The Basin occupies approximately 123 square miles in western Santa Barbara County. It is bounded on the north by the Casmalia Hills and Solomon Hills, on the east by the San Rafael Mountains and a watershed divide separating the adjoining Santa Ynez River Valley groundwater basin, on the south by the Purisima Hills and Burton Mesa, and the west by the approximate western boundary of Barka Slough. The Basin has been designated by the California Department of Water Resources (DWR) as “medium-priority.”
