7 Innovative and Sustainable Water Source for Southern California Conservation & Recovery Phase Expand existing well-field and manifold system on Cadiz Inc. property to create “picket fence” to conserve water. Capture 2.5 million acre-feet over 50-years and deliver via a 43-mile buried pipeline to Colorado River Aqueduct within Arizona & California Railroad right-of-way provide RR improvements. NO adverse environmental impacts from operations Creates reliable supply for 100,000 families: Water Providers in 5 So. Cal. Counties would receive water. Cadiz Water Project
