Book Description
California’s water is at the center of an intense economic and political struggle. A balance between supply and demand must be reached, but it is far from certain that all Californians will get as much water as they want at a price they feel is right. Competition for California Water presents essential information on key issues, including: Costs: What would be the yields and what would be the costs, in dollars as well as less tangible values, of developing new sources of water? Cost-sharing: How much of the cost of water development and distribution should be borne by the general public, and how much by water users and other beneficiaries? Environmental protection: To what extent should environmental values be protected? Conservation: To what extent can the need for new water development be offset by conservation and more efficient use of water? Institutional reform: Can changes in the laws and institutions of California produce a more efficient system of water supply and management? Agriculture: How much increase in cost and/or loss of water can California agriculture bear and still remain competitive? Thirty-one experts on all aspects of this topic project alternative futures for California’s water supply. Written in nontechnical language, Competition for California Water is an invaluable source of information for Californians concerned with the future of their state.

Book Description
Revisions were made to CALVIN, a hydro-economic optimization model of California's intertied water delivery system, to better reflect year 2050 operating capacities and improve model accuracy. Revisions include changing how penalty equations are calculated, updating urban water rates, splitting urban demand areas into indoor and outdoor water use components statewide, and updating urban and agricultural demands and the conveyance network in southern California. This revision significantly updates cost and scarcity estimates, but does not significantly change the physical operation of the system. This updated model is used to examine the economic effects on southern California of reducing or ending the State Water Project deliveries to southern California in 2050. SWP contactors without access to Colorado River water are the most affected, with the MWDSC member agencies having increased scarcity and agriculture and urban areas near the Colorado River being unaffected.
