Farmers Water District Stream Gage Project

The Farmers Water District Stream Gage Project is a forecast initiative focused on upgrading the existing stream gage network within the approved Delta-Mendota Groundwater Subbasin to enhance water resource monitoring. Located in Fresno County, California, the project involves the installation of two stream gaging stations along the San Joaquin River to replace inactive gages. These stations will utilize automated logging equipment attached to existing infrastructure to collect critical data, including surface water levels, temperature, and water quality via electrical conductivity. The project is managed by the Farmers Water District and is categorized under NAICS code 541360. It has been certified as categorically exempt from environmental review under California Environmental Quality Act sections 15301 and 15306, as the work consists of existing facility maintenance and data collection without significant environmental disturbance. While the project is listed as a forecast with a posted date of October 22, 2025, specific contract values, delivery schedules, and evaluation factors have not yet been defined.
