Abstract
The water quality of the Floridan aquifer is in decline in some areas of coastal Georgia and South Carolina due to saltwater intrusion caused from over pumping. This paper's objective is to provide two examples of how the surficial aquifer in Chatham County can be developed for non-potable uses thus conserving the Floridan aquifer.
