Department of Water Resources oversees management of the State Water Project’s supply and delivery system
Reliability Report prepared as a result of the state’s obligation set forth in the 2003 Monterey Settlement
Reliability Report provides: Overall water delivery capacity of the SWP facilities Allocation of SWP water Discussion of the range of hydrologic conditions Historic SWP water delivery (prior 10 years)

Note: Maximum Annual SWP Exports from the Delta is 4,133 MAF
Approximately 79% chance of annual Delta exports of

approximately 76% under future conditions

The report illustrates “The need for local agencies to develop a resilient and robust water supply, and a distribution and management system to maximize the efficient use of our variable supply” and “the urgent need to improve the method of conveying water past the Delta in a more sustainable manner that meets the dual goals of increasing water delivery reliability and improving conditions for endangered and threatened fish species.”

Future SWP deliveries average about 61% of the contracted amount (including Article 21 and carryover supplies)
MWD’s 2010 UWMP and the Table A 2030 volumes are consistent with the 2011 Report results for 2031.
DWR will continue to perform assessments of SWP supplies and operations Next SWP Delivery Report will be released in 2014 Water Agencies to prepare 2015 Urban Water Management Plan
Updates
Staff will continue to monitor and report to the Board actions that could affect imported water
