The Fox Canyon Groundwater Management Agency (FCGMA) is the groundwater sustainability agency for the Las Posas Valley Basin, the Pleasant Valley Basin, and the Oxnard Subbasin, and acts as watermaster for the Las Posas Valley Basin. FCGMA is an independent special district, separate from the County of Ventura or any city government, created by the California Legislature in 1982 to oversee Ventura County’s groundwater resources.
The Sustainable Groundwater Management Act requires a periodic evaluation of groundwater sustainability plans at least once every 5 years (Periodic Evaluations). Current draft Periodic Evaluations for the Oxnard Subbasin, Pleasant Valley Basin and the Las Posas Valley Basin are available for review at the following link: Periodic Evaluation Drafts & Comments.
The draft Periodic Evaluations will be discussed and considered for adoption at the upcoming December 13, 2024 FCGMA Board of Directors special meeting.
Semi-annual extraction statements (SAES) for the 2024-2 reporting period for the Oxnard and Pleasant Valley basins (OPV) have been released and are available online. Click here for more information about SAES reporting.
