EXPLANATION

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

Outcrop of the Vincentown Formation

Potentiometric contour—Shows altitude at which water would 

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

 Contour interval is variable

Approximate updip limit of the Vincentown aquifer (From 

 Zapecza, 1989)

Approximate downdip limit of the Vincentown aquifer (From 

 Zapecza, 1989; Vroblesky and Fleck, 1991)

Surface-water freshwater-saltwater interface (Adapted from

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

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
