Title: 2008 Managing an Uncertain Future: Climate Change Adaptation Strategies for California’s Water

URL: http://www.energy.ca.gov/2008publications/DWR-1000-2008-031/DWR-1000-2008-031.PDF

Description: This October 2008 report recommends a series of adaptation strategies for state and local water managers to improve their capacity to handle change. Many of the strategies will also help adapt our water resources to accommodate non-climate demands including a growing population, ecosystem restoration and greater flood protection.

Title: Using Future Climate Projections to Support Water Resources Decision Making In California

URL: http://www.energy.ca.gov/2009publications/CEC-500-2009-052/CEC-500-2009-052-D.PDF

Description: This paper presents several advances in using future climate projection information in water resources planning, such as an improved understanding of how well selected climate models represent historical climate conditions and refined methodologies for representing streamflows, outdoor urban and agricultural water demands, and sea level rise in planning tools. Twelve climate projections were used to assess the future reliability of California’s main water supply projects. Mid‐century and end‐of‐the‐century impacts were estimated for Sacramento‐San Joaquin Delta exports, reservoir carryover storage, groundwater pumping, power supply, and the Delta salinity standard known as X2. The vulnerability of the system to operational interruption was also examined. A sensitivity analysis was also conducted to examine the effects of air temperature on runoff in the Upper Feather River basin, the main inflow source to Lake Oroville. The range of impacts presented in this paper indicates a need to explore adaptation measures to improve the reliability of future water supplies in California.

Title: Central Valley Flood Protection Plan 2017 Update

URL: https://water.ca.gov/-/media/DWR-Website/Web-Pages/Programs/Flood-Management/Flood-Planning-and-Studies/Central-Valley-Flood-Protection-Plan/Files/2017-CVFPP-Update-FINAL_a_y19.pdf

Description: The Central Valley Flood Protection Plan (CVFPP) describes a programmatic vision for improving flood risk management throughout California’s Central Valley. Prepared by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) in accordance with the Central Valley Flood Protection Act of 2008 (Act) and adopted by the Central Valley Flood Protection Board (CVFPB) in June 2012, the CVFPP guides the State’s participation in managing flood risk in areas protected by the State Plan of Flood Control (SPFC).

Title: Central Valley Flood Protection Plan 2017 Update

URL: https://water.ca.gov/-/media/DWR-Website/Web-Pages/Programs/Flood-Management/Flood-Planning-and-Studies/Central-Valley-Flood-Protection-Plan/Files/2017-CVFPP-Update-FINAL_a_y19.pdf

Description: Since its adoption by the Central Valley Flood Protection Board in June 2012, the CVFPP has guided California's flood risk management investments to improve emergency preparedness and response capabilities, increase critical flood protection in vulnerable Central Valley communities, and address maintenance deficiencies in the flood system. This first 5-year update to the CVFPP, as required by the Central Valley Flood Protection Act of 2008, incorporates the latest information about systemwide and regional flood management needs, advancements in the best available science, refined objectives for improving ecosystem functions along our floodways, a robust investment strategy, and a series of policy issues and focused recommendations needed for continued implementation of the CVFPP.
