CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers DATE:April 19, 2022 FROM: Alan Mitchell, Consulting Engineer THROUGH: Kathleen Salguero Trepa, City Manager SUBJECT: Presentation of Technical Memorandum Regarding Winters Groundwater Level and Water Budget Evaluation RECOMMENDATION: Note and File BACKGROUND: The City of Winters relies entirely on groundwater wells for domestic, fire, and irrigation supply. On January 21, 2020, the City Council approved a contract with Woodard & Curran (W&C), for on-call water system engineering services. As development projects submit their specific development plans, staff has historically used W&C to evaluate those plans and provide system modeling services to confirm existing conditions and to identify improvements, and timing for those improvements, required to maintain consistency with the Water Master Plan. Also, as issues arise with the city’s existing water supply system, staff utilizes W&C to review those issues and provide recommendations. DISCUSSION In August 2021, staff requested that W&C coordinate with the Yolo Subbasin Groundwater Agency (YSGA) as it finalized its draft Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP); and the City Manager approved Task Order No. 21-004WC in the amount not to exceed $5,000. Specific tasks included: 1. Review and evaluate the draft GSP and the data specifically focused on the City of Winters; evaluate water production and consumption information; and review the proposed sustainable management criteria as it relates to Winters; 34

2 2. Prepare a brief technical memorandum to summarize the review of the GSP; and 3. Provide recommendations to the City for managing the water supply and water consumption in the context of the proposed sustainable management criteria. A Technical Memo was finalized in November 19, 2021, Attachment 1, and will be presented to the City Council at the April 19, 2022 meeting in conjunction with a presentation by staff of the Yolo Subbasin Groundwater Agency. This information is being presented in the context of a proposed update to the Winters Water Master Plan of 2006, which is presented as a separate item on the same agenda. FISCAL IMPACT: The preparation of the technical memo cost $5,000. ATTACHMENT: 1. Technical Memorandum dated November 19, 2021 2. Presentation 35

City of Winters (0011583.04) 1 Woodard & Curran, Inc. Groundwater Level and Budget Evaluation TM_110921 November 2021 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM TO: Alan. Mitchell, P.E., City Engineer, City of Winters PREPARED BY: Richard Sturn, PG, CHG Amber Ritchie, PG, CHG REVIEWED BY: Janet Fordunski, PE DATE: November 19, 2021 RE: City of Winters Groundwater Level and Budget Evaluation 1. INTRODUCTION This TM addresses community concerns regarding the sustainability of groundwater supplies to support residential development in the City of Winters (City). The data evaluated include groundwater levels and trends, precipitation, groundwater pumping and demand estimates, and long-term projections of population and demand. In addition, information from the Groundwater Sustainability Plan for the Yolo Subbasin (GSP) will be used to offer insights on groundwater budgets and long-term groundwater level and demand projections. Major points to be addressed in this TM include: 1) Are groundwater levels declining in City wells? 2) What is the total consumption of groundwater from City wells and how does this compare to the overall groundwater budget? 3) Are the planned residential developments sustainable from a groundwater supply perspective? 2. GROUNDWATER LEVELS Groundwater levels were measured in the five City wells intermittently from 2001 to 2013, typically at quarterly or seasonal frequencies. Since summer 2013, groundwater levels have been measured monthly. Groundwater levels are measured as depth below ground surface (BGS) and are typically reported to the nearest foot. Figure 1 shows the recorded groundwater levels in the City’s five active production wells from 2001-September 2021. There was an instrumentation error in Well 7 which caused an offset in the data, showing more drawdown from July 2017 to March 2021 than was present. The error has since been corrected, and data from Spring 2021 to present are accurate. 36

City of Winters (0011583.04) 2 Woodard & Curran, Inc. Groundwater Level and Budget Evaluation TM_110921 November 2021 Figure 1. Depth to Groundwater for City Production Wells – 2001 through 2021 Between 2001 and 2020, groundwater levels in City wells have declined at an average rate of approximately one foot per year for Wells 2, 4, and 6. Groundwater levels in Well 5 have declined at a rate of approximately two feet per year. The 2017-2020 data for Well 7 is incorrect; however, the water level in May 2021 is approximately 25 feet lower than in May 2013, suggesting a drawdown of approximately three feet per year. Seasonal groundwater level fluctuations are on the order of 20 to 40 feet and reflect greater pumping demands during the summer than in the winter. Current (September 2021) groundwater levels for Wells 2, 5 and 6 exceed 110 feet and are at or near historic low levels. Climatic trends appear to influence groundwater levels for the City’s wells. Figure 2 summarizes the total precipitation at Winters (CIMIS Station 139) by water year (WY, October through September) for 2000 through 2020 with water years classified as wet, above normal, below normal, dry, or critically dry based on conditions in the larger watershed. The long-term average annual precipitation in Winters is 24.31 inches. Overall, conditions were dryer than normal during WYs 2007- 2015 with significant drought periods during WYs 2007-2009 and WYs 2013-2015. Conditions were wet or had above normal precipitation in WY 2017 and WY 2019, but conditions were dry again in WY 2020. In general, groundwater level trends in City wells (Figure 2) show declining water levels during dry periods (WY 2007 though WY 2015) and recent drought years (WYs 2013-2015, and WY2020) with groundwater levels partially rebounding during wet years (WYs 2017 and 2019). 37

City of Winters (0011583.04) 3 Woodard & Curran, Inc. Groundwater Level and Budget Evaluation TM_110921 November 2021 Figure 2. Precipitation For Winters (CMIS Station 139) – Water Years 2000 through 2020 Groundwater level trends for other wells in the Yolo Subbasin also correlate with climatic conditions. Figure 3 shows basin-wide average groundwater elevations over time and the water year type for the Yolo Subbasin. In general, the overall groundwater level trends for the period 2000 to 2020 are similar to those for the City’s wells: groundwater levels fall during dry periods (WY 2007 to WY 2015) and recover during wet periods (WY 2017 and WY 2019). This figure also illustrates longer-term trend of groundwater drawdown and recovery in the Subbasin. The deep groundwater storage declines following drought periods and storage recovery in the intervening wet periods suggest that groundwater is lost from storage in dry years and recharge occurs in wet years, providing basin-wide recovery. Over the past 50 years, there is no evidence of basin-wide overdraft (i.e., long-term pumping exceeding recharge) Yolo Subbasin Draft GSP, August 2021). Figure 3.

City of Winters (0011583.04) 4 Woodard & Curran, Inc. Groundwater Level and Budget Evaluation TM_110921 November 2021 Although, the groundwater levels in the City’s wells are influenced by precipitation trends, agricultural demands in the area may also impact water levels. Despite decreased groundwater pumping by the City since 2005 (Section 3), groundwater levels in the City’s wells did not fully recover to 2005 levels after 2015/2016 drought period. According to the GSP, this drought period and the shift to perennial agricultural around this same time drove increased pumping basin-wide. New orchards were planted north of Winters in 2014, and the associated groundwater pumping may have also influenced groundwater levels in the City’s wells. Attachment A includes additional discussion of water levels trends for other wells in the Winters area and to the south and west of Winters. Most of these wells show similar water level trends to those of the City’s production wells. Water level trends for several wells located west of Winters, however, show long-term declines without recovery d
