Title

Smith Family Trust Petition to Change Water Right License 2805

Description

Petition to Change License 2805 proposes to relocate an existing point of diversion (POD) ~600 ft eastward from Department of Water Resources-owned land to land owned by the Smith Family Trust. The POD is located in the northwestern corner of the project site on the Reclamation District by 1002 Drainage Canal, which is tributary to Dredger Cut, also referred to as Lost Slough, which is a tributary to Snodgrass Slough. Relocation of the POD would involve removal of an existing pump and placement of the same or similar type of new pump. A power line with a transformer exists at the existing pump location. Sacramento Municipal Utilityi District intends to extend power from existing power lines by adding three poles along the northern bank of the Reclamation District 1002 Drainage Canal and extending aerial lines over the ditch channel to transfer power to the new pump. A new pipeline would be extended from the proposed pump ~500 ft southeast across an existing agricultural field and connected to an existing pipeline. The relocation of the POD would not change the amount of water diverted under the license or authorized place of use.
