The Groundwater Technical Advisory Committee (GTAC) is an ad hoc committee that provides technical input on groundwater-related topics. GTAC members are third-party experts with expertise in hydrology, hydrogeology, hydrological modeling, civil engineering or a related field. The GTAC provides technical guidance and peer review on items such as the Deep Aquifers Study, groundwater model development, hydrogeologic conceptual model updates, and feasibility studies to address seawater intrusion and is convened as needed by SVBGSA staff.
