6 Impacts of Regional Water Plan and Consistency with Protection of
Water Resources, Agricultural Resources, and Natural Resources
The previous section presented a set of recommended water management strategies for Region C
wholesale water providers and water user groups. This section discusses the impacts of the
recommended water management strategies on key parameters of water quality, the impacts of moving
water from rural and agricultural areas, and impacts to third parties. It also discusses how the regional
water plan is consistent with the long-term protection of the state's water, agricultural, and natural
resources.
6.1 Impacts of Recommended Water Management Strategies on Key Water Quality
Parameters
For a given water resource, the impact of water management strategies on key water quality parameters
is evaluated by comparing current water quality conditions with anticipated water quality conditions
when water management strategies are in place. Many of the recommended water management
strategies involve diverting water from one water body and discharging this water to another water body.
For these strategies, the difference in the quality of the two waters, the quantity of water discharged, and
the effectiveness of any mitigation are used to project the impact on the receiving water. Selection of the
key water quality parameters used for this comparison is based on the importance of these parameters
to the use of the water resource.
The recommended water management strategies can be grouped into the following strategy types:
" Existing surface water sources
" New surface water sources
" Existing groundwater sources
" New groundwater sources
" Direct reuse
" Indirect reuse
" Conservation
