Sustainable Groundwater Management Meeting Announcement

The Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) went into effect January 1, 2015. It was described as:

“Local agencies will now have the power to assess the conditions of their local groundwater basins and take the necessary steps to bring those basins in a state of chronic long-term overdraft into balance.”

-Governor Edmund G. Brown Jr—From the letter accompanying the signing of AB 1739, SB 1168, and SB 1319

Please join us on the morning of Friday, April 5, 2019at Rolling Hills Casino Event Center in Corning, CA for a regional forum to discuss how local agencies are progressing in the implementation of SGMA. It is vital that local water users understand SGMA and engage in its implementation.
