At the September 9, 2021, meeting, we will introduce the Public Draft Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP), which includes all GSP chapters that have been individually reviewed and “set aside” up to the present time.

What is the Big Valley Groundwater Basin Advisory Committee (BVAC)?

The BVAC is the committee formed to advise the Lassen and Modoc Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSAs) during development of the Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP).

What is a Groundwater Sustainability Plan?

A GSP is a detailed planning document, required by the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), that establishes a groundwater budget, minimum thresholds, and management actions to achieve long-term sustainability.

Who is developing the GSP in Big Valley?

Lassen and Modoc Counties have agreed to serve as the GSAs and work collaboratively to develop a single GSP for the entire Big Valley Groundwater Basin (BVGB). The BVAC has been established to help guide the process and all BVAC meetings will be open to the public and public comment is encouraged.
