Notice of Preparation - Groundwater Sustainability Plan

You are receiving this notice because San Luis Obispo County assessor records show that you own property that overlies the Atascadero Groundwater Basin.

The County of San Luis Obispo, Cities of Atascadero and Paso Robles, Templeton Community Services District, Atascadero Mutual Water Company, and other entities have formed a Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) for the Atascadero Basin in accordance with the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA).  The purpose of the agency is to develop a SGMA-compliant Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) for the basin.

We invite you to participate in the process of developing the Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GPS) for the Atascadero Basin.

• Attend meetings.  Preparation of the GSP has begun, and your input during the GSP development process is essential.  The GSA is governed by an Executive Committee that meets quarterly.  Meetings are held in the board room of Templeton Community Service District.  The new meeting is July 10, 2019.

• Resister as an interested party.  For information regarding SGMA efforts, or to receive emails about SGMA compliance in the Atascadero Basin, or comment on the draft sections of the GSP, please visit the website WWW.AtascaderoBasin.com and register as an interested party.
