Groundwater-related news articles over the last month that I am aware of. I provide these as an FYI—I make no guarantees on the accuracy of these reports (despite some occasional editorializing on my part [or my participation in an article!]). I seek to post open-access articles and generally do not include paywall articles, but if I feel like simply knowing that an article exists is useful, I will post it. Some articles reference activities that have come and gone; I post these so readers know what type of activities are going on around the state.
