Top Recommended Actions

Installation Action: Monitor the Idaho Department

of Water Resources process subsequent to, and, as

appropriate, implement actions required from, the

formation of Water District 161.

Installation Action: Share results of the Air Force

Community Partnership/Council on Environmental

Quality Way Ahead Report with stakeholders to

inform and promote consideration of alternative

water management strategies, and encourage

implementation of climate resilience and

engagement partnerships.

Installation Action: Collaborate with city, county,

and state officials to engage regional stakeholders

on water sustainability best management practices.

Water Source:

• Regional Aquifer

Alternate Water Source:

• Snake River

• Develop wells beneath the Bruneau Formation

Current/Future Water Availability:

• Installation has groundwater rights beneath

the installation; with seven active water

supply wells

• Installation’s current average annual usage

is 600 MGY (1,841 AFA) from the aquifer

• At current pumping rates, water supply

wells will be depleted within 12-30 years

• Water levels in the regional aquifer

are declining
