Detailed Summary

Based on the synthesis of several well logs from the Homer (Calhoun County) vicinity, the most representative geology consists of a surficial layer of sandy/gravelly clay, transitioning into alternating lenses of sands, gravels, and clays to approximately 90–110 feet. Many wells then reach consolidated formations dominated by sandstone, sometimes interbedded with shale, frequently water-bearing. Drilled depths for residential water supply (5–15+ GPM) typically end in coarse sand/gravel or enter the upper portion of bedrock (sandstone). Static water levels are commonly 13–39 feet below grade. Casing is primarily PVC to the bottom of the unconsolidated zone or just into bedrock. Rotary mud circulation is the standard drilling method, and annular space is grouted to casing depth (typically with bentonite slurry).
