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).

Primary bacterial diseases are caused by invasion of bacteria that cause disease with no other predisposing factors. Secondary bacterial diseases are caused by invasion of bacteria after a predisposing condition, such as viral infections, stresses, tissue injuries, and dietary upsets.A bacterial disease may affect a single tissue or organ, or it may affect multiple tissues and organs of the animal.econdary bacterial diseases are caused by invasion of bacteria after a predisposing condition, such as viral infections, stresses, tissue injuries, and dietary upsets.
