Evidence guide

Nearby Well Logs and Groundwater Context for Environmental Screening

Nearby wells can help explain why groundwater context matters in a site screen, especially when regulated facilities or soil conduits appear nearby.

Nearby well evidence for environmental groundwater context

Groundwater context should be evidence-linked and confidence-banded, not overclaimed.

Subsurface evidence

Nearby wells and logs can add context about depth, static water, and local formations that a reviewer may want to consider.

Clear boundaries

The report should never turn a proxy into a final groundwater conclusion without review.

Source appendix

Evidence inputs

Nearby water wells

DrillerDB evidence

Shows wells that may matter for receptor and groundwater context.

Limitation: A nearby well does not prove contamination or impact.

Static water and lithology clues

DrillerDB evidence

Supports a groundwater sensitivity proxy.

Limitation: Proxy reasoning must remain separate from final professional judgment.

Report logic

What the page should teach

  • Show nearby wells by distance band.
  • Flag shallow-water-table context when evidence supports it.
  • Preserve all source rows in the appendix.

Human-review boundary

  • The report does not model contaminant transport.
  • The report does not replace hydrogeologic review.
  • Records may be incomplete or uneven by county.
