The Regina Aquifer, a Pleistocene outwash complex
of Condiean age, underlies about 90 square miles of the
Assiniboine River Plain. A method of safe yield determination,
based on the application of Darcy's Law to natural, steady,
linear flow through a classical aquifer, is developed and its
limitations are defined. Based on this method the maximum
safe yield of the aquifer is estimated to be 5,500,000
Imperial gallons per day.
