Detailed Summary
Most wells in Flushing Township penetrate surficial sand and clay (often interbedded) ranging from 40-80 ft thick, sometimes containing layers with gravel or stones. Beneath these glacial sediments, bedrock aquifers begin, initially as sandstone—sometimes interbedded with shale or limestone—typically encountered between 80-120 ft. Wells are most often completed in sandstone or mixed sandstone/shale layers, which provide the best yields. Static water levels are commonly between 20-40 ft below grade. Residential wells—targeting yields of 10-20+ GPM—most frequently extend to depths of 140-190 ft.
Expected Geological Layers
| Depth (Feet) | Formation Type | Description | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 – 10 ft | Sand | Fine to medium, locally mixed with silt or clay. | Color: Yellow, tan Hardness: Soft |
| 10 – 60 ft | Clay (with variable sand or stones) | Firm to hard clay, occasional stones or sandy seams. | Color: Gray, blue, brown Hardness: Hard |
| 60 – 80 ft | Sand, gravel, or sandy clay | Mixed sand and gravel, possibly some clay, water-bearing. | Color: Tan, gray Hardness: Medium |
| 80 – 120 ft | Clay with stones or sandy clay | Dense clay, local stones, some sand, acts as aquitard. | Color: Gray, blue Hardness: Hard |
| 120 – 170 ft | Sandstone (locally interbedded shale/limestone) | Water-bearing sandstone, may include stringers of shale or limestone, forms main bedrock aquifer. | Color: Yellow, gray, tan Hardness: Medium-hard |
