The Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and Assessment Program (GAMA) is an all-inclusive monitoring program for groundwater that was implemented in 2000 in California, United States. It was created by the California State Water Resources Control Board as an improvement from groundwater programs that were already in place.
The SGMA determined 43 high-priority groundwater basins and 84 medium-priority groundwater basins, totaling 127 basins accounting for 96% of California's groundwater. These basins must adopt GSPs by 2020 or 2022 (depending on the basin) and have until 2040 or 2042 to attain sustainability.
Aquifers of the United States Withdrawal rates from the Ogallala Aquifer.. This is a list of some aquifers in the United States.. Map of major US aquifers by rock type. An aquifer is a geologic formation, a group of formations, or a part of a formation that contains sufficient saturated permeable material to yield significant quantities of water to groundwater wells and springs.
Version 3.1 was the last version that supported HP-UX, IRIX, OSF/1, and Solaris platforms. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] Development of GMS, along with development of WMS and SMS , was transferred to Aquaveo when it was formed in April 2007.
The latest drought, from 2020 through 2022, set a record as California’s driest three-year period on record, and state data show more than 2,600 dry wells were reported during that time.
California aquifers, excerpted from map in Ground Water Atlas of the United States (USGS, 2000): Lavender is "other" for "rocks that generally yield less than 10 gal/min to wells"; dark green-blue (3) are the California coastal basin aquifers, bright-turquoise blue (7) is the Central Valley aquifer system, flat cobalt-blue (1) down south is Basin and Range aquifers
California passed its landmark groundwater law in 2014. The goals of sustainable management remain a long way off. Despite California groundwater law, aquifers keep dropping in a 'race to the bottom'
