Detailed Summary

The representative geological profile for the Petersburg region consists predominantly of surficial sand (often brown or yellow) alternating with clay to depths between 10-40 feet. These are typically underlain by extended clay units, commonly reaching total thicknesses of 30-80 feet below grade. At depths of approximately 30-80 feet, most logs encounter consolidated bedrock—primarily limestone, sometimes with a transitional sandstone or shale above. The most common residential wells are finished in the upper limestone or occasionally associated water-bearing sand and gravel. Static water levels average between 35 and 50 feet below ground surface. A typical residential well depth for 5-15+ GPM is around 60-80 feet. High-capacity or greater-assurance wells generally finish between 80-110 feet.
