Santa Ana River Water Rights Applications for Supplemental Water Supply

Santa Ana River Water Rights Applications for Supplemental Water Supply

The San Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District (Muni) and Western Municipal Water District of Riverside County (Western) have entered into an agreement to be Co-Lead Agencies for an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) to be prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The proposed project involves the diversion, when available, by the project co-proponents of water from the Santa Ana River. Such diversions will be made possible by the construction of new water conveyance facilities, use of existing pipelines, and the coordinated use of underground storage basins and surface water storage facilities. The majority of the facilities necessary to put the water to beneficial use are located within the service areas of the project co-proponents.
