Groundwater recharge through wells : a guide to aquifer storage recovery, 1994 (ASR) Engr. index: under Water supply (aquifer storage recovery) LC Database, Oct. 23, 2002 (titles: aquifer storage and recovery) Aquifer storage recovery, via welldrillingschool.com, May 27, 2005 ("Aquifer Storage Recovery is the storage of water in a well during times when water is available, and recovery of the water from the same well when it is needed ... Large water volumes are stored deep underground, reducing or eliminating the need to construct large and expensive surface reservoirs. In many cases, the storage zones are aquifers ...") Aquifer storage and recovery (ASR), via Water Resources Solutions home page, May 27, 2005 ("ASR is a water management tool whereby aquifers are used as a reservoir to store excess water which is later withdrawn for use. Commonly in this process, aquifer zones containing brackish water are flushed by displacement with fresh water. Fresh water can then be stored in either treated or untreated form. ASR well systems can store more than a billion gallons of treated potable water and later withdraw this water for direct distribution to water customers.") Aquifer storage recovery is a key component in sustainability, via WWW, May 27, 2005 ("Aquifer Storage Recovery (ASR) has revolutionized the water resources management field ... Water can be stored in underground aquifers through ASR wells during the wet season when surplus water is available and demands are typically lower. The stored water can be recovered using the same wells during the peak demand dry season. Water can also be stored underground on a long-term basis, thereby providing a sustainable water reserve to meet emergency or drought water needs.") |
