Table 4 lists the safe yield, pumping capacity, aud <br />average withdrawal for each well. The combined 12-hour safe yield of the system is 0.07 mgd. <br /> <br /> Table 6 <br />Well Data (in MGD) for 1992 <br /> <br />* (E) indicates emergency source <br /> <br />Wastewater Discharge Information <br /> <br />As discussed earlier, all collected wastewater from the WSACC members is treated at Rocky River Wastewater <br />Treatment Plant and is discharged into Rocky River (latitude 35°19'02'', longitude 80°32'15").
