Joint Point definition

Joint Point is a term that is used in recent SWRCB Delta proceedings and decisions (e.g., WR 95-6; WR 98-9; D-1641) to refer to the ability of the SWP and CVP to utilize each other’s point of diversion in the south Delta, i.e., their points of diversion may be used “jointly”. It is used here, however, in a slightly different way, to refer to the use (mainly) of the SWP point of diversion alone; and, specifically, to the wheeling of EWA as well as CVP water. Use of excess capacity for the EWA, CVP, and Level 4 refuge water will take precedence over all other non-project pumping, except, as noted above, for wheeling water to respond to facility outages and wheeling to supply CVP contractors for whom the SWP has traditionally wheeled CVP water, namely, San ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ National Cemetery, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Co. and the users of the Cross Valley Canal.
