Good morning :)

good morning everyone!!!

Good Morning everyone!

Hi Everyone, Natalie Pavlovski, Cal Water

Good Morning from CVWD/Palm Desert!

I won't admit to Home Depot shopping while zooming :)

Good morning! Melissa Bland from Cambria CSD here

I won't admit to nursing my baby while zooming

Good Morning :)

I've never shopped at Target while on a Zoom! 😉

Good morning everyone. Santa Margarita WD here.

It's called avoiding responsibilities. Happens in my house all the time.

LOL Mostly pondering life <3

Go Natalie!

Are all your contractors QWEL certified or how do you go about getting them involved?

If we request can we get a copy of the Phase 2 study to help other agencies working on climate change? Or have it posted on the CalWEP resources site?

Excellent job Ken!

Nice!!

Online platform is great, thanks for all your work on that!

I still can’t believe these went live this year. It feels like forever ago but it was!

Glad you like it, Madeline! Thanks.

I'm happy to help with the planning committee again! :)

I would also be happy to help with the planning committee.

Thank you, Jenna and Greg!

🤞🏻hope it passes!

Slides will be posted onMyCalWEP later today!

Sarah, Great information! Data is knowledge. Knowledge is how you know what to target to get the right message out.

Ah yes, 2019 BC - Before Covid

Riverside represent! oh...wait...

You’ve got your work cut out for you, Rob! :)

Do we know who is getting those Flumes in Riverside vs. the SF Bay area? how does age of housing stock compare?

Is there a way to account for the "water efficiency bias" of Flume owners? Any idea how significant it might be?

would also be interesting if you could come up with flushes per Toilet Flush Volume... as a proxy of performance.

Nate's suggestion = MIND BLOWN

Do you collect information on the size of the landscapes?

So many toilet volumes at 2 and 2.5gpf may indicate the generic flapper issue destroying water savings from ULFTs and HETs. It's a real problem affecting the longevity of expected water savings. More info on this would be helpful in determining the extent of this problem.

mightn't Marin as a whole be too homogenous to be able to test flume skew?

Marin has diverse service area actually. Water use ranges tremendously.

1,100 is a lot of devices to average across. I expect that when you get that many across a service area you will likely overcome selection bias related to indoor use.

But it's easy to check with billing data to make sure the sample is good.

@Cooper, Valley Water did a pilot about two years ago, we found a significant positive correlation between age and flush volume for 1.6 gpfs where they became less efficient over time (but interestingly ancient 3.5 gpfs still flushed close to 3.5 overall).We didn't publish this work and it was at a single site, but large sample size.

Regarding toilet flush performance, there is a lot more work to be done. Flume Data gives us a way to track trends in flush volumes over time for specific geographies. It's a breakthrough.

yes, very cool Peter!

Hi all. Thanks for the time today. I can be reached at rob@blusinc.com.

Does DWR count parkways in this measurement?

No, DWR does not include parkways. If your agency has a lot of parkways, it may attempt to claim extra area through the DWR Variance process.

Correction: not a variance for parkways, but you work w/ DWR to show/indicate what parkways area should be included in II area.

Note that DWR is provided Landscape ARea for residential parcels, but not CII DIM areas. It will be the responsibility of each agency to provide it's CII DIM LAM, if it has these meter types.

it includes potable, non-potable and recycled dedicated meters too

Thank you CalWEP and CaDC for the threshold comment letter, cost-effectiveness of MUM conversions is a huge barrier!

Questions re: water loss can be emailed directly to our water loss guru Amy Talbot (atalbot@rwah2o.org) (she gave me permission to share her email but maybe not to call her a water loss guru)

This timeline is also posted on calwep.org/framework-updates

Eagle Aerial/NV5 and SAWPA are working on measuring CII DIMs using aerial imagery. Stay tuned. it should be a good first pass for agencies without CII DIM info

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year all!! :)

thanks everyone!
