drought management
Arid period planning
Drought management is the coordinated effort to prepare for, respond to, and mitigate the effects of water scarcity.
It encompasses monitoring conditions, implementing water restrictions, developing emergency supplies, and planning long-term conservation strategies: The state's drought management plan triggers mandatory rationing when reservoir levels drop below thirty percent.
