Proposed Making Conservation a California Way of Life Regulation Comment Letter Mar 27, 2024 Comment Letters Agency: State Water Resources Control Board Subject: Comment Letter – Proposed Making Conservation a California Way of Life Regulation Letter excerpt: The Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) and the undersigned organizations appreciate the opportunity to provide comments to the State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) on the proposed Making Conservation a California Way of Life Regulation (Regulation). ACWA and its coalition partners submitted comprehensive comments to the State Water Board on the August 2023 version of the proposed Regulation. Core to ACWA’s comments was the request that the State Water Board work with ACWA, water suppliers, and other interested parties to address the policy and technical concerns in the revised draft. We immensely appreciate the significant time that State Water Board staff and Board Members, environmental and environment justice groups, and water suppliers dedicated to this process in November and December of 2023, which resulted in 21 meetings of five working groups. We believe that collaborative processes focused around understanding diverse perspectives and discussing different solutions lead to improved and effective policy. Download Comment Letter
