Part 1 of this program will focus on the Montecito Water District’s emergency response while simultaneously handling 300+ leaks and breaks in the MWD infrastructure. Additionally, they will discuss their lessons learned in responding to these emergencies as well coordinating with FEMA. Part 2 of the program will focus on the region’s efforts to adapt to a changing water supply with updates to the local urban water management plan focusing on the 2025 goal of being 15% dependent upon rain water resources and the other 85% being water recycling,  groundwater management, desalination, and water banking.
