Abstract

Approximately 63% of the residents of Davis County rely on ground water as the source of their drinking water. It is estimated that the use of ground water in the county currently approaches .35 billion gallons per year. For comparison, this amount would provide each resident with 104 gallons of water a day during the year. Actually, few if any households use this much water, and the rather large annual per capita use reflects the greater water requirements of the county's industries, agribusinesses, and municipalities.
