Groundwater Sustainability Plan
Although the CGSA is a member of the KGA, CGSA opted to develop a CGSA specific GSP and to coordinate with the KGA to incorporate the GSP into the Kern County Groundwater Subbasin single master or “umbrella” GSA. “ (new paragraph)” The CGSA will conduct communication and education outreach efforts to inform the local stakeholders and provide workshops to get our local stakeholders involved in the GSP development process. Please see the Stakeholder Outreach page for additional information.
