Detailed Summary
Subsurface geology in Howell is characterized by alternating layers of clay (often gray or yellow), sand (brown, gray, yellow), and sand/gravel mixtures. These sequences reflect glacial and post-glacial deposition. Water-bearing zones are typically found within sand or sand/gravel at intermediate depths, commonly overlain by significant clay layers that provide regional aquitards. In areas drilled deeper, bedrock is encountered, including shale, sandstone, and limestone. Residential wells often set screens in coarse sand/gravel from about 40–110 ft but some wells extend to 150–180 ft when targeting bedrock aquifers or deeper gravels.
Expected Geological Layers
| Depth (Feet) | Formation Type | Description | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 – 12 ft | Clay, sandy/yellow/gray | Mixed glacial till; commonly sandy to silty clay, partly yellow or gray | Color: Yellow/Gray Hardness: Hard-Soft variable |
| 12 – 26 ft | Sand and/or Gravel, brown/yellow | Coarse sand and gravel, sometimes interbedded with fine sand; initial water bearing | Color: Brown/Yellow Hardness: Medium |
| 26 – 43 ft | Clay, sandy/gray | Dense gray or sandy clay, low permeability aquitard | Color: Gray Hardness: Hard |
| 43 – 70 ft | Sand and Gravel, gray/brown | Major water-bearing coarse sand and gravel, prime aquifer for residential supply | Color: Gray/Brown Hardness: Medium |
| 70 – 120 ft | Clay and occasional gravel, gray | Thick sections of gray (soft to hard) clay, sometimes with thin gravel and very fine sand partings | Color: Gray Hardness: Soft-Hard variable |
| 120 – 145 ft | Sand and/or Gravel, fine to coarse | Thin water-bearing coarse/fine-grained sand and gravel beds | Color: Gray Hardness: Medium |
| 145 – 182 ft | Bedrock – Shale/Sandstone/Limestone | Transition into consolidated bedrock (gray sandstone, shale, limestone); some wells finish open to this zone | Color: Gray/Red Hardness: Hard |
