Document Description
The proposed project is a modification of IRWD's SWRCB Permit for Diversion and use of water (permit 20979), which is an appropriate water right to divert water from the San Diego Creek for "Wildlife Enhancement" at the IRWD San Joaquin Marsh. The San Joaquin Marsh is a constructed treatment wetland, and water is discharged back to San Diego Creek with improved water quality. The proposed modifications would include changing the Place of Use to include the entirety of IRWD's San Joaquin Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary and the neighboring Freshwater Marsh Reserve owned by the UC NRS and increase the Rate of Diversion from 5 cfs to 13.3 cfs. The proposed project would not change the permit's face value of 3,600 AFY.
