Abundant Water Resources from the Ogallala Aquifer Sustain Available Land in Gage County
3 Jul 2024
Gage County’s available land is perfectly complemented by the bountiful Ogallala Aquifer. Well-established water infrastructure taps into the abundant water supply and the Big Blue River, which cuts through the heart of Beatrice.

Municipal services can handle more than five times the average daily water demand and double the historical peak demand.
Review NGage’s full report on Gage County’s natural resources for more information on the aquifer and everything else Beatrice offers.
