"The time to wrap up water conservation is now. Proactive conservation measures are a prudent step for all of our agencies to prepare for the possibility of ongoing extreme dry conditions. Only through these coordinated and collective actions at the federal, State, and local level will we be able to successfully manage our water supply through 2022 and beyond. The challenges are substantial but [we are] confident that there is no group better to rise to the occasion than this group of California water managers." - Karla A. Nemeth, Director of Department of Water Resources
