Detailed Summary

Wells in the Maple region typically encounter an initial layer of sand or dirty sand from surface to about 10–20 ft, followed by a substantial zone of clay, hardpan, or silty material extending to approximately 70–100 ft. Below this, bedrock is most commonly encountered, with either basalt/trap rock or sandstone being observed stretching down to reported depths of 180–300 ft. The first significant water-bearing unit is usually the sand/hardpan-capped upper bedrock, often basalt. Static water levels are shallow to moderate (15–50 ft), but deeper bedrock wells frequently report water tables below 70–100 ft. A typical residential well supplying 5–15+ GPM is completed at around 80–140 ft, sometimes deeper for basalt wells. High-capacity or slow-yield (≤1 GPM) wells may reach 200–300+ ft, reflecting persistent, thick, low-porosity basalt. Casing typically extends through unconsolidated units, ending just at the bedrock interface.
