I am pleased that Governor Jerry Brown signed into law legislation imposing crucial new regulations regarding groundwater pumping. These bills will empower local agencies with the ability to manage groundwater pumping, shutdown harmful wells, and impose fines for failing to allow inspections. With our state mired in a drought crisis, groundwater accounts for almost 60 percent of all fresh water consumed. If we allow this precious resource to be completely drained, it will devastate California’s communities, economy, and environment. The legislation signed into law today gives the state a crucial tool to ensure a long-term adequate water supply.
