Climate Smart Water Planning

Climate Smart Water Planning

The RDN has launched a Climate Smart Action Report to keep you informed about the actions we are taking to protect our drinking water from the impacts of climate change.

While population growth, land development, and seasonal water scarcity all place pressures on our water resources, climate change is presenting new and urgent challenges to our drinking water supplies.

The Climate Smart Action Report will keep you up to date on the best practices we are following to:

  • Understand how much source water is available now
  • Forecast future demand for drinking water
  • Plan and manage for the impacts of climate change including drought and emergencies
  • Communicate our Climate Smart actions to water users 

Continuing to reduce water use and staying informed helps us all work together to protect our drinking water from the impacts of climate change.
