The reader will note that where water level is zero with no additional data entry, that no water <br />level measurement was taken during those subsequent measurement periods. <br />The average decline of water level within the network was -2.50 feet for 2001- as compared to - <br />1.12 feet in 2000 and -1.70 feet decline in 1999. The average rise in water level was 3.06 feet <br />for 2001 as compared to 10.76 feet in 2000 and 1.49 in 1999. <br />A map depicting the location of monitoring wells, as well as individual well data and selected <br />well hydrographs, has been modified by GPS information and replacement well information and <br />follows this text. <br />Ogallala Aquifer <br />A total of nineteen wells are completed wholly or in part within the Ogallala aquifer within the <br />monitoring network. Eleven wells experienced declines of -0.40 to —24.3 feet. Three wells <br />again this year experienced rises in water levels. The average rise was +0.33 feet as <br />compared to +0.55 feet of rise in 2000 and +1.43 rise in 1999. In 2000-2001 the average <br />decline of Ogallala wells was —3.70 feet as compared to the average Ogallala well decline of - <br />1.80 in 1999-2000.
