Water Budget Handbook - Public Webinar
On February 7, the California Department of Water Resources released a draft Handbook for Water Budget Development: With or Without Models, a single-volume, technical reference that systematically presents existing information on various methods and data sources for developing water budgets. The Water Budget Handbook can help in the development of water budgets for any geographic area and time period, and uses modeling and non-modeling approaches. Public comment is now open on the draft document and closes on April 7, 2020.
