ELABORATION OF HYDROGEOLOGICAL STUDIES TO EVALUATE THE CONDITIONS FOR THE EXPLORATION OF WATER SYSTEMS GUARANI, BAURU AND SERRA GERAL AT UGHRI 12 - BPG

LARHIA closes a new Project in 2021 entitled "Elaboration of Hydrogeological Studies for the Evaluation of the Exploration Conditions of the Guarani, Bauru and Serra Geral Aquifer Systems at UGRHI - BPG" , together with the Baixo Pardo / Grande Internal Watershed Committee.

The Project's main focus is to evaluate the conditions of use of groundwater in the Guarani Aquifer System (SAG) in order to understand the causes of the downgrade that has been observed in the levels of the aquifer, as well as to evaluate the conditions of use of groundwater as a whole.
