SUBdEOT 1986-87 WATER PRICE AND SAND SALE SCHEDULE
Attached is the proposed 1986-87 Agricultural Water Enterprise
"WATER PRICE and SAND SALE SCHEDULE", Consisting of two major components:
l) WATER SALES
The water price schedule reflects the current abundant water
supply conditions now prevailing throughout the San Joaquin Valley.
The proposed schedule represents price categories competitive with
State (California Aqueduct), Federal (Friant-Kern Canal) and local
groundwater pumping costs. With the present water supply on the
Kern'River forecasted to be 133% of normal, the recommended water
prices would encourage maximum use of surface water during the
irrigation season while substantially reducing groundwater pumping
in 1986.
2) SAND SALES
Due to the high-flow water.years experienced in 1978, 1980 and
1983, the river channel has upgraded' in numerous areas to a point
where remedial action is necessary to avoid potential flooding should
a major rainstorm occur below Isabella reservoir. With the recent
completion and adoption of the "Kern River Channel Maintenance
Program", the City is now able to implement the program. To promote
the removal of these upgraded sandbar areas it is recommended that
the price for sand be established at $0.50 per cubic yard until river
channel Conditi'ons are improved. These channellimprovements woulid
allow the safe passage of the lO0-year intermediate regional flood
(15,000 c.f.s.).
As outlined on the "1986-87 WATER PRICE and SAND SALE SCHEDULE",
all categories for pricing would remain in effect until water conditions
warranted changes in the schedules.
