NOTICE: Tudor Mutual Water Company files petition to transfer 1,200 AF to State Water Project Contractor’s service areas

From the State Water Board:

On May 7, 2021, Tudor Mutual Water Company (Tudoror petitioner), filed with the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) a Petition for Temporary Change under Water Code section 1725, et seq. The petition requests the transfer of up to 1,200 acrefeet (af) of water for use within various State Water Project (SWP) Contractor’s service areas.

In order to make water available for transfer, the petitioner has proposed to reduce its consumptive use (CU) of surface water by a like amount. This reduction will be achieved by increasing groundwater pumping to make surface water available for transfer (groundwater substitution, or GW).
