A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
In 1988 a statewide conservation work group set out to validate the assumption of the California State Water Resources Control Board that conservation could reduce urban water use in the state by one million acre‐feet annually. Conflicting opinions regarding the possibility of reaching such a goal led to a unique consortium or urban water agencies, environmental groups, state agencies, and other interested parties. Working together, they developed the Memorandum of Understanding Regarding Urban Water Conservation in California. The document lists 16 best management practices that approach conservation in a uniform and measurable fashion. A schedule incorporated into the memo assuredly timely implementation, and the California Urban Conservation Council was formed to monitor implementation.
