Receding DS shores will increase the flow rate of springs and this
will cause severe decline in GW level and thus will deplete the
aquifer

Anticipated Time Period of the project: 2012 – 2017
Rough Estimate Costs of the project: 100,000,000 USD
CONCERNS: High cost per each m3 of water due to high
difference in topographic elevation 1300m (from -400mbsl to
+900masl)
