The Arizona Geological Survey released a new report on the hydrogeologic conditions of the eastern Higley Basin and northern Picacho Basin near Florence, Arizona. This 18-page study shows that depth to bedrock, basin fill alluvium, interbedded basalt flows, and faults are more extensive in the two-basin area than previously thought. This may have important ramifications for the volume and distribution of groundwater resources.Funding for this research was provided in part by the Salt River Project. Learn more »
