California Farm Bureau President Shannon Douglass commented on the release of Gov. Gavin Newsom’s updated California Water Plan.
“Farm Bureau congratulates Gov. Newsom and his administration on the update of California Water Plan 2023, the latest iteration of a long-term strategy that has guided our state’s water management approach for nearly 70 years,” Douglass said. “We’re encouraged that the plan highlights infrastructure projects to capture, store and convey water supplies. We’re also pleased that it seeks to reduce permitting burdens for projects that support water resilience, including through groundwater recharge and habitat restoration.”
The California Farm Bureau works to protect family farms and ranches on behalf of more than 26,000 members statewide and as part of a nationwide network of 5.8 million Farm Bureau members.
