Basin 8-1 Overview <br />o South East El La Habra SAR Canyon OCWD <br />89% <br />Figure 1-2: Percentage of Land Area in Basin 8-1 within Management Areas <br />1. LA HABRA-BREA MANAGEMENT AREA <br />The La Habra -Brea Management area covers the northern portion of Basin 8-1. The City of La <br />Habra has been deemed the exclusive GSA under SGMA for this management area. This <br />management area is part of Basin 8-1, but is hydrogeologically distinct from the OCWD <br />Management Area and is not under the jurisdiction of OCWD. The City adopted a resolution to <br />establish the La Habra Basin as a separate basin from Basin 8-1. OCWD adopted a resolution <br />to support the City's request to DWR for an internal jurisdictional boundary modification in the <br />OC Basin that follows the city limits of La Habra and Brea as is outside of the Orange County <br />Water District's jurisdictional boundary. <br />The La Habra -Brea Management Area is included with this Alternative to facilitate collaboration <br />among groundwater agencies within Basin 8-1 as required by SGMA. The City of La Habra and <br />portions of the City of Brea comprise the La Habra -Brea Management Area. This area overlies <br />the extents of the proposed La Habra Groundwater Basin, referenced herein. <br />The La Habra -Brea Management Area is currently monitored for groundwater elevations and for <br />groundwater quality through productions wells and historical data from monitoring wells within <br />the La Habra -Brea Management Area and surrounding area. <br />2017 BASIN 8-1 ALTERNATIVE Overview 5
