This technical memo estimates the maximum recharge possible through canal seepage, recharge basins, and on-farm recharge across the Consolidated Water District’s roughly 80,000 acres in the Greater Kaweah GSA. It introduces RapidGRAT, a faster, simplified version of the Groundwater Recharge Assessment Tool (GRAT) that shows districts what they could achieve in a wet year like 2023. The method is designed as a template for other basins across California.
