Full text of Guam Guam Code Annotated § 14303 — Adoption of Drought Condition Standards and Low Groundwater Level Conditions and, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 14303. Adoption of Drought Condition Standards and Low Groundwater Level Conditions and
Severity Alert Phases.
(a) Fena Reservoir, owned and operated by the U. S. Navy Public Works Center (PWC), is the largest
source of potable surface water supply on Guam. Currently, government of Guam’s overall water
production includes purchases of approximately seventy percent (70%) of Fena Reservoir’s total
production, and thus negative changes in Fena’s water level reduces GWA’s overall water supply for
civilian users. Therefore, PWC’s Water Conservation Levels (WCL), established by USCINCPAC REP
GUAM/CNMI/FSM/ROP INSTRUCTION 11330.1, including any amendments thereto, are hereby
adopted as the Island’s drought condition standards and levels of severity, and are to be made an integral
part of the Guam Drought Management and Comprehensive Water Conservation Plan.
(b) Concurrently, and in addition to adoption of PWC’s Fena-level WCL, standards for low
groundwater (water wells) level conditions, plus severity alert phases, shall be developed and adopted as
an integral part of the Guam Drought Management and Comprehensive Water Conservation Plan.
