From the Delta Stewardship Council:
The Delta Stewardship Council has completed the Administrative Procedure Act process to amend the California Code of Regulations, title 23, sections 5001 and 5012 to implement the Council’s Delta Levees Investment Strategy (DLIS).
The amendment assigns a very-high, high, or other priority to islands or tracts within the legal boundaries of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta and the Suisun Marsh and directs the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) to fund levee improvement projects by order of priority. Additionally, it defines new terms related to the amendment and requires the DWR to submit an annual report to the Council describing Delta levee investments relative to the priorities established in the amendment.
The amended regulation will take effect on January 1, 2024.
