Central Valley Project Improvement Act, Revised Interim Guidelines for Implementation of the Water Transfer Provisions of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act

To meet the requirements of the Central Valley Project Improvement Act (CVPIA) of 1992, the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) developed and published the Interim Guidelines for Implementation of Water Transfers Under Title XXXIV of Public Law 102- 575 (Interim Guidelines) on February 25, 1993. On September 30, 1999, certain provisions of section 3405(a) of the CVPIA sunseted. Consequently, Reclamation has drafted revised Interim Guidelines to reflect these Congressionally mandated changes. The Interim Guidelines were prepared pursuant to the provisions of section 3405(a) specifying the conditions and requirements for the transfer of Central Valley Project (Project) water. Section 3405(a)(3) states ``Transfers executed after September 30, 1999, shall only be governed by the provisions of subparagraphs 3405(a)(1)(A)-(C), (E), (G), (H), (I), (L), and (M) of this title, and by State law.'' The interim guidelines have been changed to reflect this CVPIA provision. Reclamation has made a commitment to publish a notice of its revised Interim Guidelines in the Federal Register and to allow the public 30 days to comment. DATES: All public comments must be received by January 10, 2000.
