(Phys.org)—The goal of a drought plan is to sustain water availability by reducing water use in response to drought or emergency conditions. Because emergency conditions can develop rapidly, responses must be enacted quickly. Consequently, drought plans need to be prepared in advance, considering conditions that will initiate and terminate the conservation measures.
