Increasing the efficiency and productivity of the state’s groundwater monitoring program

The South Carolina Department of Natural Resources routinely collects ground-water level data for water-resource assessments and for management and planning purposes. Current standard operating procedures (SOPs) dictate that each well must be visited six times per year or once every two months.
