Resumen

This Part of Division 6 concerns maintenance of privately owned levees in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The Department of Water Resources shall develop and submit to the Central Valley Flood Protection Board, for adoption by the Board, criteria for the maintenance and improvement of nonproject levees (“a local flood control levee in the delta that is not a project facility under the State Water Resources Law of 1945"). The criteria shall vary as required to meet specific conditions and shall be multipurpose in nature, and include environmental considerations, when feasible. The Legislature declares that funds necessary to maintain and improve the delta’s levees to protect the delta’s physical characteristics should be used to fund levee work that would promote agricultural and habitat uses in the delta consistent with the purpose of preserving the delta’s invaluable resources.
