Detailed Summary

Based on sampled well logs from Corunna and surrounding areas, the generalized subsurface profile consists of an upper clay layer (usually brown or yellow), often with an intermediate sand/gravel zone, which is a common water-bearing layer. This is followed by a substantial gray clay or till, sometimes containing boulders, and, at greater depths, alternating or interbedded shale and sandstone bedrock. Most residential wells target the sand/gravel (where present) or the upper bedrock (shale/sandstone) for water production. Typical residential wells achieve 5-15+ GPM at depths between 80 and 130 ft. Higher capacity wells or those seeking strong bedrock yields may be drilled to 150–200 ft.
