                        JANUARY 25, 2010

   An act to amend Sections 29725 and 32330 of the Public Resources
Code, relating to the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1677, Caballero.  Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.
   Existing law establishes in the Natural Resources Agency the
Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Conservancy, to act as a primary state
agency to implement ecosystem restoration in the Sacramento-San
Joaquin Delta (Delta) and to support efforts that advance
environmental protection and the economic well-being of Delta
residents. Existing law specifies the composition of the board of the
conservancy, including 10 liaison advisers who serve in an advisory,
nonvoting capacity, including one representative of the United
States National Marine Fisheries Service, which is within the United
States Department of Commerce.
   This bill would delete the Secretary of the Interior as the
appointing entity and would, instead, designate the Secretary of
Commerce as the appointing entity.
    The Johnston-Baker-Andal-Boatwright Delta Protection Act of 1992
(Delta Protection Act) creates the Delta Protection Commission and
requires the commission to prepare and adopt a comprehensive
long-term resource management plan for specified lands within the
Delta. The Delta Protection Act also requires the commission to
adopt, not later than July 1, 2011, an economic sustainability plan
containing specified elements and requires the commission to review
and, as determined to be necessary, amend the plan every 5 years. The
Delta Protection Act defines the term "local government" for its
purposes to include specified counties and cities.
   This bill would correct a misspelling in that definition.
