Description
Over 2.2 million acre-feet of water has been delivered to the districts spreading grounds, averaging approximately 44,200 acre-feet per year. The water banking program enables the DISTRICT to participate in water transfers and exchanges with up to 20 agencies throughout california. The DISTRICT will construct two drought recovery wells and a conjunctive use modeling tool to improve the management of water supplies through informed operational decision making. This will increase operational flexibilities and efficiencies and facilitate additional water transfers and exchanges. The two new wells will yield approximately 8,040 acre-feet per year during drought periods, with the average annual benefit approximately 4,084 acre-feet per year. The project area is currently in an extreme drought, and three long-term droughts have affected the area since 2000. This project is supported by the south of kern river groundwater sustainability plan.
