- CHAPTER 10. Groundwater Sustainability [79770. - 79775.]
Prevention and cleanup of groundwater contamination are critical components of successful groundwater management. Groundwater quality becomes especially important as water providers do the following:
(a) Evaluate investments in groundwater recharge with surface water, stormwater, recycled water, and other conjunctive use projects that augment local groundwater supplies to improve regional water self-reliance.
(b) Adapt to changing hydrologic conditions brought on by climate change.
(c) Consider developing groundwater basins to provide much needed local storage options to accommodate hydrologic and regulatory variability in the state’s water delivery system.
(d) Evaluate investments in groundwater recovery projects.
