Abstract

OKI Regency is one of the developing districts. Along with this development, the need for water continues to increase. One of the sources of water used is groundwater use. Using groundwater not in accordance with the principles of good groundwater treatment can cause negative impacts. In managing these water resources, data on groundwater potential in OKI Regency could be needed so that by knowing the groundwater potential, groundwater resources could be utilized/exploited optimally, while the negative impact of groundwater extraction could be minimized. Based on groundwater flow modelling in Lempuing District, OKI Regency has one catchment area. In Lempuing District, OKI District was contained in an unconfined aquifer composed of tuff sandstone sediment units. The groundwater flow pattern tends to follow the surface contour of an area; in the lempuing area, it has a water flow movement from north to south with variations from west to east. Based on the administrative map, the location of the catchment area is in the villages of Bumiarjo, Mulya Jaya and Suka Mulya.
