1.0 Introduction Tulelake Subbasin DRAFT GSP Revised Public Draft February 18, 2021 1 1.0 Introduction 2 3 1.1 Purpose of the Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP or Plan) 4 On September 16, 2014, Governor Jerry Brown signed into law a three-bill legislative package, 5 composed of Assembly Bill (AB) 1739 (Dickinson), Senate Bill (SB) 1168 (Pavley), and SB 1319 6 (Pavley), collectively known as the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act (SGMA), which is 7 codified in Section 10720 et seq. of the California Water Code. The purpose of this 8 Groundwater Sustainability Plan (GSP) is to bring the Klamath River Valley – Tulelake Subbasin 9 (“Tulelake Subbasin” or “Subbasin”), a medium priority basin, into sustainable groundwater 10 management by 2042, which would meet the requirements of SGMA. A GSP is required to be 11 prepared in order to manage a medium-priority basin by January 1, 2022, and to achieve 12 sustainable groundwater management within the subbasin by 2042. Under SGMA, a GSP is 13 prepared and implemented by a Groundwater Sustainability Agency (GSA). 14 15 In SGMA, sustainable groundwater management is defined as management of groundwater 16 supplies in a manner that can be maintained in planning and implementation phases without 17 causing undesirable results. Undesirable results include significant and unreasonable chronic 18 lowering of groundwater levels, reduction of groundwater storage, seawater intrusion, 19 degraded water quality, land subsidence, and interconnected surface waters. 20 21 1.2 Sustainability Goal 22 The sustainability goal for the Tulelake Subbasin is to ensure that by 2042 the Subbasin is being 23 locally managed and operated to maintain a reliable water supply for current and future 24 beneficial uses, without causing undesirable results. More information on the Sustainability 25 Goal and the Sustainable Management Criteria for the Subbasin are located in Section XX. 26 27 1.3 Agency Information (Reg. § 354.6) 28 There are four GSAs in the Tulelake Subbasin: Tulelake Irrigation District (“TID” or “District”) 29 GSA, Modoc County GSA, Siskiyou County GSA, and City of Tulelake GSA, as shown in Figure 1-1. 30 Collectively, these four GSAs will be referred to as “GSAs”. 31 1 Tulelake Subbasin DRAFT GSP Revised Public Draft February 18, 2021 32 33 Figure 1-1.

The MOU is provided as Appendix B to this document. The 94 MOU established the Tulelake Subbasin GSP’s Core Team (Core Team), comprised of 95 representatives from each GSA and responsible for directing and coordinating the 96 development, financing, and implementation of the GSP, and satisfying the requirements of 97 SGMA. In addition, a diverse group of advisory members who were selected through an 98 application process, informed the Core Team during GSP development. The advisory members 99 consist of an environmental conservation water user, residential domestic water user, 100 agricultural groundwater/surface water user, and Oregon groundwater/surface water user. See 101 Appendix C for a list of the advisory members. 102 103 1.3.2 Legal Authority of the GSA 104 Tulelake Irrigation District, Modoc County, Siskiyou County, and the City of Tulelake are local 105 public agencies with existing statutory authorities who decided to each form a GSA. The MOU 4 Tulelake Subbasin DRAFT GSP Revised Public Draft February 18, 2021 106 (see Appendix B) between the four GSAs describes the additional authorities provided to the 107 GSAs by SGMA. In addition, the MOU memorialized the GSA’s intent to exercise their existing 108 authorities and those provided by SGMA in order to develop and implement this GSP. 109 110 1.3.3 Estimated Cost of Implementing the GSP and the GSA’s Approach to Meet Costs 111 Development of this GSP was substantially funded through a Proposition 1 Sustainable 112 Groundwater Planning Grant. The implementation of the GSP and future SGMA compliance will 113 be highly dependent upon management actions, if necessary. Costs for management actions 114 will be shared by the GSAs based on action beneficiaries. The primary ongoing cost will be for 115 GSP administration, which includes annual reports and 5 year updates. These costs will be 116 shared by the GSAs in accordance with the budget proportions outlined in the MOU. 117 Implementation of the GSP is estimated to cost between $X and $X per year. 118 119 1.4 GSP Organization 120 This GSP is organized in a manner consistent with DWR’s “Groundwater Sustainability Plan 121 (GSP) Annotated Outline”. In addition, during the preparation of this GSP, DWR’s “Preparation 122 Checklist for GSP Submittal” was utilized.

  • Upper Klamath Basin, Tule Lake Subbasin • Groundwater Basin Number: 1-2.01 • County: Modoc, Siskiyou • Surface Area: 85,930 Acres (135 Square Miles)
    North Coast Hydrologic Region California’s Groundwater Upper Klamath Groundwater Basin Bulletin 118 Upper Klamath Basin, Tule Lake Subbasin • Groundwater Basin Number: 1-2.01 • County: Modoc, Siskiyou • Surface Area: 85,930 acres (135 square miles) An important note on the status of the groundwater resources in the Tule Lake Subbasin, is that, historically, groundwater use in the basin has been relatively minor. Since about 1905, when the Bureau of Reclamation began building the Klamath Project to provide surface water to agriculture on reclaimed land in the Klamath Basin, abundant surface water supplies have been available. In the 2001 Klamath Project Operation, water requirements for two sucker fish species in the upper basin and the coho salmon in the lower basin led the USBR to reduce surface water deliveries to the farmers to 26 percent of normal. The already existing drought conditions were further exacerbated by the operational drought. In 2001, drought emergencies were declared for the Klamath Basin by the governors of both California and Oregon. Governor Davis called upon California’s legislature to fund an Emergency Well Drilling Program in the Tulelake Irrigation District (TID). The governor also requested funding for a Hydrogeologic Investigation to evaluate new and future groundwater development. The emergency measures were taken because the TID had no alternate water supply for the nearly 75,000 acres in the district and farmers were faced with economic disaster. Ten large-capacity irrigation wells were constructed within the irrigation district for the emergency program. Four of the ten wells produce 10,000 gpm and greater. The lowest yielding well produces 6,000 gpm.

  • A Habitat Management Alternative for Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge
    FARM/WETLAND ROTATIONAL MANAGEMENT - A HABITAT MANAGEMENT ALTERNATIVE FOR TULE LAKE NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE INTRODUCTION Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) is located in extreme Northern California in Modoc and Siskiyou Counties approximately 6 miles west of the town of Tulelake, California.The refuge is one of 6 refuges within the Klamath Basin NWR complex. Historic Tule Lake fluctuated widely from >100,000 acres (1890) to 53,000 acres (1846) (Abney 1964).Record highs and lows for the lake were undoubtably greater before written records were kept. High water marks on surrounding cliffs indicate levels 12 feet higher than the 1890 records (Abney 1964).These extremes of water level were the key to maintaining the high aquatic productivity of this ecosystem.The historic lake was bounded on the north and west by vast expanses of tule marshes which supported tremendous populations of colonial nesting waterbirds and summer resident and migratory waterfowl. In 1905, the states of Oregon and California ceded to the United States the lands under both Tule and Lower Klamath lakes.In that same year, the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) tiled Notice of Intention to utilize all unappropriated waters of the Klamath Basin (Pafford 1971) and ultimately the Klamath Project was approved.As part of the Klamath Project, the Clear Lake dam was completed in 19 10 and the Lost River diversion was completed in 1912. The Clear Lake dam was intended to store water in the Lost River basin for irrigation and the Lost River Diversion routed water directly to the Klamath River thus removing the major source of water to Tule Lake.As a result to these actions, Tule Lake receded in size.

  • Sources Dicken, S
    Tules By Frank A. Lang In Oregon and much of the western United States, tule is the common name for two species of emergent plants that grow in shallow water of marshes, muddy shores, and lakes. These sedges (family Cyperaceae) are named hard-stemmed (Schoenoplectus acutus var. occidentalis) and soft-stemmed (S. tabernaemontani) bulrushes. Tule, a Spanish name, is based on tollin, of Nahurtl Native American lingustic stock, meaning a rush. Older botanical literature places these bulrushes in Scirpus, a closely related genus with various species names attached. Tule, the basis of the name of the Klamath basin town of Tulelake in northern California, was named after the extensive shallow Tule Lake (not to be confused with ancient Lake Tulare in the Great Valley of California). Present-day Tule Lake is the remainder of Pluvial Lake Modoc, which filled the Klamath Basin during the Pleistocene. As climates changed, ancient Lake Modoc shrank, forming Upper and Lower Klamath Lakes and Tule Lake. Irrigation projects reduced the lakes to their present size. Oregonians are probably most familiar with the extensive marshes on the margins and in the shallows of the great interior Klamath Lakes and Marsh and Malheur lakes. The tall (three- to six-foot), round, green stems are topped with clusters of brown, seed-producing spikelets of flowers. This contrasts with the cattail (Typha latifolia, family Typhaceae), another common emergent aquatic plant with flat leaves and characteristic flower clusters at the end of a leafless round shoot. Tule bulrushes arise from an extensive rhizome system that forms vegetative mats with cattails and other graminoids (grasses and grass-like plants, including other sedges and rushes).

  • 10.0 Screening Level Determination of Chemical Contaminants in Fish Tissue in Selected Project Reservoirs
    10.0 SCREENING LEVEL DETERMINATION OF CHEMICAL CONTAMINANTS IN FISH TISSUE IN SELECTED PROJECT RESERVOIRS 10.1 DESCRIPTION AND PURPOSE Past activities in and around Lake Ewauna and other locations in Keno reservoir suggest that sediments in the reservoir may be contaminated with agricultural chemical residue, poly- chlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and trace metals including mercury. While it is unknown whether the Klamath Hydroelectric Project has contributed to the potential sources of sediment contaminants, it is possible that accumulation of potentially contaminated sediments in Project reservoirs has resulted in conditions conducive to bioaccumulation of such contaminants. Both Oregon1 and California2 have water quality standards concerning bioaccumulation of toxic substances. Therefore, the water quality agencies of both states requested that studies be done to determine whether bioaccumulation of potentially toxic contaminants was occurring. The purpose of this study was to determine if edible fish in the Project reservoirs contain unaccept- ably high residues of potentially toxic contaminants. 10.2 OBJECTIVE This study is intended to be a Tier I (screening level) study of the Project reservoirs. The primary aim of the study was to identify whether certain fish species are bioaccumulating toxic substances at levels that may adversely affect public health or wildlife via fish consumption, or be harmful to aquatic life (based on existing quality criteria/guidelines for the protection of human health, wildlife, and aquatic life). Locations were sampled where fishing is practiced, including areas where various types of fishing are conducted routinely (e.g., from a pier, from shore, or from private and commercial boats), thereby exposing a significant number of people to potentially adverse health effects.

  • Kintpuash (Captain Jack) (C
    Kintpuash (Captain Jack) (c. 1837-1873) By Boyd Cothran Kintpuash (Strikes the Water Brashly), also known as Captain Jack and Kientpoos, was a principal headman of the Modoc tribe during the 1860s and early 1870s. He rose to national prominence during the Modoc War of 1872-1873. Leading a coalition of Modoc bands in a war of resistance against U.S. Army forces and local militia, he held off a numerically superior force for several months. Kintpuash was hanged by the army at Fort Klamath in southeastern Oregon with three other Modoc leaders on October 3, 1873. He was the only Native American leader to be tried and convicted as a war criminal. And his life highlights many of the central conflicts over emerging federal reservation policies, the continuing practice of forced removals, and the war aims of the federal government, local citizens, and Native groups in the post-Civil War era. Born in about 1837 in a village along the Lost River in the Modocs' ancestral territory in what is today Oregon, Kintpuash was among the Modoc signatories to the 1864 treaty with the Klamath, the Modoc, the Yahooskin Paiute, and the United States. Under the terms of the treaty, the Modoc people were to relocate to the Klamath Reservation. Kintpuash initially complied with the terms of the treaty, but he later repudiated it when he found conditions on the reservation intolerable and the government unwilling to address the Modocs’ grievances. In April 1870, Kintpuash and his followers returned to their villages along the Lost River. Back in his homeland, Kintpuash lived near his white neighbors.

In spite of my explanation about wild fish vs. hatchery-raised fish, he was confused. Although ultimately, he understood this, when his dad caught a wild steelhead and he had to release it, as well. Both of my grandsons insisted on taking a picture of us with my fish. These moments in the field with our families and friends are the most precious of memories that I hope to continue to have for several decades as a mentor of anglers and hunters, demonstrating “how to harvest” and more importantly how to responsibly interact with wildlife.
