Bone Spring-Victorio Peak Aquifer Groundwater Availability Model (GAM)

In 2008, the El Paso Water Utilities has completed a study to better understand the potential groundwater yield of the Bone Spring-Victorio Peak Aquifer in support of the regional water planning process. This work resulted in the development and calibration of three groundwater models: the first model looked at the regional structural geology; the second model included groundwater isotope geochemistry data; and the third model was a hybrid of the first two models. In 2016, the Texas Water Development Board adopted the hybrid model as the official Bone Spring-Victorio Peak Aquifer Groundwater Availability Model.
