LAKE COUNTY — The public can provide comments through Monday on a plan looking at how to cooperatively improve water supply, water quality, flood risk management and the ecosystem in a five-county region in Northern California.
The Westside Sacramento Integrated Regional Water Management Plan focuses on an area including a large portion of Lake County, Yolo County and parts of Solano, Napa and Colusa counties.
Government agencies and members of the public have been working together for more than 14 months to develop voluntary guidelines on how water and related resources could be managed effectively for the next 20 years within the region.
The collaborative planning work is funded by the participating agencies and a grant from the California Department of Water Resources.
The plan can be viewed online at http://westsideirwm.com/draftplansections/. Citizens can review the document and provide input via email, info@westsideirwm.com. The comment deadline is Monday.
