Detailed Summary

Based on a representative sample of well logs from the White Lake region, the generalized subsurface profile starts with a surface layer of topsoil or brown/gray clay (sometimes sandy or gravelly). This is frequently underlain by alternating sequences of clay (blue, gray, or brown) and sand/sand & gravel aquifers of variable thicknesses. The sand and gravel zones are typically medium to coarse, and are the most consistent aquifers. Most residential supply wells are finished in these aquifers between 40-130 feet, with static water levels commonly ranging from 4-33 feet below grade. Residential wells yielding 10-20 GPM are commonly 60-130 ft deep, while higher capacity wells may reach 135-170 ft.
