An Empirical Evaluation of the Costs of Groundwater OverdraftBush, David B., Martin, William E. 27 April 1985 (has links)
From the Proceedings of the 1985 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Association and the Hydrology Section - Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science - April 27, 1985, Las Vegas, Nevada / Estimates of the variable costs for groundwater pumping and overdraft in Central Arizona are compared to the price of water delivered via the Central Arizona Project (CAP). The respective marginal costs of supplying irrigation water through each of the two alternative sources are compared to the marginal demand for water by farmers. Finally, the relative cost competitiveness of groundwater versus CAP water is evaluated against a number of alternative rates of energy cost escalation and groundwater decline.

Evaluating the Effectiveness of Curtain Wells Against Subsurface Flooding in Yuma, ArizonaYoung, Don W., Burnett, Earl E. 27 April 1985 (has links)
From the Proceedings of the 1985 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Association and the Hydrology Section - Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science - April 27, 1985, Las Vegas, Nevada / During 1983 the Colorado River experienced high flow conditions due to abnormally high snowmelt and runoff from the upper basin states. Flood stages provided sufficient hydraulic head to force water under the protective levee system around Yuma, Arizona. This caused inundation of adjacent urban and agricultural lands from the subsequent rise in the local water table. A methodology was planned whereby a series of "curtain wells" would be installed and the water table pumped down to below grade conditions. The feasibility of accomplishing this was studied by retrofitting an existing agricultural well located on "Yuma Island", and installing a series of monitor wells in a two-dimensional array perpendicular and tangential to the levee. The production well was pumped continuously for eight weeks, and the subsequent drawdown within the piezometers monitored. Based on the data gathered, it was possible to predict the effectiveness of the proposed curtain well system.

Effects of the Green Valley Wastewater Treatment Facility Upon Groundwater QualityPostillion, Frank G., Block, Michael W., Merz, August 19 April 1986 (has links)
From the Proceedings of the 1986 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Association, Hydrology Section - Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science and the Arizona Hydrological Society - April 19, 1986, Glendale Community College, Glendale, Arizona / The Green Valley Wastewater Treatment Facility (GVWWTF) is about 20 miles south of Tucson, Arizona. Locally, the aquifer consists of interbedded sands, silts and gravels. Depth to water near the facility is about 160 feet with transmissivity ranging from 32,000 to 48,000 gpd /ft. Ground water quality has historically been poor near the facility due to deep percolation of irrigation return flow. With the retirement of farm land, however, ground water quality has improved considerably. The only problem with well water downgradient of GVWWTF has been with total coliform where several samples exceeded public drinking water standards. Current inflow of about 1.1 mgd will increase to 4.5 mgd by 2005. Flow net and mass balance analyses indicate effluent recharge by percolation beds will increase from 1060 AF /year to 4130 AF /year during this period. A mass balance model predicts TDS will increase from about 585 to 615 mg/l, nitrate-N will increase from 9.2 to 9.9 mg/l, chloride will increase from 50 to 75 mg/1, and sulfate will decrease by 25 mg/l to 115 mg/l. Further study of pond disinfection for prevention of microbiological contamination is suggested. Additionally, effluent reuse and an enhanced monitoring program including upgradient and downgradient wells are encouraged.

Analysis of Natural Ground-water Level Variations for Aquifer ConceptualizationNevulis, R., Davis, D., Sorooshian, S., Wolford, R. 18 April 1987 (has links)
From the Proceedings of the 1987 Meetings of the Arizona Section - American Water Resources Association, Hydrology Section - Arizona-Nevada Academy of Science and the Arizona Hydrological Society - April 18, 1987, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, Arizona / Missing pages 49 & 50 from original / Statistical evaluations of time-series ground-water level data can be used to infer ground-water flow concepts. Advantages of such passive methods of analysis may include relative simplicity, low cost, and avoidance of disturbances typically associated with stress testing of aquifers. In this analysis, selected statistical methods were used to draw inferences on the characteristics of an aquifer within the Columbia River basalts in the Pasco Basin of southcentral Washington. This information will be used in developing a conceptual model of ground water flow and in the planning of future hydrologic field investigations.
