Borrego Water District

The Borrego Water District, located in Borrego Springs, California, is dedicated to managing the critical groundwater resources of the Borrego Valley Basin under the framework of the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA). In collaboration with the County of San Diego and local stakeholders, they are developing a Groundwater Sustainability Plan to address severe overdraft issues and ensure long-term sustainability of the basin's water supply.

With an overdraft estimated at roughly 13,000 acre-feet per year, the Borrego Water District is committed to implementing substantial reductions in water usage across municipal, agricultural, and recreational activities. Their proactive approach aims to restore balance to the groundwater levels and safeguard the quality of this vital resource for current and future users.
