Aliso Water District Groundwater Sustainability Agency

SGMA & the Aliso Water District GSA

In 2014, the California Sustainable Groundwater Management Act was signed into law to provide local agencies with the framework to manage groundwater basins in a sustainable manner, recognizing that groundwater is most effectively managed at the local level.  The Aliso Water District Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) represents the interests of the groundwater users within the Aliso Water District.
