Detailed Summary

Based on a synthesis of multiple well logs from the Casnovia region and adjacent areas, the typical stratigraphy consists of a surface sand or sandy layer, followed by substantial clay or clay-rich layers often alternating with sand, silty sand, and periodic gravel zones. The most frequent sequence is an upper sand (15–25 ft), a middle thick clay or clay-sand mix (20–60 ft), and a lower sand or sand/gravel aquifer where most productive screens are set (commonly 40–80+ ft). Deeper wells (120–165+ ft) often repeat this alternation and are screened in deeper clean sands. Static water levels usually fall between 5–65 ft below grade, with residential wells typically completed between 50–100 ft (shallow sand aquifers) to 120–165 ft (deeper sands), both providing 10–40 GPM.
