I think it will be. The extension, however, must not be confused with the enlargement of the project this year by 230,000 acre feet annually.

That action was taken in order to fulfill the original purpose of the project. One of the contractors, Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, needed more water to carry her through 1990, because the United States Supreme Court in Arizona v. California reduced the amount of water she had ex generated and new projects for the holidays. Guest speaker will be Steven Becker, son of Mr. and Mrs.

Hut the point is that California has in hand the work to take care of her water needs for the next generation. This is a remarkable fact. No other state has ever acted with such forethought and with such comprehensive effect.

The State Water Project would not have been possible except for the fact that for 100 years California has been measuring streams, surveying dam-sites, and laying careful plans. When Governor Edmund G. Brown put the request before the Legislature in 19G0, the Burns Porter bill to provide the $2 billion funds to finance and construction was heard by committees which were thoroughly familiar with the Cali inson Room will follaw. satisfied, and the completed project will be proof that the vision of leaders provided flexibility adequate to meet the auuiuuu atucuuic ui uic oidie Water Project was still flexible enough to allow for an enlargement of the annual yield without endangering either the plan or the schedule.

WARNE Stat Director of Water Rtjourcej (This Is the second in a series of articles about water development in California, written by the director of the state Department of Water Resources, a conservation official for state and federal governments since 1935.) SACRAMENTO Enough water for everyone in California until 1990 is assured by the State Water Project. Final adjustments in contracting with 30 water service agencies raised the minimum annual project yield by 5 per cent to 4,230,000 acre feet and made it certain that tiie great project would meet its goal filling the needs not satisfied by local and federal water projects. Beyond 1990 much more will be required. Other and bigger projects must be planned and built in tiie next 25 years. California is not static now and it will still be growing dynamically after 1990.

The state Water Project is not the "final" project. There will be no end to water development in California.

These 30 water service contractors have almost two-thirds of the population of the State within their district borders. They are all public agencies, some very big and some quite small. In common, they have urgent, developing water needs between now and 1990 and confidence in the state and its engineers who are working on the project. Construction has been started expeditiously and is vigorously pushed, so the confidence seems to have a sound base.
