  2. Topics 1. Why Privately Develop Managed Aquifer Recharge? 2. How Does this work?  Is this legal?  3. Where are eligible basins? 4. Municipal applications. 5. Costs. 6. When can this happen?

  3. Why Privately Develop Managed Aquifer Recharge?

  4. Recharge Development Corporation Mission Establish self-perpetuating Private Managed Aquifer Recharge in basins throughout the world

  5. How  Does the process work?  Is this legal?

  6. Articles available at idahowaterengineering.com and at rechargedevelopment.com

  7. Where  Are eligible basins?

  8. If wells in a groundwater basin: Are now being regulated or are facing curtailment due to • insufficient water supply, and • Are proximate to a source of supply that during some periods has excess flow (such as during spring runoff), and • Divert from an aquifer that is physically amenable to ground water recharge, and • Are in a state where the regulatory framework can accommodate these principles. Then, we recommend a consultation.

  9. When can this happen?

  12. RDC Recharge Site Starts 2016 In the 2017 2018 Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer In Discussion Later in 2018 Future Major Projects

  13. Municipal Applications  One city in the ESPA has ARUs (City of Blackfoot). They will consider purchasing more at a City Council meeting next week.  City of Shelley is reviewing a contract for purchase.  RDC is actively discussing purchase of ARUs with four additional cities.

  14. Summary  RDC is ready now to assist implementation of Private Managed Aquifer Recharge in basins where groundwater uses are restricted.

  15. Thank you.
