California is awarding $35 million to help adapt agricultural land to curb groundwater overuse.

This funding will help improve the health of groundwater basins while benefiting local communities, water supplies, and habitats.

[California Department of Conservation @CalConservation]

Today, CalConservation’s Multibenefit Land Repurposing Program awarded $35 million to regions adapting land use to improve the sustainability of groundwater basins in Santa Cruz, Merced, Stanislaus, Kings, San Benito, Monterey, and Fresno counties.

KQED reports on new science about flooding along CA's San Joaquin River becoming more severe by mid-century. The solution is to expand and restore floodplains to accommodate higher flows, which has other benefits like restoring wildlife habitat and more. https://t.co/FwPvTQBm3S
