Description
The project is expected to result in annual water savings of 2,366 acre-feet, which is currently seeping into the groundwater basin that has poor water quality. The groundwater basin in the SAN joaquin valley portion of kern county is critically stressed, especially when pumping increases during dry years, and the region is perpetually experiencing drought conditions. Lining the canal will allow for more efficient delivery of surface water supplies and reduce dependency on the kern river by giving the district greater flexibility to time its diversions. The project will help to reduce current groundwater use in an area where the water quality of recovered groundwater is not suitable for irrigation without costly treatment.
