From the meeting
AB 2619 was approved by the Governor on 2026-09-21 and requires data center owners and operators to disclose projected and actual water use. It also requires urban water suppliers to account for data center demand in water shortage planning. CBMWD flagged improved water demand forecasting and long-term supply and infrastructure planning.
The buying trigger is planning work around large-load water demand, not a contract award.
