75030. This chapter is intended to provide the funding needed to
address short term flood control needs such as levee inspection and
evaluation, floodplain mapping and improving the effectiveness of
emergency response, and providing funding for critical immediate
flood control needs throughout the state. It is also intended to
provide a framework to support long term strategies that will require
the establishment of more effective levee maintenance programs,
better floodplain management and more balanced allocation of
liability and responsibility between the federal, state and local
governments.
75031. The sum of thirty million dollars ($30,000,000) shall be
available to the department for the purposes of floodplain mapping,
assisting local land-use planning, and to avoid or reduce future
flood risks and damages. Eligible projects include, but are not
limited to:
(a) Mapping floodplains.
(b) Mapping rural areas with potential for urbanization.
(c) Mapping and identification of flood risk in high density urban
areas.
(d) Mapping flood hazard areas.
(e) Updating outdated floodplain maps.
(f) Mapping of riverine floodplains, alluvial fans, and coastal
flood hazard areas.
(g) Collecting topographic and hydrographic survey data.
75032. The sum of two hundred seventy five million dollars
($275,000,000) shall be available to the department for the following
flood control projects:
(a) The inspection and evaluation of the integrity and capability
of existing flood control project facilities and the development of
an economically viable flood control rehabilitation plan.
(b) Improvement, construction, modification, and relocation of
flood control levees, weirs, or bypasses including repair of critical
bank and levee erosion.
(c) Projects to improve the department's emergency response
capability.
(d) Environmental mitigation and infrastructure relocation costs
related to projects under this section.
(e) To the extent feasible, the department shall implement a
multi-objective management approach for floodplains that would
include, but not be limited to, increased flood protection, ecosystem
restoration, and farmland protection.
75032.4. Notwithstanding Section 13340 of the Government Code, the
funds allocated in Sections 75031 and 75032 are continuously
appropriated to the department for the purposes of those sections.
75032.5. The sum of forty million dollars ($40,000,000) shall be

that are consistent with Water Code Section 79037.
75033. The sum of two hundred seventy five million dollars
($275,000,000) shall be available to the department for flood control
projects in the Delta designed to increase the department's ability
to respond to levee breaches and to reduce the potential for levee
failures. The funds provided by this section shall be available for
the following purposes:
(a) Projects to improve emergency response preparedness.
(b) Local assistance under the delta levee maintenance subventions
program under Part 9 (commencing with Section 12980) of Division 6
of the Water Code.
(c) Special flood protection projects under Chapter 2 (commencing
with Section 12310) of Part 4.8 of Division 6 of the Water Code,
including projects for the acquisition, preservation, protection and
restoration of Delta lands for the purpose of flood control and to
meet multiple objectives such as drinking water quality ecosystem
restoration and water supply reliability.
(d) All projects shall be subject to the provisions of Water Code
Section 79050.
75034. The sum of one hundred eighty million dollars ($180,000,000)
shall be available to the department for the purposes of funding the
state's share of the nonfederal costs of flood control and flood
prevention projects for which assurances required by the federal
government have been provided by a local agency and which have been
authorized under the State Water Resources Law of 1945 (Chapter 1
(commencing with Section 12570) and Chapter 2 (commencing with
Section 12639) of Part 6 of Division 6 of the Water Code), the Flood
Control Law of 1946 (Chapter 3 (commencing with Section 12800) of
