Detailed Summary

A representative geologic profile for Harrisville, based on well log synthesis, shows an upper unconsolidated sand or sand/clay interval, commonly 15–20 ft thick, followed by variable sand or sand-clay interbeds. A regional clay layer, around 20–50+ ft thick, typically underlies the sand and is then succeeded by a lower water-bearing sand or sandy zone. Some logs note deeper consolidated water-bearing material below this second sand. Most wells draw from the lower water-bearing sand at depths of 60–90 ft. Static water levels vary, usually 15–50+ ft below grade. This profile is well-suited for domestic production of 10–20 GPM at typical finished depths of 70–90 ft.
