About

Kings Basin Water Authority

Solutions to our water supply and water quality problems require collaboration and balanced solutions.

A number of local agencies and organizations have been working over the past several years creating a coalition of water agencies, cities, counties and environmental interests in the Kings Subbasin to deal with the most pressing local water issues, namely groundwater depletion, supply reliability and quality. Since the early 2000s, the Kings Basin Water Authority has received over $70 million in state and private financial support for use toward planning activities and to construct projects that address groundwater, water conservation and efficiency, water quality, riparian habitat, flood corridors, and disadvantaged communities. The projects are located throughout the basin.
