Central Valley Project water conservation best management practices 
that shall ``develop criteria for evaluating the adequacy of all water 
conservation plans developed by project contractors, including those 
plans required by Section 210 of the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982.'' 
Also, according to Section 3405(e)(1), these criteria must be developed 
``with the purpose of promoting the highest level of water use 
efficiency reasonably achievable by project contractors using best 
available cost-effective technology and best management practices.'' 
These criteria state that all parties (Contractors) that contract with 
Reclamation for water supplies (municipal and industrial contracts over 
2,000 acre-feet and agricultural contracts over 2,000 irrigable acres) 
must prepare a Plan that contains the following information:

    Reclamation evaluates Plans based on these criteria. A copy of 
these Plans will be available for review at Reclamation's Mid-Pacific 
Regional Office, 2800 Cottage Way, MP-410, Sacramento, CA 95825. Our
