Using a map to show aquifers in Yankton County, Dan Klimisch told Yankton City Commissioners they need to be aware of the connections between ground and surface water……….

Klimisch, Chairman of the James River Water Development District, says it becomes more of an issue with the city moving to wells as the primary water source…..

Klimisch says there are water sources dealing with run off issues…..

Klimisch says at the very least, no large animal production unit should be built on top of the shallow aquifers.
