Availability of Ground-Water Data for Idaho, Water Year 2006

Abstract

Introduction The Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with Federal, State, and local water agencies, collects a large amount of data each year pertaining to the ground-water resources of Idaho. These data constitute a valuable database for developing an improved understanding of the water resources of the State. Beginning with the 1985 water year and continuing through 2005, data were published in a report series entitled, 'Water Resources Data for Idaho, Ground-Water Data.' Prior to the introduction of that series, historical ground-water information was published in U.S. Geological Survey Water-Supply Papers. In 2006, the ground-water data reporting requirement was discontinued. However, data continue to be available in our databases. This fact sheet serves as an index to ground-water data for 2006.

Compensatory offsetting tool for energy infrastructure

The U.S. Geological Survey and the Habitat and Population Evaluation Team of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service created several tools that enable compensatory offsets for displacement of breeding grassland birds and waterfowl associated with energy infrastructure, including renewable-energy, oil, and gas facilities and roads. The Avian-Impact Offset Method (AIOM) addresses displacement affecting grassland birds and waterfowl. The basis of the AIOM is a calculation that quantifies the displacement of grassland birds and waterfowl associated with energy infrastructure (that is, the disturbance features). The AIOM then estimates the amount of habitat needed to compensate for this displacement. The AIOM converts the number of bird pairs lost owing to avian behavioral avoidance and estimates the site-specific area of grasslands or the number of wetlands needed to compensate for displaced pairs of grassland birds or waterfowl, respectively. Decision-support tools spatially apply the AIOM to estimate grassland and wetland offsets and guide the location of offsetting measures. The AIOM can be applied to offsetting measures, including preserving existing habitat, restoring former habitat, or establishing conservation banks.
