Program Assistance Resources
In order to assist local governments in the development of local programs to meet the requirements for the development of Local and Regional Water Supply Plans and to facilitate acquisition of existing resource conditions and existing use and water management information, the Department of Environmental Quality is developing and providing access to a number of information data sets. Links to additional information sources and databases will be added as they are developed or as they become available.
