A non-notable organisation with no independent secondary sources available, and very little cited and sourced information on this page at all (primary or secondary). If any information is able to be rescued, could be merged into Central Valley Project instead. Cardiffbear88 (talk) 17:36, 15 February 2020 (UTC)

- Delete - run of the mill riparian rights organization. We are not a web-host to list every real property organization or community association. A one-line selective merger would be the most a reasonable admin could do. Bearian (talk) 17:10, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Wait a sec, the Central Valley is huge area of water rights issues, and this CVPWA looks huge within it, as an association of 70 districts. Is this the place, or nearly, depicted in Erin Brockovich (film)? The sleepy-seeming but corrupt local hugely important water rights shop. Is this literally the real-life domain of fictional Billy Bob Thornton / Goliath (TV series)'s season 3? I don't think this is necessarily run of the mill at all. --Doncram (talk) 21:52, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
- Search also on "CVPWA". Maybe it is not in current news. But searching either way in Google books gives links to CVPWA having lobbyists, and testifying before the U.S. Congress including in 1991 hearings about Central Valley Project Improvement Act, and to commenting within enviromental impact issue stuff about the American River watershed, and seems like a bunch more. I can't get all the way to see the contents within the books/reports. I am not sure about this organization. --Doncram (talk) 22:13, 18 February 2020 (UTC)
- Comment Searched on "CVPWA" and there are lots of hits, but mostly quotes of the director stating the org's position on various issues. Not really in-depth coverage of the org. This story in US News is the best I found. [1], [2], [3] are some other mentions. MB 02:04, 20 February 2020 (UTC)
- Delete. There's no useful sources in the article (yes, I'm counting the External links), and none presented here in the AfD. No sources, no article. -- RoySmith (talk) 15:51, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
- Redirect to Central Valley Project. No sources indicate notability under GNG or NORG but definitely relevant to the Project. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 21:13, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
