Steps to review groundwater information 1. Determine whether or not your property is located in the Santa Rosa Plain basin:

  • Visit this interactive map: http://bit.ly/SRPInteractiveMap
  • Enter the APN or address of parcel into the search bar at the top left of the map.
  • If your property intersects with the blue area, your property is included in the Santa Rosa

Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency (SRP GSA) jurisdiction.

  • If no portion of your property intersects with the blue area, your property is NOT included

in the Santa Rosa Plain Groundwater Sustainability Agency (SRP GSA) jurisdiction.

Outside of SRPGSA jurisdiction Within SRPGSA jurisdiction
