Detailed Summary

Analysis of representative Lewiston well logs reveals a stratigraphy dominated by unconsolidated glacial deposits. The uppermost layer is usually sand or sand with gravel, succeeded by mixtures of clay, stones, and sandy materials. Below, thick sand and gravel intervals—often medium to coarse—provide primary water-bearing zones. Occasional interbeds of fine sandy clay or 'gummy' clay appear but are generally not persistent. Water is most consistently encountered in lower coarse sand and gravel, which typically yields sufficient supply for household and moderate high-capacity wells. Most residential wells are screened in these lower intervals, with static water typically at 25-35 ft below grade.
