DBS&A Presents on Managed Aquifer Recharge in New Mexico
DBS&A will sponsor and present at the American Ground Water Trust (AGWT) New Mexico Groundwater Conference on July 27th and 28th, 2022, in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The conference will examine New Mexico’s topical groundwater issues and facilitate information sharing among landowners, groundwater end-users, regulators, management agencies, scientists, engineers, lawyers, and citizens who have economic or environmental interests in water resources.
DBS&A’s Christopher Wolf, PG, and Amy Ewing, PG, will present on “Managed Aquifer Recharge in New Mexico.” Also attending the conference will be DBS&A Engineer Jeffrey Samson, PE.
Mr. Wolf specializes in applying geochemistry and hydrogeology to water resources and environmental projects and designs, installs, and tests water supply wells for tribes, municipalities, and water districts. For managed aquifer recharge (MAR) projects, Mr. Wolf evaluates geology and geochemistry to determine how local hydrogeology will influence water movement and water quality. By applying geochemical methods, he determines water chemistry and compatibility of the recharge source water with groundwater and aquifer sediments, and predicts water quality during MAR operations.
Ms. Ewing is a hydrogeologist specializing in water supply, conservation, and drought planning; hydrogeology; MAR; surface and groundwater quality studies; water rights; and permitting. She has extensive experience with recharge projects in New Mexico, including preparing the recharge project planning documents and permit applications, agency coordination with the New Mexico Office of the State Engineer (OSE) and New Mexico Environment Department (NMED), monitoring network design, construction oversight, water quality sampling, and reporting.
