Detailed Summary
Analysis of representative well logs from Muskegon County shows a dominant sequence of surficial dry sand (10–20+ ft), then a mix of finer water-bearing sands or occasional clay/silt layers (10–20 ft thick), and most often a significant, lower water-bearing sand or sand/gravel formation extending to final depths from 40 to 90 ft. Thin clay/silt lenses (3–10 ft) are frequent but discontinuous. The most productive aquifers are consistently sands and sand/gravel either above or below minor confining clay/silt layers. Static water levels in wells average 10–20 ft below grade. A typical residential well for adequate and sustainable yield (5–15+ GPM) is generally completed at 45–70 ft, with high-capacity wells extending to 70–90 ft.
Expected Geological Layers
| Depth (Feet) | Formation Type | Description | Characteristics |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0 – 13 ft | Sand | Surficial dry sand, loose to medium; occasional topsoil cover | Color: Light brown / brown Hardness: Loose |
| 13 – 26 ft | Sand (wet/moist or medium/fine, often water bearing) | Transitional sand, fine to medium; becomes water bearing downward | Color: Brown or grayish Hardness: Medium |
| 26 – 36 ft | Clay/Silt (interbedded, sometimes absent) | Clay or silt, sometimes with thin wet/fine sand lenses; confining layer in places | Color: Gray Hardness: Firm/plastic |
| 36 – 45 ft | Fine/Very Fine Sand (water bearing) | Water-bearing fine to very fine sand, productive aquifer | Color: Light gray/tan Hardness: Medium |
| 45 – 70 ft | Sand/Sand & Gravel (coarse, water bearing) | Major aquifer: coarse sand and sand & gravel, abundant water, best yields | Color: Brown/tan with gravel Hardness: Medium to loose |
| 70 – 90 ft | Sand (water bearing, locally with gravel) | Deeper extension of water-bearing sand and gravel; highly productive at some sites | Color: Tan, possible mix with gravel Hardness: Loose |
