Eastern San Joaquin Groundwater Basin Groundwater Management Plan Northeastern San Joaquin County Section 8 Groundwater Banking Authority 107 Integrated Conjunctive Use Program City of Lodi will pay WID $200 per af for water delivered by the existing WID canal system. WID will use the proceeds to replace the aging WID Dam. The new WID Dam will allow Lodi Lake to remain full year round thus enabling WID to serve recharge areas during the late fall and winter months. The dam will also feature state of the art fish ladders making it easier for spawning salmon to reach the Fish Hatchery at Camanche Reservoir. NSJWCD has attempted to acquire a firm supply from the Mokelumne River through the SWRCB, however, in D-858 of 1956, the State Engineer gave priority to EBMUD for Mokelumne River water and cited the Folsom South Canal (FSC) as the preferred surface water supply for NSJWCD. The FSC was planned as part of the Auburn-Folsom South Unit of the CVP for the conveyance of American River Water stored behind Folsom Dam and the proposed Auburn Dam. Auburn Dam and the remaining reaches of the FSC were never completed. The USBR has no plans or intentions to extend the FSC into San Joaquin County to its planned terminus 20 miles southeast of Stockton. Also in D-858, the State Engineer granted NSJWCD a permit to divert Mokelumne River water from December 1st to July 1st which is surplus to EBMUD’s needs until the FSC is completed as envisioned by the CVP or until EBMUD uses its full entitlements. EBMUD has agreed to store up to 20,000 af per year pursuant for NSJWCD subject to inflow and other requirements. The interim nature of the water supply and the extensive use of private groundwater wells have reduced the Table 8-2 Water Available from the Mokelumne River (af) Year Total Year Total 1922 194,274 1961 0 1923 7,909 1962 0 1924 0 1963 0 1925 0 1964 0 1926 0 1965 316,779 1927 0 1966 6,968 1928 0 1967 289,774 1929 0 1968 0 1930 0 1969 463,970 1931 0 1970 209,374 1932 0 1971 93,591 1933 0 1972 0 1934 0 1973 0 1935 0 1974 272,910 1936 0 13- year Period 1975 97,983 1937 19,096 1976 0 1938 519,170 1977 0 1939 0 1978 0 1940 0 1979 0 1941 119,569 1980 156,188 1942 274,525 1981 0 1943 286,933 1982 656,659 1944 0 1983 1,146,269 1945 0 1984 380,946 1946 33,755 1985 4,503 1947 0 1986 378,552 1948 0 1987 0 1949 0 1988 0 1950 0 1989 0 1951 453,705 1990 0 1952 603,929 1991 0 1953 18,421 1992 0 1954 0 1993 0 1955 0 1994 0 8-year Period 1956 341,038 1995 500,787 1957 0 1958 322,485 Minimum: 0 1959 0 Maximum: 1,146,269 1960 0 Average: 43,173 Number of diversion years in 74-yr period: 26 (35%) Source: MORE WATER Project Phase I – Reconnaissance Study Summary Report, 2004
