South-System ground water overdraft

By Lawrence A. "Larry" Prather

Candidate for Director; San Lorenzo Valley Water District

This information is provided by the candidate
I support the north-south inter-tie, we must have an environmentally responsible, regional approach to solving the groundwater overdraft.
An important infrastructure improvement is underway to ease our depleted wells in the "south system". In the coming months, a north-south inter-tie pipeline is being planned that will allow the district to rest the probation wells in the rainy season while surface water is abundant, allowing natural recharge of the groundwater basin. I support this important water management tool because I believe that we must have an environmentally responsible, regional approach to solving this water crisis.
