North SJ Water Conservation District South System Meeting
The North San Joaquin Water Conservation District is holding a special board meeting on Friday March 18th at 2pm at the Lodi Policy Dept. Community Room at 215 W. Elm, Lodi to discuss potential water deliveries along the District’s south system for 2016.
Discussions will include the 2016 water rate and how to operate the South System efficiently to deliver surface water. It is critical that those landowners interested in receiving water attend this meeting to gather information about acreages, flow rates, schedules, etc.
Groundwater levels in this area are at all-time lows. Interested growers along the south system should attend to learn how they can maximize the use of surface water. Growers that cannot make the meeting but are still interested, please contact Jennifer Spaletta, NSJWCD General Counsel at (209)224-5568 or the district engineer Walt Sadler at (916)213-2300.

This briefing will provide you with information on what forms are acceptable when trying to establish identity for employees whether U.S. citizens or non U.S. citizens, acceptable procedures for storing those old forms, and what to do when those unforeseen situations may arise.
