R. 27E. ~o,.~,,,,~ ~ ~-- II I~~ 1:30,000 I/~//'//'..~! Project Site (-300 acres) , Canal I ~ ~ PROJECT LOCATION MAP Fi~uro Ouad Knop[ VII.CONCLUSIONS The following are the findings of the water supply assessment for the Gosford-Panama Development Project: 1. The projected water demand associated with the proposed project was accounted for in the City of Bakersfield Urban Water Management Plan, November 2000. 2. The projected water demand for the project is 1,041 AF/yr. 3. The existing water demands for the project under its current agriculture use is approximately 1,069 AF/yr. Thus, there is a slight decrease in overall basin water demand. 4. The City's overall water supply will be increased with annexation of the project site. The site is within the service area of the Kern Delta Water District Stine Canal. The water available to the land from the Stine Canal will remain with the land, subject to a 1976 Agreement between the District and City. 5. Groundwater will be available in sufficient supply to meet the project and other planned future water demands. Even though the Tulare Lake Hydrologic region is in overdraft in the average year, the portion of the basin within the City of Bakersfield is not in overdraft, except in a multiple dry year scenario. 6. The groundwater supply will be sufficient in a normal year, single dry year and multiple dry years scenarios. The multiple dry year scenario will likely require extractions from the 2800 Acres water bank. 7. The City has adequate surface water supply to supplement the use of groundwater in the City service area. The use of surface water will greatly enhance the overall supply. 8. The proposed project will have no impact on the overall water balance in the Kern County hydrologic subbasin. It is concluded that the City of Bakersfield domestic water system has sufficient capacity to supply the project and other projected demands included in the UWMP. Recommendations It is recommended that the City of Bakersfield Water Board approve this assessment and forward the report to the City of Bakersfield Planning Department for inclusion in the EIR for the subject project. The Water Resource Department should issue a "will serve" letter for the project. City of Bakersfield October 25, 2004 Draft Water Supply Assessment Page 14 Water Board Meeting December 7, 2004 8.
