The area of study covers 96 square miles in Townships 11 and 12 South and Ranges 12 through 14 East. The projected 2025 population of the water company's certificated area (CC&N) is 27,956 people. The Department agrees that under R12-15-703 Assured Water Supply Requirement - Physical Availability, sufficient groundwater of adequate quality will be continuously available to meet the projected demand of at least 6983 acre-feet per year for 100 years developments within the water company's certificated area. The estimated one hundred year depth to water should not exceed 1000 feet below land surface based on historic responses of the aquifer to changing groundwater withdrawals within the area of study. The above referenced report fulfills the requirements of R12-15-702 and can be cited in applications for designation of assured water supply or certificates of assured water supply. For information regarding applications for designation of assured water supply and or certificates of assured water supply in the study area please contact Mr. Steve Rossi at (602) 417-2460.
