Over 600,000 Californians rely on nitrate-contaminated public supply wells for their household water needs. Many others struggle with contaminated groundwater from private, domestic wells – so the numbers are even greater. Recharging groundwater with water quality as a top priority will help the San Joaquin Valley – our nation’s premier farming region – manage through […]
A Vital Resource California’s groundwater – a critical resource in times of drought – is disappearing faster than we’re replenishing it.

To address groundwater reliability, […]
