This IRWMP is a comprehensive plan that primarily addresses Regionwide water management and related issues. The Plan complies with the State Guidelines for an Integrated Regional Water Management Plan, and provides for an integration of project and program implementation strategies which best address the needs and objectives of the Region. The Plan supports the development and implementation of individual watershed protection plans for each of the three major watersheds in the Region, which will focus more directly on monitoring and implementing projects that are watershed-specific. Watershed-specific plans will also allow for more localized stakeholder review reflecting input that is more difficult to achieve on the larger scale of the regional IRWMP. One such plan has already been adopted: the Calleguas Creek Watershed Management Plan. Watershed management plans are also being considered for the Ventura River and Santa Clara River Watersheds.
