Groundwater Elevation in Salinas Valley Basin

Summary

The report provides a regional-scale approximation of the groundwater surface in the Salinas Valley Basin, based on available hydrogeological data. It illustrates general groundwater flow patterns in the 180-Foot, East Side Shallow, Forebay, and Upper Valley Aquifers. The data is represented by 10-ft groundwater elevation contours above and below sea level. The report is intended to provide a general understanding of groundwater flow patterns and should not be interpreted as precise or localized features.
