5 The challenges: 1. WATER IN THE WEST IS CHANGING.
6 POLICYFORUM CLIMATE CHANGE Stationarity Is Dead: Whither Water Management? Climate change undermines a basic assumption that historically has facilitated management of water supplies, demands, and risks. P. C. D. Milly, 1 * Julio Betancourt, 2 Malin Falkenmark, 3 Robert M. Hirsch, 4 Zbigniew W. Kundzewicz, 5 Dennis P. Lettenmaier, 6 Ronald J. Stouffer 7 Systems for management of water throughout the developed world have been designed and operated under the assumption of stationarity. Stationarity the idea that natural systems fluctuate within an unchanging envelope of variability is a foundational concept that permeates training and practice in water-resource engineering. It implies that any variable (e.g., annual streamflow or annual flood peak) has a time-invariant (or 1-year periodic) probability density function (pdf), whose properties can be estimated from the instrument record. Under stathat has emerged from climate models (see figure, p. 574). Why now? That anthropogenic climate change affects the water cycle (9) and water supply (10) is not a new finding. Nevertheless, sensible objections to discarding stationarity have been raised. For a time, hydroclimate had not demonstrably exited the envelope of natural variability and/or the effective range of optimally operated infrastructure (11, 12). Accounting for the substantial uncertainties of climatic parameters estimated from short records (13) effectively hedged against small Milly, P.C.D., Betancourt, J., Falkenmark, M., Hirsch, R., Kundzewicz, Z., Lettenmaier, D., and Stouffer, R., Stationarity Is Dead: Whither Water Management?, Science, 1 February 2008: 319 (5863),
7 The response: DESIGN FOR VARIABILITY.
8 The challenges: 2. WATER IN THE WEST IS ENERGY-and CARBON-INTENSIVE.

12 The response: UNCOUPLE THE WATER-ENERGY NEXUS.
13 The challenges: 3. POLICY BARRIERS SEPARATE WATER QUALITY vs. WATER SUPPLY
14 Quality: Federal Water Pollution Control Act (1948) Clean Water Act ( ) 33 U.S.C et seq. (1972)
15 Supply: CA Superior Court: City of LA vs. City of San Fernando, et al. (1962), (1979) City of LA Granted Pueblo Rights Safe Yield REQUIRES Imported Supplies Los Angeles County Flood Control District, Design Manual-Hydraulic, Los Angeles, March 1982.
16 Supply: Los Angeles County Flood Control District, Hydraulic Design Manual, 1982 Stormwater as Threat Los Angeles County Flood Control District, Design Manual-Hydraulic, Los Angeles, March 1982.
17 Quality: California Regional Water Quality Control Board, Municipal Stormwater and Wastewater Discharge Requirements, Dec
18
19 The response: INTEGRATE WATER QUALITY and SUPPLY POLICY.
20 The opportunity: Los Angeles as test-bed. The case for localization.
21 Maximizing use, reuse, and recovery of rain and stormwater resources is central to establishing a robust localized water portfolio.
22 MWD Blue Ribbon Committee: By maximizing use and recovery of rain and stormwater resources while improving water use efficiency and recycling, up to 82% of water demand can be met through the strategic use and reuse of a broad-scale local water resource portfolio.
