SEAFARER Site Survey, Upper Michigan Region. Book 15. Subsurface Water Data

Abstract

A Subsurface Water Data Map has been prepared which shows locations of representative wells within the Study area, depth to water, and the quality of water available. The water table is near the surface with water encountered in most excavations greater than ten feet in depth. Water yields from wells vary considerably throughout the area ranging from a few gallons to tens of gallons per minute. The most promising areas for large scale ground water development appear to be areas of stratified glacial outwash sands and gravels along major streams where yields of several hundred gallons per minute are possible.
