Detailed Summary
The representative geologic profile for the Gowen region, based on multiple sampled household wells, shows a prevalent sequence of surficial clay (including red, brown, and gray varieties), grading into interbedded sand, gravel, and additional clay layers. The most productive aquifers occur within medium to coarse sand and gravel layers, frequently beginning around 40-70 ft and persisting to the full well depth. Some deeper wells exhibit repeated alternations of clay and sand to depths exceeding 100 ft. Static water levels are typically 20-25 ft below grade. Residential wells are generally completed at 50-80 ft for sustainable yields (10-15 GPM), while high-capacity wells extend deeper into thick, clean sand/gravel beds.
Expected Geological Layers
| Depth (Feet) | Formation Type | Description | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 – 7 ft | Clay or Topsoil | Surface layer, ranging from dark topsoil to red/brown/gray clay. May include some silt or loam. | Color: Brown, Black, Red, or Gray Hardness: Soft to Medium |
| 7 – 18 ft | Clay (with occasional silt/loam) | Predominantly clay, sometimes includes loam or silt fractions; may be moist. | Color: Red/Brown/Gray Hardness: Soft to Medium |
| 18 – 40 ft | Sand (with variable gravel/silt) | Fine to medium sand, may transition into sand/gravel mixture. Gradually becoming coarser with depth. | Color: Tan/Yellow/Brown Hardness: Soft |
| 40 – 70 ft | Sand and Gravel (Water Bearing) | Medium to coarse sand intermixed with gravel. This is the main water-bearing horizon for most residential supply. | Color: Gray/Brown/Tan Hardness: Medium |
| 70 – 110 ft | Interbedded Sand and Clay | Alternating beds; sandy zones with some clay/loam interlayers. Coarser zones may be water bearing, especially in deeper/high-capacity wells. | Color: Red/Gray/Brown Hardness: Medium |
| 110 – 150 ft | Sand and Gravel (Deeper Water Bearing) | Predominantly clean sand or sand/gravel mixes. These lower zones are often targeted for high capacity or deeper wells. | Color: Tan/Gray/Brown Hardness: Medium-Soft |
| 150 – 183 ft | Clay with lenses of sand/gravel | Thick clay sequences with occasional sand/gravel beds. Last major aquifer zones found at bottom. | Color: Gray/Red Hardness: Hard to Medium |
