What AB 2728 does, verified September 6, 2026
The proposed bill aims to improve the management of California's water resources by requiring the coordination and integration of existing water and ecological data from local, state, and federal agencies. This data will be used to improve the efficacy of management actions. A statewide integrated water data platform will be created and maintained by the department of water resources, in consultation with other relevant agencies, to integrate existing data information from multiple databases. The platform will be made available by August 1, 2027, and will include information from state and federal agencies, such as hatchery production, release, and escapement.
