The SGMA Weekly · Jun 29, 2026 · Friant-Kern's $200M Hits the Ground

After years of slow restoration, federal dollars are about to meet dirt on the Friant-Kern Canal. This week's SGMA Weekly covers four Must Knows and three Trends from the past week of California water-agency board action. In this episode: • Friant Water Authority locks in a real groundbreaking date for the $200M Friant-Kern Canal subsidence fix — Phase 2A bid period July–August, October construction start, formal groundbreaking the week of August 17 • Five districts update their long-range water outlooks — the coast comes in flush (Carpinteria selling $840K of surplus state water with Cachuma at 94%, Amador with a 10–12K AF surplus), the valley sharpens (SSJID facing up to 26% dry-year shortfalls, San Benito's 2045 deficit driven by water quality not supply) • Cross Valley Canal expansion comes down to a tough choice — a parallel canal that keeps 500 CFS flowing during construction, or a widened channel that demands a 140-day shutdown • Golden mussel response moves from emergency awareness to month-by-month operations across the connected canals — Dudek evaluating chlorine dioxide and sodium hypochlorite for the Cross Valley Canal Plus three Trends: 2027 demand-management triggers getting drafted (Colusa, Arroyo Seco, Vina each picking their own logic), GSP five-year periodic evaluations opening public comment windows this summer, and Kern locking in dedicated capital funds for its 50-year-old conveyance assets.

aflevering Subsidence Goalposts, Sites Reservoir at $1.36B, $200K Basin Fee — Jun 22, 2026 artwork

Subsidence Goalposts, Sites Reservoir at $1.36B, $200K Basin Fee — Jun 22, 2026

This week the Department of Water Resources is treating subsidence as "irreparable harm" requiring immediate action — a stance shift surfaced at three different boards this week (Chowchilla, North Kern, Omochumne Hartnell). The California Water Commission lifted Sites Reservoir's conditional funding ceiling to $1.36 billion as a September water-rights decision looms. The State Water Board is floating a $200,000 application fee just to request a basin exclusion — comments due July 10. Plus: Pajaro Valley and Desert Water Agency rate decisions hitting binding action, San Antonio Basin enforcement letters going out, the Tulare Lake sub-basin consolidating to a single state liaison, federal "One Big Beautiful Bill" money landing on Delta-Mendota Canal repairs, and conjunctive-use recharge gaining momentum across three different boards.

Indian Wells Goes to Trial, Kern Tightens Subsidence Rules — Jun 15, 2026

A California court enters Phase 2 of the Indian Wells Valley safe-yield trial — testing how a court-adjudicated number will line up against a GSA's SGMA sustainable-yield. Kern Subbasin moves to a stricter "critical head" subsidence standard tied to DWR's January 2026 BMPs. Plus: Tule advances a 20-year land repurposing program, Salinas weighs a deep-aquifer pumping moratorium, and the well-registration enforcement era gets real across multiple basins.

McMullin's $56M Vote, $176M Federal Awards, and a Brewing Aqueduct Cost Fight — Jun 8, 2026

McMullin Area GSA's Proposition 218 election just passed in a landslide to fund a $56M flood capture expansion. The Bureau of Reclamation announced $176M in fresh Aging Infrastructure awards for the Delta-Mendota Canal and O'Neill Pumping Plant, with a $37.5M Kiewit contract approved to start the first canal subsidence fix. And a federal letter to DWR just opened up the larger ~$3B California Aqueduct Subsidence Program cost-share fight. Plus: White Wolf sharpens subsidence rules along the Aqueduct, Salinas Valley faces an August DWR deadline on a controversial brackish project, snowpack collapses to 6% of normal, and federal grant paperwork lags the cash.
