Groundwater Recharge Projects: Considerations for Water Managers and Neighboring Landowners
Environmental Law News Vol 29, No. 2; California Real Property Journal Vol. 38, No. 3; Public Law Journal Vol. 43, No. 3
California has developed an insatiable reliance on groundwater. Demand for water in California far outpaces its supply, and, as a result, water users are faced with a hard choice: increase local supply or reduce groundwater pumping. This imbalance might not have been so severe had California expanded surface water supply and not been the last western state to regulate groundwater use. Now—after almost a century of mismanagement—California has decided to begin addressing its groundwater woes. Although many tools will be required to reverse unsustainable trends, one increasingly popular idea is the use of surface water for groundwater recharge and banking. In an effort to address these problems, the state enacted a new regulatory process to streamline opportunities for groundwater recharge and banking.
This article provides an overview of groundwater recharge and its benefits, examines the state’s new framework for implementing recharge projects, and considers significant issues for project managers and neighboring landowners.
