Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Reform Act of 2009.

The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Reform Act of 2009 establishes the Delta Stewardship Council, which is required to develop, adopt, and commence implementation of a comprehensive management plan for the Delta by January 1, 2012. The act requires a state or local public agency that proposes to undertake a covered action to prepare a written certification, as prescribed, as to whether the covered action is consistent with the Delta Plan. The act defines "covered action" to mean a plan, program, or project that meets specified conditions. This bill would exclude from the definition of "covered action" specified leases approved by the Port of Stockton or the Port of West Sacramento and routine dredging activities, as defined, necessary for maintenance of facilities operated by the Port of Stockton or the Port of West Sacramento.
