Well Aware Program

About Well Aware

Funded by a grant from the California Department of Water Resources, the GSAs have created the Well Aware Program to connect well users with practical tools and resources to help with groundwater management and sustainability. Water use efficiency is an important part of our plan to protect our basin, and it relies on users like you being thoughtful about how they use water.  We aren’t asking you to cut your water use, but to only use what you need and help avoid waste. Through our trusted partners we are able to offer water saving tools available to all well users, rural residents, small and large farms, vineyards, wineries, and businesses.

The Well Aware Program is a free, voluntary program for well owners and groundwater users located in the Petaluma Valley basin, Santa Rosa Plain subbasin, and Sonoma Valley subbasin.
