East Bay water officials declare drought, ask residents to conserve water

East Bay water officials declare drought, ask residents to conserve water East Bay Municipal Utility District officials declared a “Stage 1” drought on Tuesday, asking residents to cut down their water consumption as the region faces its driest year on record amid statewide drought conditions. The water district serves most of the East Bay, including Berkeley and Oakland, and officials said during their board meeting Tuesday that rainfall this winter season fell far short of the levels needed to meet storage targets and provide water to its 1.4 million customers. The Mokelumne River watershed in the Sierra Nevada, which houses the region’s water, has only received about half of its average yearly rainfall overall with no more rain in sight, said Lena Tam, EBMUD manager of water resources planning. Rainfall in the East Bay has been even worse, creating the driest year on record, and rainfall expected last weekend did not materialize.

EBMUD’s drought-response plan also proposes to purchase supplemental water supplies from the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation’s Central Valley Project and divert water from the Freeport Regional Water Project in Sacramento, among other measures. “To date, 2021 has been the second driest year on record in the Mokelumne River basin and the driest year on record for the East Bay,” according to EBMUD.
