Summary

(1) Under existing law, the City and County of San Francisco operates the Hetch Hetchy Project as a regional water delivery system, supplying water to persons and entities in San Francisco and the Counties of Alameda, San Mateo, and Santa Clara. Existing law, the San Francisco Bay Area Regional Water System Financing Authority Act, establishes the San Francisco Bay Area Regional Water System Financing Authority and authorizes the authority to issue revenue bonds and take other actions to improve the reliability of the regional water system of the City and County of San Francisco. Existing law, the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency Act, governs the formation and operation of the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency. The act authorizes the agency to acquire water and water rights, and take other specified actions relating to the regional water system of the City and County of San Francisco. This bill would modify the definitions of "public entities" and "eligible public entities," as specified, and the reference to "master water sales contract," as set forth in the acts, to reflect changes in the membership of the authority and agency and a recent water supply agreement, dated July 2009, between the City and County of San Francisco and certain wholesale customers. (2) Existing law authorizes the agency to apply for and receive specified financial assistance. This bill would clarify the types of financial assistance available to the agency. The bill would also authorize the agency to assist specified entities to meet specified urban water use targets and, if requested by specified entities, to develop and administer a regional conservation program. The bill would also consider the agency to be a local agency for purposes of specified law. (3) Existing law authorizes any director of the agency to call for weighted voting, which is required to be based on specified water delivery quantities. This bill would require an entity's water delivery quantity to be increased for purposes of weighted voting when specified circumstances occur, without the necessity of an amendment to the water delivery quantities. (4) Existing law requires directors of the agency and the authority to take an oath of office. This bill would authorize specified persons to administer the oath.
