County considers Feather River water contract terms
The Kern County Water Agency outlines surplus Feather River water options and a 300000 acre foot cap per year. If voters reject the contract on November 12, districts would negotiate with the state separately. An alternative supply from Kern County water expected by 1980 faces a 160 acre federal limit and costs from 7 to 10 dollars per acre foot for farms and about 14 dollars for municipal use.
