Bulletin 118 defines the recognized groundwater basins and subbasins throughout the State of California. The Bulletin 118 document provides information on these basins/subbasins and the nature and extent of groundwater occurrence and management within the State. The Bulletin 118 dataset makes the geographic locations and extent of the 515 basins/subbasins publicly available, for use in external mapping/GIS applications.
The associated data are considered DWR enterprise GIS data, which meet all appropriate requirements of the DWR GIS Spatial Data Standards version 3.4, dated September 14, 2022. DWR makes no warranties or guarantees, either expressed or implied, as to the completeness, accuracy or correctness of the data, nor accepts or assumes any liability arising from or for any incorrect, incomplete or misleading subject data.

<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>The dataset is a feature class showing the boundaries of 515 groundwater basins and subbasins as defined by the California Department of Water Resources as last modified by the Basin Boundary Emergency Regulation adopted on October 21, 2015 and subsequent modifications requested through the Basin Boundary Modification Request Process. This data is current as of December 9, 2022. The file is in ESRI geodatabase format and is intended for use with compatible GIS software. Groundwater basins are represented as polygon features and designated on the basis of geological and hydrological conditions - usually the occurrence of alluvial or unconsolidated deposits. When practical, large basins are also subdivided by political boundaries, as in the Central Valley. Basins are named and numbered per the convention of the Department of Water Resources. </SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |

This disclaimer applies to use of the information alone and to its aggregate use with other information, data or programs. The information contained in each of the basin descriptions at this site was obtained from information on file in the offices of the Department of Water Resources and limited additional information. Recent studies may contain additional, more up-to-date information. To obtain the most up-to-date information about the basin you are interested in, please contact the local management agency listed near the end of the basin description. The State of California and the Department of Water Resources hereby specifically retain any intellectual property interest, including copyright, that they may hold in the information provided, whether the information is in the form of data, files, text images, photography or maps. The Department requests that persons receiving and using this information not make it available to others for their re-use. Instead, interested third parties should be encouraged to contact the Department for copies, in order to ensure that the information is obtained from the source that developed it, that can provide the greatest degree of reliability. Caution: It is possible to plot part or the entire map at a scale that exceeds the 1:250,000 resolution of the map. However, the groundwater basin data can be no more accurate than the 1:250,000 resolution base map on which it was plotted.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
