SUMMARY: The following Water Management Plans are available for review:
 Arvin-Edison Water Storage District

    To meet the requirements of the Central Valley Project Improvement 
Act of 1992 and the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982, the Bureau of 
Reclamation developed and published the Criteria for Evaluating Water 
Management Plans (Criteria). For the purpose of this announcement, 
Water Management Plans (Plans) are considered the same as Water 
Conservation Plans. The above entities have each developed a Plan, 
which Reclamation has evaluated and preliminarily determined to meet 
the requirements of these Criteria. Reclamation is publishing this 
notice in order to allow the public to review the Plans and comment on 
the preliminary determinations. Public comment on Reclamation's 
preliminary (i.e., draft) determination of Plan adequacy is invited at 
this time.

DATES: All public comments must be received by February 10, 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are inviting the public to comment on our 
preliminary (i.e., draft) determination of Plan adequacy. Section 
3405(e) of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (Title 34 Pub. L. 
102-575), requires the Secretary of the Interior to establish and 
administer an office on 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:
    1. Description of the District;
    2. Inventory of Water Resources;
    3. Best Management Practices (BMPs) for Agricultural Contractors;
    4. BMPs for Urban Contractors;
    5. Plan Implementation;
    6. Exemption Process;
    7. Regional Criteria; and
    8. Five-Year Revisions.
    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, California, 
95825. Our practice is to make comments, including names and home 
addresses of respondents, available for public review. If you wish to 
review a copy of these Plans, please contact Ms. Sharp.
