After historic levels of rain and snow this winter season, California expects to fill 100% of water requests from cities and farms for the first time since 2006.
Because the state's reservoirs have nearly reached capacity, and the snowpack is beginning to melt, any contractor who needs water, and has the ability to store it, can have it, the department said.
The water supply will be delivered through the State Water Project's 29 agencies, which serve 27 million Californians and 750,000 acres of farmland. While this water allocation forecast is good news for cities and farmland across the state, Northern California is still struggling with its groundwater supply, the Department of Water Resources said.
