SGMA Survival event in Exeter looks to help farmers prep for 2020

The SGMA Survival Tool Kit event – hosted by Water Wrights, Fresno State’s Water Energy and Technology Center, and the Tulare County Farm Bureau – is being held at the Exeter Memorial Building on Thursday, from 3 to 6 p.m.

As farmers and water users continue to worry about California’s Sustainable Groundwater Management Act, a marquee law that will significantly alter the use of groundwater pumping – especially amongst farmers – an event on Thursday aims to help clarify and assist with preparation before the law begins to go into effect.
