PWD Board OK’s water transfer agreement
The Palmdale Water District Board of Directors unanimously approved an agreement for the District to provide water to a group of water agencies in western Kern and Kings counties, during wet years when the District has an excess supply. The District will be paid for the water transferred, with those funds then earmarked for water reliability projects to better ensure the District’s own supplies. The transfer is of water allocated through the State Water Project and delivered by the California Aqueduct.
