Projects

Long-range planning is key to the success of the MWA. Planning for future water supplies well in advance of water needs is critical for the sustainability  of high-growth areas such as the High Desert. Our planning documents guide management actions to sustain the region's water resources.


Key Planning Documents

2020 Urban Water Management Plan Final
The UWMP evaluates trends in population, water use, and water supplies within the MWA service area for a 45-year planning period through the year 2065.  The basic question answered by the Plan is "does MWA have adequate water supplies to meet forecast demands through the planning period?"

In February 2009, the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) adopted the Recycled Water Policy to encourage and provide guidance for the use of recycled water in California. The Recycled Water Policy also requires local water and wastewater entities, together with local salt and nutrient contributing stakeholders, to develop a Salt and Nutrient Management Plan (SNMP) in a cooperative and collaborative manner for each groundwater basin in California, to manage salts, nutrients, and other significant chemical compounds on a basin-wide basis.
