Tule Lake Subbasin Groundwater Sustainability Plan
MBK Engineers (MBK) | December 14th, 2021
On September 16, 2014, Governor Jerry Brown signed into law a three-bill legislative package,
composed of Assembly Bill (AB) 1739 (Dickinson), Senate Bill (SB) 1168 (Pavley), and SB 1319 (Pavley),
collectively known as the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), which is codified in
Section 10720 et seq. of the California Water Code. The purpose of this Groundwater Sustainability Plan
(GSP or Plan) is to bring the Klamath River Valley – Tule Lake Subbasin (Tule Lake Subbasin or Subbasin),
a medium priority basin, into sustainable groundwater management by 2042, which would meet the
requirements of SGMA.
