No on HB 2186 and SB 5995

SAJB is opposed to House Bill 2186 and Senate Bill 5995. Spokane County and the State of Washington have spent tens of millions of dollars installing a public sewer system to replace private septic systems that were polluting the Spokane Valley Rathdrum Prairie Aquifer.

2012 SVRP Aquifer GSI Groundwater Flow Model

The 2012 SVRP Aquifer ground-water update and expanded model was commissioned by the City of Spokane, SAJB and the WA Department of Health Drinking Water. Based on the 2007 USGS modelling, it uses Microfem technology and a resolution that supports wellhead protection planning. John Porcello, Senior Groundwater Hydrologist at GSI Water Solutions, presented the model as a tool for wellfield-scale analysis as well as groundwater source management.
