The latest installations brought to 1,820 the number of wells that have been equipped with flow meters to help members of the Delta Sustainable Water Resource Task Force determine how best to manage the alluvial aquifer that supplies most of the irrigation water used by Delta farmers. The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality said farmers have installed flow meters on the 10 percent of the permitted irrigation wells needed in each of the 19 Delta counties to meet a goal set to avoid mandatory monitoring of the wells.
