Document Description
The proposed project involves a five-year transfer agreement of State Water Project (SWP) supplies between MWD and Homer LLC. Under the agreement, MWD would annually assess its water supplies and determine whether it has surplus SWP water to transfer. If MWD determines it has surplus water, Homer would be obligated to purchase the surplus SWP water at a predetermined unit price. The transfer would take place at the SWP Banks Pumping Plant. No new or upgraded physical infrastructure would be required to implement the transfer agreement because Banks Pumping Plant and connections to Kern County Water Agency and Homer LLC facilities currently exist and are in regular use for delivery of SWP supplies via Kern County Water Agency.
