AGSA Eligibility Determination

Provide a description of your local agency's water supply, water management, or land use responsibilities within the groundwater basin / basins you intend to manage.
Lassen County is a local public agency organized as a general law County under the State Constitution and has land use responsibility for the area of the subbasin proposed to be managed under this GSA. Lassen County manages groundwater through the following: 1. In 1999 the Lassen County Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance Number 539 (codified at Chapter 17.01 of County Code), requiring a permit to export any groundwater from Lassen County. 2. In 2007, the Lassen County Board of Supervisors adopted a Groundwater Management Plan; as authorized by California Water Code Section 10753(a). 3. In 2012 the Lassen County Board of Supervisors adopted Ordinance Number 2012-001 (codified at Chapter 17.02 of County Code), which in part adopts a basin management objective program to facilitate the understanding and public dissemination of groundwater information in Lassen County. 4. In December of 2015, the Lassen County Board of Supervisors adopted the Groundwater Monitoring Plan for Lassen County, which was in turn approved by the Department of Water Resources, making Lassen County the designated monitoring entity pursuant to the California Statewide Groundwater Elevation Monitoring (CASGEM) program.
