About this statute
Local custom is only one factor in judging the reasonableness of a water use, method of use, or diversion; it cannot by itself decide the issue. This section says the coordinated state water conservation, development, and utilization plan is called the “State Water Plan.” The American River Development is included in the State Water Plan. The State may not issue a water appropriation permit for a project that would flood any part of Gold Discovery Site State Park at Coloma unless the issuance is specifically authorized by law. This section gives the Georgetown Divide Public Utility District rights to pursue a federal permit and license, limits water-rights filings and permits for certain South Fork of the American River projects for set periods, and requires some applicants to evaluate alternatives or replace lost uses.

(a) Monitoring entities shall commence monitoring and reporting groundwater elevations pursuant to this part on or before January 1, 2012. (b) For purposes of reporting groundwater elevations pursuant to this part, and subject to subdivision (c), a monitoring entity may use alternate monitoring techniques for a basin or subbasin, instead of monitoring groundwater elevations directly through monitoring wells, if the basin or subbasin meets any of the following conditions: (1) Groundwater elevations are unaffected by land use activities or planned land use activities, or naturally occurring total dissolved solids within the groundwater preclude the use of that water. (2) It is underlying land that is wholly owned or controlled, individually or collectively, by state, tribal, or federal authorities, and groundwater monitoring information is not available or was requested from, but not provided by, the state, tribal, or federal authorities. (3) It is underlying an area where geographic or geologic features make monitoring impracticable, including, but not limited to, a basin or subbasin that is inaccessible to well-drilling equipment. (c) Before using an alternate monitoring technique pursuant to subdivision (b), a monitoring entity shall submit to the department a report, signed by a professional geologist registered pursuant to Section 7850 of the Business and Professions Code, setting forth the factual basis and supporting documentation demonstrating that the basin or subbasin meets any of the conditions set forth in subdivision (b). Upon receiving the report, the department shall determine, in its discretion, whether the monitoring entity may use an alternate monitoring technique, and the alternate monitoring techniques that may be used, for the basin or subbasin. For a basin or subbasin that the department has determined is eligible to use an alternate monitoring technique, the department shall determine whether information provided by the monitoring entity using the alternate monitoring technique is sufficient to comply with the monitoring and reporting requirements of subdivision (a). (d) (1) Within 60 days of finding that a basin or subbasin no longer meets any of the conditions set forth in subdivision (b), the monitoring entity shall report that finding to the department. Not later than 12 months after providing that report, the monitoring entity shall commence monitoring and reporting groundwater elevations using monitoring wells. (2) A failure to comply with the report requirements of paragraph (1) shall constitute noncompliance with the monitoring and reporting requirements of subdivision (a). (e) Every three years following an initial determination by the department pursuant to subdivision (c), a monitoring entity shall submit sufficient information, as may be determined by the department, establishing its continued eligibility to use alternate monitoring techniques in accordance with this section. (f) A determination by the department pursuant to this section shall be final and conclusive. (g) For purposes of this section, an “alternate monitoring technique” may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the following, as the department may determine to be appropriate: (1) Hydrologic records for the basin or subbasin. (2) Well permits or similar reports from within the area overlying the basin or subbasin. (3) Aerial photographs. (4) Remote sensing data. (Amended by Stats. 2011, Ch. 280, Sec. 2.

(b) Any party aggrieved by any decision or order may, not later than 30 days from the date of final action by the board, file a petition for a writ of mandate for review of the decision or order. Except in cases where the decision or order is issued under authority delegated to an officer or employee of the board, reconsideration before the board is not an administrative remedy that is required to be exhausted before filing a petition for writ of mandate.
