SECTION 5. WATER RESOURCE MONITORING PROGRAMS
5.1 OVERVIEW
This section describes OCWD ’s surface water and groundwater monitoring programs in the Santa Ana Canyon Management Area.
5.2 GROUNDWATER MONITORING PROGRAMS
OCWD monitors groundwater levels, quality and production in the Santa Ana Canyon Management Area. As shown on Figure 5-1, groundwater levels are monitored at six wells. Within the last five years, well SCE-YLCS was destroyed and replaced in the monitoring network by well EMA-AH5. Water level data from wells SILV-YL and EMA-AH5 will be reported annually to DWR in compliance with SGMA. In addition, OCWD worked with the County of Orange to install meters on wells used to supply Green River Golf Course and to begin collecting and reporting production data. Data provided in this report utilizes metered data for all wells that pump groundwater in the Santa Ana Canyon Management area.
