Aquifer Characterization, Recharge Modeling and Groundwater Flow Modeling for Well Capture Zone Analysis in the Oliver Area of the Southern Okanagan, BC

Author:  M.W. Toews and D.M. Allen

Date Published:  Aug 2007

Report ID:  16069

Audience:  Government and Public

Aquifer characterization, recharge modeling and groundwater flow modeling are undertaken for the arid region of the south Okanagan Basin near Oliver, British Columbia. The primary objectives of the study are to map the distribution of geologic units in the study area with the aim of constructing a 3-dimensional architecture model of the aquifer(s); to quantify and map the spatial distribution of recharge to the aquifer(s) within the sub-region; to construct and calibrate a three-dimensional groundwater flow model that can be used to simulate groundwater conditions in the Oliver region; and to construct a local scale groundwater model for the Town of Oliver to obtain well capture zones for municipal wells.
