The Final EIS/EIR addresses water
transfers to Central Valley Project (CVP)
contractors south of the Delta and in the
San Francisco Bay area from CVP and
non-CVP sources from north of the Delta
using Delta pumps (both CVP and State
Water Project (SWP) facilities). Water
transfers could occur through various
methods such as groundwater
substitution, cropland idling, reservoir
release, and conservation, and could
include individual and multiyear
transfers from 2015 through 2024.
SUMMARY:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Hydrologic conditions, climatic
variability, and regulatory requirements
for operation of water projects
commonly affect water supply
availability in California. Project
supplies are often the primary source of
water for south of Delta users, and the
complex factors constraining
operational decisions not only strain
total annual water supplies, but
regularly create mismatched timing
between planting decisions and
announcement of final water supply
allocations, making advance planning
for water shortages necessary and
routine. These conditions and resulting
shortages create a need for water
transfers to help meet water demands.
The purpose of the Long-Term Water
Transfers EIS/EIR is to facilitate
voluntary water transfers from willing
sellers upstream of the Delta to water
users south of the Delta and in the San
Francisco Bay Area. The maximum
approvable quantity transferable to any
contractor cannot exceed that
contractor’s total contract supply, but
instead helps to make up for shortages.
Such transfers need to be
implementable within narrow annual
windows for decisions on each end and
flexible enough to address highly
