Welcome to the Water Accounting Platform. The platform is designed to meet these objectives:

• Help water managers achieve groundwater sustainability goals and minimize economic costs to the community.
• Over the longer term, consider opportunities to generate additional benefits from fallowed land such as groundwater recharge basins and wildlife habitat.
• Exploring water trading policies, including reducing water trading transaction costs and facilitate effective accounting and management of available water resources.
