In-depth study of operations and maintenance procedures for surface and groundwater collection and control. Included are procedures for the monitoring of water flow, turbidity, and temperature, as well as the calculation of capacities and flow rates. Exercises will involve field measurement of flow conditions in nearby creeks and lake, calculation of well capacities and stream discharge, interpretation of state well reports, source water assessments, field recognition of recharge and discharge features, and visits to dam and water treatment plants. Field trips will be required.
