Description
North kern water storage district (NKWSD), located in bakersfield, california, currently operates a groundwater banking program whereby the district actively participates in groundwater recharge and storage through the use of spreading ponds and in-lieu recharge activities. To better manage and improve access to previously stored water, the district will construct the return capacity improvements project consisting of three wells and associated pipelines to integrate the wells into the existing conveyance network. The project will increase water supply reliability and add drought resiliency to the region. NKWSD estimates on average that this project will recover 3,689 acre-feet of previously banked water per year. Of this amount, 1,845 acre-feet will be reserved for in-district use and 3,689 acre-feet will be allocated to neighboring districts. This project is supported by the poso creek integrated regional water management group's drought contingency plan (DCP). The DCP is being developed with assistance from a watersmart drought contingency planning grant.
