Summary
Under existing law, the Department of Water Resources operates the State Water Resources Development System that includes dams, reservoirs, and other infrastructure. This bill would require the department to undertake an expedited evaluation and feasibility study with regard to the implementation of a specified Delta Corridors Plan as part of the State Water Resources Development System. The bill would require the department to consult with the Department of Fish and Game to study specified impacts and benefits of the Delta Corridors Plan and to include in the study an assessment of the incorporation of the Two-Gates Fish Protection Demonstration Project managed by the United States Bureau of Reclamation into the Delta Corridors Plan. The department would be required to prepare and submit to the Legislature, on or before January 1, 2013, a report that includes its feasibility findings. If the department determines the implementation of the plan is feasible, the department would be required to include recommendations with regard to specific facilities to be constructed, and to identify potential funding sources, for the purposes of implementing the plan. This bill would declare the intent of the Legislature to appropriate money to the department to pay the costs of the feasibility study required by this bill.
