Abstract
Groundwater from underground rivers is one of
 the potential raw water sources in th
e karst area. Research to exploit the 
potential sources of water from underground rivers in karst areas 
is very important. U
tilization of water resources should be b
ased on 
technique, environmental and social conditions. The problems are 
to find the groundwater river flows, to design a well installa
tion, to 
determine the feasibility, and to manage the water use. Analysis
 of the results of geological mapping, topography, geophysical 
measurements, drilling, pipeline and electrical survey, and pumpi
ng tests produce the feasibility of the water utilization. Geo
electric 
data indicates there is a satura
ted zone at a depth of about 70-90 m from the su
rface. Well construction 
is implemented by usin
g a 83 
m PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) pipe and a 15 m screen length. Th
e groundwater level remains stable even though it has been pumped 
with a maximum discharge of 5 
liters/sec. Based on the elevation difference fro
m topographic mapping results, the number of boo
ster 
pumps can be calculated. 
Utilization of water from underground ri
vers can overcome the problem of water shortage in dry area.
