1 Delaware River Basin Commission Background and Mission of WMAC WMAC Meeting June 16, 2015 Photo by David B. Soete
2 A river is more than an amenity, it is a treasure US Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Fast Facts: Delaware River Main stem river is 330 miles long Delaware River forms an interstate boundary over its entire length 15+ million people (about 5% of the U.S. population) rely on the waters of the Delaware River Basin Drains 13,539 square miles in 4 states. Water withdrawal in the Basin = 8.7 billion gallons/day Significant Exports: NYC (up to 800 MGD) and NJ (up to 100 MGD) Longest, un dammed U.S. river east of the Mississippi (dams are located on tributaries, not the main stem Delaware) Contributes over $21B in economic value to the region.
3 Delaware River Basin Commission Founded by Compact in 1961 Five Equal Members: Delaware New Jersey Pennsylvania New York Federal Government Note: New York City and Philadelphia are advisors and not members
4 Why was the DRBC created? Water supply shortages and disputes over the apportionment of the basin s waters; Severe pollution in the Delaware River and its major tributaries; Serious flooding
5 The Need for Basin Scale Planning and Management 4 States 42 Counties 838 Municipalities Exports to NY City & NJ
6 Delaware River Basin Commission Managing our shared Basin water resources. Built on a shared and foundational commitment in the Delaware River Basin Compact to: Manage complex interstate water resource systems and needs. Collaborate with members on shared waters management issues from headwaters to the Ocean. Adapt to achieve mission results. Balance progress and protection. Partner to achieve for the Basin, what individual members cannot achieve alone. 6
7 DRBC Advisory Committees Flood Regulated Flow Water Management Toxics Water Quality Monitoring Advisory & Coordination
8 DRBC Primary Functional Responsibilities Water Supply Drought Management Flood Loss Reduction Water Quality Watershed Planning Regulatory Review (Permitting) Outreach/Education Recreation
9 Core Water Supply Planning Question Can the Delaware River Basin support the following objectives during a repeat of the drought of record (or greater)?: Meet flow management targets at Montague NJ and Trenton, NJ Keep the salt line at targeted river miles so as to not impact drinking water supplies, aquifers, and industrial uses. Support overall basin demands with required levels of drought related demand management.

12 Mega Trends and Other Emerging Planning Issues Demographics: Changes and Shifts Climate Change: Sea level rise, frequency and intensity of storms and droughts Energy Water Nexus Possible Shale Gas Development Energy and Water Efficiency Note: 4.62 mm/yr = 1.5 ft/100 years
13 WMAC Created: Resolution Ground Water Advisory Committee (1982) Water Conservation Advisory Committee (1983) Water Management Advisory Committee (1998)
14 Purpose of WMAC Water demand and consumptive use forecasting Implementation of water conservation regulations Models and methods for characterizing groundwater flow and instream flow needs Protocol for review of integrated resource plans Recommendations for the conduct of watershed based plans
