  5. The original GSA boundary, submitted in a letter to DWR dated August 11, 2015, was defined as the DWR Bulletin 118 groundwater basins within the YWA service area. DWR, through the basin boundary modification process, changed the boundaries of the South Yuba Subbasin. This May 2017 modification is submitted to allow the GSA boundary to continue to meet the original intent of covering the DWR Bulletin 118 groundwater basins within the YWA service area. The action taken by YWA is not a material change to the original notice and filing. Similarly, this April 2019 modification is submitted to allow the GSA boundary to continue to meet the original intent of covering the DWR Bulletin 118 groundwater basins within the YWA service area, as recent basin boundary modifications have occurred. The action taken by YWA is not a material change to the original notice and filing.
