The multi-decades efforts by DWR and USBR to squeeze ever more water from the streams and groundwater basins of the Sacramento Valley are repeating the destructive patterns in the Owens and San Joaquin valleys. SGMA is a ruse that provides cover for privatization of the Tuscan Aquifer.

In the N Sacramento Valley the Vina GW Sustainability Plan ignored concerns from domestic well owners and environmentalists that the "operating range" of the Tuscan Aquifer would dewater streams, wells and tree root zones. The range is a prescription for private artificial recharge water banking.
