- The Kern Tulare Water District (KTWD) was awarded a $4,012,136 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the Reclamation States Emergency Drought Relief program (CFDA 15.514). The grant, awarded on July 31, 2025, will fund the construction of a new well and over 8,000 linear feet of pipeline to establish a water banking return system in Bakersfield, CA. This project will enhance KTWD's ability to bank surface water supplies during wet years and...
The Turlock Irrigation District (TID) was awarded a $11,863,580.00 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of the Interior's Bureau of Reclamation under the Reclamation States Emergency Drought Relief program (CFDA 15.514). The funding will support the construction of the Lateral 5.5 Regulating Reservoir Project, which is expected to provide 6,000 acre-feet per year (AFY) in water management benefits for the Lateral 5.5 region. Key project components include capturing 4,000 AFY of water that would have otherwise been lost to spillage and allowing the transfer of 2,000 AFY of recycled water from the City of Turlock for agricultural irrigation, enhancing the region's drought resilience. The project, set to be completed by March 31, 2028, aims to reduce supplemental groundwater pumping and surface water diversions along Lateral 5.5, which represents 15% of TID's 20-year average water deliveries in the area.
