Description | Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) is a cost-effective way to increase water storage. Previous MAR assessments conducted by the Kittitas Reclamation District (KRD) identified locations suitable for project implementation based on qualifying characteristics. High-priority locations were identified because they have suitable geology and a reasonable opportunity for property access. They also have good access to flows both from KRD irrigation system and from potential seasonal flood flows and a good likelihood of in stream benefit of recharged water. Targeted research on stream discharge and local groundwater is required as we further prioritize sites for MAR implementation projects. The objective of this study is to acquire real-time stream discharge rates at sites identified in the MAR assessment and at the four test wells previously installed at the Taneum Creek Shallow Aquifer Recharge (SAR) site. The new data will increase our understanding of water availability and occurrence in the Upper Yakima River Basin. |
