Detailed Summary
Based on a synthesis of 7 well logs in the greater Fowler region (including adjacent Gratiot, Clinton, and Ionia counties), the most typical stratigraphic sequence includes: an upper surficial layer of topsoil/sand and gravel, followed by thick clay or clay with stones, then a major sand and gravel aquifer zone, and deeper sequences may include more clay, shale and sandstone. Nearly all wells are completed in sand and gravel or, for deeper/high-capacity wells, in sandstone layers. Lithology colors are generally brown or gray, with sand/gravel layers described as unconsolidated and clay relatively stiff to soft. Residential wells (5–15+ GPM) most commonly reach the upper sand/gravel aquifer between 70–100 ft; high capacity or bedrock wells may be deeper (150–245 ft). Static water levels range 10–30 ft for residential, ~72 ft at a single high-capacity site.
Expected Geological Layers
| Depth (Feet) | Formation Type | Description | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 – 5 ft | Topsoil / Sandy Gravel / Muck | Brown sand & gravel, possible organic muck or topsoil. Unconsolidated. | Color: Brown/Gray Hardness: Soft |
| 5 – 20 ft | Sand & Gravel (w/stones) | Unconsolidated sand and gravel, sometimes with stones. Main shallow permeable layer. | Color: Brown to gray Hardness: Loose |
| 20 – 60 ft | Clay (with occasional stones, sandy or mixed) | Predominantly brown or gray clay, can include stones or sand lenses. Dense, low permeability. | Color: Brown/Gray Hardness: Stiff to soft |
| 60 – 85 ft | Sand & Gravel | Main sand and gravel aquifer; target for most residential and moderate-yield wells. | Color: Gray to brown Hardness: Loose |
| 85 – 135 ft | Clay (with stones or minor gravel) | Dense clay, often gray, with possible stones; low-permeability confining unit. | Color: Gray Hardness: Stiff |
| 135 – 170 ft | Sand & Gravel (deep) | Gravelly sand and sand aquifer; target for deeper high capacity or irrigation wells. | Color: Gray to brown Hardness: Loose |
| 170 – 215 ft | Clay, Shale, or Claystone (locally) | Gray-black clay, minor shale and claystone; regional confining or semi-confining unit. | Color: Gray/Black Hardness: Moderate-hard |
| 215 – 245 ft | Sandstone (locally includes shale or hardpan) | Fractured or weakly cemented sandstone, occasional shale partings. Bedrock aquifer for deep/municipal wells. | Color: Brown/Gray/White Hardness: Hard |
