Delta Stewardship Council Meeting

On November 17 at 9:00 AM, the Council will conduct a public hearing to receive comments on proposed amendments to implement the Delta Levees Investment Strategy (DLIS) and may direct staff regarding the next steps for the proposed rulemaking.

Additionally, the Council will hear from staff on the Delta Science Program’s Ecosystem Restoration Progress Review, which summarizes progress toward the restoration targets set by Chapter 4 of the Delta Plan, discusses the policy motivations for restoration projects, and reviews the best available management-relevant science.

The DLIS combines risk analysis, economics, engineering, and decision-making techniques to identify funding priorities and assemble a comprehensive investment strategy for the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta levees. It was developed in collaboration with State agencies, local reclamation districts, Delta landowners and businesses, and other stakeholders and is based on the best available data and lessons learned from other State and local programs and planning efforts.

The Council’s monthly meetings are the definitive place for the public to learn about and comment on the implementation of the Delta Plan. This month's meeting proceedings will be conducted in person and remotely. See the meeting notice to learn how members of the public may join the meeting in person, remotely, or observe via Cal-Span.

The Delta Plan creates a common vision for taking on current and predicted challenges and includes regulations, non-regulatory recommendations, and performance measures to further water supply reliability, ecosystem resiliency, and the unique values of the Delta as a place.
