Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Map No. 76; Conditional Use Permit No. 3, Map No. 77

The State Water Resources Control Board has approved a project for the operation of a new public water system at the Buttonwillow Raceway Park Circuit, located at 24551 Lerdo Highway, Buttonwillow, California, in Kern County. This project, associated with Conditional Use Permit No. 2, Map No. 76 and Conditional Use Permit No. 3, Map No. 77, involves the utilization of an existing well, designated as Well 01, and a water storage tank. The establishment of this new domestic water supply permit was necessitated by a change in the water supply source on the property. The project is governed by the California Code of Regulations, specifically Title 14, Division 6, Chapter 3, Article 11, Section 11564. An Addendum to the Mitigated Negative Declaration concluded that the modifications to the water source do not result in new or more severe environmental impacts, remaining within the scope of the original 2017 environmental analysis. Consequently, the State Water Resources Control Board determined the project would not have significant environmental effects, and no additional mitigation measures or monitoring plans were imposed. The project received official approval on January 23, 2026.
