Surface Water Used for Groundwater Recharge
The amount of surface water available for recharge is largely related to the water year type as defined in the Water Forum Agreement. Because 2013 through 2015 were among the driest ever recorded years, the amount of surface water that was used for recharge was limited to those volumes taken by Sacramento Suburban Water District, which were 409 acre-feet in 2013 and 80 acre-feet in 2015.
