Snow surveys are the key to maximize every drop of water for people, farms, environment, and our groundwater aquifer.
Check out our StoryMap to learn more about how complementary snow survey methods can tackle 21st century water management challenges like climate change, tightening constraints from diverse users, and groundwater restrictions under CA’s Sustainable Groundwater Management Act.
As you are aware, the COVID-19 virus has created a significant health and safety concern. KRCD is doing our part to help reduce the spread of COVID-19 to protect staff, their family and the general public, while remaining open to maintain essential services.
