On behalf of Kern Delta Water District, we would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year!
The District is pleased to announce that our website has now gone live. The new website offers an assortment of information regarding District programs and policies to better serve our growers and community. It can be viewed at www.kerndelta.org.
Annual District Water Application forms were mailed out right after Christmas. All are encouraged to review and return the updated forms as soon as possible.
At the December 5th Kern River Groundwater Sustainability Agency (KRGSA) meeting a public hearing was held and the KRGSA Groundwater Sustainability Plan was adopted. A copy of that draft plan can be viewed here.
With the upcoming holidays the District Office will be closed from time to time. The office will be closing at noon on December 24. The offices will be closed all day on December 25th and January 1st.
All District systems have been shut down for annual routine maintenance. During this maintenance period Operations staff will be in the field.

The front office staff will still be reachable at (661) 834-4656 during normal business hours. Some District facilities will begin service again on or about January 2nd.
