 Water 

Dear Water Contractor: 

The Bureau of Reclamation is in the preliminary stages of preparing the Results of Operations 

for Fiscal Year 2002, for individual CVP Irrigation and Municipal and Industrial (M&I) 

contractors. To prepare these accountings as accurately as possible, it is critical that Reclamation 

has reliable water delivery and revenue data. This data serves as the basis for the annual 

operation and maintenance expense allocation to each contractor and for determining their net 

surplus or deficit for the year. 

In this regard, Reclamation requests your input to ensure the accuracy of our recorded data. We

have enclosed a copy of your Water Deliveries and Revenues Report (WDR) showing water 

deliveries and revenues for the period October 1, 2001, through September 30, 2002. Please note 

that throughout the year this information has been provided to your organization monthly by 

Reclamation's respective area office in the form of a Water Delivery and Charges report or 

variation thereof. We are providing the information in a summarized WDR for the period ending 

September 30, 2002, to allow you one additional opportunity to review the data and identify any 

potential errors or omissions. 

Please indicate on the enclosed WDR that the information is correct or not correct and explain 

any discrepancies. Due to the approaching holidays, the standard review period has been 

extended to 45 days from the date of this letter. Please return the WDR to us no later than 

January 16, 2003, by fax at (916) 978-5392 or in the envelope provided. Any discrepancies 

reported to Reclamation will be reviewed on an individual basis and resolved and discussed with 

you, as appropriate. PLEASE NOTE, that any response(s) after the 45-day period, regardless of 

validity, will not be considered for adjustment until the following year’s accounting. 

If you have any questions, please contact the applicable Ratesetting Service staff: 

Irrigation: Ms. Linda Bringle at 916-978-5391 or;
