Well Drillers Near Romeo, Michigan

A geological estimate for the Romeo area.

Detailed Summary

The representative geological profile for the Romeo region is characterized by an upper layer of sand or clay (often intermixed), typically extending to 10–20 ft, underlain by thick clay (often gray, sticky, or containing stones/hardpan) ranging from about 20–100 ft. This is followed by a sand, sand & gravel, or water-bearing sand/gravel zone, found most commonly between ~70 and 150 ft. Some logs show intervals of hardpan or shale interbedded within the major clay sections, and the aquifer is almost exclusively unconfined to semi-confined sand/gravel, yielding typical household production. Static water levels are generally 10–30 ft below ground. Residential wells (yielding 5–15+ GPM) are commonly completed at 70–110 ft, though some suitable sand/gravel may be deeper (to 150–180 ft) in some locations. High-capacity wells often screen deeper sand/gravel at >100 ft. Anomalies/outliers and single-well exceptions were excluded to produce this model.
