WRD met with the Natural Resources Defense Council and received a
presentation of their Low-Impact Development (LID) program.  The
LID program can provide increase capture and infiltration of
stormwater.  In the WRD service area in the Los Angeles Coastal
groundwater basin, this can reduce the need to import water
through the California State Water Project Aqueduct and the
Colorado River Aqueduct watershed to replenish groundwater
supplies.  This increases local reliability of groundwater
supplies.  Reducing demand for water pumped through these
aqueducts can also reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions
associated with the use of those facilities. WRD believes that
there is a significant potential benefit through the LID program
that warrants further analysis by CARB.
