Groundwater monitoring involves the systematic collection and analysis of data to assess the quantity and quality of groundwater resources. It’s essential for understanding groundwater levels, flow patterns, and chemical composition, which are crucial for water resource management, environmental protection, and public health.
Groundwater is the most abundant freshwater resource on the planet. More groundwater extraction means more settling, and potentially more serious damage to local communities, including cracks in walls, roads, or foundations, and even sinkholes. Real-time groundwater monitoring is the most effective way to protect the groundwater for use by the community.
Our goal at Quatenary, is to ensure this important resource is being managed sustainably to meet the needs of both water users and the environment. We currently monitor water use at various sites.
We also provide training for those who would prefer to sample their own wells. Sampling schedules are maintained to help meet sampling deadlines.
