Drought Preparedness
Current Drought Response Stage: Stage One
Marana's Drought Preparedness Plan(PDF, 261KB) - Marana’s Drought Preparedness Plan (DPP) was created working with regional partners. The DPP was first adopted in 2007 to heighten awareness and provide a response to potential reduction in our available water supply due to drought.
The Plan includes indicators and triggers that determine which of the four stages, in increasing severity, are selected and outlines the actions and potential actions at each stage. Under Stage One of our plan, Marana Water requests voluntary conservation, asking customers to reduce consumption by 5% through limiting landscape irrigation and avoiding outdoor water uses like misters and car washes when possible.
Find out more information on state-wide and local drought conditions through ADWR and LDIG.
