26 polygons anchored by 31 RMS wells (13 North,
6 Chico — CWSCH01b/02/03/07 and the shallow wells CMW-102A and SWMW-06A,
added at the Nov 4, 2026 joint Board meeting — plus 6 supplemental nested
completions in Chico shown for hydrograph context, 12 South). The Chico polygon
is the dissolved Chico management area — a single fixed boundary
regardless of how many RMS wells are assigned to it.
Three of the 13 North RMS wells physically sit inside the Chico mgmt
area but their Thiessen cells are clipped to N proper (no overlap).

5.3 Polygon Hydrograph & Well Detail
For the selected polygon, this view plots groundwater elevation traces
for every well (RMS or supplemental) that falls inside the polygon
footprint. Traces show QA-Good readings only — the
same convention as the GSA consultant hydrographs and the strawman's
SMC method ("excluding questionable measurements"). One flagged
exception: at 22N01W05M001M, manual measurements lapsed 2005–2019
while the county operated a continuous recorder there, so a dotted
recorder-derived series bridges that gap using each month's
highest recorder reading (a static-level proxy; the DWR dataset grades
recorder readings questionable as a class). It is display-only and
excluded from every statistic on this page.
MT / MO / IM-2027 threshold lines are shown for every 2027
RMS well — dashed where the 2022 GSP values carried forward, dotted
where values are proposed (Aug 12, 2026 joint Board packet, Attachment B,
Alternative 1; draft amended GSP, Table 3-1, at CMW-102A and SWMW-06A).
Water levels at CMW-102A and SWMW-06A come from DTSC monitoring reports,
which give no DWR grade. The 25 North and South RMS wells
additionally get a
proposed LML line
driven by the slider below.

Domestic-well sensitivity to MT
Of the 1,253 domestic wells in the LWA inventory, how many sit at
an elevation that would make them "dry" if water levels fell to MT —
and how that count changes if MT were raised. Toggle elevation
correction (above) for the one-sided foothill adjustment.
Dry = the well's bottom elevation (AMSL) sits above
the threshold; if the basin's water level fell to the threshold, the
well would have no water to pump.

Same-month paired groundwater elevations (RMS well on x, comparison well
on y) with a 1:1 reference line. Pearson R² and n are shown in the
legend when at least 5 paired readings are available.
