Update DFC Compliance Document• Reason:
‐ Comments from neighboring GCDs‐ Comments from DFC Committee Meetings‐ DFCs have changed (new management plan)
• Response: ‐ Updated document to submit for Board
approval‐ Additional data transparency steps (outlined
in this presentation)

Update DFC Compliance Document
• Result:‐ Document is ready for Board
review/approval‐ New Sparta DFC (28 feet instead of 30 feet)
causes 50% threshold to be exceeded (result based on water levels from 3 wells)
‐ New Yegua‐Jackson PDL splits Yegua and Jackson aquifers, but evaluated as one aquifer based on data scarcity.

Outline
• Update DFC Compliance Document to submit for Board approval
• On‐going Coordination with neighboring GCDs • Creation of up‐to‐date Water Level maps• Creation of individual hydrographs for every well

Coordination with neighboring GCDs
• Reason:‐ Comments from neighboring GCD (BVGCD)‐ Aquifer assignments for BVGCD wells
• Response: ‐ Data swap and phone discussions with Alan
Day (BVGCD GM) & district hydrologist‐ Recalculation of POSGCD DFCs and PDLs
with adjusted aquifer assignments

• Most aquifer assignment adjustments were for wells intersecting Brazos River Alluvium
• Steep topography near river doesn’t get captured in large GAM grid cells
• BVGCD bases aquifer assignments on interpretation of well logs

Coordination with neighboring GCDs• Result:
‐ Different aquifer assignments almost all near Brazos River & in BRAA
‐ Updates to aquifer assignments had minor impact on calculated average drawdown
• Planned Activities: ‐ Continue to review aquifer assignments for
monitoring wells ‐ Continue coordinating with BVGCD and
other neighboring districts

Creation of up‐to‐date Water Level maps• Reason:
‐ Comments from Board & public‐ Data from new monitor wells is not used for
DFCs (don’t have 2000 water level)‐ Provides useful information to stakeholders
& improves transparency of information used for aquifer management
• Response: ‐ Create yearly water level maps by aquifer

Creation of up‐to‐date Water Level Maps
• Result:‐ Water level maps provide year‐by‐year
update using most recent WLs

Creation of individual hydrographs
• Reason:‐ DFC compliance calculations can be skewed
by having too few wells‐ District‐wide averages make it difficult to
identify potential areas of concern.
• Response: ‐ Create individual hydrographs for each DFC
monitoring well.

• Results:‐ Individual hydrographs increase
transparency of DFC & PDL compliance ‐ Provides detailed info for identifying
potential areas of concern.
