Bay Area & North Coast Water Use & Planning Policies

Bay Area & North Coast Water Use & Planning Policies

Abstract

The research question, "Do city policies correlate with a water providers amount of water used?" To research consistently recharge aquifers during wet years and responsibly use water during drought requires a holistic knowledge of how our cities use water. Where does it go? Using SWRCB's map of water systems and measurement's of GPCD, the North Coast and Bay Area was the regional focus. This research doubles as a proposal to establish ongoing student research into water management and California policy planning, here at SSU.
