Analysis of historical and current drawdown and production data from the Boise geothermal system. Research technical completion report, 14-08-0001-G1222-02 Item Info

Since 1982 withdrawals from the Boise geothermal aquifer system have increased from less than 300 million to over 600 million gals/yr. Prior to 1983 the system appears to have been in or near equilibrium. Current production levels exceed the ability of the system to recover on an annual basis. Potentiometric levels within the aquifer are declining at increasing rates and a new equilibrium level is not evident. Submitted to the U.S. Geological Survey.
