FINDING: Aquifer Recharge Area
|
|
Wording
|
| | |
Aquifer recharge areas in Jefferson County are characterized by porous geologic formations that allow percolation of the surface water into the soils and the underlying zone of saturation. Aquifers are geologic formations that contain sufficient saturated permeable material to yield significant quantities of water to wells and springs. Aquifers serve as the source of drinking water within most of the rural portions of Jefferson County.
