Three groundwater flow models, using MODFLOW-2000, SEAWAT, and SHARP model codes, were used to evaluate plans to supply potable and non-potable water to residents and businesses of Cape May County, New Jersey until at least 2050. The ideal plan would meet projected demands and minimize adverse effects on currently used sources of potable, non- potable, and ecological water supplies. The U.S. Geological Survey used two previously developed groundwater flow models, as well as a newly developed groundwater flow model, to evaluate the shallow and deep aquifer systems in Cape May County. The groundwater flow in the shallow and deep aquifer systems of Cape May County were simulated separately. Flow in the shallow aquifers...
Three existing groundwater flow models, using MODFLOW-2000, SEAWAT, and SHARP model codes, were used by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) to determine the effects of increased withdrawals, and shifts of withdrawals between 2 aquifers, on the limited water resources in the Cape May County, New Jersey. Saltwater intrusion and declining water levels have been a water-supply problem in Cape May County for decades. Several communities in the county have only one aquifer from which freshwater withdrawals can be made, and that sole source is threatened by saltwater intrusion and (or) substantial declines in water levels caused by groundwater withdrawals. Growth of the year-around and summer tourism populations have caused...
