Unified Water Plan - Overview
2024-01-17 13:00 - 14:00
Register Here!

The California Water Institute, Research and Education Division and the Water Blueprint for the San Joaquin Valley Education Fund (Blueprint) will work together to develop a unified water plan for the San Joaquin Valley.

In consideration of the range of ongoing, at times disconnected, work to identify water management solutions for areas of the Valley, the Unified Water Plan Report (Report) will leverage available information and assets and describe an approach for the development of comprehensive regional solutions.

The focus of the Report is not to review or evaluate individual projects or efforts, but rather to coordinate and integrate between San Joaquin Valley subregions in the development of a unified plan for the San Joaquin Valley, one that enables and is consistent with local projects/efforts.
