Excess stormwater runoff and other pollution will be minimized throughout the region, especially in water supply areas. The region would make more use of lower-impact site designs, green roofs, and innovative stormwater management to help maintain natural hydrology. The emphasis on redevelopment would create more opportunities to retrofit developed sites for better stormwater
management.

Objectives:

• Total demand for public water systems will decline by 12%.
• Per capita residential water consumption will decline by 20%.
• Average water demand for all new residential development will be no more than 50 gallons per person per day.
• In 100% of public water systems, peak month water demand will be no more than 125% of average annual demand.
• 100% of public water suppliers have unaccounted for water less than 10%.
• The volume of interbasin transfers (via water or wastewater) out of medium- or high-stress basins will steadily decline.
