Ground Water Management

"Groundwater management must take into consideration:

• protecting the quality of the resource from degradation by human activities;
• regulating land use to protect recharge areas;
• exploring options for artificial recharge and conjunctive use; and
• establishing sustainable depletion rates for aquifers." (Viessman, 1997, p.3)
