Summary:Video is available on the UofAZCALS YouTube channel. === About 5% of Arizona's population depends on private wells for fresh water and more than 40% of our annual water use comes from Arizona's aquifers. Following a brief introduction to regulations, requirements and equipment used for drilling a private well in Arizona, this video presents the geologic origins of Arizona's aquifer materials with illustrations and pictures of AZ aquifers. Finally, aquifers are ranked by their ability to store and produce water.
