Blog: State board completes three-day workshop on proposed Bay-Delta voluntary agreements
The State Water Resources Control Board’s (State Board) three-day workshop to evaluate the proposed Voluntary Agreements, held from April 24 through 26, was the latest step in the State Board’s process to update the Water Quality Control Plan for the San Francisco Bay/Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary (Bay-Delta Plan). Specifically, the agreements discussed relate to the Sacramento, Feather, American, Yuba, Tuolumne and Mokelumne Rivers, Putah Creek, and the Delta. … A major issue raised throughout the workshop was whether it is appropriate to rely on both flow and non-flow measures, rather than focusing strictly on flow requirements.
