Re: Commitments Agreement follow upCommitments Agreement • February 22nd, 2023
Contract Type FiledFebruary 22nd, 2023Last month this Board and the community was afforded an extensive presentation and discussion regarding the “Commitments Agreement” and an assessment of its potential effects on the Salton Sea and Region (viewable at SaltonSea.com). I applaud this Board for the attention it gave to this important issue, and the important questions which were raised with the presenters – some of which were answered, others remain open. In particular, impacts from conservation measures and how those impacts would be mitigated were the two areas of most significant concern as expressed by this Board and the public. Staff has evaluated and continues to evaluate these concerns, and will make recommendations to this Board for action as appropriate. Below are key issues raised which we believe are as yet unresolved.
