The City of Santa Ana is deeply committed to saving the City's precious water resources, and has participated in and developed numerous planning documents that address water shortages and conservation alternatives including the NAM Study, as well as the following: • City of Santa Ana Permanent Water Conservation requirements „(I„..II2I%�i%12...IL..q...'. ec�:6oii°1 3...:�..05) ................................................................................................. • C6t: of Sail to Ana StirateGc I1::�Iain ........

These efforts each lend support to the proposed Project; a few of the many examples are described below. Section 7 of the 2017 Santa Ana Water Master Plan identifies "the installation of solar panels at the Garth and West reservoir facilities which will provide the city with sustainable energy." In September 2021, the City of Santa Ana became only the fourth city in the United States to endorse the Fossil Fuel Non -Proliferation Treaty by approving a Climate Emergency Resolution. The resolution commits Santa Ana to "...developing policies as well as courses of action that ....restrict expansion of fossil fuel combustion...." The proposed Project is consistent with and supported by this Treaty. In May 2014, the Santa Ana City Council approved greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets for inclusion in the city's Climate Action Plan (Appendix A), and in December 2015 adopted a resolution to approve the Climate Action Plan that included these targets. The proposed Project will reduce greenhouse gas emissions consistent with this action and the city's Climate Action Plan. This action helped to accomplish Goal 5 of the Santa Ana Strategic Plan, which also meets the state of California objective of reducing statewide greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by 2020 and are on track to achieve the statewide City Council 26 — 31 12/7/2021 21 PREVIEW Date: Nov 03, 2021 Workspace ID: WS00800354 Funding Opportunity Number: R22AS00023
