Groundwater Program - Edmonton-Calgary Corridor

Alberta Geological Survey Geology Podcasts

Alberta Geological Survey and Alberta Environment are collaborating to map and understand the province's groundwater resources. A team of geologists and technologists will map the extent of the major aquifers; characterize the physical properties of the aquifers; quantify the chemical properties of the water within these aquifers; assess current groundwater use associated with these aquifers; and predict the long-term effects on groundwater and surface-water resources when using groundwater from these aquifers. The team plans to complete this work within the next 15 years.
