DWR’s California Water Plan
The California Water Plan provides a collaborative planning framework for elected officials, agencies, tribes, water and resource managers, businesses, academia, stakeholders, and the public to develop finding and recommendations and make informed decision for California’s water future.  The Plan, updated every 5 years, presents the status of trends of California’s water-dependent natural resources; water supplies; and agricultural, urban, and environmental water demands for a range of plausible future scenarios.
