Aquifer supplies could be in jeopardy
The US Geological Survey warns that the Ogallala Aquifer in the High Plains could lose long term viability if irrigation pumping remains high and fertilizers continue to contaminate land above the reservoir. The study, presented in Park City, Utah, notes good water quality but stresses substantial changes are needed to extend the aquifer’s life as 2 million rely on it for drinking and irrigation across eight states. Contaminant levels exceed federal standards in about 6 percent of tested drinking wells, a result linked to fertilizer use and natural processes.
