Introduction

As the largest source of fresh water in the state, it is important to understand the groundwater systems in order to manage risks to water quality and supply.

Groundwater is stored in geological formations below the earth's surface. The type of geological formation determines the quantity of water that can be extracted.

The lists below show the most recent additions and updates. View a complete list by clicking the relevant link under the list or under In this section (right).
