What:  Councilmember David Alvarez and Councilmember Ed Harris will discuss the City’s steps to combat drought conditions with voluntary drought response measures.  This item will be heard at today’s Committee on the Environment.

Who: Councilmember David Alvarez, Councilmember Ed Harris
Ken Weinberg, Director of Water Resources, San Diego County Water Authority
Halla Razak, City of San Diego’s Public Utilities Director

When:  Wednesday, April 23, 2014, 1:30PM

Where:  News Conference Room, City Administration Building, 13th Floor  202 C Street, San Diego

Why: The City of San Diego’s “Drought Response Level 1” is typically invoked when the City Council finds a reasonable probability, due to drought, that there will be a supply shortage.  This condition adds additional voluntary water conservation measures that are added to the City’s existing permanent water restrictions.
