Santa Ana 2020 Urban Water Management Plan <br />arcadis.com <br />10-1 <br />10 PLAN ADOPTION, SUBMITTAL, AND IMPLEMENTATION <br />The Water Code requires the UWMP to be adopted by the Supplier’s governing body. Before the <br />adoption of the UWMP, the Supplier has to notify the public and the cities and counties within its service <br />area per the Water Code and hold a public hearing to receive input from the public on the UWMP. <br />Post adoption, the Supplier submits the UWMP to DWR and the other key agencies and makes it <br />available for public review. <br />This section provides a record of the process the City followed to adopt and implement its UWMP. <br />Overview <br />Recognizing that close coordination among other relevant public agencies is key to the success of its <br />UWMP, the City worked closely with many other entities, including representation from diverse social, <br />cultural, and economic elements of the population within the City’s service area, to develop and update <br />this planning document. The City also encouraged public involvement through its public hearing process, <br />which provided residents with an opportunity to learn and ask questions about their water supply <br />management and reliability. Through the public hearing, the public has an opportunity to comment and <br />put forward any suggestions for revisions of the Plan. <br />Table 10-1 summarizes external coordination and outreach activities carried out by the City and their <br />corresponding dates. The UWMP checklist to confirm compliance with the Water Code is provided in <br />Appendix A. <br />Table 10-1: External Coordination and Outreach <br />External Coordination and Outreach Date Reference <br />Notified the cities and counties within the Supplier’s service area <br />that Supplier is preparing an updated UWMP (at least 60 days <br />prior to public hearing) <br />3/8/2021 Appendix K <br />Public Hearing Notice 5/19/2021 & <br />5/26/2021 Appendix K <br />Held Public Hearing 6/1/2021 Appendix K <br />Adopted UWMP 6/1/2021 Appendix L <br />Submitted UWMP to DWR (no later than 30 days after adoption) 7/1/2021 - <br />Submitted UWMP to the California State Library (no later than 30 <br />days after adoption) 7/1/2021 - <br />Submitted UWMP to the cities and counties within the Supplier’s <br />service area (no later than 30 days after adoption) 7/1/2021 - <br />Made UWMP available for public review (no later than 30 days <br />after filing with DWR) 8/1/2021 -
