In 2021 it was calculated that the total ERCs was 41,976. This value accounts for the existing water demand on the system. Future growth is being determined by the assumed densities and growth rates discussed in the previous section. Figure 2-4 shows the ERC projections for the two planning scenarios. The low-density projection follows the population growth curve described above. The high-density projection follows the same general growth pattern but has been scaled up to match the buildout ERCs for the higher density scenario.
