Description
Description | The Water Resources Control Board is enforcing sanctions against some Tulare County farmers in the Tule subbasin, including up to $12 million in pumping fees, due to insufficient progress in addressing subsidence and other groundwater management issues. The Tule subbasin was placed on probation in 2024 for lacking a coordinated groundwater management plan as required under the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA). The Board requires farmers to report groundwater pumping starting May 1 and has set fees of $20 per acre foot pumped and $300 per well, with a plan to revisit these fees in September. |
