Kings County Farm Bureau and two landowners file a lawsuit over a decision by the State Water Resources Control Board in April to place the Tulare Lake Subbasin on so-called probationary status.
The move placed state officials, instead of local officials, in charge of tracking how much water is pumped from the ground in a region that state officials deemed had failed to come up with a plan to sustainably manage the resource.
The lawsuit alleges the move went beyond the board's authority in “an act of State overreach”.
The Tulare Lake Subbasin covers a stretch of Kings County , which is home to about 150,000 people.
The county is a major producer of milk, pistachios, cotton and processed tomatoes.
Five local agencies in the region worked on a single groundwater management proposal last year .
