Groundwater Sustainability Plans due out July and August 2019
In September 2014, Governor Brown signed into law the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA) commonly referred to as “Sig-Ma”. Official implementation of the law began January 1, 2015 and everyone who extracts more than two acre feet of water from underground aquifers, specifically in the 127 overdrafted basins here in California are subject to the new law.
