MLRP - Section 21 Recharge Project

The Section 21 Recharge Project is a multi-purpose groundwater recharge initiative managed by the Westlands Water District in Huron, California. The project aims to expand the district's capacity to improve local aquifers and support the sustainability objectives of the Westside Subbasin Groundwater Sustainability Plan. By increasing the available land for managed groundwater recharge, the project enables the region to capture and store excess surface water and flood flows during wet years through the use of percolation basins. This opportunity is currently listed as a forecast with a posted date of August 18, 2026. Primary administrative contact for the project is Stephen Farmer, the Chief Administrative Officer, and Gary Coelho is listed as the owner.
