• Water exploitaition: groundwater: 6.000 hm3/year. 80% for irrigation • Transferences
Conventionals
Non conventionals
• Managed Aquifer Recharge (MAR) volume 380 hm3/year Palliative techniques
-Savings / Piping efficiency -Runoff decrease -Evaporation decrease -Underground springs capture - Etc.
Special or alternative
• Reuse and recycling: 450 hm3/year
• Desalination: hm3 1.5 /day. Almost 1.000 desal. plants
Introduction
MAR as a Driving Force
Annex 2, Directive 2000/60/CE and its guide document of pressures and impacts analysis, IMPRESS (CEE, 2002), including the “artificial recharge” as a “Driving Force” activity, willing to provoque an impact on any water mass quantity and quality.
Managed Aquifer Recharge or Artificial recharge, MAR or AR?
1. Technicians and scientists in the IAH have been avoiding the term
artificial recharge and instead have been using managed aquifer
recharge for more than a decade.
2. The term “artificial” implies that the water is, in some way, unnatural.
3. We don't call well pumping “artificial discharge”
4. In the USA where the artificial recharge term began, that has now been
replaced in the relevant ASCE Standards Committee, and in various
conferences such as BSMAR (Biennial Symposium on Managed
Aquifer Recharge) by MAR.
5. More citations for Mar than AR
6. MAR advocates and presents an international common terminology for
types of MAR in use, joining older terms as enhanced recharge, water
banking, sustainable underground storage, artificial recharge…

8- Technical conclusions
1. MAR has become a unifying term for a technique which had many different names
2. Most of the inventoried MAR typologies are present in Spain, except levees and underground dams.
3. Devices must be “tailor made” according to aquifers characteristics
4. In Spain the MAR total volume is about 380hm3 per year, most of it “incidental”
5. Broad scope of uses: irrigation, environmental uses, water supply, etc.
6. Most of the injection wells are allocated in karstic aquifers and deep boreholes in semiconfined aquifers
7. A vast number of facilities have been abandoned after a research period
8. Private initiatives and industry are becoming promoters of MAR activity
9. SAT-MAR has severe opposition due to emergent pollutants and the sinergistic effect of spill compounds. There are many other obstacles to overcome so as to improve its acceptance
General conclusions
1. MAR technique is under-utilized in Spain (380 hm3/year) despite a 16% of Spanish terrain is susceptible to be recharged.
2. Ancient technique (experiences from XXII century).
3. Driving force appropriate for environmental purposes and to palliate some adverse climate change impacts.
4. Excellent opportunities for a bigger presence in IWRM schemes, specially for opportunistic (temporal) cases.
5. Each State should be encouraged to promote public participation mechanisms in IWRM, enhance the degree of information and promote new experiences under a shared responsibility context.
6. Technical solutions for current MAR problems are complex and require:
a) High doses of hydro-imagination
b) Research
c) Patience
d) Overcome innovation obstacles

Commission on Managing Aquifer Recharge:
Objectives www.iah.org/recharge
The Commission promotes the securing and expanding of water resources and improving water quality in ways that are appropriate, environmentally sustainable, technically viable, economic and socially desirable.
It encourages research, development and adoption of improved practices for management of aquifer recharge and improving knowledge, skills and capabilities of practitioners, water resources managers and regulators.
The Commission facilitates international exchange of information between members (e.g. via a web page and an email list), by disseminating results of research and practical experience (e.g. via conferences and workshops), raising awareness of MAR among IAH members, related professions and the community, and its members undertaking projects and activities identified in plenaries as important. Aligns with UNESCO IHP-VIII (2014-2021) WATER SECURITY: RESPONSES TO LOCAL, REGIONAL, AND GLOBAL CHALLENGES” STRATEGIC PLAN Focal Area 2.2 - Addressing strategies for management of aquifers recharge
Working Groups
1. Producing a monograph on clogging and
its management – Russell Martin www.iah.org/recharge/clogging.htm
2. improved policies governance of MAR– Sharon Megdal http://www.mdpi.com/journal/water/special_issues/MAR
3. identifying the economics of MAR – Andrew Ross
4. MAR for Development – Yan Zheng
5. Adaption to climate change – Bridget Scanlon
6. Communications and awareness raising on MAR (MAR to MAR-ket) – Enrique F. Escalante & Teresa Leitão

• Inventory on MAR
• Book chapter - 40 years progress in MAR research
• Land management to enhance recharge
• Validation of fate of pathogens in aquifers

Email List
• IAH Australian Chapter and Flinders University of South Australia have maintained this list, which has a relatively stable number of 300 members in 33 countries. A number of emails were sent during 2013 advising of new conferences, workshops, reports and opportunities. We hope non-members of IAH find this helpful and we encourage you to join IAH and enjoy the full benefits of membership. The email list can be joined from the web site (www.iah.org/recharge).
