highlight the greatly increased demands on the region’s hydrologic resources and the need to balance the benefits of geothermal and other ground-water development with the long-standing recreational activities of the area. To address such issues, the Long Valley Hydrologic Advisory Com- mittee (LVHAC) was formed in 1987; it is composed of members from private companies and government agencies. A major purpose of the LVHAC is to oversee hydro- logic monitoring focused on early detection of changes in hot springs and streams that might be induced by geother- mal and other ground-water developments. In addition, the committee advises permitting agencies of significant hydro- logic changes and may recommend mitigation actions as appropriate to minimize or perhaps reverse such changes. The advice and suggestions of the LVHAC are not legally binding, but they form the basis for regulatory decisions by permitting agencies, such as the U.S. Forest Service, the Bureau of Land Management, and the Mono County government. The U.S. Geological Survey is responsible for collecting and compiling baseline hydrologic data of the monitoring program and for furnishing this information to the committee on a quarterly basis. Thermal springs are present in the central and east- ern parts of Long Valley Caldera. Most important from an environmental-protection standpoint are the springs in Hot Creek Gorge and at the Hot Creek State Fish Hatch- ery. Monitoring at these and other springs includes con- tinuous or periodic measurements of rate of water flow, temperature, and chemical composition; numerous wells in the region also allow the monitoring of pressure (or water level), temperature, and water chemistry. Similar monitoring data from the production and injection wells of the geothermal development area are collected and com- piled by the powerplant operator (see, for example, http: //lvo.wr.usgs.gov/HydroStudies.html). The formation of the LVHAC facilitated approval of the current geothermal developments in the Long Valley Caldera by providing a forum for discussion of the key issues and concerns relative to potential adverse effects on thermal springs from pumping and injecting geothermal fluid. An important function of the committee is to ensure that economically reasonable, environmentally sound com- promises can be made after consideration of the different concerns of various interest groups.
