2015 Water Transfer Program

2015 Water Transfer Program

The SEWD proposes to sell up to 16,843 acre-feet of water to the participating member districts of the State Water Project Contractors Incorporated or other South of Delta purchasers, including one or more Central Valley Project contractors (Buyers) during the 2015 irrigation season. Buyers are seeking up to approximately 194,000 af of transfer water from various willing sellers in the Sacramento Valley during the 2015 irrigation season. Purchasing this water would lessen potential water supply shortages to these Buyers that may occur as a result of dry hydrologic conditions and regulatory restrictions on pumping in the Delta.
