The Future of Groundwater Sustainability Through Managed Aquifer Recharge
Session ID#: 252281
Session Description:
The sustainability of our groundwater is at the forefront of our minds daily with diminishing water supply, declining water levels, subsidence, and water quality. Managed aquifer recharge is one of the options available to private and governmental entities to help sustain our groundwater for the future. Whether for water treatment plants, public drinking water supply, irrigation, restoring water levels to surface water bodies or emergency use for cooling towers, among many other applications; we need to be the stewards of the future for our groundwater sustainability. We invite you to submit on this meeting of the minds to share your expertise, experience, and knowledge through case studies and lessons learned during permitting, construction, testing, and operation of aquifer recharge and aquifer storage and recovery wells.
