. The Governor may designate, from time to time, and may
revoke previous designations of, the area within a 20-mile airline
radius of the site of principal construction of any water
construction project undertaken by the State as an impact area when:
(a) He is requested to do so by the county board of supervisors or
the city council of any county or city within the impact area; and
(b) He finds that:
(1) Such construction will cause a sudden influx of people into
the impact area.
(2) The construction will require more than 12 months to complete.
(3) The construction will result in serious fiscal problems to the
affected local governments.
(4) Peak construction employment on the project within the impact
area is estimated by the Department of Water Resources to total more
than 500 employees.
(5) The increase in population in the impact area, found by
multiplying such peak construction employment as estimated by the
Department of Water Resources by 4.5, equals at least 20 percent of
the estimated population in the area on July 1st of the year prior to
the date that construction was started. At any time that the
increase in population falls below 20 percent of the estimated
population of the area, the designation shall terminate as of the
following June 30th. All population data are to be determined by the
Department of Finance.
