SB 213 - "Flint River Drought Protection Act"; clarify legislative intent; revise definitions; expand programs
- BILL SUMMARY: Section 1 The 'Flint River Drought Protection Act' is amended by revising subsection (b) of Code Section 12-5-541 regarding legislative intent as follows: The use of water resources for the state for agricultural purposes is of vital importance to the state and southwest Georgia in particular. The protection of flows in the Flint River and its tributaries is necessary for healthy riverine ecosystems and health aquatic life. The use of water resources during drought conditions may interfere with public and private rights. The economic well-being of the State of Georgia is dependent on a strong and efficient agricultural industry, the wise use of water, the protection of stream flows, and the economic well-being of the state will be furthered by proper water allocation in periods of drought; programs to augment stream flows or provide incentives to ensure a certain irrigated lands are temporarily not irrigated during severe droughts will promote the wise use of water resources and the protection of stream flows for habitat critical for aquatic life and the economic well-being of the state. Section 2 Code Section 12-5-542 is amended and provides definitions relative to Flint River drought protection: (1) `Acceptable Flint River basin stream flows' means the quantity of stream flows at one or more specific locations on the Flint River or its tributaries which provides for aquatic life protection and other needs as established by the director, based on municipal, agricultural, industrial and environmental needs. Such tributaries shall not include field drainage systems, wet weather ditches, or any other water body; (A) In which the channel is located above ground-water table year round; (B) For which runoff from precipitation is the primary source of water flow; and C) For which ground water is not a source of water flow. (2) `Affected areas' means those specific portions of the state lying within the Flint River basin where ground water use from the Floridian aquifer can affect stream flow or where drainage into Spring Creek, Ichawaynochaway Creek, Kinchafoonee Creek, and Muckalee Creek occurs. (2.1) `Augumentation' means the addition of ground water from one or more aquifers underlying the affected areas into a surface water channel within the affected areas for the purpose of maintaining instream flows. (3) `Authority' means the Georgia Environmental Finance Authority (created by Chapter 23 of Title 50). (4) `Board' means the Board of the Department of Natural Resources. (5) `Director' means the director of the Environmental Protection Division of the Department of Natural Resources. (6) `Division' means the Environmental Protection Division of the Department of Natural Resources. (7) `Drought conditions' means any conditions which results in a stream flow that is lower than the acceptable Flint River basin stream flows. (8) `Drought protection funds' means the funds held by GEFA as provided in Code Section 12-5-545 for the accomplishment of the purposes of this article. (9) `Flint River basin' means the area of land which drains into the Flint River or its tributaries. (10) `Floridian aquifer' means those rocks and sediments described in United States Geological Survey Open-File Report 95321 (1996) that are capable of yielding ground water to wells or discharging water into the Flint River or its tributaries. (11) `Irrigated land' means farm land which is irrigated by the ground water or surface water pursuant to a water withdrawal permit issued by the Director of EPD pursuant to Code Section 12-5-31 or 12-5-96. (11.1) `Irrigation efficiency' means the percentage of the total amount of water withdrawn from a source which is beneficially used to meet crop water requirements or for argonomic practices in accordance with applicable best management practices. (12) `Irrigation reduction auction' means the procedure established by subsection (b) of Code Section 12-5-546 pursuant to which permittees submit offers to cease irrigation of a specified number of acres in exchange for certain sum of money. (13) `Permittee' means a person holding a valid permit issued before December 1, 2000, pursuant to Code Section 12-5-31 or 12-5-96. (14) `Stream flow' means the quantity of water passing a given location of the Flint River or its tributaries over a given time period expressed in cubic feet per second. Section 3 Code Section 12-5-544, relating to powers of the director of the EPD, by revising paragraph (2) and adding a new paragraph to read as follows: (2) Establish acceptable Flint River basin stream flows and one or more locations. (9.1.) Conduct and participate in studies related to management of the water resources in the Flint River basin.
Section 4 Code Section 12-5-546 relating to drought predictions and irrigation reduction auction, by revising subsection (a), (b), and (e) as follows:
(a) On or before March 1 of each year, EPD may issue a prediction as to whether severe drought conditions are expected during the year. If EPD predicts a severe drought during any particular year, it shall issue such prediction before March 1 of that year. Prediction of severe drought may be based on consideration of historical, mathematical, or meteorological information including, but not limited to stream flows, ground-water levels, and precipitation forecasts. Such prediction may also be based on scientific analyses, including but not limited to, the Palmer Drought Severity Index administered by the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration. (b) If severe drought conditions are predicted or otherwise declared in accordance with subsection (a) of this Code Section, the EPD may determine the total number of acres irrigated land, serviced by irrigation systems located within one or more of the affected areas, that must not be irrigated that year in order to maintain the acceptable Flint River basin stream flows. Upon such determination, the division may conduct an irrigation reduction auction whereby a permittee of an irrigation system located within the affected areas is given an opportunity to enter into an agreement with the EPD, agreeing that in exchange for a certain sum of money per acre of irrigated land serviced by the irrigation system, the permittee will not irrigate those particular acres for the remainder of the calendar year. GEFA shall pay the sum so agreed upon when so directed by the director of EPD from the unexpended balance of the drought protection funds. In conducting the irrigation reduction auction, the division may establish a maximum dollar amount per acre to be expended from the drought protection funds for such purposes. e) The expenditure of funds under this article as an incentive to permittees not to irrigate lands is deemed by the legislature as a valid use of state moneys to promote valid land use policies that result in the protection of the riverine environment by ensuring that such lands not be irrigated for a specified period of time. No expenditure of funds under this article shall be considered full or partial compensation for any losses, financial or otherwise, experienced due to nonirrigation; a lease or repurchase of any irrigation permit issued by the director of EPD or an acknowledgement by the State of Georgia of a property right in any permit issued by the director of EPD. Section 5 Code Section 12-5-546.1 (a) The Department of Agriculture and the State Soil and Water Conservation Commission shall in accordance with EPD in examining current practices, programs, policies, rules, and regulations to identify opportunities to enhance programming and incentives that will: (1) Support implementation of the agricultural water efficiency measures in water conservation or management plans prepared in accordance with Code Section 12-5-31, 12-5-96 and 12-5-522; (2) Support implementation of pilot projects demonstrating the efficacy of emerging innovative irrigation technologies where appropriated and affordable; (3) Identify ways the State Soil and Water Conservation Commission's program for measuring agricultural uses of water as authorized under Code Section 12-5-105 can further enhance efforts to improve agricultural water use efficiency; and 4) Encourage a scheduled program for the voluntary retirement of unused surface-water and ground-water farm use permits in accordance with Code Section 12-5-31 and 12-5-105. (b) The director may modify all active surface-water and ground-water withdrawal permits for farm use in the affected area to require all irrigation systems applying water withdrawn pursuant to such permits to achieve application efficiencies of 80 percent or greater by the year 2020. The schedule for achieving the application efficiencies provided in this subsection shall be as follows:
(1) Irrigation systems applying water withdrawn pursuant to all active permits issued after 2005 shall achieve a minimum application efficiency of 80 percent by January 1, 2016.
(2) Irrigation systems applying water withdrawn pursuant to all active permits issued from 1991 through 2005 shall achieve a minimum application efficiency of 80 percent by January 1, 2018.
(3) ) Irrigation systems applying water withdrawn pursuant to all active permits issued before 1991 shall achieve a minimum application efficiency of 80 percent by January 1, 2020. c) Notwithstanding subsection (b) of this Code Section, the director may modify specified active surface-water and groundwater withdrawal permits for farm use in the affected area to require all mobile irrigation systems and solid-set irrigation sprinklers operating under such permits to achieve application efficiencies of 60 percent or greater by the year 2020. The schedule for achieving such efficiencies shall be as follows:
(1) Irrigation systems applying water withdrawn pursuant to all active permits issued after 2005 shall achieve a minimum application efficiency of 60 percent by January 1, 2016.
(2) Irrigation systems applying water withdrawn pursuant to all active permits issued from 1991 through 2005 shall achieve a minimum application efficiency of 60 percent by January 1, 2018; and
(3) ) Irrigation systems applying water withdrawn pursuant to all active permits issued before 1991 shall achieve a minimum application efficiency of 60 percent by January 1, 2020. (d) Notwithstanding the irrigation efficiency rates required in subsection c) of this Code Section or any other provision of this Code Section to the contrary, the minimum irrigation efficiency rate for mobile irrigation systems and solid-set irrigation sprinklers applying water withdrawn pursuant to new permits shall be 60 percent. e) When considering any permit application for a new surface-water or ground-water withdrawal for farm use in the affected area, the division shall require that the irrigation system applying water withdrawn pursuant to any such permit has an irrigation efficiency of at least 80 percent. (f) The EPD division shall, in cooperation with other state and federal agencies, universities, the Georgia Water Planning and Policy Center, the Lower Flint-Ochlockonee Regional Water Council, and other appropriate entities, provide to the board of
DNR for consideration for adoption in its rules requirements pertaining to methods requirements pertaining to methods an applicant may utilize to demonstrate that the required irrigation efficiency has been achieved. Requirements shall consider current technologies, best management practices, and the effects of soil type and topography, among other factors deemed necessary. (g) The EPD shall coordinate with any federal or state agencies offering incentive programs that support the purposes of this article to identify opportunities to refine and target relevant programs as practicable to assist permitees with achieving application efficiency requirements. Code Section 12-5-546.2 (a) As used in this Code Section, `permitee' means any person holding a valid permit issued pursuant to Code Section 12-531. (b) The director of EPD is authorized to notify specified permitees with surface-water withdrawal permits downstream of a state funded project specifically authorized to augment stream flows that, during specified periods of the project's operation and for the purpose of maintaining instream flows, the permitee shall let the flow provided by the augmentation projects pass their point of withdrawal. When specifying those permitees subject to such notification, the director shall also establish, in accordance with the factors that may be considered under paragraph e) of this Code Section, those withdrawal permitees that shall not be subject to the requirements of this Code Section. (c) Such notification shall be provided in accordance with the rules promulgated by the board of natural resources, shall be based on the best available science, and shall, at a minimum, inform the permitees that the upstream project is delivering augmented flows. (d) The director's notification shall contain notice of opportunity for a hearing and shall be served by certified mail, return receipt requested, to the most recent address provided by the permitee. Any permitee to whom such notification is directed shall comply therewith immediately, but shall be afforded a hearing within five business days of the director's receipt of a petition filed by such permitee. Such hearing shall be before an administrative law judge of the Office of State Administrative Hearings and shall be conducted in accordance with the subsection c) of Code Section 12-2-2. Based upon findings adduced at such hearing, the notification shall be modified, reversed, or continued by the director as he or she deems appropriate. (e) In preparing such notification, the director may consider: (1) The best available modeling and monitoring data for relevant locations and stream reaches; (2) The appropriate duration of protection of augmented flows; (3) The distance downstream for which protection of augmented flows is appropriate; (4) The degree to which protection of augmented flows will assist in mitigating the effects of droughts, provide ecological or other environmental benefits and ensure sustainable, long-term access to water resources for existing and future water users; and (5) Any other data or information the director deems relevant. (f) Nothing in the Code Section shall provide authority for the interbasin transfer of water. Section 6 Code Section 12-5-549 is revised relating to compliance as follows: (a) Except as may otherwise be provided in this article.
