Smart Water Planning for Development and Growth
Changes in land use can present significant challenges to preserving water quality, meeting future water supply needs, and maintaining reasonable water resource goals. Are there smart approaches to maintaining, restoring, or enhancing natural hydrologic and water-quality conditions that may be affected by urban development and growth? Panelists will discuss water supply planning, California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) implications, and Low Impact Development (LID) strategies that incorporate various techniques to generate less runoff from developed land.
