SCCWRP to contribute to report on balancing demands for water resources in California

SCCWRP has been invited to contribute to a statewide report that will examine ways to balance competing demands on California’s limited water resources.

The Public Policy Institute of California began working with SCCWRP and other partners in January to explain how the California Environmental Flows Framework – a management framework for setting environmental flow patterns in streams statewide to protect ecological health – can be used to help inform State efforts to balance water demands.

In the report, titled “Making the Most of Water for the Environment,” researchers will explain how the framework can support the State’s Recycled Water Policy, Instream Flows Policy and Water Action Plan.

The report is expected to be completed by early 2021.
