<br />
<br />Shortage of aurfac~ water to meet the water supply needs of rural '
<br />areas and urban centers.
<br />
<br />02-Al, Bl1975-l985, 1985-2000
<br />
<br />Surface water quality is generally fair to poor for municipal and
<br />irrigation use.
<br />
<br />30-Al, Bl 1975-1985, 1985-2000
<br />
<br />In some areas, groundwater canllotmeet rural demands, much less
<br />municipal and irrigation needs. In the high plains panhandle area
<br />groundwater is being used faster than recharge is occurring (ground-
<br />water mining).
<br />
<br />31-Al, Bl 1975-1985, 1985-2000
<br />
<br />Water quality in sections of the northern Rush Spring S.ndstone is
<br />poor snd also the Garber-Wellington Sandstone at variable depths below
<br />the land surface contains water too highly miner.lized for most uses.
