§ 11963 Water Transfer Recall Terms

This law says that when people make deals to sell saved or recycled water, they can include rules for getting that water back later. They have to give at least 5 years' notice before taking the water back, unless everyone agrees to a shorter time.

Key Takeaways

•Deals for selling saved or recycled water can include rules for getting the water back.
•If they want the water back, they must warn the buyer at least 5 years ahead.
•They can agree to a shorter warning time if both sides say it's okay.

Example

A city sells recycled water to a farm for 20 years.

If the city wants the water back, they have to tell the farm at least 5 years before they take it. They can agree to less time if both sides are okay with it.

Any contract entered into pursuant to this chapter for the transfer or sale of conserved or recycled water may provide for the recall of water and may include terms for that recall. Any recall provisions shall include a notice period of not less than five years unless otherwise agreed by the parties. (Amended by Stats. 1995, Ch. 28, Sec. 16. Effective January 1, 1996.)
