System Reliability and Water Conservation <br />White Paper Content (continued) <br />• Water Conservation, <br />Drought Response, <br />Water Supply Reliability, <br />and Demand Hardening <br />– Since conservation savings <br />are achieved by existing <br />customers it is important <br />that the supply reliability for <br />these customers not be <br />negatively impacted as <br />new customers are added <br />to a system <br />21 <br />DRAFT Conclusions <br />• Some portion of conserved water can be used to <br />serve new customers without negatively <br />impacting reliability as long as the constrained <br />drought demand does not increase <br />• Suggests that a portion of conserved water is a <br />resource that may be used to serve new <br />customers under the right set of circumstances <br />• Simplified analysis also highlights the <br />importance of considering the unique interplay of <br />demands, supply, and storage on case - by - case <br />bases for each water supply system <br />22 <br />11 <br />
