Document Description
The objective of the Apex Ranch Groundwater Project (Project) is to develop additional local water supplies for the Kings County Water District (KCWD) and City of Hanford. The Project seeks to develop a water banking program to store available Kings River flows underground for extractions at a later time. The project site is located such that the banked water can be delivered into any of the surface systems within the District allowing for banked water supplies to be delivered throughout the District. The project would increase water supply by capturing and storing surface water that would otherwise be lost from the KCWD. Water would be sold to the City of Hanford, Kings County, to alleviate current water quality problems involving high arsenic content in their present water source. Remaining water would be used for irrigation within the KCWD.
