What is the California Groundwater Coalition?
CGC is a 2007 education and legislative advocacy campaign of the Groundwater Resources Association of California (GRA), Association of Groundwater Agencies (AGWT) and American Ground Water Trust (AGWT). CGC was formed at the urging of California state and local elected officials who believe that increased efforts are needed to educate and inform California legislators and policy makers about California groundwater issues and the role it can play in providing a safe and reliable, sustainable water supply for California. The need for better understanding became clear in 2006 when efforts failed to place a legislative water bond on the November ballot.
