In <br /> <br />addition, those firm and non-firm water transfer programs that were identified, <br /> <br />investigated, and selected during the first phase to allow California's use of <br /> <br />Colorado River water to move closer to its "basic" annual apportionment of 4.4 MAF <br /> <br />will be implemented. <br /> <br />Firm Transfers <br /> <br />o Desalination of Drainaae Water -- Recognizing the serious water quality <br /> <br />concerns about the use of Colorado River water in the urban area, the <br /> <br />second phase of the Plan may include a component addressing the <br /> <br />desalination and reuse of drainage water entering the Salton Sea, if <br /> <br />determined to be feasible. <br /> <br />c:I...\44pIrv17.wpd <br /> <br />18 <br />
