Field techs are out once again to make depth to water measurements across the District. Approximately 950 various wells will be measured to provide accurate detailed information for our records. Staff measures windmills, irrigation, domestic and abandoned wells.
The information gathered from these measurements is used in creating saturated thickness maps, depletion maps and IRS decline maps. These maps are useful for local producers to determine the amount of water under their property. The data collected is key in the operation of our depletion management program.
The maps created from these measurements help to demonstrate how the water table has changed over the last year. They are also used to determine the depletion allowance for IRS purposes.
The main goal is to provide accurate information to constituents of the District. If you notice a red pickup with a PGCD logo in your area, we are collecting information.
If you have any questions or comments, please call us at 800-320-3536 or 806-883-2501.
