Assembly Member Aguiar-Curry's legislation would remove the January 2026 sunset date on Reclamation District No. 108's authority to generate and sell hydroelectric power, while adding new oversight requirements for the district's operations.
The bill maintains the district's existing capabilities to construct and operate hydroelectric power plants, transmission lines, and related facilities. Under these provisions, the district can finance construction through time warrants backed by power generation revenues, lease facilities to utilities, and sell electricity to public utilities and agencies. All proceeds must go toward retiring construction-related time warrants and supporting the district's core functions.
A new reporting mandate requires Reclamation District No. 108 to submit documentation to state legislative committees between January 2035 and January 2036. This report must detail whether the district obtained permission from the Colusa Local Agency Formation Commission for its hydroelectric activities, the status of any power generation projects, current or planned use of its authority, and financial statements related to electricity sales. The legislation preserves similar hydroelectric authorities for Reclamation District No. 1004 when acting jointly with Colusa County.
