Optimization of Pumping Rates in the Through-Flow System

7 Optimization of Pumping Rates in the Through-Flow System 

A clear pumping policy has to be formulated for every region in accordance with its hydrological structure. It seems useful to sum up the accepted policy in terms of red lines of maximum tolerable lowering of the water table and maximum tolerable concentrations of water quality key parameters. These parameters have to be monitored routinely. Electric conductivity and water table may be monitored continuously by instruments placed in observation wells or pumping wells. In the latter case, the respective
