Desert Rock Energy Project (DREP) Water Resource Study, Sithe Global Power, Navajo Nation – Four Corners Area, NM
A basin-wide hydrogeology study coupled with a groundwater model & a seeps & springs inventory identified a deep 5,000 ft+ aquifer (the Morrison Aquifer). Test wells were subsequently drilled which proved the resource was viable. If developed properly, the wells could sustain the proposed 4,500MW coal fired power plant for its intended life without adverse impacts to the overlying aquifer or springs which the local Navajo nation tribes rely on.
