Detailed Summary
Based on synthesis of the submitted well records, the most representative geologic sequence in Milford Charter Twp region is a surficial clay (often with sand or gravel), underlain by alternating layers of clay, sand, gravel, or mixed units. Water-bearing horizons are most consistently encountered in deeper sand and/or gravel intervals, commonly below 90-130 ft. Static water level is typically reported between 30-50 ft. Casing is dominantly PVC (5-inch) set to around 100-120 ft. Common drilling method is rotary with bentonite slurry grout. Estimated typical residential well depth is about 130 ft for reliable yield (5-15+ GPM), while high-capacity wells may exceed 160 ft. Outlier and anomalous records were excluded in compilation.
