Drought Resources and Information

California is experiencing a serious drought. In May, 2021, an Emergency Drought Declaration was passed by Governor Newsom that included Stanislaus County. Residents throughout the Central Valley should be aware of resources and conservation measures to help manage one of our most precious natural resources, our water. This page provides a directory of helpful resources for residents as we deal with the impacts of the drought, including drought related issues, regional programs for well users and available funding for disadvantaged communities. Several local programs are available to support the water needs of residents.
