We support research
PBAC maintains a network of water level monitoring instruments throughout the Palouse Basin, and funds a variety of research projects aimed at gaining increased understanding of the behavior of the basin aquifer systems.
Alternative Water Supply Study
A Consultant Team was hired by the Palouse Basin Aquifer Committee (PBAC) to evaluate previously studied water supply projects to determine the most promising supply projects for meeting existing and future supply needs in the Palouse groundwater basin. The evaluation study was jointly funded by PBAC and a grant from the Idaho Water Resource Board.
