BY THE CHIEF OF THE DIVISION OF WATER RIGHTS:
1.0 SUBSTANCE OF PETITION
On April 11, 2008,
South Sutter Water District
c/o Marc Van Camp
MBK Engineers
2450 Alhambra Boulevard, 2"d Floor
Sacramento, CA 95817-1125
filed with the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) a Petition for Temporary Change
under Water Code section 1725, et seq. South Sutter Water District's(SSWD) petition requests the transfer
of up to 10,000 acre-feet(af)of water to several State Water Contract agencies(hereinafter collectively
referred to as the SWC Agencies)for use within the State Water Project(SWP} service area. Temporary
changes approved pursuant to Water Code section 1725 may be effective for up to one year from the date
of approval.
1.1 Description of the Transfer. SSWD proposes to transfer up to 10,000 of of water under
License 11118 (Application 14804)to the SWC Agencies. The SWC Agencies involved in this water
transfer are the Dudley Ridge Water District, the Kern County Water Agency, the Napa County Flood
Control and Water Conservation District, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, the San
Bernardino Valley Municipal Water District, the Antelope Valley East Kern Water Agency, the Palmdale
Water District, and the Tulare Lake Basin Water Storage District. To facilitate the transfer, SSWD proposes
to release 10,000 of of water currently stored in Camp Far West Reservoir to the Bear River thence the
Feather River thence the Sacramento River thence the San Francisco Bay/Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta
for rediversion at the Clifton Court Forebay or the Barker Slough Pumping Plant.
SSWD's petition states that its landowners receive their base water supply from groundwater pumping and
receive supplemental water from Camp Far West Reservoir. The petition states that landowners will not
change their cropping patterns due to the transfer. The petition states that in the absence of this transfer,
the subject 10,000 of of water would either remain in storage within Camp Far West Reservoir or be
released for use within SSWD.

1.3 Availability mfWater for Transfer. SSVVU'opetition states that its landowners receive their base
water supply from groundwater pumping and receive supplemental water from Camp Far West Reservoir.
The petition states that landowners will not change their cropping patterns due to the transfer. 0GVVO
anticipates that as a result of the proposed transfer up to 10,000 additional af of groundwater pumping could
occur. SSWD, the SWC Agencies, and Department of Water Resources(DWR) have entered into an
agreement for storage and conveyance cfthe water transferred pursuant tothe proposed temporary
changes(Tronsh*rAgnoemend. Appendix Aofthe Transfer AQpeernentincludes procedures for mnonitohng

impacts to other parties.
1'4 Other Agency Consultation. Prior b)submitting the petition tothe State Water Board the
petitioner submitted acopy twthe Department VfFish and Game(DFG). Prior bnissuance ofthe public
notice for the proposed temporary change, representatives of DFG contacted Division staff regarding
several temporary changes within the northern Sacramento Valley(including 1he subject change). DFGmtaff
did not identify any concerns regarding impacts to fish,wildlife, or other beneficial uses. DFGdid not submit
comments regarding the proposed temporary change.
2.0 BACKGROUND
2'1 Substance mfSSWD"s Permits. License 11118 (Application 148O41authorizes the diversion bm
storage of up to 58,370 af of water per annum from the Bear River between October 1 and June 30.
License 11118also authorizes the direct diversion from the Bear River ofupto33Ocubic feet per second
(oh*)b�tmmenK4ay1ondSeptennber1ofeaohyear. ThepVintnfdiversiontomtonagefnrLioenuw11118im
located` ^ etthe Camp Far West Dam. Additionally, the Camp Far West Diversion Dam (located about one
mile downstream ofthe Camp Far West Dam) haanauthorized pointofdirect diversion and nadiveroionbm
storage.
The water is used for irrigation and domestic purposes within the authorized place of use, as well as
incidental power generation. The authorized place ofuse under License 11118imonet of68.00Oacres
within gross area of 65,796 acres within SSWD, a net of 4,180 acres within the Camp Far West Irrigation
District(including 102 acres outside its boundaries served under contract), and a power generation plant
located onSSVVD'oconveyance canal.
In order to protect fish,resources downstream of the Camp Far West Diversion Dam, SSWD is required to
bv000a25�sbetwee/ April �
1andJune3Oof�a�hye�rand1UsbebweenJuh1andyWaroh31ofthe
succeeding
edingyoar. Additionally, 8SVVD (with other parties within the Bear River watershed) has entered into
onognmoment/raAenedbnasthe Bear River Agreement)withDVRto meet the
Bear River watershed's
responsibilitiesfor
Bay`Da|te flow objectives. This agreement requires SSVVO to make up to 4,400 nyof
water available hoDVVHduring dry and critical water years. SSWD'epetition states that the water intended
for transfer is in addition to the water released to DWR pursuant to the Bear River Agreement. Additional
information regarding the Bear River Agreement is on file with the State Water Board under
Application 14804.
2'2 Southern Delta Salinity. In Revised Decision 1641 (D-1641)the State Water Board added water
quality objectives for the protection of agricultural beneficial uses(including salinity objectives at three
southern Delta locations)to the SWP and the Central Valley Project(CVP)water rights. These objectives
are contained inTable 2. located onpage 182ofD-1041. Additionally, inC-1G41the State Water Board
authorized DWR and the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR)to use each other's Delta points of
diversion, also referred to as joint points of diversion (JPOD)operations, subject to certain conditions. One
of the conditions of approval was the requirement that the Projects meet all other provisions of their permits
bmperform JPQC}operations. OVVIR and USBRanticipate that salinity aithe southern Delta salinity
compliance locations will exceed the current objectives this summer(and possibly fall)..
Order WR 2008-0029-EXEC allows JPOD operations to occur based on the following condition:
All other provisions cfthe above permits are met, provided, however, if the southern Delta water
quality objectives are exceeded, and the State Water Board's Executive Director has found that(i)nu
additional reasonable control measures exist that the SWP or CVP could take this summer or fall in
order to meet the objectives, and (ii)the use of JPOD will not unreasonably affect salinity in the
southern Delta.
Petitions for temporary change(such as the subject petition)which add either the Clifton Court Forebay or
the Jones Pumping Plant as points of rediversion to water rights other than those of the SVVPorCVP are
not considered JPODoperations. The impacts to other legal users of water and to fish,wildlife, and other
inmireornbeneficial uses associated with adding either the Clifton Court Forebayorthe Jones Pumping Plant
as points of rediversion to water rights other than those of the SWP or CVP, however,are similar to the
impacts cfJpO\Doperations. |nthe absence ofother equivalent measures,the orders approving these
petitions include conditions similar to those required of JPOD operations. For some period of8SVVO's
proposed temporary change, it is likely that the southern Delta salinity objectives will be exceeded.
Accordingly I,this Order includes the following condition to allow this transfer to occur if it will not
unreasonably affect salinity in the southern Delta during the period of the proposed temporary change.
'
Rediversion of water at the Clifton Court Forebay pursuant to this Order is also subject to compliance
by the operators with the objectives currently required of the Department of Water Resources (DWR)
and the United States Bureau of Reclamation (USBR)set forth in Tables 1, 2, and 3 on pages 181 to
187ofState Water Board Revised Decision 1641 (D-1 641), or any future State Water Board order or
decision implementing Bay-Delta water quality objectives at those plants, including compliance with
the various plans required under D-1 641 as prerequisites for the use of the Joint Points of Diversion
bvOVVRand UGBR.With the following exception:
|fthe southern Delta water quality objectives are exceeded, and the State Water Board's Executive
Director has found that(i)no additional reasonable control measures exist that the SWP or CVIP could
take during the period of this temporary change in order to meet the objectives, and (ii)the addition of
the Clifton Court Forebay as a point of rediversion to License I 1118 pursuant to this Order will not
unreasonably affect salinity in the southern Delta, then the rediversion of water at the Clifton Court
Forobmyunder License 11118may occur.
3'0 PUBLIC NOTICE AND COMMENT ON THE PROPOSED TRANSFER
Public notice of the petition for temporary change(dated May 23, 2008)was provided via regular mail to
interested parties and bypublication inthe Sacramento Bee onMay 24. 2OU8.
4.0 REQUIRED FINDINGS OF FACT
Availability of Water for Transfer
Before approving atemporary change due toatransfer orexchange ofwater pursuant bnChapter 1O.5of
Part 2 of Division 2 of the Water Code, the State Water Board must find that the transfer would only involve
the amount of water that would have been consumptively used or stored by the permittee or licensee in the
absence of the proposed temporary change or conserved pursuant to Section 1011. (VVat. Code, S1725
and § 1728.) The water proposed for transfer was stored by SSWD under provisions of License 11118.
-3-
|nlight ofthe above, | find inaccordance with Water Code section 172O(o)that the water proposed for
transfer pursuant to this order would have been stored by the permittee in the absence of the proposed
temporary change.
NmInjury bmOther Legal Users mfWater
Before approving mtemporary change due boa transfer orexchange ofwater pursuant toChapter 1O.5of
Part 2ofDivision 2ofthe Water Code,the State Water Board must find that the transfer would not injure
any legal user of the water during any potential hydrologic condition that the Board determines is likely to
occur during the proposed change,through significant changes in water quantity, water quality,timing of
diversion or use,consumptive use of the water, or reduction in return flows. (VVsd. Code, § 1727.
])
nubd. (b\(1S8VVDmnUuipotemthat aearesult ofthe proposed transfer upbm 1O.0O0additional afof
groundwater
' ' ' 'punnpingcou|d000ur. Appendix Aofthe Transfer Agreement identifies uthird-party action
plan which includes aseries of steps that will be taken to ensure that the possible increase in groundwater
pumping as a result of the 2008 pilot water transfer does not cause significant, unmitigated impacts to other
parties. This Order includes terms and conditions to ensure that no legal users of water are injuredbvthe
proposed temporary change due to potential water level or water quality impacts associated with the
addition ofthe Clifton Court Foneboyeoopoint ofredivenoiontoLicense 1118. Aaconditioned herein,the
transfer can occur if the southern Delta water quality objectives are exceeded, and there are noadditional
reasonable control measures the SWIP or CVP could take this summer and fall to meet them and if the
rediveruionofwater atClifton Court Fomeboyresulting from this order will not unreasonably affect salinity in
the southern Og|to.
In light of the above, I find in accordance with Water Code section 1727(b)(1)that the proposed transfer will
not injure any legal user ofthe water. | o|oofind that the transfer nfsurface water that iareplaced with
groundwater pursuant to this order meets the requirement of Water Code section 1745.1 0(b). That section
requires that the groundwater use has been approved by the water supplier from whose service area
the water is to be transferred and the water supplier has determined that the transfer will not create
or contribute to conditions of long-term overdraft in the affected groundwater basin.
No Unreasonable Effect mnFish,Wildlife, mrOther UnstraanmBeneficial Uses
VVober Code section 172Qexempts temporary changes involving the transfer ofwater from the requirements
ofthe California Environmental Quality Act/CEOA\. (Public Resources Code section 21O0O.etamq.)
However, the State Water Board may approve a temporary change due to a transfer of water only if it
determines that the proposed temporary change would not unreasonably affect fish,wildlife, or other
inntreannbeneficial uses. ANoLCode, § 1727. mubd. (b)(2).\
`
DFG was contacted regarding the proposed temporary change and did not identify any concerns regarding
fish,wildlife, and other instrearn beneficial uses and did not file comments on the proposed temporary
change. Rediversion of water at the Clifton Court Forebay pursuant to this Order is subject to compliance
by the operators with the objectives currently required of DWR and USBR set forth in Tables 1, 2, and 3 on
pages 181hn187ofI]-1G41. including compliance with the various plans required under D-1841oo
prerequisites for the use ofthe JointPoints ofDiversion byDVVR|and USBR(with the exception for southern
Delta salinity noted ebove). Rwdiversinnofwater atthe Clifton Court Fonebaypursuant bmthis Order isalso
subject to compliance by the operators with the Delta Smelt Biological Opinion and other applicable
biological opinions,and any court orders applicable hmthese operations.
In light of the above, I find in accordance with Water Code section 1727(b)(2)that the proposed transfer will
have no unreasonable effect on fish,wildlife, or other instrearn beneficial uses.
5-0 STATE WATER RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY
On September 18, 2007, the State Water Board adopted Resolution 2007-0057, granting the authority to act
