Detailed Summary

Geologic profiles of water wells in St Clair County, MI, show a typical sequence beginning with a thin topsoil, followed by alternating lenses of yellow and gray clay (70-115 ft thick), sometimes interbedded with thin sand or hardpan. Beneath the clay, wells may encounter a water-bearing sand or a hardpan zone (gravel/clay mix), but the most consistent deeper formation is sandstone or, less commonly, shale. Most residential wells obtain 5-15+ GPM from sand/gravel zones or the upper part of the sandstone at depths of 80-130 ft. Static water levels are usually 30-40 ft below grade. Rotary with mud circulation and bentonite/cement grout is standard practice.
