Overview
The Solinst Model 800 Low Pressure Packers inflate with a hand pump and are available in 1.8" and 3.9" (46 mm and 99 mm) diameters. Typical inflation pressures for the 1.8" (46 mm) packers are from 20–40 psi (140–275 kPa) above hydrostatic pressure, and from 20–30 psi (140–205 kPa) for the 3.9" (99 mm) packers.
Design
The Packers utilize a gland of black carbon reinforced rubber (BCR) on a Sch 80 PVC body. They are lowered on a support cable or a rigid PVC drop pipe. The inflation line is standard LDPE tubing and connects to the packers using a simple push fitting.
Applications
Primarily for short-term use in 2" and 4" (51 mm and 102 mm) monitoring wells, they can also be used in smooth boreholes and wells with 1.9–5" (48–127 mm) inside diameters. If a rigid drop tube is not required for the application, it is recommended that a safety line be attached to the eyebolt provided. The Solinst Model 103 Tag Line provides a convenient, graduated support cable that can be used for this purpose, as well as for measuring placement depth.
Use
Solinst packers are ideal for use with Solinst Bladder Pumps or Double Valve Pumps, which can be easily attached above the packers. The water inlet can be below a single packer, or through perforated pipe fitted between straddle packers. For hydraulic conductivity testing, Solinst Leveloggers can also be suspended, either below or between packers, from the eyebolt on the bottom of the packer.

New map shows significant groundwater depletion in Central California
Groundwater level data collected by a Central California county shows significant drops during the past 12 years, according to a San Luis Obispo Tribune article. Data shows that groundwater has dropped by a minimum of 70 feet from 1997 to 2009 in the Paso Robles area of Central California. In the past four years the areas of most significant decline have expanded north and south. Drought and agricultural withdrawals are the likely culprits for the groundwater decline. Some advocates are calling for more responsible water use by vineyards in the area, while farmers note that the recent drought did not help the situation.

Angler-Driven Citizen Science: Monitoring Black Bass Populations in Arkansas
In Arkansas, the rugged terrain of the Ozark and Ouachita Mountains dominates the north and west, eventually yielding to the vast, fertile flatlands of the Mississippi River Delta to the east. Hundreds of reservoirs and lakes punctuate the landscape, while swift streams snake through the valleys and hills, eventually giving way to the slow-moving rivers and bayous in the south. The waterways of the state are teeming with life. Black bass dominate most of these ecosystems and have drawn anglers for centuries. The most sought-after fish in one of the country's most prominent fishing states, Arkansas treasures its black bass populations.

New Buoy Boosts White Lake’s Water Quality Monitoring and Conservation
White Lake in Western Michigan is a vestige of North America’s glacial past, and gets its name from an interpretation of the Indian, “Wabish-Sippe,” meaning the river with white clay. The twin towns of Whitehall and Montague, which nestle on White Lake’s shore, have shared a close connection with the lake since their foundation–from the growth of the lumbering industry, to industrializsation, the expansion of tourism, and most recently, environmental protection. The White Lake Association (WLA) was founded in 1988 by residents concerned about proposed development at the lake’s northern end.
