AWARD PURPOSE:THE SAN LORENZO VALLEY WATER DISTRICT WILL UPGRADE 522 RESIDENTIAL AND MULTI RESIDENTIAL WATER METERS WITH WATER METERS THAT HAVE ADVANCED METERING INFRASTRUCTURE CAPABILITIES. ACTIVITIES TO BE PERFORMED:REPLACE 522 EXISTING MANUAL-READ WATER METERS WITH NEW AMI METERSINSTALL 522 NEW ENDPOINTSPROJECT OUTCOMES:THE UPGRADED WATER METERS WILL ALLOW FOR THE RAPID DETECTION OF LEAKS AND WILL IMPROVE OPERATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS. OTHER WATER DISTRICTS HAVE REPORTED WATER SAVINGS TO BE 15 ON AVERAGE AMONG RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERS AFTER THE INSTALLATION OF AMI METERS. ELIMINATING THE NEED TO MANUALLY READ AMR METERS WILL SUBSTANTIALLY REDUCE TRUCK ROLLS, SAVING FUEL AND MAINTENANCE COSTS ALONG WITH STAFF TIME AND COSTS. INTENDED BENEFICIARIES:THE DISTRICT RELIES ON SURFACE WATER FROM THE SAN LORENZO RIVER AND ITS TRIBUTARIES FOR 54 PERCENT OF ITS WATER SUPPLY. THE ANTICIPATED WATER SAVINGS FROM THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL NOT ONLY BENEFIT THE DISTRICT BUT WILL BENEFIT DOWNSTREAM WATER USERS, IN PARTICULAR THE CITY OF SANTA CRUZ WHICH RELIES UPON THE SURFACE WATERS OF THE SAN LORENZO RIVER. THE PROJECT WILL BENEFIT RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERS ALONG WITH A GOLF COURSE AND HORSE STABLES. THE ECOSYSTEM WILL ALSO BENEFIT AS A RESULT OF REDUCED DIVERSIONS AND GROUND BASIN PUMPING WHICH WILL PROVIDE BENEFITS TO SPECIES THAT DEPEND ON FLOWING SURFACE WATERS IN THE SAN LORENZO RIVER SYSTEM AND WILL CONTRIBUTE TO HEALTHIER RIPARIAN HABITAT.
