Abstract: This Guide has been prepared to help public water supply managers assess their situation, develop a drought management plan, identify and monitor drought stages, and effectively manage system supply and demand during a drought. It focuses on developing a drought management plan for public water supplies. This Guide should serve as a basic reference document to the Summary''. This Guide does not address detailed planning for developing water supplies nor other responses requiring a considerable expenditure of time or money. Such planning and system expansion or renovation should be handled as a part of normal operations and maintenance. Where a system or source of water fails to meet the most essential demands, that supplier may chose to embark on a program for improving the system's capacity through development of alternative supplies of water, overall demand reduction, leakage control, etc. 10 refs., 1 fig., 4 tabs.
