Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP)

Groundwater Sustainability Plan

Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) – A plan developed by a GSA to achieve sustainability pursuant to the SGMA.

The San Joaquin River Exchange Contractors GSA (SJREC GSA) worked with 10 neighboring GSA’s to develop a joint GSP.  The main body of the GSP was developed for the SJREC GSA with a discrete chapter for each partner GSA in the plan.

The GSP was adopted by the SJREC GSA on December 13, 2019.

The California Department of Water Resources (DWR) has developed some useful tools to aid in GSP development.  See below for some links to the DWR tools.
