Today our team was in the field installing new monitoring equipment on a Colorado River Alluvium well.

This is a part of our Colorado River and Alluvium study to determine the surface water and groundwater interactions.

Thank you to the Texas Water Development Board for the $50,000 grant to help us study these interactions.

Thank you to the City of Bastrop for volunteering your wells to participate in the study.

Do you have a well in the Colorado River Alluvium? We’d love to study your well too! Call us to learn about the study and how you can participate (512) 360-5088.

Why should you track your well's water level?

A series of measurements collected over time tells a story of your well's health. Tracking it can help you spot problems before you turn the faucet on and there is no running water.
