On Tuesday, the Santa Clarita Valley Water Agency (SCV Water) officially released the draft Urban Water Management Plan update for review and commentary by the public.
It was announced that the public in Santa Clarita is invited to review and comment on the draft Urban Water Management Plan update, which was released by SCV Water on Tuesday.
“This plan is a critical component in the long-term planning efforts we’re undertaking to ensure that we can serve our customers now and in the future. We’ve created a plan that accounts for current customer needs, projected growth and identifies how we can be more efficient with our water resources,” said SCV Water’s General Manager Matt Stone.
The State of California’s Urban Water Management Planning Act, along with other related laws, led to the drafting of the Management Plan that has now been opened to the public for commentary.
The Management Plan is said to be designed to contribute to SCV Water’s ability to address issues contributing to the area’s reliable water access.
Some of the primary components of the plan reportedly include forecasts of the amount of water needed to serve customers, a consideration of recycled water, plans for water conservation, and an examination of the potential effects of water shortages, climate changes, and droughts.
Previously, SCV Water held three public workshops on the Urban Water Management Plan, which are available to review here.
The public commentary period has been scheduled by SCV Water for April 27 to May 26, and comments are reportedly available for submission through the plan’s website.
For those wishing to submit comments through hard copy or email, SCV Water has encouraged commenters to send their statements to Sarah Fleury, SCV Water Project Manager, at [email protected] or to 26521 Summit Circle, Santa Clarita, CA 91350.
SCV Water is described as a full-service water agency that provides services to over 74,000 residential customers and businesses in the Santa Clarita Valley.

In summary, there is more than enough water for new homes. Existing homes need to severely cut back and have their rates dramatically increased.
Exactly . Those in charge of the decision making do not care about what’s best for the people of SCV. All they care about is power and money. Expansion to our valley should have come to a halt years ago but they continue to mow down mountains and increase our concrete/asphalt foot print. Fire season began yesterday as we all saw and will continue the rest of the year. Isn’t it interesting how we have a fire start out of no where and then a massive housing project appears at that same location years later? It makes moving earth a lot easier when there’s no foliage in the way.
The Liberals call this progress (Liberal Progressiveness), the decent majority call it rape of Modern (not perfect) American Ideals!
