d. Any other measures appropriate to the circumstances of the aquifer.

There have also been examples of interaction between magma and water in an aquifer.

b. The injection of water that is polluted or would otherwise degrade an aquifer

Aquifer means a subsurface layer or layers of rock or other geological strata of sufficient porosity and permeability to allow either a significant flow of groundwater or the abstraction of significant quantities of groundwater.

Aquifer means a subsurface layer or layers of geological strata of sufficient porosity and permeability to allow either a flow of or the withdrawal of usable quantities of groundwater.

Groundwater means all water which is below the surface of the ground in the saturation zone and in direct contact with the ground or subsoil.

Aquifer means a subsurface water bearing geologic formation from which significant quantities of water may be extracted.

Basin States shall cooperate according to the procedures in Chapter XI to set drawdown rates in order to assure the equitable utilization of the waters of an aquifer referred in paragraph 1, having due regard for the obligation not to cause significant harm to other basin States and to the obligation to protect the aquifer.

States shall specially protect sites where groundwater is withdrawn from or recharged to an aquifer.

Groundwater means water beneath the surface of the ground located in a saturated zone and in direct contact with the ground or soil.

The majority of South Florida's fresh water, which is stored in the Biscayne Aquifer, is recharged in the park.

(v) Article 9 of the Agreement on the Protection, Utilization and Recharge of the Franco Swiss Genevese Aquifer, 1977, Limitations

An aquifer called Ohangwena II has been discovered, capable of supplying the 800,000 people in the North for 400 years.

States in fulfilling their obligation to prevent pollution of an aquifer shall take special care to prevent, eliminate, reduce, or control

(a) Their practice, bilateral or regional, relating to the allocation of groundwaters from transboundary aquifer systems and the management of non renewable transboundary aquifer systems relating to the topic currently entitled Shared natural resources

Under this topic, the Commission is now focusing for the time being on codification of the law on transboundary groundwaters (aquifers and aquifer systems).

c. Assessing the impacts on groundwater and aquifers of industrial, agricultural, and other activities and

This solution is not fully satisfactory because there is a threat of contaminating underground waters.

To keep the cost of storage acceptable, the geophysical exploration may be limited, resulting in larger uncertainty about the aquifer structure.

(ii) Article 10, paragraph 1 of the Arrangement on the Protection, Utilization and Recharge of the Franco Swiss Genevese Aquifer, 1977, Forecasts Reserved water volumes

In allocating groundwater resources, account should be taken of the amount of groundwater in reserve and of the rate of its replenishment.

(xii) Charter on Groundwater Management, 1989, adopted by the Economic Commission for Europe at its forty fourth session, Groundwater strategies

The Government's water sources are groundwater and surface water (Ugum River).

Protection measures aimed at prevention of groundwater pollution and overuse should be the basic tools for groundwater management.

Aquifer Natural water bearing geological formation found below the surface of the earth.

Monitoring groundwater levels, pressures, and quality

Salinization and depletion of groundwater resources Jordan seeks compensation in the amount of USD 1,465,565,462 for the salinization and depletion of its groundwater resources.

Kuwait was awarded compensation to remediate the aquifers.

(viii) Section IV of the Charter on Groundwater Management, 1989, adopted by the Economic Commission for Europe at its forty fourth session, Groundwater allocation

In order to ensure the rational management of the recharge installation, at the beginning of the year each user or group of users shall announce to the Commission their estimated volume of extractions from the aquifer for the next 12 months.

In order to comply with this Chapter, States shall take all appropriate steps to acquire the information necessary to manage groundwater and aquifers efficiently and effectively, including

b. Developing aquifer vulnerability maps

First claim unit Groundwater resources Jordan seeks compensation in the amount of USD 1,771,413,994 for this claim unit.

Concerning the topic Effects of armed conflicts on treaties , the Commission considered the first report of the Special Rapporteur on the topic (A CN.4 552), presenting an overview of

However, sustainable use of groundwater resources would require regulatory regimes to control aquifer depletion and protect water quality, for which monitoring and enforcement capacities would need to be developed or enhanced.

(7) the protection of surface and groundwaters against depletion and pollution

(k) Additional specific measures are taken to prevent the pollution of groundwaters

Fifth claim unit Monitoring of groundwater resources Iran seeks compensation in the amount of USD 1,056,000 for expenses of proposed measures to collect and analyse samples from springs, wells, qanats and rivers that have been damaged by contamination from the oil well fires in Kuwait.

Loss of groundwater due to microbiological contamination Jordan seeks compensation in the amount of USD 11,365,977 for the loss of use of groundwater resources in the Qairawan, Baqouriyeh, Shoreya'a, Hazzir and Wadi As Sir springs due to microbiological contamination as a result of the presence of refugees in Jordan following Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait.

Groundwater pollution is interrelated with the pollution of other environmental media (surface water, soils, atmosphere).

The Parties undertake cooperatively to protect and to improve, insofar as practicable, the quality of transboundary aquifers and their waters in conjunction with their programmes for surface water quality control, and to avoid appreciable harm in or to the territories of the Parties.

More emphasis should be given to the nature conservation value provided by groundwater resources, in particular where nature protection areas are vulnerable to changes in groundwater conditions.

Water chemistry analysis is often the groundwork of studies of water quality, pollution, hydrology and geothermal waters.

Effective management links land and water uses across the whole of a catchment area or groundwater aquifer.
