EXPLANATION

U.S. Geological Survey 7.5-minute quadrangle and name

Potentiometric contour—Shows altitude at which water would have 

 stood in a tightly cased well. Dashed where approximate. Contour 

 interval is variable

Estimated location of 250-milligram-per-liter line of equal 

 chloride concentration (Modified from Lacombe and Rosman, 2001)

Surface-water freshwater-saltwater interface (Adapted from

 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service digital wetland data, 1990)

10,000-milligram-per-liter line of equal chloride concentration

 (Simulated freshwater-saltwater interface, modified from Pope and 

 Gordon, 1999)

Production well—Upper number is well number; lower number is 

 water-level altitude, in feet

Observation well—Upper number is well number; lower number is 

 water-level altitude, in feet

Observation well with hydrograph—Upper number is well number;

 lower number is water-level altitude, in feet
