Existing law imposes various water use reduction requirements that apply to urban retail water suppliers, including a requirement that the state achieve a 20% reduction in urban per capita water use by December 31, 2020. For the purpose of meeting this goal, an urban retail water supplier is required to develop urban water use targets and an interim water use target by July 1, 2011, and to take other related action. Existing law requires an urban retail water supplier that supplies water to a United States Department of Defense military installation, for the purpose of preparing an implementation plan to comply with these provisions, to consider specified requirements. On and after July 1, 2016, an urban retail water supplier is not eligible for a water grant or loan awarded or administered by the state unless the supplier complies with these provisions.
