Program Highlights
To assist agricultural landowners and growers that farm within the boundaries of Ventura County, various agricultural organizations, water districts and individuals have joined together to develop and form the Ventura County Agricultural Irrigated Lands Group (VCAILG), which is intended to act as one unified “Discharger Group” for those agricultural landowners and growers that wish to participate.
It is intended that the VCAILG remain an unincorporated organization. Membership in the VCAILG is completely voluntary and related solely to compliance with the terms of the Conditional Ag Waiver. Membership consists of any agricultural landowner or grower who chooses to participate willingly and agrees to participate and abide by a PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT. Administrators of the VCAILG will maintain regular communications with VCAILG members.
