Detailed Summary

Representative well logs indicate an upper section dominated by sand (yellow to brown, medium to coarse), with local layers containing clay or small gravel. In many wells, a significant clay or sand-with-clay layer is encountered at intermediate depths (20-40 ft), followed by thick, permeable water-bearing sand or sand/gravel aquifers extending to the base of most wells. Occasional color changes (e.g., blue clay) and thin capillary zones are present but often short-lived. Static water levels are typically 12-20 ft below grade except in rare flowing conditions. Typical residential wells are finished at 50-70 ft; high-capacity wells often finish between 70 and 85 ft, both targeting the base sand/gravel aquifers.
