According to statements filed w/DWR, the historic use is nearly 1,380 AF/ year (nearly 4 ac.ft. per net farm acre) an ample supply. The lands to the W. of Glide Lake receive surface water from RD 999. Both of these surface water sources are protected under the North Delta Water Agency settlement agreement.
