During the February 25, 2009 Fox Canyon Groundwater Management Agency Board of Directors meeting, the Board adopted Emergency Ordinance 'D', which imposed a temporary moratorium on the issuance of new or expanded well permits and a four acre-feet per acre cap on irrigation efficiency based allocations in the East, West and South Las Posas Groundwater Basins ("Las Posas Basins"). A primary purpose of the moratorium is to create a "time-out" during which a Basin-Specific Management Plan (BSMP) for the Las Posas Basins can be developed. More information about the BSMP can be found on the Las Posas Basins webpage.

Extensions of Emergency Ordinance 'D' are as follows:

• Revision #1, Adopted December 2, 2009 - (Expiration Date: June 30, 2010)
• Revision #2, Adopted June 23, 2010 - (Expiration Date: December 31, 2010)
• Revision #3, Adopted December 1, 2010 - (Expiration Date: March 31, 2011)
• Revision #4, Adopted March 23, 2011 - (Expiration Date: December 31, 2011)
