Title: San Joaquin River Restoration Program Seepage Management Actions
Site: www.restoresjr.net
Summary: The Bureau of Reclamation, San Joaquin River Restoration Program (SJRRP), proposes to implement seepage management actions along the river associated with the release of Restoration Flows. Based on landowner input, seepage management actions currently being evaluated include the purchase of easements allowing for higher groundwater tables underneath crops as a result of the release of Restoration Flows or purchase of land affected by groundwater seepage on a willing seller basis. The release of Restoration Flows is required in the San Joaquin River Restoration Settlement Act, Public Law 111-11 (Act) and the Stipulation of Settlement of the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC), et al., v. Kirk Rodgers, et al. (Settlement), and was addressed in the 2012 SJRRP Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement / Report (PEIS/R) and Record of Decision.
