Water from High Plains aquifer explored at Exploration Place
Exploration Place opens an interactive aquifer exhibit to explain the High Plains aquifer that supplies 70 to 80 percent of Kansas water. The exhibit, funded by a $148,000 federal IMLS grant, features consumer water use models, pollution tracking, and local solutions with partnerships from Butler Community College, Kansas Farm Bureau, and Great Plains Nature Center.
