Prescott’s overflowing lakes now benefiting groundwater recharge
Overflowing lakes help augment groundwater

City of Prescott employees John Johnson, left, and Al Fishback open the valve that will allow water that is spilling over the Watson Lake Dam to flow into the underground pipeline that transports water to the city’s recharge field near the airport. The valve, which is located off Highway 89, is expected to divert about eight million gallons per day from Granite Creek.
