Subject: Wyandotte Creek Draft Groundwater Sustainability Plan
Dear Board Members,
Toward the end of September I emailed you regarding the release of draft Groundwater
Sustainability Plans for the Vina, Butte and Wyandotte Creek Subbasins. At the time, the Wyandotte
Creek Comment Period Hand Out was not available. As a follow up to my earlier email, attached is
the information regarding the Wyandotte Creek GSP and comment period, which ends October 24,
2021.
I’ve also attached again the overall schedule for GSP Adoption in the three subbasins for your
reference.
Best,
Christina

Subject: Draft Groundwater Sustainability Plans Available for Public Review
Dear Board Members,
We have reached an important milestone in development of Groundwater Sustainability Plans (GSP)
in the three subbasins located in Butte County. All three draft GSPs are now out for a public review
and comment period. Please find attached a handout for the Vina and Butte Subbasins describing
details of the comment period and public workshops. Once available, I will send a similar handout for
Wyandotte Creek. Also attached is a flier that has the important dates between now and GSP
adoption for all three subbasins.
We are providing hard copies of the Butte Subbasin draft GSP to each of you since Butte County is a
GSA in the Butte Subbasin. GSA Board members and alternates, as well as Advisory Committee
members in the Vina and Wyandotte Creek subbasins are receiving hard copies of those draft GSPs
to ease the review of these large documents. We are also placing a public review copy of all three
draft GSPs in the Oroville, Durham, Chico and Gridley libraries.
For the Butte Subbasin, the Butte County Technical Advisory Committee will be discussing the draft
GSP at their meeting tomorrow, September 23, 2021 at 9:00 a.m. (Meeting Details:
https://www.buttecounty.net/waterresourceconservation/Water-Commission/Technical-Advisory-
Committee/2021TAC). The Butte County Water Commission will also discuss the Butte Subbasin GSP
at their next meeting on October 6, 2021 at 1:30 p.m. and possibly provide a recommendation to the
Butte County Board of Supervisors for your consideration. Your Board will receive an overview
presentation on October 26, 2021. Other GSAs in the Butte subbasin will also be receiving a
presentation on the Butte subbasin GSP during the month of October. Once the Public Comment
Period ends (October 31, 2021), public comments and input from GSAs will be discussed by the
Butte Subbasin Advisory Board on November 18, 2021 at 1:00 p.m. All GSA Boards are scheduled to
consider adoption of the GSP in December 2021.
We are publicizing the release of these draft plans through our website and email list serves and
working with our sister member agencies in all three subbasins to push the information out to a
broad audience through each of our respective communication channels.
Best,
Christina
