AI Contract Overview
Patterson Irrigation District and Santa Clara Valley Water District have entered into a five-year Water Transfer Agreement to facilitate the movement of up to 30,000 acre-feet of water from Stanislaus County to Santa Clara County, utilizing PID’s pre-1914 appropriative water rights and Central Valley Project supply under U.S. Bureau of Reclamation Contract 14-06-200-3598A-LTR1. The transfer is contingent on water availability and regulatory compliance, with all environmental obligations satisfied through a Negative Declaration issued under the California Environmental Quality Act, which was approved on July 19, 2025, and filed with Santa Clara County on July 23, 2025. The project involves no monetary exchange details, pricing, or financial terms, making the contract value unquantifiable from available documentation; administrative fees of $3,025.75 were paid solely for environmental filing purposes and do not reflect the value of the water transfer. The agreement is administered as a state-level water rights transaction, not a federal procurement, and therefore lacks standard Federal Acquisition Regulation clauses, payment systems, contracting officer designations, or solicitation forms. Key oversight is managed between Patterson Irrigation District and Santa Clara Valley Water District, with Lisa Holm of the latter serving as the primary point of contact. Performance occurs within California, specifically transferring water from the San Joaquin River basin to the Santa Clara Valley service area, with no FOB terms, inspection protocols, or technical specifications defined beyond CEQA compliance. No federal entity identifiers, socioeconomic certifications, or contractor obligations are applicable, and the transaction is governed entirely by state environmental statutes and contractual water rights under the Bureau of Reclamation agreement. The entire process is documented through CEQA filings, including a Notice of Determination, with no federal procurement infrastructure or contractual administration mechanisms involved.
