Water Shortage Contingency Plan
The Water Shortage Contingency Plan (WSCP) improves water conservation and water shortage planning, and enables SCV Water to prioritize mitigation actions to implement should water shortage conditions occur, such as drought, earthquakes, fires, or other catastrophic events.
It is a requirement of the California Urban Water Management Planning Act and other applicable laws and directs the suppliers’ long-term resource planning to ensure that adequate water supplies are available for today and tomorrow.
The WSCP is part of the Urban Water Management Plan. Learn more
