From the State Water Resources Control Board:

Please be advised that the deadline for submitting protests against the subject petition has been extended until May 13, 2024. The State Water Resources Control Board Division of Water Rights issued the initial Notice of Petition Requesting Changes in Water Rights of the Department of Water Resources for the Delta Conveyance Project on February 29, 2024.

On March 26, 2024, the Board received a joint request to vacate or extend the April 29, 2024 deadline to file protests against the change petition. The request was followed by support and/or similar requests for extension of the deadline from other interested parties. In response to these requests, the Board determined that good cause exists to extend the protest deadline by 14 days.
