Summary

Under existing law, the Department of Water Resources performs duties relating to water resources throughout the state, and the State Water Resources Control Board exercises regulatory functions relating to water quality. Existing law, the Water Quality, Supply, and Infrastructure Improvement Act of 2014, approved by the voters as Proposition 1 at the November 4, 2014, statewide general election, authorizes the issuance of general obligation bonds in the amount of $7,545,000,000 to finance a water quality, supply, and infrastructure improvement program. The California Constitution provides that, from all state revenues, there shall first be set apart the moneys to be applied by the state for support of the public school system and public institutions of higher education, and establishes a minimum amount to be applied for the support of school districts and community college districts, as specified. This measure would provide that, in addition, from specified state revenues, there shall be set apart, in unspecified percentages, moneys to be applied by the state for the payment of principal and interest on bonds authorized pursuant to the Water Quality, Supply, and Infrastructure Improvement Act of 2014 and, of the amount remaining, for specified water projects of the Department of Water Resources and the State Water Resources Control Board, as provided.
