Document Description
The California Department of Water Resources allocated funds to the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California (Metropolitan) to help finance Southern California water reliability projects targeting groundwater conjunctive use projects within Metropolitan's service area. Conjunctive use projects improve the water supply reliability for the entire region by creating additional dry-year supply. The Upper Claremont Heights Conjunctive Use Program (Program) will enable Metropolitan to store up to 3,000 acre-feet of water in the Upper Claremont Heights Basin when surplus water is available during wet years and produce 1,000 acre-feet per year for three years to meet TVMWD's water demands during dry, drought, or emergency periods. The Program includes construction of a new well and a connection to the San Antonio Spreading Grounds. Under the agreement, Metropolitan will pay for costs of operations and maintenance of the well and energy costs for extraction of stored water.
