Title: Conveyance of State Water Project Water in Federal Facilities in Santa Clara Valley Water District, 2015-2019
Summary: Reclamation proposes to issue a five-year Warren Act contract to Santa Clara that would allow conveyance of up to 300,000 acre-feet (AF) of Santa Clara?s available SWP water supplies through federal facilities at times when excess capacity exists (annually no more than 60,000 AF). The contract would cover the period between June 2015 and December 2019. Santa Clara?s SWP supplies may be from the following sources: - SWP carryover supplies - SWP Table A contract supplies - Previously-stored SWP water from Semitropic Santa Clara?s available SWP supplies would be pumped at the Harvey O. Banks Pumping Plant and conveyed through the California Aqueduct to O?Neill Forebay. The water would then be pumped into San Luis Reservoir and conveyed through the San Felipe Division in the same manner that Santa Clara receives its CVP water supplies. The proposal would be coordinated with the California Department of Water Resources for use of SWP facilities prior to movement of water in a given year.
