Effects Of Experimental Passive Artificial Recharge Of Treated Surface Water On Water Quality In The Equus Beds Aquifer 2009-2010 | Indigo Chapters

Declining water levels and concerns about the migration of a known saltwater plume upgradient from public supply wells prompted the City of Wichita to investigate the feasibility of using artificial recharge to replenish the water supply in the Equus Beds aquifer. After preliminary testing, the City of Wichita began Phase I of the Equus Beds Aquifer Storage and Recovery Project in 2006. In 2009, the City of Wichita installed an experimental passive gravity recharge well and trench system to increase artificial recharge at Recharge Basin 1, one of the six Phase І recharge sites. | Effects Of Experimental Passive Artificial Recharge Of Treated Surface Water On Water Quality In The Equus Beds Aquifer 2009-2010 | Indigo Chapters
