The document summarizes a draft environmental impact report for the Delta Plan prepared by the Delta Stewardship Council. It notes that the preferred alternative in the Delta Plan relies on flow criteria and demand reduction rather than constructing new infrastructure. It also finds deficiencies in the draft EIR, including that it does not adequately address incorporating the Bay Delta Conservation Plan or alternatives if it fails. The Water Authority will provide comments on the draft EIR by the February 2nd deadline.
