The overuse of groundwater in coastal areas of Taiwan has caused serious land subsidence, seawater intrusion, and soil salinification. Artificial lakes are one of the alternatives that increase groundwater water resources. The Pingtung Plain is one of the most bountiful groundwater resource areas in Taiwan. The grey correlation method was used to evaluate the four optimal sites in the Pingtung Plain. Evaluations were based on hydraulic conductivity, the amount and quality of source water, the distance between the potential artificial lake site and the source water intake position, and the quantity and quality of gravel dug from the potential artificial lake site. Based on groundwater recharge and water storage, the grey correlation method showed that site D (Dar-Shiang-Yung) was the best choice.
