What are the long-term water supply challenges facing the North San Pablo Bay region, particularly Sonoma, Marin and Napa counties?
Surface and groundwater sources are limited, and some local groundwater basins are already over-pumped, which has deteriorated water levels and quality. In addition, a clean, reliable water supply is needed to continue restoration of tidal wetlands in San Pablo Bay. The effects of global warming may further stress local water supplies. Development of recycled water would augment local water supplies and thus help the region to overcome the challenges.
