Figure 1: Location of the Edwards Aquifer in relation to the Balcones fault zone and other physiographic features. Note how the aquifer cuts across the surface drainage basins. Figure 3: Topography and rainfall of the central segment of the Edwards Aquifer (modified from Woodruff and Abbott, 1979).he dominant geologic feature in the region is the Balcones fault zone, a system of en echelon, mainly down-to-the-coast, normal faults that extend about 545 km from Del Rio on the Mexican border to near Waco in north-central Texas.
CRE are bacteria that are resistant to most antibiotics due to the production of an enzyme called carbapenemase. Enterobacteriaceae is a family of bacteria and many of these bacteria live in our environment (such as soil or water).Some of them can get into our bodies and cause pneumonia, kidney and bladder infections, and bloodstream infections.nterobacteriaceae is a family of bacteria and many of these bacteria live in our environment (such as soil or water).

Enterobacter Aerogenes. Enterobacter aerogenes, part of the Enterobacteriaceae Family, is a rod-shaped bacteria that causes bacterial infections, and is usually acquired in a hospital or hospital-type atmospheres.hese become âdrug resistant bacteriaâ or âsuperbugs.â. Enterobacter aerogenes are small, white in color, and have flagella surrounding it making it motile. It is Gram-negative and anaerobic. They are seen throughout nature, including fresh water, sewage plants, and vegetables.
