New study into use of huge aquifer in Isan

Surin is not included as it has a sufficient supply of surface water, thanks to rain brought by former tropical storm Podul.


In Nakhon Ratchasima, artesian wells have been sunk at all villages so it was quite certain there would be sufficient water for consumption this dry season, he said.

Groundwater from artesian wells at more than 400 schools is being processed for use as drinking water, and can also be used by people from nearby communities, he said.

Of the estimated 16,000 million cubic metres of water in the aquifer, only about 11% of it is being pumped for use. The department study will explore ways of making the most use of it.

That article does mention "Surin is not included as it has a sufficient supply of surface water, thanks to rain brought by former tropical storm Podul." which did help a certain mud hole that service Soi Kola.:D But that storm did Jack Shyt for the overall province.:rolleyes::D:D. I guaranty they could put a couple of those wells in Kap Choeng.
 
Clean water is a precious resource.
Every tap into an aquifer is a chance to potentially damage or misuse an aquifer at a future date. :mask:
