DWR certifies EIR for Monterey Amendment to State Water Project contracts

Posted by: Aqua Blog Maven on February 5, 2010 at 8:02 am

From the Delta e-News:

“DWR on Monday certified the Monterey Plus Final EIR for the Monterey Amendment to the State Water Project Contracts (Including kern Water Bank Transfer) and Associated Actions as Part of a Settlement Agreement (Monterey Plus).

The Monterey EIR is aimed at identifying potential environmental impacts resulting from modifications to water supply contracts. In 1994, DWR and some of the contractors, meeting in Monterey,
executed the Monterey Agreement to modify the long-term water supply contracts. These modifications were incorporated into the long-term water supply contracts in what became known as the Monterey Amendment.

A decision regarding approval of the proposed project will be made later.”
