Access:  From the intersection of Nevada Highway 160 and Mesquite Avenue, head east on Mesquite Avenue about 2.35 miles.  Turn right into the Nye County Multipurpose Public Safety Training Center.  The well is located within the fenced area, approximately 850 ft southeast of the gated entrance.  Notify Training Center personnel of your presence.  Click on the thumbnail image for a larger view.

Purpose
- Groundwater Conditions in Pahrump Valley:  
NC-GWE-PV-3 is one of five boreholes and wells that were drilled to infill data gaps in the Water Level Monitoring Program (WLMP), especially on the Pahrump Fan.
