Title:
Contra Costa Water District Alternative Intake Project EIR/EIS
Site:
Summary:
Contra Costa Water District (CCWD) relies entirely upon the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta for its supply, which includes both the Central Valley Project (CVP) water and water diverted under CCWD water rights. Water quality problems for CCWD result from elevated concentrations of salinity, minerals, bromide and organic carbon, and turbidity in Delta source water. Seasonal water quality fluctuations and drought conditions in the Delta make it more difficult for CCWD to meet increasingly stringent drinking water regulations and the water quality objective CCWD has set for service to its customers. The proposed action would involve adding a new point of diversion to certain existing water rights held by CCWD and by Reclamation. The new intake in the southwest Delta would tie into the existing Old River Intake and Pump Station and improve operational flexibility to divert from either location to provide the highest water quality. CCWD and Reclamation only seek to add a point of diversion with no increase in water rights, capacity, CVP contract amounts, or Los Vaqueros Reservoir filling or release rates.
