Well Drillers Near North Lake, Wisconsin

A geological estimate for the North Lake area.

Detailed Summary

Based on synthesis of well logs, the North Lake region is typically underlain by (1) a shallow surficial clay or clayey till, (2) sand and gravel (the principal aquifer), often in multiple interbedded zones, (3) occasional lenses of gravel with stones or silty material, and (4) limestone or dolomite at greater depths (not always reached by domestic wells). Sand and gravel zones are the key water-bearing units for most wells, providing reliable yields for residential supply. Static water levels generally range from 10–52 feet below ground; residential wells (5–15+ GPM) are usually 40–70 feet deep with screens or open intervals in the lower sand/gravel, while higher capacity or deep wells may be finished at 170–200+ feet within limestone/dolomite or thick sand/gravel.
