Drought Vulnerability Classification
Inadequate System – There is greater than a 50% probability that the current system would not be able to provide the community’s current rate of water demand through a severe drought similar to the drought of record.Drought Adequacy Description
If a drought similar to the 1955-1957 drought of record were to recur today, it is estimated with 50% confidence that the current system would be able to support a demand of 1.45 mgd (the mid- or best yield estimate). It is estimated with 90% confidence that the current system would be able to support a demand of 0.89 mgd. Because the system would not be able to fulfill the community’s current demand of 2.04 mgd with 50% confidence, the drought vulnerability of the system is classified as INADEQUATE.Additional Notes
