| Type of Diversion | Diversion to Storage Only | |||
| Comments | There was insufficient flow in the San Jacinto River in the months of February, and June through December 2020, that prevented Eastern Municipal Water District (EMWD) from diverting water during these months. EMWD only diverted water in the months of January and March through May, 2020. EMWD's diversion license only allows diversions that are collected to storage, therefore no direct diversion was used. | |||
| 5. Water Diversion Measurement | |

| a. Required to measure as of the date this report is submitted | Yes |
| b. Is diversion measured? | Yes |
| c. An alternative compliance plan was submitted to the division of water rights on | |
| d. A request for additional time was submitted to the division of water rights on | |
| Measurement ID number | M001644 |
| This Device/Method was used to measure water during the current reporting period | Yes |
| M1. Briefly describe the measurement device or method | Ultra-sonic sensor in a 5-foot Parshall Flume with staff gauge |
| M2. Nickname | Grant Flume 577 |
| M3. Type of device / method | Flume |
| M4. Device make | Utility Systems Science and Software, Inc. |
| M5. Serial number | 1228 |
| M6. Model number | Cricket RTU |
| M7. Approximate date of installation | 12/01/2015 |
| M8. Additional info | The ultra-sonic sensor reads and records the height of water in the 5-foot Parshall Flume every 5 minutes with telemetry to cloud services. The average height of water in the flume over a 24 hour period is used to calculate the diverted volume of water in acre-feet per day. |
| M9. Approximate date the measuring device was last calibrated or the measurement method was updated | 05/16/2020 |
| M10. Estimated accuracy of measurement | 0.01% |
| M11. Description of calibration method | Ultra-sonic sensor is calibrated to height of water in 5-foot Parshall Flume as observed on the existing staff gauge in the flume when flowing water is present, and calibrated to (0.0 inches + 0.1 inches) when the flume is dry. |
| M12. Describe the maintenance schedule for the device/method | Ultra-sonic sensor is re-calibrated annually. Battery in sensor is replace every three years. |
| Information for the person who last calibrated the device or designed the measurement method | |
