Agenda Item Summary:
Rapid City has an annual agreement with the U.S. Department of the Interior and the USGS to study and monitor water resources. This agreement covers important services like maintaining stream gaging stations, collecting and analyzing groundwater data, using a groundwater flow model, monitoring stormwater, and checking the quality of water in Rapid Creek. These services are essential for managing the City’s water supply, protecting water quality, and preparing for potential flooding or droughts. Rapid City will contribute $150,000 to the program, which will be matched by $98,000 from USGS cooperative funds.
