Water Supply Challenges Present a Unique Opportunity for Program Partners

Partners rely on water from the CVP
Historical CVP allocations are widely variable
DPWD is also subject to the Rescheduling Period for water

stored in San Luis Reservoir; Exchange Contractors have no access to storage in SLR

SLIDE 3

Average CVP Allocations from 2010 to 2019 Were 37%

SLIDE 4

Partners Have Experienced Significant Shortages and Decreased Reliability

DPWD’s average surface water need is ~90,000 AFY but average contractual water supplies over the last 10 years has been ~42,000 AFY

SLIDE 5

Why Del Puerto Canyon Reservoir? Provide Locally-Owned and Controlled South of Delta Water Storage

DPCR Is Seeking WIIN Act Funding

DPCR is a state-led project under

the WIIN Act

Eligible for up to 25% of the total

construction cost

Per WIIN, California projects must
btain a finding from the California

Water Commission that the project is consistent with Prop 1

Requires consistency with Prop 1

generally, not with a specific chapter

SLIDE 10

DPCR is Consistent with Prop 1

 Develops more resilient and sustainably managed water

infrastructure

 Increases regional water security and regional water self-

reliance

 Improves water supply reliability  Helps respond/adapt to climate change impacts  Leverages local funding  Increases agency collaboration  Consistent with State and Federal Wild and Scenic Rivers Act
