    Proceedings of the 1997 Georgia Water Resources Conference, March 20-22, 1997, Athens, Georgia.The quality of ground-water withdrawals in the Brunswick, GA area has degraded over the years due to the upconing of highly mineralized water into the Floridan aquifer from the underlying Fernandina formation. The upconing has resulted in a saltwater plume in the Floridan aquifer that has migrated among various pumping centers. This degradation in water quality has threatened the potential of the Floridan aquifer as a long term water resource for both industrial and municipal water supply. Several alternatives to improve the water quality of withdrawals from the Floridan aquifer are offered. These alternatives include: 1) making withdrawls from the Upper Floridan aquifer, only 2) optimizing pumping schedules, 3) controlling vertical migration of the plume by manipulating aquifer pressures, and 4) selective pumping in areas outside the plume to control horizontal migration.Sponsored and Organized by: U.S. Geological Survey, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, The University of Georgia, Georgia State University, Georgia Institute of TechnologyThis book was published by the Institute of Ecology, The University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602 with partial funding provided by the U.S. Department of Interior, Geological Survey, through the Georgia Water Research Institutes Authorization Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-397).

    Proceedings of the 1997 Georgia Water Resources Conference, March 20-22, 1997, Athens, Georgia.procedure for creating a data management system for managing and monitoring environmental compliance of facilities is discussed with the aid of a case study. Client/server technology can be used to support large multi-user and multi-facility information management requirements and various environmental information management needs at different functional levels of the U.S. Postal Service.Sponsored and Organized by: U.S. Geological Survey, Georgia Department of Natural Resources, The University of Georgia, Georgia State University, Georgia Institute of TechnologyThis book was published by the Institute of Ecology, The University of Georgia, Athens, Georgia 30602 with partial funding provided by the U.S. Department of Interior, Geological Survey, through the Georgia Water Research Institutes Authorization Act of 1990 (P.L. 101-397).
