Operational Criteria and Plan
Federal Pumping Plant, John Ridilla/USFWS
On December 15, 2008, the Sacramento FWO issued a biological opinion (BO) on the Long-Term Operational Criteria and Plan (OCAP) for coordination of the Central Valley Project and State Water Project. The Service determined that the continued operation of these two water projects, as described in the plan, was likely to jeopardize the continued existence of the delta smelt and adversely modify its critical habitat. See Settlement Agreement below.
For easier downloading, see the sidebar for the opinion divided into three sections.
