The Carmichael Water District was awarded a $4.5 million project grant from the Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation under the Reclamation States Emergency Drought Relief program (CFDA 15.514). The grant will fund construction of a new Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) well to enhance the District's conjunctive use program and build long-term drought resiliency. The ASR well is expected to provide an average annual benefit of 605 acre-feet of additional groundwater recharge and access to over 1,200 acre-feet of previously banked water for use during drought years. This will alleviate demand on the stressed American River while supporting goals in the District's 2020 Urban Water Management Plan to reduce need for emergency response actions during drought. Completion of the ASR well construction is scheduled for June 2025 and aligns with mitigation actions identified in the regional drought contingency plan developed with prior Bureau of Reclamation funding.
