English term or phrase: One-time draw

I am translating from English to Spanish some specifications given in a ecological classroom (Smith College's). I cannot understand the idea of "draw" here, specifically "one-time draws". What does it mean for you? How can you translate it? Thanks!

WATER
Annual Water Use
12,883 gallons per year (recorded first year use that included some significant one-time draws)

extracción única

Explanation:
Es decir, serían "extracciones" (o usos de) agua realizadas de una vez...

Así lo entiendo yo, sin más contexto.

Saludos cordiales.
