The Roussillon water tables remain at a very low level
However, the situation remains worrying on tablecloths of Roussillon with very low levels and locally in the Hérault valley (alluvium and Astian sands) and on the south-eastern coast of Corsica.
Overall, the water table level remains very satisfactory over a large part of the territory: 15% of observation points are below monthly normals, 20% are comparable and 65% are above (respectively 12%, 10% and 78% in October 2024).
A more favorable situation than a year ago except for several layers
The situation is more favorable than that observed last year, in November 2023, when only 48% of levels were above monthly normals. Several aquifers, however, observe lower levels than in 2023: Artois tablecloths, Lorraine tablecloths, Tablecloths of the Western Armorican Massif, aquifers of the western Massif Central, numerous layers of the Aquitaine Basin and layers of the eastern Pyrenees.
