The board unanimously approved participation in a sub-basin-wide process to develop one GSP covering all 13 GSAs in the Tule Sub-Basin. This mirrors the approach that successfully got the Kern and Delta-Mendota sub-basins out of state probation. A policy group of farmers and GSA representatives has been meeting biweekly since January to drive this effort. Technical consultants from each GSA will collaborate on a unified data set. A scope of work and cost estimate will come back to the board in May for formal approval. Costs will be shared on a pro-rata, per-acre basis across participating GSAs.
