Madera Irrigation District (MID or District) has partnered with Stanford University on groundwater recharge research.
The project involves the assessment of recharge basin performance from both a water quantity and water quality perspective. Stanford University’s assistance includes soils analysis, water quality analysis, and grant funding for the installation of multiple monitoring well fields.
The goal of this partnership is not only to benefit MID, but to benefit water management agencies across the entire Central Valley of California who share similar challenges.
