local groundwater agencies

Local groundwater agencies are organizations responsible for managing and protecting underground water resources within a specific area. They oversee the sustainable use of aquifers by regulating groundwater extraction, ensuring water quality, and implementing conservation measures. These agencies work with local governments, water districts, and community stakeholders to balance use with recharge of the underground water. Their goal is to maintain a reliable water supply for agriculture, industry, and residents while safeguarding the health of the groundwater ecosystem for future generations.
