About the Delta Conveyance Project Hearing
The State Water Resources Control Board Administrative Hearings Office is holding a public hearing about the Delta Conveyance Project. The hearing addresses water right change petitions filed by the Department of Water Resources, which propose to add two new points of diversion and rediversion to water right Permits 16478, 16479, 16481, and 16482. The purpose of the hearing is to gather evidence that the State Water Board will consider to determine whether to approve the petitions and, if so, what specific terms and conditions the Board should include in the amended water right permits. If the Board approves these petitions, the Department of Water Resources would have a right to divert water from the Sacramento River in the northern portion of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary and convey the water through a tunnel to existing water distribution facilities in the southern Delta.
