Background
The City's Groundwater Management Program (GMP) was created in 2006 in response to conditions laid out in the Water Resources Element of the 2004 Comprehensive Plan which identified the assessment and protection of the Island's water resources as one of the top goals and guiding principles for the Plan.
At present, the City collects monthly water level data at 45 wells and annual chloride measurements in 30 wells Islandwide. Water level data is used to help assess the quantity of water in different aquifers. Chloride data is an indicator of potential seawater intrusion which occurs when saltwater intrudes into fresh water supplies.
