Bill overview
This bill updates the California Water Plan to ensure a reliable and sustainable water supply for the state, considering future needs and climate change impacts. It requires the Department of Water Resources to expand the advisory committee to include diverse stakeholders like tribes, labor, and environmental justice groups. The plan must now include a 2050 interim supply target, factoring in urban, agricultural, tribal, and environmental needs, and must detail the costs, benefits, and impacts of proposed water projects. The bill also mandates public workshops and regular reporting to the legislature on plan updates.
