers of the pumps that Reclamation uses to pump the supplies brought through the intake to SJWD, Roseville, and Folsom, this level of storage is one variation of “dead pool” being discussed in the Water Forum. This version of “dead pool” has never occurred.

If the water level drops below the M&I intake, Reclamation would use an emergency pump on one of the three power penstocks in the dam to deliver water to Roseville and SJWD and ﬂoating barges to deliver water to Folsom. The emergency pump has a capacity of 60 cfs (43,500 AF/year), and the barges have a capacity of 30 cfs. These facilities would allow Reclamation to access water in Folsom Reservoir between the 110,000 AF at which the M&I intake goes dry and the approximately 55,000 AF storage level at which the power penstocks go dry – a second version of “dead pool”.

Project List and Future Water Supply Reliability Eﬀorts Projects for which the SJWD Consortium requests conceptual endorsement by all signatories:

1. Infrastructure repair and replacement projects

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 A1-1
Appendix 1: Advancing the Seven Elements of the First
Water Forum Agreement
The ﬁrst Water Forum Agreement (WFA), signed in the year 2000, included seven key elements that represent the strategies members used to meet the coequal objectives of water supply reliability and environmental stewardship. Over the past 20 years, these strategies shaped water management in the Sacramento region, addressing both immediate needs and long-term sustainability.

1. Increased Surface Water Diversions

2. Dry Year Actions

3. Flow Standard

4. Habitat Management

5. Water Conservation

6. Groundwater Management

7. Water Forum Successor Eﬀort (WFSE)
The WF2050 Agreement restructures the original seven elements into ﬁve program areas. The following section outlines the original seven elements from the ﬁrst WFA and highlights the progress made under each.

1. Increased Surface Water Diversions
The ﬁrst WFA detailed plans to increase surface water supplies from rivers to support Sacramento's anticipated population and economic growth through 2030. Recognizing that conservation and sustainable groundwater use alone would not meet projected future demand, the agreement speciﬁed the amount of surface water each provider would divert during average, wet, dry, and very dry years, as well as the necessary infrastructure and projects to meet customer demand. Additionally, the agreement included emergency ﬂow strategies to protect salmon and steelhead, as well as measures to reduce river water demand by shifting to groundwater and enhancing conservation eﬀorts.

Progress: This element played a crucial role, alongside the WFA’s Groundwater Management strategy, in restoring the region’s groundwater basin to sustainable levels. By committing to increased surface water use during wet times, water providers allowed groundwater levels to recover. Over the past 20 years, regional groundwater levels have stabilized or risen in many areas.

For example, the Sacramento County Water Agency (SCWA), which was once completely dependent on groundwater, increased its surface water use by 29 percent in 2023 compared to the previous year, thanks to the Freeport Water Intake, a project outlined in the WFA. This shift stored approximately 10,220 acre-feet of groundwater in aquifers, enough to meet the annual needs of over 30,600 households.

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 A1-2

2. Dry Year Actions
The "Dry Year Actions" section of the WFA was designed to help ensure suﬃcient water supplies during dry years for people while also protecting the environment of the American River. The agreement outlined increased water diversions from the American River in wet and average years, but during dry years, water providers agreed to reduce these diversions to protect ﬁsh, wildlife, and recreation on the river. To compensate for reduced river water in dry years, water providers planned to use strategies such as increasing groundwater use, re-operating reservoirs, increasing conservation, and utilizing recycled water. Each provider had speciﬁc targets for reducing river water use in dry years, which were detailed in the agreement.

Progress: This element was successfully tested over the years and particularly during California’s extreme drought in 2014-15. Members worked together to reduce demands on the river by increasing groundwater use, boosting water conservation eﬀorts, and reoperating reservoirs upstream of Folsom Reservoir. Through the Water Forum’s Dry Year Conference, members also worked together to advise the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation on emergency ﬂow strategies for Folsom Reservoir, aiming to minimize harm to salmon and steelhead as water levels in the lower American River reached historic lows.

3. Flow Standard
The WFA included plans to establish a new ﬂow standard for the lower American River that would improve water releases to better support ﬁsh, especially fall-run Chinook salmon, while also preserving water storage in Folsom Reservoir to safeguard against drought.

Historically, water releases from Folsom Dam did not align with the ﬁsh's life cycle, negatively impacting the ﬁshery. To address this, a team of ﬁsh biologists and experts from agencies such as the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the California Department of Fish and Wildlife collaborated with the Water Forum to design a release pattern that prioritized the needs of the ﬁsh, while still meeting the reservoir’s water supply and ﬂood control objectives.

This new approach involved reducing summer ﬂows to conserve water for increased releases in the fall, to provide better water conditions for salmon. The plan also included ﬂexibility for adjustments based on real-time environmental needs.

Progress: In 2006, the Water Forum published the ﬁrst Flow Management Standard (FMS) for the lower American River . The FMS utilizes the best available science to establish targets for minimum river ﬂows and cold-water storage at Folsom Reservoir, aiming to preserve water storage, mitigate drought impacts, and enhance water temperature in the Lower American River for the beneﬁt of salmon and steelhead. Since then, this science-based methodology has evolved with advancements in modeling and technical analysis, as well as real-world experience. After nearly 20 years of study and reﬁnement, the Modiﬁed FMS is now recognized as the best path forward for protecting and restoring steelhead and fall-run Chinook salmon in the lower American River, while enhancing local water supply reliability without adverse impacts elsewhere in the state.

Page 987 of 1107 ends

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 A1-3
The Modiﬁed FMS is integrated into the most recent federal Biological Opinion, guiding the operation of Folsom Reservoir. To further support its understanding and implementation, the Water Forum is working on a consolidated version of the methodology for reference by the U.S.

Bureau of Reclamation and other state and federal agencies.

Moreover, the Water Forum’s science and habitat work positioned the region to successfully negotiate a voluntary agreement with the State Water Resources Control Board as part of the Healthy Rivers and Landscapes (HR&L) Program. This agreement incorporates the ﬂow management standard in combination with habitat enhancement and increased river ﬂows during dry years.

4. Habitat Management
The Habitat Management Element (HME) of the WFA focused on preserving the ﬁshery, wildlife, recreational, and aesthetic values of the lower American River. The LAR Salmonid Habitat Enhancement Projects are at the core of the program, largely supported by federal funding through the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CVPIA) and State of California funding. Key HME projects included habitat enhancement for salmon and steelhead, such as constructing spawning and rearing habitats. The element also focused on scientiﬁc research to better understand how river operations and enhancement eﬀorts aﬀected ﬁsh migration. The HME also speciﬁed collaboration with partners, including co-convening the Lower American River Task Force with the Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency and supporting water-related education.

Progress: The Water Forum’s contribution to the lower American River environment is unmatched. No other organization invests in the lower American River environment like the Water Forum. With support from local, state, and federal partners, it has invested over $38.8 million in habitat improvement and public education since 2000. These eﬀorts include constructing more than 30 acres of spawning beds and 1.2 miles of side channels to support salmon and steelhead rearing.

The pace of the Water Forum’s habitat enhancement work has accelerated signiﬁcantly over the past ﬁve years. In 2020, the Water Forum secured $5 million in Prop 68 funding from the State to support the early implementation of the Healthy Rivers and Landscapes Program (HR&L). This funding complemented existing program resources, enabling faster, larger-scale implementation. The Water Forum focused on reﬁning designs, conducting necessary analyses, and implementing phased construction at each of the 10 approved habitat project sites.

Additionally, the Water Forum assessed other potential habitat enhancement sites along the lower American River and advanced multi-beneﬁt projects, such as the naturalization of Cordova Creek.

The Water Forum employs a science-based approach to habitat improvement and monitoring, linking each study to speciﬁc goals that support adaptive management. This work supports decisions related to the FMS and evaluates the feasibility of future habitat enhancement projects. With a changing climate, this program has become increasingly vital.

Page 988 of 1107 ends

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 A1-4

Moreover, the Water Forum has contributed to the scientiﬁc understanding of anadromous ﬁsh in the lower American River through studies that produce underwater maps and monitor salmon behavior during drought. These studies help identify locations for habitat enhancement that avoid impacts to ﬂood safety. Years of adaptive management have allowed the Water Forum to reﬁne conditions for optimal salmon spawning, such as gravel depth, ﬂow rate, and substrate size, advancing sustainable habitat practices for the river.

The Water Forum's scientiﬁc work has earned it a place as a trusted regional voice among state and federal agencies overseeing Folsom Reservoir and the statewide water system. This work has enabled the Water Forum to provide consensus-based recommendations on critical issues, including temperature modeling, ﬁsheries, and hydrology.

5. Water Conservation
Under the ﬁrst WFA, water providers committed to comprehensive conservation plans to meet regional water needs while reducing reliance on both groundwater and surface water, including diversions from the American River. Initially, providers followed the 2000 Water Conservation Plans speciﬁed in the WFA, with a focus on maximizing conservation in a way that was accountable, measurable, and eﬀective. Later, they adopted Best Management Practices (BMPs) under the guidelines of the California Urban Water Conservation Council (CUWCC) as a means of meeting the state’s water conservation requirements to reduce per capita water use by 20 percent by 2020. These requirements had been mandated by Senate Bill x7-7 of 2009, which created the 20 x 2020 program.

Progress: The WFA led to the creation of the Regional Water Authority and its Water Eﬃciency Program. For over two decades, this program has engaged local water providers in a regional strategy to conserve local water resources, share best practices, and pool resources to maximize impact and meet state requirements. Working together, participants have leveraged funds with other regional utilities, increased economies of scale for securing grants, and optimized advertising dollars for extensive customer outreach. The program also runs a regional school education initiative and manages the customer-focused website BeWaterSmart.info, which promotes water-saving practices across the region.

This award-winning program empowers members to optimize their investments in water eﬃciency and capitalize on available grant opportunities. Since 2003, it has successfully secured nearly $19.9 million in competitive grants to support outreach, advertising, rebate programs, and services that would be challenging for individual agencies to implement independently.

Since 2013, local water use has decreased by 23 percent, despite a 15 percent increase in population. This strong regional eﬀort has positioned local water providers to meet the new Making Conservation a California Way of Life standards set by the State Water Resources Control Board, pursuant to the water conservation legislation adopted in 2018.

6. Groundwater Management
The Groundwater Management Element focused on protecting the region’s groundwater resources, which supply about half of the region’s annual water supply. The goal was to help ensure that groundwater remains available for future generations while balancing its use with that of surface water supplies.

As part of the WFA, the region established several local agencies, such as the Sacramento Groundwater Authority (SGA) and Sacramento Central Groundwater Authority (SCGA), to monitor groundwater use and implement a conjunctive use program, a strategic approach to managing groundwater that combines the planned use of both surface water from lakes and rivers and groundwater via wells. The practice optimizes water availability in the region over the long term even as the climate changes.

Progress: The WFA provided a crucial collaborative foundation essential to developing the Sacramento region’s successful conjunctive use program. Over the course of two decades, this program enabled the once-overdrafted North American Subbasin to recover and reach sustainable levels, while also providing a path for water providers to reduce their reliance on the river during critical habitat periods for endangered ﬁsh.

The SGA was a pioneer in groundwater management and served as a model for the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), California’s landmark law passed in 2014 to safeguard California’s groundwater resources for the long term.

SCGA has also played a critical role in implementing sustainable groundwater management in the South American Subbasin. One of the most signiﬁcant eﬀorts underway in this area is the Harvest Water project, California’s largest agricultural water recycling initiative, led by the Sacramento Area Sewer District (SacSewer).

SGMA required local agencies to establish Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSAs) and develop and implement Groundwater Sustainability Plans (GSPs) for more than 100 high- and medium-priority subbasins statewide. In the greater Sacramento region, local agencies formed multiple GSAs for the North and South American Subbasins. They were well-positioned to develop GSPs for these subbasins, which were subsequently adopted locally in 2022 and approved by the DWR.

7. Water Forum Successor Eﬀort
The Water Forum Successor Eﬀort (WFSE) was established to guide the ongoing implementation and adaptation of the WFA through 2030. It provides a structured approach to addressing emerging issues, adapting to policy changes, and maintaining continued collaboration among interested parties.

The WFSE was designed to emphasize cooperative problem-solving, requiring participants to engage collaboratively, respect diverse viewpoints, and work toward mutually beneﬁcial

Page 990 of 1107 ends

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 A1-6
solutions. The Agreement also established that all parties involved would participate on equal footing within the WFSE.

Under the structure outlined in the WFA, the City-County Oﬃce of Metropolitan Water Planning oversees the WFSE, funded through agreements with member agencies, primarily water providers. Representatives of member agencies set policy direction, while staﬀ, managed by the City of Sacramento, carry out the work of the WFSE.

Progress: The framework for the WFSE is a hallmark of the Water Forum process and WFA. It has allowed immediate focus on new issues, provided members with ﬂexibility to realign when necessary, and helped sustain trust and momentum throughout the decades of implementation. Membership has remained stable, with many signatories of the ﬁrst WFA still actively involved. New participants continue to join, strengthening the collaborative framework established in the ﬁrst WFA.

Appendix 2: ARCAP Two-Year Workplan

SCOPE OF WORK
This workplan describes the intended activities related to the Water Forum American River Climate Adaptation Program (ARCAP) for the first two years of implementation. The focus for the first two years will include confirming the priority issues for resolution, establishing data, tools, and methods for evaluation, conducting analyses, and is also expected to include trial operations. The work will be phased to align with the approved Water Forum budget for the 2026 Fiscal Year (FY) and includes a Progress Report and an opportunity for workplan refinement after the first year. The budget presented within this work plan only includes the activities identified for the first year. The second-year activities and budget will be refined based on the progress made in year one.

ARCAP TASKS
The Work of ARCAP will be organized into the following tasks. Some of these tasks will take place simultaneously and are not necessarily sequential.

Task 1: Water Forum Member Coordination (ongoing)
An ARCAP Working Group will be created to inform and guide the activities of the ARCAP . The Working Group will be co-convened with the Water Forum and RWA, will include two members from each caucus as primary representatives, and will be open to all Water Forum members. The primaries will commit to making reasonable eﬀorts to attend all working group meetings and to review related materials prior to the meetings. The primaries will also be expected to act as representatives of their caucuses by reporting ARCAP progress to the caucus and providing feedback to the Working Group on matters aﬀecting the caucus. The ARCAP working group will be tasked with:
• Reviewing and commenting on work products
• Providing input on program direction, scope, and pace • Deliberating, refining, and providing answers to ARCAP Questions Meetings will be held monthly and supported by facilitation staﬀ, with the option of additional meetings as necessary.

The Working Group decisions and recommendations (including answers to ARCAP Questions) will be developed by consensus and will be presented to the Plenary for approval. This process is consistent with the decision process as defined in the Water Forum Agreement 2050.

Task 2: Refine and Focus ARCAP Questions
The initial list of questions associated with the ARCAP program was identified in the Water Forum

2.0 negotiations. The list is extensive and reflects the broad interests of the Water Forum Members (see ARCAP agreement language, Program Element 1 ). The key questions to be addressed within the first two years of ARCAP implementation will be refined and agreed upon by

Page 992 of 1107 ends

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 A2-2
the ARCAP Working Group within the first three months of this two-year work plan. It is acknowledged that as ARCAP is implemented, the questions to be answered will evolve, be refined, and re-prioritized as necessary.

Task 2 Deliverable: Refined list of questions to be addressed within the two-year work plan, building from ARCAP Program Element 1.

Target Schedule for Completion: Early 2026
Task 3: Regional Data Collection and Synthesis
This task will be divided into two sub-tasks, with the first centered on collecting and synthesizing information directly from Water Forum purveyors, and the second focused on organizing and preparing data and information for the Technical Analysis (Task 4).

Subtask 3.1 Regional Water Purveyor Data Collection and Synthesis Water Forum staﬀ and consultants will coordinate with regional purveyors to identify operational scenarios that address various questions defined in Task 2. The information to be collected about these scenarios will include specific types of transactions that could be implemented to provide measurable quantities of water that could meet the program objectives. The information will be synthesized to provide a regional perspective, illustrating the best opportunities for ARCAP Water to be generated and tracked.

This activity is expected to be done in an iterative manner. Initially, the information collection will focus on identifying operational opportunities and constraints for potential ARCAP actions. Later information collection activities will involve more quantitative information on facility capacities, water demands, and available supplies. This information will be used to refine and answer ARCAP Questions related to the potential performance, rules, or structure.

Data synthesis will involve summarizing and packaging the information into regional overviews, highlighting and illustrating potential ARCAP opportunities. In many cases, WF staﬀ will prepare draft syntheses for consideration and deliberation by the ARCAP Working Group.

Subtask 3.1 Deliverable: Regional Supply and Operations Synthesis Report Target Schedule for Completion: Summer 2026
Subtask 3.2 Other Regional Data Identification, Organization, and Preparation Water Forum staﬀ, with input and guidance from the ARCAP working group, will work to collect and organize data and tools for technical analyses, which are expected to begin in the second year of the ARCAP program. Activities related to subtask 3.2 are outlined below:
• Review and consideration of existing analyses and information o Acknowledging the possibility that some ARCAP questions may be answered by other eﬀorts, consideration will be given to opportunities to align analyses with other regional eﬀorts, including eﬀorts by Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSAs) and the Regional Water Authority (RWA).
• Define Baseline
o A baseline will be established for evaluating program eﬀectiveness. • Identify operational scenarios for evaluation.
o To be informed by the outcomes from Subtask 3.1 (Regional Water Purveyor Data Collection and Synthesis), which the ARCAP Working Group will review.

Subtask 3.2 Deliverable: ARCAP Data and Approach Summary Document Target Schedule for Completion: Fall 2026
Task 4: Technical Analyses
This task may include the following activities and will depend on the outcomes of Tasks 2 and 3, and ultimately, the extent of further analysis that is recommended by the working group and approved by the Plenary. The list below provides a preliminary outline of how the work may be organized, which will be refined by the working group.
• Identify hydrologic scenarios for evaluation.
o It will be informed by relevant regional and statewide climate modeling and will be reviewed by the ARCAP Working Group.
• Identify and prepare tools.
o Tools considered for further evaluation will include those capable of analyzing trends and conditions for surface water, groundwater, water temperatures, water distribution analyses, etc.
o Selection of tools will be reviewed by the ARCAP Working Group. • Conduct Analyses
o Operational and hydrologic scenarios will be analyzed, and results will be reviewed and discussed with the ARCAP Working Group at various stages.

Deliverable: ARCAP Technical Analysis Report(s)
Schedule for Completion: TBD
Task 5: Trial Operations and Tracking
It is expected that opportunities may arise to implement certain ARCAP operation scenarios during the first two years of implementation, potentially while technical analyses are still pending. Within Water Forum 2050, it is acknowledged that sources for ARCAP Water will include existing sources and may include operations that are currently being conducted. The ARCAP will provide a mechanism to account for and track the outcomes of these regional activities. Based on the findings of Task 3 (Regional Data Collection and Synthesis), opportunities for early trial runs will be identified and considered by the ARCAP Working Group.

As trial runs are performed, individual reporting will be completed on the outcomes of the specific activities.

Deliverable: Memo(s) reporting results of early trial runs Schedule for Completion: TBD
Task 6: Synthesis and Documentation
This task will involve synthesizing and documenting all ARCAP activities and analyses. Key reporting is listed below; other documentation may be identified after the first-year progress report.

Year One Documentation
• Year One Progress Report
o Summarize all activities completed and outcomes for the first year o Identify areas for refinement for the second year

Appendix 3: Engagement with the US Bureau of
Reclamation
The Water Forum’s ongoing engagement with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) has been and will continue to be key to supporting the coequal objectives. The operations of Reclamation at Folsom Reservoir play a critical role in maintaining the health of the lower American River and ensuring the reliability of regional water supplies. By carefully managing water releases from Folsom Dam, Reclamation helps maintain flow conditions that support aquatic ecosystems, including the habitat needs of species like the Central Valley steelhead and Chinook salmon. These operations are also essential for balancing water supply demands for agricultural, municipal, and industrial use in the Sacramento region, especially during periods of drought or fluctuating hydrological conditions.

DESIRED OUTCOMES
The Water Forum will continue to engage and coordinate with Reclamation through various mechanisms and forums and will pursue the following outcomes in eﬀorts to support both coequal objectives. The signatories' shared commitment to the stated outcomes will enhance the region’s ability to adapt to and meet the challenges of climate change.

1. Implementation of the Flow Management Standard (FMS), reflective of the latest data, science, and understanding.
a. This includes all features of the FMS (storage targets, minimum flows, temperature protocols, etc.).

2. Reduce regional risks associated with critically low storage in Folsom Reservoir.

3. Leverage regional actions to support healthy conditions on the LAR and regional water supply reliability.

4. Representation of LAR interests in the development and sharing of best available data, science, and methods in regional and statewide collaborative planning and monitoring eﬀorts.

5. Secure funding for habitat planning, implementation, and monitoring eﬀorts on the LAR.

6. Improvements to infrastructure at Folsom and Nimbus dams necessary to support conditions on the LAR.

7. Balanced considerations for American River interests within broader CVP operations, and the regulatory processes to develop operational plans.

In pursuing these outcomes, Water Forum members will coordinate internally to ensure that messaging and communication are consistent and aligned with the interests of all four caucuses.

Appendix 6: Declaration of Full Appropriation
The WF2050 negotiations included the formation of a subgroup tasked with the review, assessment, and discussion of commitments made in the original Water Forum Agreement related to the existing declaration of full appropriation on the Lower American River. Based on the review and discussion, the subgroup is not recommending the Water Forum pursue an amendment to the Declaration of Full Appropriation (DOFA) in Water Forum Agreement 2050. The explanation follows:

Fully appropriated stream systems are those where there is insuﬀicient supply for new water right applications, either during certain months or conditions, or all year long. The program is administered by the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB). SWRCB, which administers major parts of California’s water rights system, does not accept applications for new water rights on fully appropriated streams, except in certain specified circumstances. 63 The subgroup confirms their understanding that the American River’s current status as a fully appropriated stream helps reduce potential new competition for scarce water supplies to the benefit of existing rights holders and water users, as well as public trust watershed resources.

The status is therefore a positive one.

The subgroup notes that the SWRCB does not administer the fully appropriated streams program to aﬀect existing water rights and contracts, or applications for assignment of state filings or for rights under the state’s Area of Origin protections such as might be made by one or more of the Water Forum 2050 negotiation participants, as provided for by SWRCB orders. 64 In the SWRCB’s administration of its fully appropriated streams system and its responsibilities under the California Wild & Scenic Rivers Act and realities of the National Wild & Scenic Rivers Act designations in California, SWRCB has issued orders that state or federal wild & scenic river designations result in twelve-month declarations of full appropriations on the designated reaches. SWRCB orders also state that any declaration that a stream system is fully appropriated encompasses all upstream sources that contribute to the stream system if such upstream sources are hydraulically continuous to the stream system.

Thus, the existence of insuﬀicient unappropriated supply at times in the American River watershed and the wild & scenic river status of the lower American River is expected to constrain the acceptance and processing of new water right applications outside of the specified exceptions.

Thus, the subgroup sees little utility in recommending that amendments to the existing declarations of full appropriations be sought in Water Forum 2050.

63 https://www.waterboards.ca.gov/waterrights/water_issues/programs/fully_appropriated_streams. 64 SWRCB Order WR 98-08 (in response to a petition to reconsider Order WR 89-25, the SWRCB adopted Order WR 90- 2 on February 15, 1990. Order WR 90-2 modified and aﬀirmed Order WR 89-25 as modified).

Appendix 7: Bridge to the Regional Groundwater
Sustainability Agencies and Water Forum 2050
The purpose of this appendix to the Water Forum Agreement is to address the relationship between groundwater management entities and the Water Forum Agreement. The Water Forum Agreement, initially signed in 2000 and revised in 2015, includes a Groundwater Management Element (GME).

In 2014, the State of California passed the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), which created the foundation for the sustainable management of the state’s groundwater basins/subbasins. Under SGMA, to avoid potential state intervention and state control of groundwater, local agencies can signal to the State their intention to form as Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSA) to locally manage groundwater within each subbasin. As required in SGMA and newly completed regulations, GSAs prepared, adopted, and began implementing Groundwater Sustainability Plans (GSPs) within subbasins throughout the state.

In the Sacramento County portion of the North American subbasin, the Sacramento Groundwater Authority (SGA) serves as the GSA governed by a joint powers agreement (JPA).

SGA works collaboratively with four other GSAs in the subbasin to implement the North American Subbasin GSP .

In the South American subbasin, there are currently seven GSAs working collaboratively to implement the South American Subbasin GSP . The largest GSA in the basin is the Sacramento Central Groundwater Authority or SCGA, which is governed by a JPA, and whose members are largely signatories to the Water Forum Agreement.

The Cosumnes subbasin includes seven GSAs and is governed by the Cosumnes Groundwater Authority (CGA). The CGA serves as the coordinating body for the Cosumnes subbasin GSAs, facilitating communication, data sharing, and the implementation of projects and management actions.

Because SGMA now defines the sustainability metrics of groundwater through the adopted GSPs, the sustainable yield listed in the original Water Forum Agreement is now obsolete. Also, because groundwater management in the three regional subbasins now includes parties that are not signatories to Water Forum 2050, it is important to define the intersection between regional groundwater management and the Water Forum.

The signatories to the Water Forum who are also members of the SGA JPA and the SCGA JPA recognize the shared goal of managing groundwater resources in Sacramento sustainably.

The signatories also recognize the importance of transparent governance and the sharing of information related to groundwater management.

Page 1003 of 1107 ends

Water Forum Agreement 2050
February 2026 A7-2
The signatories remain committed to conjunctive use as defined in the original Water Forum Agreement as the balanced use of groundwater and surface water. Conjunctive use prioritizes the use of surface water during wet times and prioritizes groundwater during dry times. The signatories agree that the Sacramento Regional Water Bank will help expand and formalize the practice of conjunctive use.

Appendix 8: WSS Demand Management Actions
Acknowledging that each Water Forum purveyor must consider the timing and level of eﬀort required for each potential demand management action in relation to their opportunities and constraints, the list below is provided as a reference for consideration and is not intended to be any form of a mandate. The ability of each purveyor to identify the most eﬀective demand management actions for their respective service area will be critical as the region endeavors to support the coequal objectives while meeting relevant targets and standards.

1. Create and implement policies and programs that convert publicly owned, commercial, and institutional landscaping to low-water use native landscaping that supports native pollinator, insect, bird, and animal species.

2. Implement staggered outdoor irrigation schedules for twice a week during summer (e.g., based upon a last digit of street address) for residential customers, and one day a week for commercial customers.
a. Note: An exception would be needed for newly planted vegetation that requires additional water for healthy root development.

3. Expand and strengthen regional conservation messaging to amplify information about plant watering needs; encourage no irrigation during the cooler, wetter winter months and, in dry winters, significantly reduced irrigation due to lower transpiration rates during the non-growing season.

4. Provide rebates to all customers for indoor and outdoor WaterSense labelled products.

5. Implement programs to identify water users that are using excessive amounts of water (well above the mandated objectives) and support those users in reducing excessive use through education and access to resources (i.e., rebates), as available.

6. Implement water rate structures to promote equity and encourage water conservation (tiered, decoupled, others).

7. Implement leak detection, notification and enforcement.

8. Strengthen and expand regional program(s) that retrofit rental and low-income housing with water eﬀicient devices and landscaping.

9. Expand and strengthen landscape conversion education and incentive programs and emphasize low-water use native plants (which require less summer water and support native pollinator, insect, bird and animal species), and improvements to irrigation practices and systems which increase water-use eﬀiciency.

10. Maintain and strengthen active water waste prevention programs, including public messaging and intervention steps when waste is observed physically or through meter data (i.e., leak alert programs, water waste hotlines).

11. Create messaging and other information programs to positively promote and support customer eﬀorts to help suppliers implement state requirements.

12. Encourage the use of demand management measures such as reuse, gray-water, recycling, and rainwater-harvesting.

13. Establish and support programs targeting implementation of the Commercial, Industrial, and Institutional (CII) Best Management Practices (BMPs).

Metrics and Reporting Development and Tables
This appendix provides summary tables of the data and documentation metrics used in the Water Forum metrics and reporting program element, and their respective categories and relevant program areas. The summary tables include the ARFO, ARCH, WSS, and GFA program areas. Metrics related to ARCAP will be developed as the program is launched and the members identify specific to metrics for long-term tracking and reporting. Contextual data are not featured in this appendix. That data is informative in terms of the status of the coequal objectives but is not necessarily indicative of the success of the Water Forum’s activities. A figure and description of steps taken to develop the Water Forum Metrics and Reporting framework are identified in the figure below.

Figure 9.A. Steps taken for development of Metrics and Reporting framework Each step is elaborated in detail as follows:

1. Review of Guiding Principles and Available Data: Guiding principles were reviewed along with available data and information, including existing data reporting mechanisms, to identify potential metrics applicable for each principle.

2. Determine Type of Metrics: An explanation was documented of whether these metrics were quantifiable data, or more qualitative and descriptive in nature (see the Types of Metrics explanation below).

3. Identify Overlaps and Efficiencies: Metrics were reviewed to determine potential overlaps, whereby a given metric could be tracked that demonstrates progress in supporting more than one Guiding Principle. These overlaps can also provide opportunities for efficiencies in reporting by reducing the overall total number of metrics that are tracked and reported.

4. Identify Reporting Mechanism: A potential form of reporting (e.g., Annual Report, Water Forum 2050 Five-Year Status Report, reporting during a standing meeting [Caucus, Plenary]) was identified for each metric. This step leveraged existing forms of reporting and existing venues for Water Forum member and staff engagement, rather than creating additional meetings. Similarly, this step supports providing progress updates that inform standing meetings and existing reporting processes and documentation.

5. Map Reporting Schedule: Metrics were reviewed to create an overall reporting and member engagement timeline that could be pursued within a given year to regularly communicate progress made in supporting the coequal objectives and implementing guiding principles.

The City of Sacramento has covered the Citywide Costs in error since WF inception. The Citywide Cost Plan includes all citywide shared services including but not limited to Finance, Human Resources, City Council, City Clerk, Information Technology, etc. 3) The Operating Reserve will be funded over the first five years of the new agreement to minimize funding impacts to purveyors and to maintain at least $100,000 in available fund balance for unplanned needs. The Operating Reserve excludes costs associated with operating programs. In the event of full revenue loss, programs will be suspended until revenues are available.
4) FY26 Final includes the adjustments for the final position budgeting report, updated liability insurance premium, final adjustments to COS cost share, final adjustments to citywide cost plan, and misc. IT adjustments. Savings will be added to professional services that will later be applied to employee services to support possible overages for Executive Director or Senior Engineer when either position is filled at a higher total compensation rate.

2) Water Forum will create a grant reserve at the end of FY25 to ensure funding availability to pursue grants by using all but $50,000 of the remaining HME fund balance (7104). There is a need of $195,000 for a grant match in FY25 and grant related operating expenses of $120,000. If grant reserves are used in any given Fiscal Year, the reserve will be replenished to $250,000 over the next five years to limit the impacts on contributors. HME funding was contributed by the County of Sacramento Zone 13 and the City of Sacramento. Funding from the grant match will be used to fund grant related HME efforts only.

During negotiations, it was determined that a new cost allocation methodology would be necessary to fund the work of the Water Forum, commencing in Fiscal Year 2025-2026 (FY26).

Previously, funding for multiple agencies was derived from assessments through the Sacramento County Water Agency (SCWA) Zone 13. However, Zone 13 was established 38 years prior without an inflation adjustment, and its revenue has remained static while the Water Forum’s budget grew annually to accommodate inflation. As a result, contributions from Zone 13 towards the Water Forum’s work became unsustainable. Zone 13 funds historically comprised nearly 50% of the Water Forum’s annual budget.

Over several months, water agencies and other funders explored several new funding models to distribute the Water Forum costs equitably. In November 2024, stakeholders agreed on an approach involving proportional cost allocations based on agency connection counts, five-year average groundwater production, and a five-year average of American River diversions. Each dataset is weighted relative to the benefits derived from Water Forum participation (as
summarized in Table 1 below).

Specific adjustments were made for the agencies summarized below to fully capture the unique benefits and opportunities derived from Water Forum membership and participation:

EBMUD: EBMUD’s data was adjusted for the cost allocation calculation to reflect unique characteristics of its service area and water usage relative to the Water Forum. The adjustment was made based on the following factors:

1. EBMUD’s service area lies entirely outside the Sacramento region.

2. EBMUD uses water from the American River only as a dry-year supply and does not rely on groundwater from the Sacramento regional groundwater basins.

3. The American River water used by EBMUD flows through the lower American River (LAR) before being diverted at the Freeport intake.

To account for these considerations, EBMUD’s connection count was adjusted to reflect the proportion of its service area supplied with American River water on an annual basis, using a five-year average.

PCWA: PCWA’s water collection and distribution system is complex, relying on multiple sources and diversion points for its surface water supply. PCWA is also both a wholesaler and a retailer of both treated and untreated water from these multiple sources. For the purposes of the Water Forum cost allocation calculations, only the volume of American River water that is diverted and used within PCWA’s own retail service area, treated and untreated, is included.

PCWA water diverted by or on behalf of its wholesale customers is excluded from PCWA’s cost calculations

February 2026 A12-2
Golden State: An adjustment was made to GSWC’s data within the Water Forum cost allocation model to account for its unique water supplies and operations. GSWC uses treated groundwater that is discharged into the American River and later diverted at the Carmichael Water District’s intake on the LAR, then the treated water is delivered to GSWC, putting the groundwater back to beneficial use. To accurately reflect this process, both GSWC’s American River diversion and groundwater production volumes were adjusted accordingly in the model.

Table 2 illustrates the application of the agreed-upon funding allocation methodology, which includes the relative percentages for each of the respective datasets, the resulting weighted percentage calculated using the factors listed in Table 1, and the final cost allocations for FY26 for each relevant funder. The weighted percentage shown in Table 2 for each agency will be used for five years, and an updated weighted percentage will be calculated in 2030 to be applied in FY2030-2031 and the subsequent five years (pending approval from the funders).

THIRD INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT FOR THE

ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT OF THE WATER FORUM

THIS THIRD INTERAGENCY AGREEMENT FOR THE ADMINISTRATION AND MANAGEMENT OF THE WATER FORUM (“AGREEMENT”) is made and entered into this __ day of _______ 202 6, by and among the City of Sacramento, the El Dorado Irrigation District, the Placer County Water Agency, the City of Folsom, the City of Roseville, the San Juan Water District (retail), Citrus Heights Water District, Fair Oaks Water District, Orange Vale Water Company, Carmichael Water District, Sacramento Suburban Water District, Golden State Water Company, California-American Water, Sacramento County Water Agency (“SCWA”), County of Sacramento, and East Bay Municipal Utility District referred to collectively as “the Parties.”

RECITALS
A. Each of the Parties to this Agreement is a local governmental entity or public water supplier functioning within or adjacent to the Sacramento Metropolitan Area.

B. On October 30, 1991, the Sacramento City Council, the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors and the Board of Directors of SCWA authorized the execution of the "Interagency Agreement for the City-County Office of Water Planning" to create a City County organization known as the City-County Office of Water Planning.

C. The City-County Office of Water Planning, subsequently renamed the City-County Office of Metropolitan Water Planning (hereafter referred to as the “CCOMWP”), was formed to provide City-County staffing necessary to undertake planning and analysis needed for, and to facilitate the participation of numerous stakeholders in, the development of a comprehensive plan to provide a reliable water supply for the region while protecting the environmental values of the area's water resources.

D. On January 9, 2001, the Sacramento City Council, the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors and the Board of Directors of SCWA entered into the “Second Interagency Agreement for the City-County Office of Metropolitan Water Planning” to provide for the continued existence and operation of the CCOMWP.

E. The Parties are all members of the Water Forum, a coalition of business leaders, citizens, environmentalists, water managers, and local governments (individually “Members”).

The Water Forum was governed by the 2000 Water Forum Agreement, updated in October 2015 (the “Water Forum Agreement”). The renegotiation of the Water Forum Agreement through the Water Forum 2050 process resulted in a need to update the Second Interagency Agreement for the City-County Office of Metropolitan Water Planning to reflect participation of all of the Parties. The purpose of this Agreement is to delineate an efficient and effective arrangement for administration and management of Water Forum staff. Funding for the Water Forum staff and operations will be allocated on a cost-share

Page 1030 of 1107 ends

basis between the Parties in a separate funding agreement for the Water Forum (“Funding Agreement”).

F. The City of Sacramento and the County of Sacramento wish to express their long time and continuing support for the Water Forum and its mission of the co-equal objectives.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Water Forum Office. The renegotiated Water Forum Agreement has restructured roles and responsibilities of the participating water agencies. To reflect those changes, the name of the CCOMWP is hereby changed to the Water Forum Office. The Water Forum Office is a division of the City of Sacramento, not an independent legal entity.

The Water Forum Office is hereby authorized to continue operating in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement replaces and supersedes the Second Interagency Agreement for the City-County Office of Metropolitan Water Planning.

2. Objectives and Duties of the Water Forum Office. The objective of the Water Forum Office is to promote the implementation and continued vitality of the Water Forum Agreement. This objective shall be accomplished by providing administrative support and assistance to the Water Forum Members as the Members oversee, monitor, and report on implementation of the Water Forum Agreement. Specific tasks necessary to accomplish this purpose may be performed by Water Forum Office staff, or by other individuals, firms or entities pursuant to contracts or agreements authorized as set forth in Section 5, below.

3. Water Forum Office Operations. The City of Sacramento shall continue to provide the Water Forum Office with suitable office space and administrative, clerical, and technical support resources as an entity of the City of Sacramento. The City of Sacramento will be responsible for overseeing the following arrangements for the Water Forum Office:
a. Procurement of leased office space including conference facilities and necessary furnishings to house the Water Forum Office.
b. Preparation of an operating budget, operating reserves of 120 days, and necessary appropriation resolutions.
c. Establishment of accounting records and procedures for capturing expenditures of the Water Forum Office.
d. Allocation of operating costs for the Water Forum Office on a cost-share basis among the Parties pursuant to the Funding Agreement. "Operating costs" shall include all office lease, equipment, personnel and other staffing costs, contracting costs, and other costs incurred in the performance of the Water

Page 1031 of 1107 ends

Forum Office's duties, together with associated direct and indirect overhead and other administrative costs.
e. Implementation of the staffing plan for the Water Forum Office including such things as classification of positions, salary resolution amendments, recruitment, and selection.

4. Water Forum Office Costs. The Parties shall fund the Water Forum Office operating costs in accordance with the cost-sharing provisions of the Funding Agreement.

Annual Operating costs shall not exceed the funding available for such costs under the Funding Agreement or available from other funding sources approved by the Parties and shall be consistent with the Water Forum Office budget approved by the Parties.

5. Staff Arrangements.
a. The Water Forum Office shall have an Executive Director and adequate staff to support the following functions: River Corridor Health Program, Water Resources engineering, and administrative support staff. These positions, whether new hires or existing staff, shall be considered City of Sacramento employees. These employees shall continue to be paid at the designated salaries and employee benefits for their respective classifications within the City of Sacramento, and shall be entitled to the same promotions, and merit or other salary increases as City of Sacramento fulltime employees. In addition, the services of other City of Sacramento staff may be used from time to time to provide technical assistance for the Water Forum Office. b. As an entity of the City of Sacramento, the Water Forum Office has established funds that pay the full cost of the assigned positions and any staff assistance for all salaries, employee benefits and indirect employee costs. c. The Executive Director shall be the chief administrative officer of the Water Forum Office, shall supervise the Water Forum Office employees, and shall be responsible for the administration of the Water Forum Office pursuant to this Agreement. The Executive Director shall report to the Director of the City of Sacramento Department of Utilities (“DOU Director”). The DOU Director shall implement a process to solicit the Parties’ input on the selection and performance of the Executive Director but shall retain sole authority to take any and all employment actions related to the Executive Director. d. Water Forum Office staff, including but not limited to the Executive Director, are not employees of any Party other than the City of Sacramento and shall not be entitled to any wages, retirement benefits, or other benefits enjoyed by employees of any Party other than the City of Sacramento. e. When requested by the Water Forum’s Coordinating Committee, or at least every five years, the Water Forum may conduct a compensation survey to

Page 1032 of 1107 ends

ensure that the total compensation of the Executive Director is appropriate.

The compensation survey will be paid for by the Water Forum office. Should the survey indicate the compensation should be adjusted, the City of Sacramento shall consider adjusting the compensation accordingly, but is not required to do so. All Water Forum office employee salaries are funded by the water agencies that contribute to the Water Forum office, the funding for their salaries does not come solely from the City of Sacramento. Nothing in this agreement, in action or intent, will preempt City of Sacramento employment practices.

6. Contracting Procedures. All Water Forum Office contracting shall follow procedures used by the City of Sacramento. The Executive Director may recommend the approval of contracts for services required by the Water Forum Office and the Sacramento City Manager or the City Manager’s designee shall be authorized to approve and execute such contracts in accordance with applicable provisions of the Sacramento City Code relating to authority to enter into contracts. All other contracts shall be submitted to the Sacramento City Council for approval and execution. All contracts shall be approved as to form by the Sacramento City Attorney or use standard formats approved by the Sacramento City Attorney. The City shall require and verify that all contractors and subcontractors maintain insurance coverage that meets the minimum scope and limits of insurance coverage appropriate for the work performed. Costs incurred under contracts that are consistent with the Water Forum Office budget approved by the Parties shall be allocated on a cost-share basis between the Parties as specified in the Funding Agreement.

7. Insurance; Excess liability.
a. The City of Sacramento shall procure and maintain a liability insurance policy sufficient to cover the Water Forum Office’s potential liabilities, with a minimum limit of $1 million per occurrence and $4 million aggregate. The Parties recognize that the coverage and terms of insurance may be subject to change based on insurance market conditions, but the City of Sacramento shall immediately disclose changes and obtain approval of the other Parties to an approach that most closely preserves compliance with requirements of this section. The coverage must be at least as broad in scope as Insurance Services Office (ISO) Commercial General Liability Coverage (Occurrence Form CG00 01) including products and completed operations, property damage, bodily injury, personal and advertising injury, and contractual liability coverage for liabilities assumed under this Agreement as an “insured contract.” The City of Sacramento will provide proof of this insurance to each Party on an annual basis for the duration of this Agreement and will immediately notify Parties of any changes in coverage. Liability coverage will be in effect for Water Forum work plan activities or activities communicated in writing to the Plenary Water Forum.

Page 1033 of 1107 ends

b. The City of Sacramento shall use available insurance proceeds to defray the cost of liability arising from the Water Forum Office or its functions or work.

If the Water Forum Office’s liability insurance, or any other available insurance policy, does not fully cover all liability of the Water Forum Office or of the City of Sacramento arising from a covered employee action, omission, or injuries, then any excess amount of such liability (“Excess Liability”), except Excluded Liability, shall be allocated among the Parties pursuant to the cost allocation formula specified in the Funding Agreement. The term “Excluded Liability” includes each of the following: (i) any liability arising from any employee action, omission, or injury that is intentional, fraudulent, reckless, or outside the course or scope of the employee’s position with the Water Forum; (ii) any liability arising from any class actions, representative actions, actions under the Private Attorneys General Act; or (iii) any liability arising from claims for punitive or exemplary damages; or (iv) recovery of attorneys’ fees. Excess liability costs for Excluded Liability may be submitted to the Parties for consideration through the annual budget process. The Parties (as defined in Attachment A) are to be covered as additional insureds on the Water Forum Office’s CGL policy with respect to liability arising out of this Agreement. For any claims related to this Agreement, the Water Forum Office’s insurance coverage shall be primary and non-contributory as respects the Parties. The Water Forum Office will promptly notify each Party of any claim that has arisen or that may arise and keep them informed as to the status of the claim until resolved.

The City of Sacramento shall procure, maintain, and be solely responsible for the provision of workers’ compensation insurance for its employees assigned to the Water Forum Office or performing duties related to the Water Forum Office. The City shall maintain excess workers’ compensation insurance and waive subrogation against the Parties.

8. Disclaimer of Liability; Mutual Indemnification. No Party nor any officer or employee thereof shall be responsible for any damage or liability occurring by reason of anything done or omitted to be done by another Party under or in connection with any work, authority, or jurisdiction delegated to another Party. Each Party shall fully defend (upon the request of the indemnitee), indemnify, and hold each Party harmless from and against all claims, losses and liabilities occurring by reason of anything done or omitted to be done by the indemnifying Party under or in connection with any work, authority, or jurisdiction delegated to the indemnifying Party under this Agreement.

Except as limited by this section 8, Excess Liability, except Excluded Liability, may be allocated among the Parties in the manner and circumstances described in subsection (b) of section 7.

9. Effective Date. This Agreement shall become effective when it has been signed by each Party.

Page 1034 of 1107 ends

10. Termination. This Agreement shall remain in effect until December 31, 2050, unless terminated sooner in the manner described herein. This Agreement may be terminated by two-thirds written consent of the Parties. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent any individual Party from withdrawing as provided in this Agreement. Upon termination of this Agreement, any surplus funds on hand shall be returned to the then Parties in proportion to the contributions made.

A Party may unilaterally withdraw from this Agreement without requiring termination of this Agreement, effective upon 90 days’ written notice to the other Parties, provided that the withdrawing Party shall remain responsible for any indebtedness incurred by the Party under the Funding Agreement, and further provided that the withdrawing Party pays or agrees to pay its share of debts, liabilities and obligations of the Water Forum Office incurred by the Party under this Agreement prior to the effective date of such withdrawal. Terms of the Funding Agreement may include a not-to-exceed amount equaling a two-year funding obligation from each agency.

If the City of Sacramento wishes to withdraw from this Agreement, the City of Sacramento shall provide 180 days’ written notice to the other Parties; provided that the City of Sacramento shall remain responsible for any indebtedness incurred by the City of Sacramento under any funding agreement, and further provided that the City of Sacramento pays or agrees to pay its share of debts, liabilities and obligations of the Water Forum Office incurred by the City of Sacramento under this Agreement prior to the effective date of such withdrawal. In such case, the City of Sacramento shall cooperate in good faith with other Parties if they wish to continue the Water Forum Office under the auspices of another entity.

11. Notices. Any notices or other communication to be given Parties pursuant to this Agreement shall be given in writing by U.S. Mail, email, or by personal delivery to the Parties at the addresses set forth in Attachment B, incorporated herein by this reference.

12. Amendments.

Page 1035 of 1107 ends

15. Waiver. The waiver at any time by any Party of its rights with respect to a default or other matter arising in connection with this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver with respect to any subsequent default or matter.

16. Construction and Interpretation. The Parties agree and acknowledge that this Agreement has been arrived at through negotiation, and that each Party has had a full and fair opportunity to revise the terms of this Agreement. Consequently, the normal rule of construction that any ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting Party shall not apply in construing or interpreting this Agreement.

17. Counterparts and Digital Signatures. This Agreement may be executed by the Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original. All such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Title: HOUSING AUTHORITY - Fiscal Year 2026-27 Annual Plan Contact: Suzi Cook-Turner, Trisha Isom 916-774-5414, 916-746-1239 smcook- [email protected], [email protected]

SUMMARY
Staff recommends approval of the Roseville Housing Authority’s FY2026-27 Annual Plan. This item does not create any additional cost to the City’s General Fund.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council, acting as the Roseville Housing Authority, take the following actions:

1. Adopt a resolution to approve the FY2026-27 Roseville Housing Authority Annual Plan; and

2. Authorize the Executive Director to submit the FY2026-27 Roseville Housing Authority Annual Plan to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development along with the required certifications, disclosures, and related documents.

BACKGROUND
Pursuant to the 1998 Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act (QHWRA), all housing authorities must submit an Annual Plan each year. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) designed the Annual Plan to reflect the current and future goals of all housing authorities. It is also intended to identify the needs of the households served by Roseville Housing Authority (RHA). HUD has designated RHA as a “High Performer” for the last 21 years, which allows for submittal of a simplified annual plan.

The specific goals and objectives for the upcoming year, along with the actions RHA will undertake to achieve them, are further outlined in the attached Annual Plan document. The overall goals of RHA are as follows:
• Continue to expand the supply of assisted housing;
• Improve the quality of assisted housing;
• Increase assisted housing choices;
• Affirmatively further Fair Housing; and
• Collaborate with neighboring housing authorities to optimize administration of the HCV Program.

RHA remains committed to serving the needs of very low- and extremely low-income families and is authorized to provide up to 845 households with Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) rental assistance funded through the HUD. This allocation includes assistance specifically designated for non-elderly disabled households, veteran households, former foster youth ages 18 to 24, and households that include persons with disabilities, all of whom must be homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. The HCV rental assistance program works to ensure that very low- and extremely low-income households can afford to live in safe,

Page 1082 of 1107 ends

decent housing.

The draft plan requires a 45-day local comment period before RHA holds a public hearing to adopt the Annual Plan. The 45-day comment period was noticed and commenced on February 13, 2026, and will close on April 1, 2026. To date, staff have not received any comments from the public regarding this matter.

Housing Authority staff provided RHA's Resident Advisory Board (RAB) members with a copy of the Annual Plans for review and comment. The RAB members have reviewed all previous Annual Plan submissions to HUD and have supported RHA's goals and its progress in meeting them. With Board approval, staff will proceed with finalizing the Annual Plan and submitting it to HUD in April 2026 in accordance with federal requirements.

FISCAL IMPACT
This Housing Authority FY2026-27 Annual Plan does not create any additional cost to the City’s General Fund.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment or is otherwise not considered a project as defined by CEQA Statute §21065 and CEQA State Guidelines §15060(c)(3) and §15378. The Roseville Housing Authority FY2026-27 Annual Plan meets the above criteria and is not subject to CEQA.

No additional environmental review is required.

B.3 Progress Report.

Provide a description of the PHA’s progress in meeting its Mission and Goals described in the PHA 5- Year Plan.

T
he mission of the Roseville Housing Authority is to provide opportunity for decent, safe, and sanitary affordable housing to very low and extremely low-income families in Roseville and Rocklin.

Roseville Housing Authority’s 5-Year Plan Goals are:

A. E xpand the supply of assisted housing.
a. VASH Vouchers - RHA currently administers 100 VASH vouchers. In 2025, RHA applied for an additional 20 V
ASH vouchers and is awaiting HUD’s award determination. RHA will continue to pursue additional VASH allocations as they become available. The VASH program is currently leased at 97% with all 100 vouchers issued.
b. Mainstream (MS) Vouchers - RHA administers 43 Mainstream vouchers, including 7 reserved for Emergency H
ousing Voucher (EHV) households whose program funding ends in 2026. This allocation ensures continuity of assistance for these vulnerable households.
c. Foster Youth to Independence (FYI) and Foster Care Unification (FUP) Vouchers - RHA was awarded 20 F
YI vouchers in August 2024. The agency will continue applying for additional FYI and FUP vouchers as opportunities arise. Current leasing is at 65%, with all vouchers issued and several applicants actively searching for units.

B. Improve the quality of assisted housing.
a. Project-Based Voucher (PBV) Program - RHA currently has 70 PBV units under HAP contract.RHA continues to monitor PBV properties for compliance with HAP contract requirements, timely unit turnover, and adhe
rence to HQS/NSPIRE-V standards.
b. SEMAP Performance RHA has maintained SEMAP High Performer status for 21 consecutive years, reflecti ng s
trong administrative performance, consistent compliance with HUD regulations, and a sustained commitment to high-quality service delivery.
c. Housing Quality Standards (HQS) / NSPIRE-V Compliance - RHA continues to meet HUD’s required i
nspection timelines and maintains strong pass rates through proactive communication with landlords and te
nants. Quality-control inspections are conducted quarterly to ensure consistency and accuracy in inspecti on out
comes. Staff receive ongoing training in HQS/NSPIRE-V protocols to support program integrity. d. Landlord Engagement and Retention - To support the availability of high-quality units, RHA expanded l
andlord outreach efforts, including owner incentive payments, informational sessions, improved communication, and streamlined processes for inspections and payments. These efforts help retain participating landlords and encourage new property owners to join the program.

C. Increase assisted housing choices.
a. Housing Search Support and Unit Visibility - RHA encourages property owners to list available units on AffordableHousing.com, a free listing service that expands housing search options for voucher holders. This effort increases visibility of available units and supports participant mobility across R oseville, Rocklin, and surrounding areas.
b. Landlord Incentive Program - In 2023, RHA established a landlord incentive program to attract new property owners to the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program. The initiative has been highly successful, resulting i n 75 ne
w property owners joining the program to date. This expansion directly increased the number and variety of units available to voucher holders.
c. Transition of EHV Participants to Other Voucher Types - With the Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) program approaching the end of its funding cycle, RHA is proactively working to prevent the termination of assistance for eligible families. Some EHV participants will transition to Mainstream, Project- Based Vouche r
(
PBV) units, or HCV vouchers, depending on eligibility and availability. This strategy preserves housi ng s
tability and ensures continuity of assistance for vulnerable households. d. Payment Standards and Rent Reasonableness - RHA regularly evaluates payment standards to ensure they reflect local market conditions and support participant access to a broader range of neighborhoods. Rent reasonableness determinations are conducted consistently to maintain program integrity and ens ure fai r
m
arket alignment.
e. Expansion of Project-Based Voucher (PBV) Opportunities RHA is making significant progress in expanding hous
ing options in Roseville through new PBV developments. Previous PBV projects have reached full occupancy, demonstrating strong demand and program effectiveness. With additional PBV projects comi ng onl
ine, RHA is well-positioned to continue increasing high-quality, stable housing choices for low-income hous
eholds.
f. Landlord Engagement and Outreach - RHA continues to strengthen relationships with property owners through informational sessions, improved communication tools, and streamlined processes. To enhance consistency and reduce conflicting information, RHA reorganized caseloads so that larger comp lexes work

Page 1089 of 1107 ends

with a single assigned Housing Technician. This structure improves communication, supports stronger landlord relationships, and ensures more efficient issue resolution. These efforts contribute to both landlord retention and the recruitment of new owners in high-opportunity neighborhoods.

D. A ffirmatively further Fair Housing.
a. Fair Housing Training and Education- RHA works closely with Project Sentinel, a regional fair housing age
ncy, to provide ongoing fair housing and reasonable accommodation training to Housing Authority staff, property managers, property owners, and the general public. These training courses occur at least once per year and support compliance with the Fair Housing Act, Section 504, and ADA requirements. Housi ng A
uthority staff most recently attended fair housing training in April 2025, reinforcing their knowledge of protected classes, discriminatory practices, reasonable accommodations, and effective communication wit h p
ersons with disabilities.
b. Outreach and Public Information - RHA distributes fair housing materials at briefings, on its website, and in l
obby areas to ensure applicants and participants understand their rights and know how to file complaints.

Information includes contact details for Project Sentinel, HUD’s Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity (FHEO), and local resources.
c. Reasonable Accommodation and Accessibility - RHA maintains a clear and accessible reasonable accommodation process for individuals with disabilities. Staff receive ongoing training to ensure appropriate documentation handling and consistent application of policies. RHA works collaboratively with property owners to identify accessible units when needed. The 504 Coordinator also tracks accommodation requests t o
i
dentify trends and improve service delivery.

E. Collaborate with neighboring housing authorities to optimize administration of the Housing Choice Voucher Program.
a. Regional Program Coordination with Placer County Housing Authority (PCHA) - RHA continues to c
ollaborate closely with the Placer County Housing Authority (PCHA) on multiple program areas, including t
he Emergency Housing Voucher (EHV) program and VASH vouchers. The partnership ensures consistent program administration, coordinated communication with service providers, and improved outcomes for shared populations. Most recently, RHA expanded this partnership to include the Family Self-Sufficiency (FSS) program, allowing both agencies to leverage shared resources, align service strategies, and strengthe n
par
ticipant support.
b. PROGRESS: RHA continues its FSS program collaboration with PCHA through the joint FSS Program Coordinating Committee. The committee meets quarterly and consistently adds new members and resources. c. PROGRESS: RHA collaborates with PHAs throughout California through our membership with the California Association of Housing Authorities (CAHA) to share information, facilitating improvements in program administration, legislative advocacy, strategies for avoiding shortfall, and to improve Port Out/Port I n
pr
ocedures.

Item #: IX.22
File #: 1001
Item ID: 2026-168

Title: Intent to Vacate – Portion of Campo Street Right of Way Contact: Sean Morales 916-774-5282 [email protected]

SUMMARY
Staff recommends approval of a resolution to set the public hearing date for the right of way abandonment, as described below, for the May 6, 2026 City Council meeting. Setting the public hearing date will not result in a fiscal impact.

RECOMMENDATION
Consider and adopt a Resolution to set a public hearing date for the right of way abandonment, for the May 6, 2026 City Council meeting.

BACKGROUND
The applicant requests approval of a General Vacation to abandon a 23,272 square-foot (.53 acres) portion of the Campo Street right of way. A vicinity map of the proposed abandonment area is included as Attachment 1 and the detailed mapping exhibit is included as Attachment 2. The right of way abandonment is part of the Roseville High School Improvement Project to update and construct a range of facilities. The project includes upgrades to a portion of the Campo Street right of way, including pavement texture and color connection. This section of Campo Street is currently closed to vehicle traffic during school operating hours. In 1970, the street was closed off from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm by resolution of City Council. In 2013, those hours were expanded to 6:30 am to 4:00 pm. The Roseville Joint Union High School District has requested that the City undergo the process to permanently abandon the portion of Campo Street right of way within the school campus in order to improve the safety and security of students. A detailed request from the school is provided as Attachment 3. A conceptual rendering of the campus after completion of the Roseville High School Improvement Project, including upgrades to Campo Street, is included as Attachment 4.

The California Streets and Highways Code (Sections 8320 through 8325) states that the legislative body of a local agency may initiate a General Vacation upon a petition or request of an interested person, at the discretion of the legislative body, where the clerk of the legislative body shall administratively set a hearing by fixing the date, hour, and place of the hearing. The attached resolution fixes the date for May 6, 2026 (Attachment 5).

Public Outreach
A neighborhood meeting was held for the project on November 3, 2025 with City staff and Roseville Joint Union High School District staff in attendance. Approximately twenty nearby residents and property owners were in attendance. There was no direct opposition to the right of way abandonment proposal, but a number of concerns were brought up related to vehicle travel in the area. A more detailed evaluation of the concerns raised at the meeting, along with a traffic evaluation, that was prepared by a consultant for the project, will be included with the staff report for the Public Hearing on May 6, 2026.

Page 1096 of 1107 ends

FISCAL IMPACT
Setting the public hearing date will not result in a fiscal impact.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) does not apply to activities that will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment, or is otherwise not considered a project as defined by CEQA Statute §21065 and CEQA State Guidelines §15060(c)(3) and §15378. The resolution to set a public hearing date meets the above criteria and is not subject to CEQA. The future meeting for the right of way abandonment will include the appropriate environmental review and documentation for the abandonment project.

C ampo Street Clo s u r e

On behalf of R oseville High School and the R oseville Joint U nion High School D istrict we are requesting the permanent closure and vacation of C ampo Street where it intersects our campus. W hile the current temporary closure during school hours provides a ba seline level of security, the existing "hybrid" model creates significant safety gaps and liability risks that can only be resolved through permanent integration into our school grounds.

Our request is centered on four critical pillars of student safety and campus operations:

1. E liminating the "False Sense of Security" and Traffic Hazards

C urrently, C ampo Street is gated during the instructional day but is open to the public immediately before and after the school day. T his creates an unsafe situation for our students.

For seven hours a day, students are conditioned to treat this area as a pedestrian -only zone.

W hen the gates open for before or after school activities, athletics, and events, that ingrained behavior remains. Students frequently cross the street without checking for oncoming traffic because their environment has taught them it is safe to do so. A permanent closure removes the risk of a collision caused by this predictable human error.

2. Securing the "A lleyway G ap" in C ampus Ingress and E gress

T he current street configuration allows for alleyway access points that are not safely secured under the city’ s current thoroughfare requirements.
● C ontrolled E ntry: Permanent closure allows us to gate off alleyway access entirely, funneling all visitors through a single, secure point of entry at the front office. ● Public D eterrence: C urrently, the alleyway provides an unmonitored path for unauthorized individuals to step directly onto campus. By incorporating the street into our campus, and therefore gating off this alleyway, we eliminate this "backdoor" and ensure every person on our grounds has a verified, educational purpose for being there.

CC Attachment 3

Page 1104 of 1107 ends

3 . C reation of a Supervised Student Quad
T he modern high school environment requires centralized spaces where students can be effectively supervised. By reclaiming C ampo Street, we will establish a unified C ampus Quad similar to all of the other schools in our district. This quad allows for enhanced supervision and security, as a unified quad space on campus allows our campus monitors and administration to effectively monitor the entire student body during lunch and transition periods from a central vantage point.
4 . C ampus U nification and C ommunity C ulture
A school split by a public road is a school divided. C urrently, facilities including our C afeteria and Band R oom are physically disconnected from the main instructional buildings via a city street . F encing and gates are also required to secure the main campus from C ampo Street during after -hours effectively splitting the campus in two. Permanent closure allows us to physically and aesthetically unify these spaces, fostering a cohesive culture that prioritizes student belonging and safety over after hours cut -through traffic convenience.

T
he safety of 1,450 students outweighs the convenience of a public thoroughfare during off hours. T he current configuration is not merely an inconvenience; it is a safety deficit that leaves the D istrict and the C ity vulnerable to preventable accidents. We are asking the C ity to partner with us in creating a secure, 21st -century learning environment by vacating C ampo Street and allowing its full incorporation into the R oseville High School campus.

UPDATED PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE
Updated Notice is hereby given that on April 1, 2026 at 6:00 p.m., or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard, the City Council of the City of Roseville will hold a Public Hearing at the Roseville Electric Building, First Floor, 116 S.

The portion of Campo Street to be abandoned is bounded by Alta Vista Avenue to the north and Coronado Avenue to the south. The right of way abandonment is part of the Roseville High School Improvement Project to update and construct a range of facilities. The project includes upgrades to a portion of the Campo Street right of way, including pavement textur e and color connection. This section of Campo Street is currently closed to vehicle traffic during school operating hours. In 1970, the street was closed off from 7:30 am to 4:00 pm by resolution of City Council. In 2013, those hours were expanded to 6:30 am to 4:00 pm.

The Roseville Joint Union High School District has requested that the City undergo the process to permanently abandon the portion of Campo Street right of way within the school campus in order to improve the safety and security of students. Additional information, including reference to a map or plan, is available at https://www.roseville.ca.us/cms/One.aspx?portalId=7964922&pageId=8774480.

The California Streets and Highway Code sections 8320 through 8325 states that the legislative body of a local agency may initiate a General Vacation upon a petition or request of an interested person, at the discretion of the legislative body, where the c lerk of the legislative body shall administratively set a hearing by fixing the date, hour, and place of the hearing. The City Council will consider setting the hearing date, for the General Vacation, for Wednesday, May 6, 2026 at 6:00 p.m, or as soon thereafter as the matter may be heard.
