The Santa Rosa Plain Valley Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA) board is seeking to fill one Agriculture Interest seat on the Santa Rosa Plain GSA Advisory Committee. All persons working in or with an interest in the agricultural sector in Santa Rosa Plain are urged to apply. The Advisory Committee provides input and feedback on policies, programs and projects to the Board of the Santa Rosa Plain GSA. This agency was formed to meet the requirements of California’s historic Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), which went into effect in 2015.
The Santa Rosa Plain GSA Advisory Committee consists of 18 members, eleven of which are appointed by the Santa Rosa Plain GSA board. This Agriculture Interest seat appointment is intended to serve the term beginning January 1, 2025 and ending December 31, 2026, with the option to apply for additional terms.
The Advisory Committee meets quarterly for two to three hours. Advisory Committee members should expect to spend several hours reading materials and preparing for meetings. Strong consideration will be given to candidates who have the backing of multiple organizations or individuals within their interest group.
The deadline for submitting applications is December 6, 2024. Additional information and the application for the Santa Rosa Plain GSA Advisory Committee application at https://santarosaplaingroundwater.org/ac/
