Funding and Costs
The pre-feasibility studies were funded by the four partner agencies with costs shared equally (split four ways). The feasibility study is being funded by a grant administered by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) through Proposition 50 — the Water Security, Clean Drinking Water, Coastal and Beach Protection Act passed by voters in 2002. The feasibility study costs $500,000, and the DWR grant represents 50% of the study estimate. In June 2006, the agencies were awarded an additional grant for close to $1 million for a pilot study. The complete pilot study is estimated to cost about $2 million.
