Full Description

Lunch-MAR: Introducing DWR’s Basin Characterization Program (co-hosted by the Basin Characterization Exchange)

The Basin Characterization (BC) Program builds off of DWR’s historic role of characterizing groundwater basins and publishing California’s Groundwater. The BC Program will provide the latest data, tools, and information about California’s groundwater aquifers, a critical component to California’s natural infrastructure . Under the Basin Characterization Program, DWR will conduct a series of Local and Regional Groundwater Evaluations, develop data analysis tools and process documents, ensure data accessibility and visualization, and create state-stewarded maps and models. State-stewarded maps and models will include aquifer recharge potential maps, texture models, and hydrostratigraphic models. DWR’s presentation will provide an overview of the BC Program and will also serve as the launch of the Basin Characterization Exchange (BCX), the BC Program’s meeting series and networking space.
