Groundwater management system
The invention relates to a method of managing ground water resources, where bores are used to extract ground water such as for agricultural, mining and town water supply purposes. It involves a method for managing a groundwater resource including, providing at least one production bore that is adapted to extract groundwater from an aquifer, providing at least one monitoring bore that provides a measure of the extraction capability of removing water from the aquifer, measuring the hydraulic head of groundwater in the aquifer by means of the monitoring bore, and monitoring at least one indicator of the capability of extracting groundwater from the bores. The method involves determining at least one trigger point at which further monitoring of, or action in respect of, the groundwater extraction is to be undertaken, and intervening when this trigger point is reached during groundwater extraction. Preferably there are at least two trigger points; one to trigger a review and another that triggers management action.
