Mojave Region Functionally Equivalent Storm Water Resources Plan

The State of California now recognizes the importance of incorporating storm water as a potential resource in a region’s water portfolio. Historically, storm water was thought of as a public risk (e.g., flooding) and a source of water quality impairment. Traditional approaches for storm water focused on diverting storm water into the storm drain system which ultimately and efficiently moved said water away from populated areas; the State is now supporting watershed-based approaches where storm water and dry weather runoff can yield benefits beyond flood control, such as water supply, water quality improvement, and habitat enhancement. To incentivize use of storm water, the State of California has linked storm water resources planning to state funding. Storm water and dry weather runoff capture projects seeking funding from any California bond act approved by voters after January 1, 2014 must be included in a Storm Water Resources Plan, which meets California Water Code. Regional water planning has a long history in the Mojave region. In 2005, agencies in the Mojave service area, that share a common concern for the area’s water resources, met and agreed to develop an Integrated Regional Water Management Plan (IRWMP). The Region’s first IRWMP identified, defined, and established strategies to capitalize on all water management opportunities that were present at that time or would become possible in the Mojave Region in the future. Since that time the IRWMP has acted as a forum for regular collaboration. The IRWMP is a living document and the regional objectives as well as strategies to improvement water management are regularly updated. The IRWMP was last updated in 2014. This Mojave Region Storm Water Resource Plan (SWRP) is an extension of the IRWMP process and is meant to bring an integrated and watershed-based approach to managing and creating benefits from storm water. This SWRP is regional and multi-agency. This SWRP includes all components required by the Water Code and will be submitted to the IRWM group. This SWRP will help entities in the Mojave Region identify, prioritize, and implement storm water projects.

Monitoring Strategies for Chemicals of Emerging Concern (CECs) in California’s Aquatic Ecosystems

California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) | April 26th, 2012

Although thousands of substances can now be detected in the environment, a small percentage of known chemicals – approximately 200 -- are currently regulated and/or routinely monitored in California receiving waters. The much larger group of chemicals that remain largely unregulated and/or unmonitored in the aquatic environment, known as chemicals of emerging concern (CECs), may originate from a wide range of point and non-point sources. Upon discharge to receiving waters, CECs that are readily soluble in water will remain in the dissolved (aqueous) phase and provide a route of exposure to aquatic life. A smaller subset of CECs that are hydrophobic will associate with particles, where they may remain suspended in the water column or accumulate in sediments and ultimately in tissues of aquatic and terrestrial biota. The larger concern is that exposure to aqueous, sediment and tissue CECs may affect wildlife and humans. In response, the California Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) in conjunction with the David and Lucile Packard Foundation and a group of stakeholder advisors tasked a group of leading scientists to address the issues associated with CECs in the State’s aquatic systems that receive discharge of treated municipal wastewater effluent and stormwater. The group was charged to identify potential sources and evaluate the fate and effects of CECs, and ultimately to provide guidance for developing monitoring programs that assess those chemicals with the highest potential to cause effects in the State’s receiving waters. Seven experts in chemistry, biochemistry, toxicology, chemical and risk assessment, engineering and coastal and marine environmental health science were convened as the CEC Ecosystems Panel (“Panel”) in October 2009. The Panel held six in?person meetings to formulate their approach and recommendations, while soliciting input from stakeholders and the public. This report provides the results from the Panel’s deliberations, including four products intended to assist the State in developing a monitoring process for CECs based on sound, up-to-date scientific principles.
