1. California Water Plan 2028 Is Taking Shape — Draft Outline Released for Input DWR presented a draft table of contents for the Water Plan 2028, which will include chapters defining statewide and regional water supply problems, a statewide strategy repository of planned projects, policy recommendations, and an implementation roadmap. The plan will compare cumulative project capacities against the 9 million acre-foot interim target set by SB 72. Importantly, DWR stressed it is not endorsing individual local projects through this process — the focus is on broad state investment priorities, policy actions, and identifying project-type categories where funding and regulatory support are most needed. Pencils-down on the administrative draft is roughly 10–12 months away.
