body of water owned by a governmental agency, that is used to supply
water for human consumption may by resolution request the

fishing in said body of water and other recreational uses in the
surrounding land area. The board of supervisors thereupon may deposit
with the governmental agency owning the body of water the amount of

are unsuitable for public recreational use. The coordinated plan may
also include an estimate of the cost of the capital improvements
necessary or convenient for public fishing and recreational uses, an
estimate of the annual cost of maintenance and operation of the plan,

financed.

its water supply permit, that would allow the opening of the body of
water to public fishing and the surrounding land area for other
recreational use pursuant to the coordinated plan.

fishing in the body of water and other recreational uses in the
surrounding area in compliance with the amended permit.

other recreational uses in a secondary reservoir from which water is
supplied for domestic use without purification treatment after
