Southern Sierra IRWM

From the Southern Sierra RWMG website:

​The Southern Sierra Regional Water Management Group (SSRWMG), a group of diverse stakeholder interests, formed in 2008 to take a collaborative, integrated approach to managing the region’s water resources with regard to sustaining the splendor of its natural resources and the quality and quantity of water downstream. The SSRWMG is the governing body responsible for implementing the Southern Sierra Integrated Regional Water Management Plan (SSIRWMP).  

The SSIRWMP is the first integrated planning effort in the Southern Sierra region. The SSIRWMP is a voluntary, non-regulatory planning document that identifies broadly-supported water management goals and objectives that provide a framework within which to address issues such as water supply, water quality, habitat and environment, recreation, and land use.
