Mr. Ruiz reported the following Recover wells allow recover groundwater credits. store water in long storage. Reduce CAGRD per a/f
8 wells permitted for recovery wells by ADWR 2 from CS
2009 recovered 2700 a/f/ Wells to be permitted must meet 5 year 4ft decline in water table average to be considered as recovery wells
For a well to be permitted as a recovery well it must meet certain criteria set by Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR). ADWR requires that the five-year average draw down or ground water decline of a recovery well not exceed more than 4-feet.
application being submitted . Evaluate grdwater data. 8 wells meet classification. Process of putting it together.
Must have long term storage credits Kai farms , lower santa cruz usf & Avra valley.
Finalized process. working with adwr employee. Question Milkey 2700 recover how did we deposit 4,000 put in by p. saletta currently 17,000 credits.
A question and discussion session occurred:
-We currently recovered 2,700 AF of water from the recovery wells last year, how much did we deposit? (Commissioner Milkey). Mr. Ruiz explained that a total of 4,000 AF was recharged and currently we have approximately 17,000 AF of Long Term Storage Credits.
whey were the previous 6 wells rejected. if area does not support it will not be approved.
Milkey Is there a lifetime requirement permit for wells. Need to be reapproved.
Shapiro Water into Kai farms we get credits. credit used for recovery wells. Can we use for something els. We can use to reduce CAGRD, We still have to pay other charges but offsett per a/f cost. P Saletta
By using reclaim it had helped the utility again. This year rate of decline is not as before helped by reclaim, demand is down (construction) and rainfall has helped.
average of 5 year decline it has to be 4 ft less per year. Natural recharge rainfall and snow.
recertification what had we seen on recovery wells. (Reynolds) They are increasing slowly. CS already recovery wells total of 8
