7 Proposed Alabama Water Management Planning and Implementation Process
8 Proposed Alabama Water Management Planning and Implementation Process
9 Technical Track Consists of science and engineering activities related to improving the understanding of Alabama water resources and their uses
10 Focus Panel Track Goal is to involve technical subject matter experts who will discuss and make recommendations with respect to these water resource issues
11 Stakeholder Outreach Track Goal is to educate and inform the public on the progress of water management planning and solicit their input and includes activities such as these
12 Process Support Recognize funding and support requirements to accomplish tasks Update Governor s Office and Legislature Support agency involvement Identify additional needs to support this effort Track
13 Proposed Alabama Water Management Planning and Implementation Process
14 Proposed Alabama Water Resources Management Plan Themes and Topics
15 Proposed Alabama Water Management Planning and Implementation Process
16 Alabama Water MAP Process AWAWG recommends an approach to implement statewide water resources management that consists of Monitoring data, technical Assessments, and periodic review of Plans and policies.
17 Governor Bentley s Instructions, August 1, Continue the AWAWG Dr. Nick Tew Chairman Added Dr. John Christy, State Climatologist 2. Further engage stakeholders - Provide recommendations on a formal stakeholder process, including composition, structure, and operational parameters.
18 Governor Bentley s Instructions, August 1, Prioritize data assessment - Coordinate with and GSA to incorporate the findings of the ground- and surface-water assessments into the AWAWG process to help ensure that the assessments results provide the necessary data and information to enhance our understanding of Alabama s water resources and to guide the development of water management programs and policies for the state.
19 Governor Bentley s Instructions, August 1, Develop the Focus Panels Further develop the establishment and operation of the issue-based Focus Panels including structure, timelines, and deliverables. In addition, determine which issues need further analysis by the Focus Panels considering those listed in the December Report, and any others, as appropriate. Recommendations for establishment and operation of the focus panels shall be submitted to Governor s Office for consideration and direction. Due by December 1, 2014
20 Assessment Process Define what you have (Flows) Define what you need (Withdrawals) Step 1 Step 2
21 Water Withdrawal Sources
22 Water Withdrawal Sources Fall Line
23 ~60% of the population Water Withdrawal Sources ~60% ground water ~80% surface water Fall Line 60% of the population lives above the Fall Line Surface water is used by a margin of 4 to 1 compared to ground water above the fall line Ground water is the predominant source in the Coastal Plain
