The purpose of the Assumptions and Estimates (A&E) Report is to describe data and information sources that will be used to develop technical information for California Water Plan Update 2009. We are distributing a draft of the A&E Report two years before releasing the final California Water Plan Update 2009 to solicit public comment early in the planning process. We will publish the final A&E Report in December 2008, along with the Public Review Draft of Update 2009.
