NOTICE OF UNAVAILABILITY OF WATER AND IMMEDIATE CURTAILMENT FOR THOSE
DIVERTING WATER UNDER A POST-1914 WATER RIGHT IN THE SACRAMENTO RIVER
WATERSHED AND DELTA

 

The State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) is issuing
curtailment notices to all post-1914 water rights within the Sacramento
River watershed and Delta until further notice.   The State Water Board has
been monitoring diversion records and the flow conditions in the Sacramento
River watershed and Delta.  Due to limited precipitation and snowpack, the
current flows are insufficient to satisfy diversion demands under senior
rights.

 

The post-1914 water rights curtailed include all those permits, licenses,
registrations and certificates issued after 1914 within the larger
Sacramento River watershed and Delta.    The notice can be viewed at:
http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/waterrights/water_issues/programs/drought/wate
r_availability.shtml

 

If you are subject to another curtailment, (Term 91 Notice, Deer or Antelope
Creek Orders), the most restrictive curtailment applies.  Should a
curtailment be lifted in the future under a notice or order, the other
curtailment condition remains in effect until notified otherwise.  If you
have any questions, please contact our Curtailment Hotline at (916)
341-5342.

 

Compliance Certification Required:

Curtailed water rights are required to document receipt of this notice by
completing an online Curtailment Certification Form (Form) within seven
days.  The Form confirms cessation of your diversion under the specific
water right identified and, if applicable, identifies the alternate water
supply to be used in lieu of the curtailed water right.  You are required to
complete the Form for each of your water rights identified through this
curtailment at:
<http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/waterrights/water_issues/programs/ewrims/curt
ailment/2015curt_form.php>
http://www.waterboards.ca.gov/waterrights/water_issues/programs/ewrims/curta
ilment/2015curt_form.php

 

The State Water Board will continue to monitor diversion demands, weather
forecasts and stream gages. Please monitor your email and State Water Board
Drought Year Water Actions website for further updates on when diversions
may be authorized.  If an email list notice is issued on the weekend, the
website will not be updated until the following Monday due to service
limitations.
