Detailed Summary
Based on available well log data in the Bellaire region, the most representative geologic sequence is as follows: A thick upper layer of coarse sand and gravel (approx. 150 ft), underlain by a substantial grey clay layer (~75 ft), then a mixed sand and clay zone (~10 ft), capped by a deeper, water-bearing fine to medium sand layer (~20 ft). Static water levels are typically deep, near 150 ft below grade. Residential wells are commonly cased to about 240 ft, with screened intervals targeting the basal sand aquifer. The dominant drilling method is rotary with mud circulation, and wells are finished with PVC casing and bentonite grouting.
