GRUUND WATER IN STORAGE <br />AQUIFER SPECIFIC YIELD VOLLTME IN ST�RAGE <br />(millions of acre-feet) <br />Upper Dawson <br />Lower Dawson <br />Denver <br />Upper Arapahoe <br />Lower Arapahoe <br />Laramie-Fox Hills <br />20 <br />2� <br />17 <br />17 <br />17 <br />15 <br />T�TAL <br />22 - <br />10 <br />71 <br />78 <br />12 <br />l02 <br />295 million acre-feet <br />Note: Based on analysis of drill core from a location near Kiowa, the stated specific yield values may be as <br />much as 25 to 30 percent above an "average" specific yield value for the Denver Basin aquifers. Therefore, <br />the actual vvlume of water cantained in the aquifers may be less than the �olumes estimated. <br />Figure 2: Estimated volume of water in storage in the Denver Basin aquifers. <br />6 <br />
