Assembly Bill
No. 3044
Introduced by Assembly Member Alanis

February 16, 2024 |
An act to amend Section 35420 10609.33 of the Water Code, relating to water.
LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 3044, as amended, Alanis.
Water: distribution for irrigation. Urban retail water suppliers: urban water use objectives: report.
Existing law requires the Department of Water Resources, on or before January 1, 2028, and in coordination with the State Water Resources Control Board, to submit a report to the Legislature on the progress of urban retail water suppliers towards achieving their urban water use objective.
This bill would instead require the report to be submitted to the Legislature on or before January 1, 2029.
Existing law, the California Water District Law, requires all water distributed for irrigation purposes, except as otherwise provided, to be apportioned ratably to each holder of title to land upon the basis of the ratio that the last assessment against that land for district purposes bears to the whole sum assessed in the district for district purposes.
This bill would make nonsubstantive changes to that law.
