Document Description
The District is petitioning the State Water Resources Control Board, Division of Water Rights, the change Water Right Permit 15452 to extend the diligence period to build out maximum beneficial use of the water. The existing Bear Creek project diverts water from Bear Creek, regulates it in a small off-stream reservoir, and stores water from December 1st to May 30th for use during dry season. If a time extension is granted, the District will need to build additional infrastructure to make full beneficial use of the water right, through some additional level of service can be provided by existing facilities. Potential long-range improvements may include dredging the regulating reservoir, expanding water treatment capacity, extending the distribution system, and retrofitting pumping facilities. However, no expansion or improvements are identified in the immediate future.
