Detailed Summary

Based on multiple well logs from the Fremont area, the representative geologic section consists of a surficial sand or sand mixed with clay layer, followed by significant sequences of clay with occasional sand/gravel interbeds. This unconsolidated package is underlain by sandstone bedrock, which is the standard aquifer zone. Typical wells for residential use are cased to near the sandstone and drilled slightly into it to achieve yields of 5-25 GPM, with larger capacity wells extending deeper as needed. Outliers such as granite bedrock are rare and excluded from this profile.
