<br />002.4'2,0 <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br /> <br />Statewide Development, and Determination of Sequence and Timing of <br />Water Projects -- is conducted on a statewide basis. The objectives <br />are: <br /> <br />(1) "to integrate the water demands from the various <br />segments of California into a cohesive coordinated <br />statewide time-sequenced demands; <br /> <br />(2) "to integrate the resources available in the various <br />segments of California and elsewhere into a coordi- <br />nated availability of re sou rc es; and <br /> <br />(3) "to coordinate and integrate development, on a state- <br />wide basis, of the phys ical means for satisfying the <br />demands, within the proper economic and chronolog ic <br />framework,in the form of a staged plan for water <br />development. " <br /> <br />This core program, bes ides monitoring the various project investigations <br />and developing ecoll,omic demand information, maintains the staged water <br />demand information and a staged plan for water development for the <br />entire State. This is important since few, if any, potential projects <br />remain which will not affect other areas of the State -- in some cases <br />hundreds of miles away. <br /> <br />The staged plan is a schedule of water-related projects by type, location, <br />size, and time of completion. This includes water development and dis- <br />tribution' flood control, quality control, and water-related features of <br />recreation and fish and wildlife projects. (Details of the plan will be <br />published at intervals, starting in 1965. It will identify physical works <br />needed, on the basis of current information, at specific future dates -- <br />with a projectionp'e:rlod of 60 years' or mure. ) <br /> <br />After a project has been properly placed in the staged plan for water <br />development, the last step in the Planning division of the chart, it moves <br />into the Implementation divis ion. Here the project is in a larger arena <br />and undergoes negotiations and studies of polley, funding, and possible <br />constructing and operating arrangements. Some projects will be recom- <br />mended for construction by Federal and local agencies. When appropri- <br />ate, studies will result in request for authorization of a project for State <br />construction, If authorized as a State project, it moves into definite <br />project studies, then to Des ign and Construction. If it is to be a non- <br />State project, the State helps the constructing agency coordinate planning <br />details: to move the project toward authorization and then Design and <br />Construction.
