Concepts
Definitions• Drought: Unpredictable natural phenomenon that comes about mainly due to a lack of
precipitation which leads to a temporary but significant decrease in the available water resources (definition 62 of the Hydrological Planning Instruction, approved by Ministerial Order ARM/2656/2008, of 10th September).
• Prolonged drought: Drought produced due to exceptional circumstances or other circumstances that could not reasonably be foreseen. The identification of these circumstances is achieved by using indicators related to the lack of precipitation during a time period and taking into account aspects as its intensity and duration (definition 63 of the Hydrological planning Instruction).
• Scarcity: Situation of lack of sufficient water resources to meet the demand of water foreseen in the respective hydrological plans, once the environmental restrictions have been secured.
• Structural scarcity: Situation characterised by a continuous shortage of water resources that impedes the compliance of the guarantee criteria regarding water demands established in the hydrological plan.
• Conjunctural scarcity: Situation of discontinuous water scarcity that while allowing the compliance of the guarantee criteria regarding water demands established in the hydrological plan, it, however, temporarily limits the supply in a significant way.
Historical droughts
Comparative analysis of different types of indicators: SPI3, SPI12, PDSI, ANDVI, IEE
Legal Framework for drought management in Spain
• Spain has sufferedimportant drought periodswith severe impacts onwater resources and wateruses.
•Traditionally, droughtshave been considered asan emergency situation tobe restored withextraordinary waterresources and measures(art. 58 W.L)
Drought management as emergency situation
Spatial distribution of the percentage of annual precipitation deviation with respect to the average of the reference series (1980/81-2011/12).
Law 10/2001, July 5, of the National HydrologicalPlan, establishes the bases for the droughtplanned management:
Policy bases for Drought Management Plans
The Ministry of Environment willestablish a global hydrologic indicatorsystem to foresee drought situations andto serve as general reference for theformal declaration of droughts.
River Basin Organisations will developDrought Management Plans (DMP).
Public Administration in charge of publicwater supply for population greater than20.000 inhabitants will develop anEmergency Plan for Drought Situations.
National indicator system
Objective: minimise environmental, social and economic impacts of drought situations
Entities in charge: River Basin Organisations
Contents: includes diagnosis of situation, hydrological indicator system, programme of measures and management and follow-up system.
Approval: Ministerial Order in 2007 (Revision approved in 2018)
Drought Management Plans
Main contents of the Jucar Drought Management Plan
Basic elements of the Special Drought Plan
• Drought characterisation and diagnose
• Indicator system in situations of prolonged drought andoccasional water scarcity
• Measures and actions to develop during the different phasesof drought and water scarcity
• Drought follow-up and post-drought reports. Assessment ofsocioeconomic and environmental impacts
• Reference framework for supply emergency plans

Indicator system
Double system: indicators of prolonged drought and scarcity indicators
Indicators for prolonged drought:identify persistent and intensesituations of decreased rainfall,reflecting contributions in naturalregime.
Indicators for scarcity: identifysituations of difficulty to meet demandsdue to occasional shortage.
Territorial units of analysis:
• Exploitation systems for scarcity(UTE)
• Subdivision of exploitation systemsfor prolonged drought (UTS)
Indicator system for prolonged drought (IES)
From precipitation data of 47pluviometers (SPI12)

Water resource in France
Water ressource in FranceA country with comfortable water resource, generally abundant
Heterogeneous distribution of water resource in territories and in time (resource /abstractions)
⇒ Development of the agricultural irrigation in the 70s and 80s to face the dry season
Management 1970-2008Legal procedures for each abstraction / withdrawal without the assessement of the impact of cumulative abstractions Crisis management through restriction measures (drought decree)
=> authorization of all abstractions and regulation with restriction measures, years with low water resource
=> current reform from 2008 = to adjust legal rights and allocation with water resource
Actions to decrease the deficitActions to keep the balance

Quantitative water management in France and European Water Framework Directive (2000)
Structural deficit not compliant with the European Water Framework Directive objectives- good ecological status for surface water bodies - good quantitative status for groundwater bodies
⇒ Reform of the quantitative water management in order to balance consumptions with ressource
⇒ Studies of the abstractable volumes (2009-2015) for the river basins with a structural deficit
⇒ Territorial plans (2016-2018 elaboration, 2019-2021 implementation) : water savings, water transfers, water storage and new dams, deep groundwater, crisis management
6
Circular of the Ministry of Ecology towardsquantitative resource management
30 th June 2008���� Principles
To ensure the balance between water resource, the legal water
abstraction and the ecological minimal flow, without using
restrictions statistically 8 years over 10
=> Focusing on river basins with structural deficit
=> Crisis management every year => once every 5 years (2/10)
=> Assessment of water resource to be shared between differentuses (studies) through terrirorials plans
⇒ Delineation of areas of high deficit over 30 %
=> Development of collective irrigation within hydrological unitswith high water demand to be managed by local water usersassocation
Legal procedure related to abstractions
e
1.1.2.0 – abstraction in groundwater through a drill
> 200 000 m3/year => AUTORIZATION-
[ 10 000 m3/year to 200 000 m3/year] => DECLARATION-
1.2.1.0 – abstraction in surface water resource
(within river bank aquifer)
> 1000m3/h or 5% Q5* =>AUTHORIZATION-
[400 to 1000m3/h] or [2% 5%]of Q5* => DECLARATION-
*Q5 = mensual natural flow of a driest year over five
2 types of procedures : authorization or declaration french law water of 1992
Domestic abstractions are not concerned ( <1000m3/year )
8
Areas of high structural deficit (over 30%)
���� Legal text : section L211-2 et R211-71 CE
Hydrological unit suffering from deficit, not due to exeptionnal drought = permanent and structural deficit due to abstractions
�Consequencies
Reinforcement of the legal protection of water resource / decrease of the thresholds for the legal procedure of declaration and authorization
Awarness of actors to the scarcity of water resourceNew abstractions are forbidden and all existing abstractions (except domestic) need to be regularized, through declaration authorization procedure
Increase of the water price
above 8m3/h => AUTHORIZATION-
under 8m3h => DECLARATION-
Legal procedure related to abstractions
�Temporary authorization for a seasonal activity (text. R214-24)
< 6 months
without significant and sustainable impact on the resource
in areas of high structural deficit : stopped from 2016 and
managed by the local water users association (irrigation
abstractions)
���� Counting obligation
Each water user has to meter and count its consumptions
and to send it to the administration

Studies of the abstractable volumes : different steps
- step 1: Strategic points and characterization of river basins
- step 2 : Assessment of abstractions
- step 3 : Natural hydrology flows
- step 4 : Needs of aquatic ecosystem
- step 5 : Assessment of abstractable volumes
- Notification of the results to be used in the territorial plans
12
Step 1 Characterization of river basins and identification of nodal and strategic points
Studies of the abstractable volumes
Characterization : geology, climatology, occurency of droughtsand crisis management, land uses, water abtraction
Identification of sub-basins and nodal points=> units of resource management
Nodal points located on the river⇒ calculation points (asbtractions/ consumptions, hydrology,
needs of aquatic ecosytem, mensual flow objectives )
Selection of 2 or 3 strategic points=> to be inserted in the master plan (RBMP) and become legal

Studies of the abstractable volumes
Step 2 : Assessment of the abstractions / evolution
Use of the different data bases : Water agencies (environmental
taxes), state authorities (water rights and quality data),
Irrigation : General Agricultural Inventory
Assessment of water demand according to agronomic models and
ratios for households
Use of population projections
Field investigations to measure flows and abstractions

Studies of the abstractable volumes
Step 2 : Assessment of the abstractions / evolutionAsbtractions <> consumption Restitutions from irrigation and water treatment plantsLanguedoc Roussillon area : preponderance of gravity irrigationwith important restitutions ( around 60% of the abstraction)
Abstraction = Consumption + restitutions to the river
For irrigation :
consumption for irrigation = plants needs + water lost for the river
For drinkable water
Restitution via water treatment plants
