Detailed Summary

The representative geologic profile for the Battle Creek region shows a surficial sequence of unconsolidated glacial deposits composed of varying sand, gravel, and clay, typically extending down to 60-70 ft depth. Below this, wells consistently encounter competent Marshall Sandstone, often water-bearing, extending for several tens of feet, sometimes interbedded with or underlain by thin shale or consolidated formations. Most private residential wells are completed at 80-120 ft to obtain 10-20 GPM. Municipal and irrigation wells may be much deeper, exceeding 140 ft. Static water levels are commonly 18-32 ft below grade.
