Planning for Our Future

Our mission is to protect the City of Corona's water reclamation systems, water quality, our residents, our workers and the environment.

Achieving these objectives will eliminate the discharge of pollutants into surface waters and increase the level of water quality for our future and for generations to come.

Our program includes the following components:

• Ensure that the Utilities Department maintains compliance with water, wastewater and air quality programs.
• Implement the City of Corona's pre-treatment program.
• Work with industries to assist them in achieving compliance with pre-treatment requirements.

To learn more about compliance, read about our Required Plans & Reports, Discharge Regulations, and see our Consumer Confidence Reports.

Required Plans and Reports

URBAN WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN (UWMP)

An Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP) is required by the California Water Code and applies to all urban water suppliers that supply  more than 3,000 customers. UWMPs are required to be updated every five years for years ending in 0 or 5. The UWMP must satisfy all the requirements in the Urban Water Management Planning Act and is a  planning document that is used to:

• report to the Department of Water Resources on existing local and planned water supplies;
• compare forecasted supplies against demands during normal, dry and multiple-dry year conditions to ensure water supply reliability and sufficiency;
• maintain the efficient use of urban water supplies;
• promote conservation programs and policies; and
• provide a mechanism for response during drought conditions.

SEWER SYSTEM MANAGEMENT PLAN (SSMP)

The City of Corona Department of Water & Power was required to develop a Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP) per the State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) Order No. 2006-0003, Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sewer Systems (Order No. 06-03). The City of Corona's SSMP was adopted by Resolution No. 2023-022 of the Corona City Council on May 3^rd, 2023.

Water Supply Reliability Certification

On May 9, 2016, Governor Brown issued a new Executive Order directing actions aimed at using water wisely, reducing water waste, and improving water use efficiency. The Executive Order, in part, directs the State Water Board to extend the emergency regulations for urban water conservation through the end of January 2017. As part of the executive order, urban water districts must complete an annual Water Supply Certification to use as the basis for future water conservation targets.

In compliance with the order, here is the water supply reliability certification for the City of Corona Utilities Department: Water Supply Reliabilty Certification 6/22/16.
