To the Editor:
Mendocino County continues to make progress on the development of its Drought Resilience Plan (DRP) to enhance our community’s preparedness for future water shortages. This effort, initiated in response to the severe 2020-2022 drought and in compliance with Senate Bill 552, is being led by the Mendocino County Water Agency in collaboration with the University of California Cooperative Extension (UCCE) and EKI Environment and Water, Inc. The DRP will assess the potential risks of future droughts and outline both short-term and long-term strategies to manage water scarcity. Public participation remains crucial to the success of this initiative.
In February, we held a meeting where we presented and discussed all sections of the DRP. As we move forward, the March meeting will focus on reviewing the draft plan and outlining the process for reviewing and submitting comments. This will be a key opportunity for water stakeholders, domestic well owners, and State Small Water System operators to provide input before the plan is finalized:
County Drought Task Force Meeting Under Government Standing Committee (GGC)
This meeting will provide updates on the DRP development process and discuss the process for reviewing and submitting comments. We encourage all water stakeholders, domestic well owners, and State Small Water System operators to attend and provide their feedback and share information to be considered in the development of the DRP.
-Date: Wednesday, March 26, 2025
-Time: 9 a.m. to noon
-Location: GGC Meeting, Mendocino County Administrative Center, Board of Supervisors Chambers
-Agenda and remote participation link will be available on mendocino.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx
Your participation is encouraged as we work together to ensure a resilient future for Mendocino County.
