About this award
The North Kern Water Storage District received a $9.77 million Project Grant award dated September 16, 2025, from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the WaterSMART (Sustain and Manage America's Resources for Tomorrow) program (CFDA 15.507) to concrete line approximately 1.4 miles of the Calloway Canal in Kern County, California. The project is scheduled for completion by December 31, 2029, and will deliver concrete lining infrastructure designed to eliminate seepage losses and conserve water resources in an over-drafted groundwater basin.
The primary product deliverable is water conservation infrastructure that is expected to generate annual water savings of 2,788 acre-feet currently lost through canal seepage. By reducing water losses, the project will improve water reliability and delivery efficiency for the district's service area while simultaneously reducing demand on the San Joaquin Valley's critically stressed groundwater basin. This infrastructure improvement aligns with WaterSMART's core focus on cost-shared water management projects that advance sustainability and conservation objectives.
Description
The project is expected to result in annual water savings of 2,788 acre-feet, currently lost through seepage. Water conserved through the project will improve water reliability and deliveries thus conserving groundwater in an over-drafted basin.
