2 Title: Infiltration Gallery Testing for Integration into Dual Purpose Irrigation Systems Managed Aquifer Recharge in Walla Walla River Basin, Oregon The Walla Walla Basin is a bi state basin in northeastern Oregon and southeastern Washington, through which flows the Walla Walla River, a primary passage and rearing habitat for endangered trout as well as the focus of tribal efforts at Chinook salmon and lamprey restoration. The middle section of the Walla Walla River system consists of a series of distributary channels that direct water away from the main channel, and ultimately re emerge in the main channel downstream while the underlying alluvial aquifer demonstrates strong connectivity between the surface and groundwater. Historical human activities including the straightening of natural river channels, the lining of irrigation canals as well as dramatic increases in groundwater withdrawals have resulted in declining groundwater levels, reduced natural spring flows, and excessive flow losses through seepage in losing portions of the Walla Walla River. Recognizing these trends, the Walla Walla Basin Watershed Council (WWBWC) in partnership with the Hudson Bay District Improvement Company (HBDIC) decided in 2003 and 2004 to build a pilot alluvial managed aquifer recharge (MAR) project. A portion of this pilot project site has been dedicated to developing tools for integrating managed aquifer recharge (MAR) into more efficient surface irrigation delivery systems. These tools would serve the dual purpose of both improving surface water delivery efficiency while mitigating for the lost recharge resulting from the piping and lining of leaky irrigation canals. Four types of subsurface materials and designs were chosen to compare the cost of materials relative to their anticipated effective recharge rates and how those rates may decrease through time due to clogging. Infiltration gallery # 1 (IG 1) was constructed using 4 inch (101 mm) perforated pipe (ADS) that can be purchased inexpensively from any home builder supply store and its easy installation allows for low installation costs. Infiltration Gallery #2 (IG 2) utilized 4 inch (101 mm) perforated PVC pipe typically used in domestic septic tiling systems. Infiltration Gallery #3 (IG 3) was built with Stormtech Chambers that are open bottomed allowing the water to infiltrate downward. Infiltration gallery #4 (IG 4) utilized Atlantis Raintanks which resemble boxes that are open on all sides allowing for intrachamber water exchange, however their installation costs were the highest of the four designs. Galleries were tested both individually and collectively for a portion of the and recharge seasons (November 1 st through May 15 th ). Average instantaneous recharge rates for a 1086 feet 2 (101 m 2 ) recharge foot print ranged between 0.4 cfs (11.3 l/s) to 1.67 cfs (47.3 l/s) for the four testing galleries. On site piezometer and flow meter monitoring indicates potential declines in volumetric recharge rates between the operational seasons potentially related to clogging, due to suspended solids present in the source water. Other limitations to assessing recharge rates and cost benefits will be discussed including design limitations and the effect of groundwater mounding on gallery operations. Conceptual designs for integration into large scale irrigation systems will be discussed including ideas for innovative methods of gallery maintenance and operations.
