  • Chapter 10 Water Resources
    Chapter 10 Water Resources Water Resources 2040 General Plan 10 WATER RESOURCES INTRODUCTION This chapter summarizes the various water resources and water resource issues in Ventura County. It is organized into the following sections: ▪ Major Findings (Section 10.1) ▪ Legal and Regulatory Framework for Water Management (Section 10.2) ▪ Integrated Regional Water Management (0) ▪ Existing Conditions (by watershed) (Section 10.4) ▪ Trends and Future Conditions (Section 10.5) ▪ Key Terms (Section 10.6) ▪ References (Section 10.7) The organization of this chapter differs from others in the Background Report because of the nature of its subject matter. First, because the overall legal and regulatory framework affecting water resources is key to understanding how such resources are managed, the framework is the first substantive discussion in this chapter. Second, because water resources are so integrally tied to geography, the existing conditions discussions are organized according to the county’s watersheds, with each aspect of the resource addressed as it relates uniquely to each watershed. MAJOR FINDINGS Adequate water supply is a current and ongoing concern in Ventura County due to climate change and drought, the related declines in river flows and reservoir levels, historic overdraft of several local groundwater basins, curtailment of groundwater supplies in southern Ventura County, new groundwater well prohibitions, and reduced deliveries of imported water. More than 850,000 residents and 156 square miles (95,802 acres) of irrigated farmland in Ventura County experienced direct impacts from the drought that began in 2012. ▪ The water supply challenges are great and could impact residents, businesses, agriculture, and the environmental resources of Ventura County without concerted action.
