Undesirable Results Definitions
Introduction:
Management areas shallbeidentified by the basin and shown on
exhibit “A”.
epesentative Monitoring Locationsshall mean the locations
?r
within the basin which are identified and designated by the GSA’s
for purposes of monitoring sustainability indicators.
Critical Infrastructure shall meanfacilities which are utilized to
provide public services such as water, utilities, and or
transportation service for a region.
Prolonged Drought The undesirable results herein take into
–
account the accommodation of a prolonged drought as defined in
DWR’s BMP.
Chronic Lowering of Water Levels
–
The point at whichsignificant and unreasonable impactsover the
planning and implementation horizon,as determined by
depth/elevation ofwateraffectthe reasonable and beneficial use of,
,
and access to, groundwater by overlying users.
This is determined when the minimum threshold for groundwater
levelsare exceeded in at least three(3) adjacent management areas
thatrepresent at least 15% of the subbasinor greater than 30% of the
subbasin(as measured by each Management Area).Minimum
thresholds shall be set by each of the management areas through their
respective Groundwater Sustainability Plans.
Groundwater Storage
–
The point at whichsignificant and unreasonable impacts, as
determined by the amount ofgroundwater in the basin, affect the
reasonable and beneficial use of, and access to, groundwater by
overlying usersover an extended drought period(10years?)
.-
This is determined when the volume of storage(above the
groundwater level minimum thresholds) is depleted to an elevation
lower than the groundwater level minimum threshold in at least
three(3) adjacent management areas thatrepresent at least 15% of
the subbasin or greater than 30% of the subbasin(as measured by the
acreage of each Management Area)
.
Minimum thresholds shall be set by each of the management areas
through their espective Groundwater Sustainability Plans.
r
Degraded Water QualityTrends
–
The point at which significant and unreasonable impacts over the
planning and implementation horizon, as caused by water
management actions, that affect the reasonable and beneficial use of,
and access to, groundwater by overlying users.
This is determined when the minimum threshold for groundwater
a
quality constituent of concernisexceeded in at least three(3) adjacent
management areas thatrepresent at least 15% of the subbasin or
greater than 30% of the designated monitoring pointswithin the
basin. Minimum thresholds shall be set by each of the management
areas through their respective Groundwater Sustainability Plans.
Land SubsidenceTrends
–
The point at which significant and unreasonable impacts, as
determined by a subsidence rate and extent in the basin, that affect
s
the surface land uses or critical infrastructure
.
This is determined when subsidence results in significant and
unreasonable impacts to critical infrastructure as indicated by
monitoring points established by a basin wide coordinated GSP
subsidence monitoring plan.
