The Department of Water Resources and US Bureau of Reclamation are responsible
for implementing CALFED’s South Delta Improvements Program. Actions
contemplated as part of the SDIP include providing for more reliable long-term
export capability by the state and federal water projects, protection
of local diversions, and reducing impacts on San Joaquin River salmon.
Specifically, the CALFED actions in the South Delta Improvements Program
include consideration of placement of a fish barrier at the head of Old
River, up to three hydraulic barriers in south Delta channels, dredging
and extension of some agricultural diversions, and increasing diversion
capability of Clifton Court Forebay to 8,500 cubic feet per second.
