AUBURN, CA – In a letter addressed to the Chair of the State Water Resources Control Board, the Placer County Water Agency (PCWA) requested that emergency drought regulations, which have been in effect since last May, be rescinded. The content and purpose of the letter were discussed at PCWA’s Board of Directors meeting on March 17.

“At the last State Water Board meeting regarding emergency drought regulations, the Board directed staff to continually monitor data and determine if conditions warranted a rescission or adjustment of the regulation,” said General Manager Einar Maisch. “This letter provides Water Board staff with recent and relevant hydrological conditions, and demonstrates that drought conditions no longer exist in the watersheds that service the region.”
