Description Ground-water pumping on the eastern Snake River Plain and water use in the tributary valleys will ultimately affect flow in the Snake River. Spring flows to the Snake River have declined during the past two decades. The decline in spring and river discharge may be attributed to water-level declines in the Snake River Plain aquifer resulting from the combined effects of changes in aquifer recharge and increases in ground-water pumping. The effects of increased water use at selected locations...
