These declines have raised concern over the ability of the deeper aquifers to meet the increasing demand for potable water supply. To provide additional water and reduce the demand on the deeper aquifers, the Albany Water Gas, and Light Commission (WGL) has developed a large well field southwest of Albany. The supply wells at this location primarily tap the Upper Floridan aquifer, a karstic unit that is the uppermost reliable source of water in the area. Because of local recharge to the aquifer, water quality may be affected by land use. The groundwater flow system and water quality of the Upper Floridan aquifer in the vicinity of the wellfield is complex. Monitoring is necessary to detect changes in the water level and water quality. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with WGL, is conducting a monitoring program for early detection of water-level declines and water-quality changes." }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "August 2000" }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "December 2019" }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "Problem" }, { "@type": "TextObject", "text": "Groundwater Monitoring Network" } ], "funder": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "South Atlantic Water Science Center (SAWSC)", "url": "https://www.usgs.gov/centers/sawsc" }, "about": [ { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Methods and Analysis" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Information Systems" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Science Technology" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Rural Water Monitoring" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Groundwater and Streamflow Monitoring" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Albany Georgia" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Energy" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Groundwater Monitoring" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Groundwater Contamination" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Environmental Health" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Water" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Water Availability and Use" }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Geology" } ]
