At the last meeting, a letter from a member was shared that said the intakes at these locations could not be approved by the Water Resources Control Board and Delta Stewardship Council during the WaterFix project. What has changed since the previous project to make the proposed intake sites viable?
June 15, 2020Is there an option to have more intakes with a smaller capacity?
June 15, 2020The ITR report is merely a single data point. As such, it is being considered with the evaluation results of many design, construction and operations considerations. The ITR report only considered a subset of the engineering and geographical issues relevant to tunnel construction activities, as noted by several tunnel construction contractors and tunnel manufacturers, and does not represent detailed conclusions about Central or Eastern Corridor options. Moreover, the ITR expressly did not consider other relevant environmental factors that will be considered through the CEQA process.
