Description | Securing the future water supply for agriculture, domestic use, instream flow and habitat in the Yakima Basin is the focus of coordinated efforts under the Yakima Basin Integrated Plan (YBIP). Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) is one sustainable and cost-effective approach to store water underground for recovery during seasonal dry periods or drought. This proposal presents a plan to study two large alluvial fan aquifers to provide a detailed hydrogeologic characterization and assess their potential as groundwater storage reservoirs. | ||||
