Description:

This dataset was used in the Farmlands/Ranchlands EEMS model to help determine areas of least conflict with industrial scale photovoltaic solar installations.

We used the WA Department of Ecology, Geographic Water Information System data on groundwater wells.

This dataset is a selection of the most reliable records

Selection: Wells that have been confirmed and unconfirmed but marked as “All-right”

Location_CD = 'C' OR Location_CD = 'G' OR Location_CD = 'UA' OR Location_CD = 'WA'



Dataset was used as a model input for the Washington Columbia Plateau Least-Conflict Solar Project.
