11 AAC 93.400 - Boundaries of the adjudication area
(a) Before
initiating an adjudication under
AS
46.15.165, the commissioner will identify in
writing the geographic and hydrologic boundaries and the hydrologic resources
of the adjudication area. The written identification will
(1) describe the interaction and hydrologic
communication between the surface water drainage systems and the ground water
flow systems;
(2) identify the
surface water topographic drainage divide and the boundaries of ground water
aquifer systems on the most detailed United States Geological Survey map
available for the basin;
(3)
describe the geographic and hydrologic boundary and the area in square
miles;
(4) describe how the
boundary and area size were determined;
(5) collect and summarize available stream
discharge and ground water data and determine, where possible, mean monthly and
annual stream discharge, high and low flows, duration curves, current water
use, and the aquifer's yield; and
(6) summarize ongoing and planned hydrologic
or hydrogeologic investigations in the area.
(b) The commissioner will, in his or her
discretion, alter the boundaries identified in (a) of this section as needed
after an adjudication is initiated under
11 AAC 93.410.
