Advancing Sustainable Groundwater Management for California

Sustainable groundwater management means managing this resource to balance short-term and long-term benefits for society, the economy and our environment. To help ensure that the needs and benefits of managing for GDEs are known, The Nature Conservancy is working with its partners to develop the science on nature’s ties to groundwater and showcase multi-benefit management strategies for nature and people.
