| Short Description |
The residents of Lopez Island depend almost entirely on ground water for domestic needs. As a result, there is considerable concern about the quality and continued availability of ground water supplies on the island and in San Juan County in general. Of special concern is seawater intrusion, the movement of saltwater into freshwater aquifers. | |
