“…Although the regional aquifer contains a large amount of water in storage, natural recharge is small relative to the quantity of water pumped (Izbicki 2007). Water level declines in the regional aquifer in excess of 20 m have occurred as a result of pumping, and a pumping depression has developed west of the Mojave River along Oro Grande Wash near Victorville (Smith 2002; Smith et al 2004; Stamos et al 2004).…”

“…These investigations include a geologic reconnaissance and test drilling program at the base Worts, 1952[2001]), a geology and groundwater appraisal of the base and surrounding area Worts, 1953[2001]), an evaluation of the groundwater resources of the base and surrounding area (Schaefer, 1978), a Bouger gravity anomaly map for the base and surrounding area (Moyle, 1984), an evaluation of the geohydrology and the potential for artificial recharge in the aquifers underlying the base (Akers, 1986), an evaluation of the geohydrology and the groundwaterflow simulation of the Surprise Spring subbasin (Londquist and Martin, 1991), preliminary geological maps of the base Morton, 1994, 1995), regional water-table maps of the Morongo groundwater basin (Trayler and Koczot, 1995;Mendez and Christensen, 1997;Smith and Pimentel, 2000; Faults modified from Schaefer, 1979;Bortugno, 1986;Londquist and Martin,1991;Cox and Wilshire, 1993;and J.C. Matti and G.I. Dixon, U.S. Geological Survey, written commun., 1994 ca3236_Figure 02 Smith and others, 2004;andothers, 2004, 2007), a gravity map of the Morongo groundwater basin (Roberts and others, 2002), an evaluation of the geohydrologic framework, recharge estimates, and groundwater flow in the Joshua tree area (Nishikawa and others, 2004), an evaluation of the source, movement, and age of ground water in the western part of the Mojave Desert (Izbicki, 2004;Izbicki and Michel, 2004), and an evaluation of the source and movement of helium in the eastern Morongo groundwater basin (Kulongoski and others, 2005).…”
