Body
SUMMARY:
The Water Supply Master Plan (WSMP) is Santa Clara Valley Water District’s (Valley Water) guiding document for long-term water supply investments to ensure water supply reliability for Santa Clara County. The WSMP 2050, adopted in 2025, is Valley Water’s current plan. The WSMP 2050 recommends an adaptive management strategy that supports investment decisions amid uncertainties in future conditions and project development. The adaptive framework includes a roadmap and annual reporting.
Annual reporting through the Monitoring and Assessment Program (MAP) is a critical component of WSMP’s adaptive management strategy for managing uncertainty. As the first annual report for the WSMP 2050, a standard MAP report format was developed to track key elements of the WSMP, including progress on projects, conditions of indicators, and whether any adjustments are recommended. The standardized report will help the Board and community know what to expect each year; incorporate the WSMP into the decision-making process for individual projects by reporting project status and progress within the WSMP framework; and provide continuity and consistency over time. This memorandum summarizes the key elements of the MAP report.
