SBX7 6 Groundwater Elevation Monitoring Program Workshops

ACWA and the Department of Water Resources (DWR) invite you to an interactive workshop to discuss the draft SBX7 6 Groundwater Elevation Monitoring Program guidelines, the result of legislation included in the 2009 Comprehensive Water Package.

SBX7 6 requires groundwater elevation monitoring for all 515 groundwater basins/subbasins in California to better manage the resource during normal, wet and dry water years. Because an entity must volunteer to coordinate monitoring efforts for each basin/subbasin by January 1, 2011, and elevation monitoring and reporting must begin by January 1, 2012, it is extremely important that affected agencies attend the workshop to learn about the program, proposed volunteer criteria, ask questions, and provide public input while the guidelines are in draft form.

There is no charge to attend this event.
