What happens if Kings River East GSA does not collect sufficient money to cover administration and GSP development costs?

If a GSA does not demonstrate to the state that it will adequately fund the efforts to become sustainable then a basin may be deemed probationary as soon as 2025 and the State Water Resources Control could levee penalties such as a well fee, $100 per well, and groundwater pumping charge, $40 per acre-foot. In addition to these charges, State Water Resources Control Board will mandate meters on all wells, a cost borne solely by the landowner.
