	Los Vaqueros Reservoir Expansion Project

The Draft Environmental Impact Statement/Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIS/EIR) on the Los Vaqueros Reservoir Expansion Project was released on February 20, 2009. Public hearings were held between March 23 and April 2 and the public comment period on the Draft EIS/EIR closed on April 21, 2009.

The project objectives are to develop water supplies for environmental water management, increase water supply reliability for water providers within the San Francisco Bay Area, and improve the quality of water deliveries to municipal and industrial customers in the San Francisco Bay Area.

The Draft EIS/EIR and other information on the project are available on the project web site. View the project web site here. Visitors to the web site can also sign up for the project mailing list to be notified when additional information is available on the project. Sign up for the project mailing list here.
