County Seeks Second Deferment on State Water Import
The County Water Agency plans to ask the state for a second two year deferment of coastal aqueduct construction to Jan 1 1979. Engineer-manager Charles Lawrance says Santa Barbara County and San Luis Obispo County will back the request. The plan envisions Feather River water imported to the region with distribution through Santa Barbara County. The agency aims to align the deferment with ongoing water resource planning and possible future bond measures for county water projects.
