Overflow water: beneficial use.
Summary
This measure would declare that overflow water from reservoirs that are a part of the federal Central Valley Project should be redirected to put the water to the most beneficial use and released in the central valley and that the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta pumping facilities should be put into operation to divert water from being wastefully sent out to the Pacific Ocean and instead sent to areas where the water is critically needed.
