Subject to completion of necessary CEQA review as provided in Section 4.07, the SFPUC may enter into an agreement with the cities of Daly City and San Bruno and the California Water Service Company, South San Francisco Service Area ("Participating Pumpers") governing the operation of the South Westside Basin Conjunctive Use Program (“Program”), a WSIP Project.

Program annual operations and maintenance expenses and water supplies are expected to be allocated as follows:
