Increasing demand on the limited supplies of freshwater |
|
in the desert Southwest, as well as other parts of the |
|
United States, has increased the level of interest in |
|
saline-water resources. Saline ground water has long been |
|
recognized as a potentially important contributor to |
|
water supply in the Southwest, as demonstrated by the |
|
number of hydrologic, geologic, and engineering studies |
|
on the distribution of saline water and the feasibility |
|
of desalination. Potential future study needs include |
|
investigating and documenting the three-dimensional |
|
distribution of salinity and chemical composition of |
|
saline-water resources and the hydraulic properties of |
|
aquifers containing these saline-water resources, |
|
assessing the chemical suitability of saline water for |
|
use with existing and anticipated desalination |
|
technologies, simulating the effect of withdrawal of |
|
saline ground water on water levels and water composition |
|
in saline and adjoining or overlying freshwater aquifers, |
|
and determining the suitability of target geologic |
|
formations for injection of desalination-generated waste. |
