The framework has four conditions, each calling increasing levels of conservation. <br /> Descriptions for each of the four conditions are listed below: <br /> ■ Baseline Water Use Efficiency: Ongoing conservation, outreach, and recycling programs to achieve <br /> permanent reductions in water use and build storage reserves. <br /> ■ Condition 1 Water Supply Watch: Local agency voluntary dry-year conservation measures and use <br /> of regional storage reserves. <br /> ■ Condition 2 Water Supply Alert: Regional call for cities, counties, member agencies, and retail water <br /> agencies to implement extraordinary conservation through drought ordinances and other measures <br /> to mitigate use of storage reserves. <br /> ■ Condition 3 Water Supply Allocation: Implement MET's WSAP. <br /> As noted in Condition 3, should supplies become limited to the point where imported water demands <br /> cannot be met, MET will allocate water through the WSAP (MET, 2026a). <br /> 2 .t mt i Water Supply Allocation Plan <br /> MET's imported supplies have been impacted by a number of water supply challenges as noted earlier. In <br /> case of extreme water shortage within the MET service area is the implementation of its WSAP. <br /> CITY OF SANTA ANA <br />
