In plaintiffs' request for an administrative mandamus challenging an environmental impact report certified by the defendant pursuant to CEQA concerning a transfer of water from a water agency and a water storage district to the defendant's, judgment of the trial court is reversed, vacated and remanded as, although the trial court correctly rejected plaintiffs' principal contentions, it erred in issuing the writ because the EIR contains no material defects.
