The entire population of the Wood River Valley depends on ground water for domestic supply,
either from domestic or municipal-supply wells, rapid population growth since the 1970s has
raised concerns about the continued availability of ground and surface water to support existing
uses and streamflow. To help address these concerns, ground- and surface-water conditions
in the area before and during the population growth that started in the 1970s was evaluated.
This dataset helps analyze trends in ground-water data, documents 2006 hydrologic conditions,
and is used to compare 2006 and historic ground-water data of the Wood River Valley of
south-central Idaho. It represents ground-water conditions in the unconfined aquifer during
October 2006 constructed from 88 water-level measurements in the main valley and 8 tributary
canyons.
This dataset documents the partial-development ground-water conditions for the unconfined
aquifer in the Wood River Valley, and in comparison with the 2006 ground-water data to
estimate changes in water levels between the two periods.

Contour attributes were derived from processes described in USGS SIR2007-5258 and visually checked for correctness.
All contours were visually evaluated and reviewed to be hydrologically consistent and correct.
Contour extents were derived and coded as described in USGS SIR 2007-5258.
All processes fully described in SIR2007-5258.
