Detailed Summary

Across the sampled Kaukauna region, well logs most commonly report a surficial layer of clay (sometimes with gravel), underlain by variable but present hardpan or gravel, followed by substantial limestone (or dolomite) bedrock. Sandstone is encountered in some, especially deeper wells, occasionally interbedded with additional limestone units. Shale is rarely seen and generally thin if present. Most residential wells are drilled into the upper few hundred feet of limestone or into the top of the sandstone layer, yielding reliable production at 5-20 GPM.
