David Noren knows what it’s like to depend on groundwater. He grew up in Bennett Valley in a home with a well and has for the last 30 years lived in his Sebastopol home that also draws its water from the Santa Rosa Plain. He also works in water, as a manager of environmental services at EBA Engineering where one of his many duties involves assessment of water quality. Over the years he has developed a keen perspective on groundwater as a shared community resource which demands our collectiv...| Santa Rosa Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency

The results of this assessment will be used to develop a water use efficiency pilot program unique to the Santa Rosa Plain subbasin that will prioritize actions to reduce water demands for private well users. You can view the results of this assessment in the Technical Memo. An essential component to the water use efficiency program is making tools and incentives available to groundwater users in the subbasin that will be offered on a voluntary basis. The pilot program will be made available ...| Santa Rosa Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency

The Santa Rosa Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA), in partnership with the City of Santa Rosa Water Department (Santa Rosa Water), will conduct a pilot test at an existing well on Martha Way to evaluate the feasibility of storing and recovering drinking water in the underground aquifer. This process is known as Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR), which you can learn more about here. The purpose of the project is to gather valuable information about the viability of ASR as a tool to...| Santa Rosa Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency
The Groundwater Sustainability Agencies (GSAs) in Sonoma County are here to help. Funded by a grant from the California Department of Water Resources, the GSAs have created the Flow Smart Program to help us learn more about our wide variety of groundwater use. The Flow Smart Program will partner with well owners to gather data on water use using well flow metering devices. Over time, the groundwater use data gathered from wells throughout our groundwater basins will improve the GSA’s unde...| Santa Rosa Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency
