Low Water Use Drought Tolerant Plant Lists
The Low Water Use/Drought Tolerant Plant Lists are used by the Department of
Water Resources as a regulatory document in all Active Management Areas in
both the Municipal and Industrial Conservation Programs of the Third
Management Plan. Each Active Management Area has an independent advisory
group of plant experts that review all plants submitted for addition or
deletion to their individual AMA plant lists. To add or delete plants from
any AMA plant list requires a separate application and approval process for
each AMA. Forms are available by contacting the AMA.
