This morning at the Casa Munros Hotel, David Stoldt, General Manager for the Monterey Peninsula Water Management District (MPWMD), along with Stephanie Locke, the District's Water Demand Manager, presented its revised plan for Water Conservation and Standby Rationing to Commercial Businesses. This is in response to the Cease-and-Desist Order on California American Water Company (CalAm).
The revised plan reduces the previous plan from 7 to 4 Stages. It replaces landscape budget requirements with a "call to action" in Stage 2, which is voluntary conservation. It also includes "conservation rates" for water in Stage 3 for commercial entities (which kick in at Stage 4 for households). It also focuses on eliminating non-essential uses before implementing water rationing.
There will be a presentation this afternoon at the Monterey Public Library for residential water users.
