Draft Supplemental EIR
xeriscape, native California plants, and water conserving irrigation techniques as
materials become available. (SCVAP 2012 EIR MM 3.13.12)
MM 5.12-18 Promote the use of low-flow and/or waterless plumbing fixtures and appliances in
all new non-residential development and residential development of five or more
dwelling units. (SCVAP 2012 EIR MM 3.13.13)
MM 5.12-19 Support amendments to the County Building Code that would promote upgrades
to water and energy efficiency when issuing permits for renovations or additions to
existing buildings. (SCVAP 2012 EIR MM 3.13.14)
MM 5.12-20 Apply water conservation policies to all pending development projects, including
approved tentative subdivision maps to the extent permitted by law. Where

conservation in construction and landscape design. (SCVAP 2012 EIR
MM 3.13.15)
MM 5.12-21 Upon the availability of non-potable water services, discourage and consider
restrictions on the use of potable water for washing outdoor surfaces. (SCVAP

MM 5.12-22 In cooperation with the Sanitation District and other affected agencies, expand
opportunities for use of recycled water for the purposes of landscape maintenance,
construction, water recharge, and other uses as appropriate. (SCVAP 2012 EIR
MM 3.13.17)
MM 5.12-23 Require new development to provide the infrastructure needed for delivery of
recycled water to the property for use in irrigation, even if the recycled water main
delivery lines have not yet reached the site. (SCVAP 2012 EIR MM 3.13.18)
MM 5.12-24 Participate and cooperate with other agencies to complete, adopt, and implement
an Integrated Regional Water Management Plan to build a diversified portfolio of

Clarita Valley. (SCVAP 2012 EIR MM 3.13.20)
MM 5.12-25 Require that all new development proposals demonstrate a sufficient and
sustainable water supply prior to approval. (SCVAP 2012 EIR MM 3.13.21)
MM 5.12-26 Promote energy efficiency and water conservation upgrades to existing non-
residential buildings at the time of major remodel or additions. (SCVAP 2012 EIR
MM 3.13.22)
Level of Significance With SCVAP 2012 Mitigation: Less Than Significant
Recommended 1992 SP EIR Mitigation Measures: No additional mitigation is required;
however, the following mitigation measures shall be implemented to further reduce the potential
for an impact.
MM 5.12-27 Landscaping shall emphasize drought-tolerant vegetation (xeriscaping) where not
watered with reclaimed water. Plants of similar water use shall be grouped to
reduce over-irrigation of low-water-using plants. Those areas not designed in
xeriscape shall be gauged to receive irrigation using the minimal requirements.
(1992 SP EIR MM 4.12.6)
