Water allocation increased for CA’s Central Valley 

The Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) has increased water supply allocations for California Central Valley Project south-of-Delta agricultural contractors from 40% to 50%.

BOR said north-of-Delta contractors remain at 100%, and all other allocations are unchanged from the March 27 update. Acting California-Great Basin Regional Director Adam Nickels said the updated allocation reflects the agency’s continued support for California farmers and the communities that rely on water.
