Agency: Delta Stewardship Council

Subject: Association of California Water Agencies’ Comments Regarding Revisions to the Draft Delta Plan Amendment Regarding Conveyance, Storage Systems, and the Operation of Both

Letter excerpt:

The coequal goals should be implemented with a comprehensive approach for the sustainable development, management, and protection of California’s water resources. For water supply reliability, all of the tools in the toolbox are needed. The current draft CSO amendment will help advance the storage, conveyance, and operations elements as part of “a portfolio of actions to comprehensively address” California’s water challenges. These challenges are identified in Governor Brown’s California Water Action Plan. This comprehensive approach is also articulated in ACWA’s Statewide Water Action Plan for California (ACWA SWAP), and is broadly supported by public water agencies statewide. The ACWA SWAP identifies a Delta solution as “a critical component of a broader set of actions that will address water supply reliability and ecosystem health in California.”
