RecordLow In Ground Water
The report, the first in a proposed series of water-level reports, contains the records of 767 wells in 74 counties. Measurements of these water levels were made by the Federal Geological Survey in cooperation with the State Geological Survey of Kansas, the Division of Water Resources of the State Board of Agriculture, the Division of Sanitation of the State Board of Health, and the City of Wichita. The cooperative program was integrated with the program of the U.S. Department of Interior for the development of the Missouri Basin.

During 1956, according to the United States Weather Bureau, stations in 44 of the 105 counties of the state received the least annual precipitation of record. Six of the nine Weather Bureau climatic sections of the state received the least annual precipitation in 70 years.
Pumping for irrigation has increased greatly in recent years in
western Kansas and in the valleys of Kansas, Republican, Smoky Hill, and Arkansas Rivers. In areas of heavy pumping for irrigation and municipal use, the ground-water levels declined sharply during 1956 because of the combined effects of the pumping and drought. In areas' of little pumping the water levels declined as a result of the drought.
In "Ground-Water Levels in Observation Wells in Kansas, 1956" by V. C. Fishel and Betty J. Mason, changes in water levels are discussed for western Kansas, central Kansas, and eastern Kansas. The fluctuations of the water levels are summarized in 22 figures and 5 tables.
Copies of the 158-page report issued as Bulletin 125 may be obtained from the State Geological Survey at KU.
