Disaster Preparedness and Flood Prevention Bond Act of 2006.

The Disaster Preparedness and Flood Prevention Bond Act of 2006 authorizes bonds in the amount of $4,090,000,000 for the purposes of financing disaster preparedness and flood prevention projects and makes $3,000,000,000 available, upon appropriation to the Department of Water Resources, for the evaluation, repair, rehabilitation, reconstruction, or replacement of levees, weirs, bypasses, and facilities of the State Plan of Flood Control, for improving or adding facilities to the State Plan of Flood Control to increase levels of flood protection in urban areas, and to reduce the risk of levee failure in the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. The Budget Act of 2015 appropriates $300,000,000 to the Department of Water Resources for these and other specified flood protection-related activities. This bill would make available, of the moneys appropriated to the department by the Budget Act of 2015, $110,000,000 for the upgrade of the levee system of Reclamation District No. 17 to provide urban level of flood protection. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for Reclamation District No. 17. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
