Abstract

A project has been undertaken to determine the location of faults and their roles as conduits or barriers to fluid flow in the Mesilla basin, West Texas and Southern New Mexico. This study area has been selected because it has good well control and easy access and serves as an important aquifer for the El Paso urban region. The study has focused on finding smaller faults within the basin, which are believed to be a major control on ground water flow.
