Bay Delta Conservation Plan Public Comment Period Extended

The public comment period on the draft Bay Delta Conservation Plan (BDCP) and associated draft Environmental Impact Report/Environmental Impact Statement (EIR/EIS) has been extended, for a second time, until July 29, 2014. 

RCRC and other stakeholders have submitted letters requesting an extension on submitting comments due to the length and complexity of the BDCP, as well as the fact that the draft Implementing Agreement had not yet been released. The extension on the public comment period was announced in conjunction with the release of the draft Implementing Agreement, which is woven into virtually every aspect of the BDCP, and is a critical element of the document.

The draft BDCP and draft EIR/EIS can be accessed here. RCRC’s letter requesting a comment period extension may be accessed here.
