Groundwater Management Groundwater provides over half Sample Clauses

Groundwater Management Groundwater provides over half the water used in our region. It is essential that we protect it as a sustainable resource for now and the future. In several areas within our region over-reliance on this source is causing groundwater elevations to decline. In some areas we will need to implement conjunctive use programs that use surface water in wetter years and groundwater in drier years in order to stop this decline. Representatives of suppliers, businesses and agriculture who use their own xxxxx in the North Sacramento county area were appointed to the Sacramento North Area Groundwater Management Authority. To the extent that conjunctive use programs need to be funded, the Authority has the authority to establish regulatory fees and will apportion these regulatory fees based on the level of benefit received. In the North Area, residential pumpers who irrigate less than two and a half acres are exempt from any regulatory fees. The Sacramento North Area Groundwater Management Authority may also decide to exempt or modify the conditions applying to other types of users. Approval of any regulatory fees will be subject to all requirements of the law including full public notice and hearings. Discussions about groundwater management in the South Area and the Galt Area will be undertaken by the Water Forum Successor Effort. Because the South Area and the Galt Area each have their own unique circumstances, the Sacramento North Area Groundwater Management Authority, including its financing arrangements, is not a template for programs appropriate to the needs in these two areas.
