Book excerpt: Excerpt from Feasibility of Serving the South Bay Contractors From the State Water Project: April 1968 This report presents information concerning the need for supplemental water supplies in portions of Alameda and Santa Clara counties, and includes data relating to the financial responsibilities of the three water service agencies now contracting for State Water Project water to serve the needs of those areas. The State of California has the necessary water supply and the authority to contract with the Alameda County Water District (Acwd); the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, Zone 7 (Zone 7);and, the Santa Clara County Flood Control and Water District (Sccfc Wd). Their contracts provide for delivery of a msLximiom annual entitlement of 188,000 acre-feet of water from the South Bay Aqueduct of the State Water Project. The Aqueduct has been sized to have an additional 22,000 acre-feet of transportation capacity. This additional water supply will be provided by future supplemental sources not now included in the State Water Project. This report sets forth the terms and conditions of the water service contracts between the State and each agency, and presents information relative to the legality of the agencies to contract with the State. The three agencies have the authority and the need to contract with the State of California for the maximum annual entitlement of each agency. Contracts call for annual delivery of a maximum of 42,000 acre-feet of water to the Alameda County Water District; U 6,000 acre-feet to the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, Zone 7; and, 100,000 acre-feet to the Santa Clara County Flood Control and Water District. The contractual cost to each district can continue to be met with a sound financial program based on the ability of the users to pay for water, and ad valorem assessments for benefits accruing from importation of water from the State Water Project. Much of the information included in this report is based on material gathered during the late 1950 sand early 1960's, but not formalized at that time. In some parts of the report the information has been modified to reflect changes which have occurred, in order to present a more accurate picture of conditions. However, judgment was used in making the modifications, and it is not intended that this publication be taken as a report of conditions which currently exist.
