WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE IN OBSERVATION WELLS 

IN THE UNITED STATES IN 1948

Part 3. NORTH-OKMTRAL STATFS

INTRODUCTION 

By A N Sayre and others

The ground-water investigations of the United States Geological Survey 

are primarily concerned with the location and appraisal of the ground-water 

resources of the Nation. They are carried on principally in financial 

cooperation with States and municipalities, or at the request of other 

Federal agencies. Most of the investigations have to do with the availability of usable water supplies, hut a few deal with drainage, flood 

control, construction of waterways and dams, mine drainage, and other 

problems to which the principles of ground-water geology are pertinent. 

Water-Supply Paper 992 lists about 1,800 papers and reports describing 

ground-weter investigations made by the Survey in cooperation with States 

and municipalities through 1945.

Significance of records of water level and artesian pressure

An essential part of the ground-water investigations is th1? measurement of fluctuations of water level and artesian pressure in wells. The 

rock formations of the earth are great natural reservoirs in which a part 

of the water derived from rain and snow is stored to supply wells and 

springs and to maintain the flow of streams during periods of fair 

weather. Water levels in wells indicate the stages of these natural 

reservoirs; they show the extent to which water supplies are de-oleted by 

drought or by heavy pumping, whether for public waterworks, irrigation, 

or Industrial uses, and the extent to which they are replenished in 

seasons of abundant rainfall or melting snow. The recorded changes of 

pressure in flowing wells indicate depletion or replenishment of the 

artesian supplies.
WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTH-CENTRAL STATE;

Annual publication of records by Geological S-irvey

The regular publication of records of water level and artesian pressure 

in the United States was begun by the Geological Survey in 1935 and has continued yearly since. This series of water-supply papers is in a sense an 

inventory of ground-water supplies. Prior to 1940 the records were published in a single volume. Beginning with 1940 the records have been 

published in six volumes, covering the northeastern, southeastern, northcentral, south-central, northwestern, and southwestern sections of the 

country. Hawaii is included in the southwestern section. (See fig. 1.) 

The introduction to the chapter on each State contains an outline of the 

general program of work and special features of the program in the current 

year, such as preliminary reports Issued or put on file during the year or 

of work done in preparation for such a report. A general discussion of the 

fluctuations of water level and statements in regard to precipitation, pumpage, and other factors affecting water level are Included. The following 

table gives the numbers of water-level reports from 1935 through 1948.

Scope of present volume

The present volume covers the north-central States and gives records of 

water level and ar-cesian pressure in about 1,940 observation wells of the 

Geological Survey and cooperating agencies in Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and Wisconsin. Of these wells, 77 

are equipped with automatic water-stage recorders. For some wells not previously reported complete records of water level are given. For wells whose 

previous records have been published this volume gives only the current 

records. If a complete description of a well nas been published in a
INTRODUCTION

previous report, only the well number or the well number and a brief description are given in this report. This report includes about 13,910 

Individual determinations of water level and artesian pressure.

Land-surface datum

Before 1943, in Geological Survey reports, the water levels and artesian pressures for some wells were given in feet above or below the

measuring point* and for other wells in feet above or below sea level or 

above or below various assumed datum planes. In 1943, It was decided that 

uniform practice should be adopted. Accordingly, a precise datum plane was 

established approximating the land surface at each well. The wrter levels 

and artesian heads for all wells listed In this report are given in feet 

below land-surface tlatvm unless preceded by a plus (+) sign, or otherwise 

Indicated In th« descriptive text for each State. When water levels or 

artesian heads are referred to land-surface datum for the first time, a conversion factor Is given in the descriptive matter preceding then in order to 

facilitate comparison of the older and newer records.

Network of Federal observation wells

In 1942 and 1943 the Geological Survey established a network of 60 Federal observation wells. These wells were selected because the fluctuations 

of water level in them are believed to be typical and represent the general 

fluctuations thft occur in the parts of the country in which the wells are 

situated. At the end of 1948 the network comprised about 360 wells in 45 

States, including 300 wells measured regularly in connection with cooperative ground-water investigations.

Changes in ground-water level in 1948 in the north-central part of

the United States

In 1940 the precipitation in the north-central section of the country 

was below normal with the exception of Illinois, Kansas, and North Dakota. 

In Illinois, precipitation totaled several inches above the annual average 

in nearly all the southern part of the State, buo was somewhat below normal 

elsewhere. In Kansas, the year's precipitation was above normal in almost 

every part of the State and exceeded amounts during either of the two preceding years. In Missouri, precipitation was slightly b3low the 61-year 

average. The average for the year was 39.59 inches, compared with the 

61-year average of 40.49 inches. The average precipitation for North 

Dakota was 17.45 inches--0.68 inch above normal. The fluctuations of both 

water level and artesian pressure in wells, however, depsnd on many factors 

besides the amount of precipitation. In certain of the observetion wells 

there are fluctuations caused by difference in the rate of pumping or artesian flow from other wells in the area, but most of the observation wells ar 

not noticeably affected by pumping or artesian flow. A summary of the 

changes in ground-water level is given in the chapter for each State.

PROGRAM OF WORK

f.'easurements of water level were continued in 1948 in the veil at 

Princeton, in Bureau County, as a part of the Nation-wide network of observation wells. This well is equipped with a float-tape gage, and was first 

observed in November 1942; observations have been made at approximately 

weekly intervals since thst time. A total of 49 measurements wfs made in 

this well during 1948.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The water level in the well at Princeton during 1948 folloved the 

general pattern of previous years, as indicated by figure 2. Tls high 

water level occurred in the first quarter and the low water level in the 

last quarter of the year. The ranf.e of fluctuation of 17.39 feet was 

greater than in any previous year of record. The high of 3.60 feet below 

land-surface datum occurred on March 27 ana the low of 20.99 feet below 

land-surface datum on December 25, the lowest on record for this well and 

4 feet lower than the first measurement of the yea? as recorded on January 3. 

The average water level for the last 3 months of the year was 20.41 feet 

below land-surface datum, as compared with the average water level for the 

first 3 months of 13.51 feet below land-surface datum, a difference of 

6.90 feet.

The following is an excerpt from the Weather Bureau report on Climatological Data: Precipitation totaled several inches above the annual average 

in nearly all of the extreme south and also in the southernmost counties of 

central Illinois. Except in scattered localities, precipitation elsewhere 

in the State was somewhat under normal.

PROGRAM OP WORK

Measurements of the water level In observation wells In Iowa were 

continued in 1948 in cooperation with the Iowa Geological Survey. Most of 

the observation wells were established in 1938- In a few observation wells 

in the Tarkio Creek Valley, in southwestern Iowa, measurements were begun 

In 1C34 through a program organized by the Federal Geological Survey in 

which the Soil Conservation Service of the United States Department of 

Agriculture participated for several years. All of these wells are now 

included in one program for the State.

Past records of the water-level measurements made In the wells in the 

Tarkio Creek area are published in Water-Supply Papers 777, 817, 840, 845, 

886, 908, 938, 988, 1018, 1025, 1073, and 1098, and those for the wells 

established in 1938 first appear in Water-Supply Paper 886.

At the beginning of 1948 measurements were being made on 164 wells in 

39 counties throughout the State. (See fig- 3 .) During the year 6 wells 

were dropped from the program, and 3 wells were added, making a total of 

161 wells in the observation-well program at- the end of the year. Automatic water-stage recorders were being maintained on 12 wells at the close of 

the year. Water-level measurements were being made weekly on 5 wells, 

monthly on 48 wells, and quarterly on most of the remaining wells. Approximately 1,044 wetted-tape measurements were made in 1948 as contributions 

to the observation-well program. In addition, many water-level measurements 

were made in connection with pumping tests and in gathering data on new 

wells throughout the State. These additional measurements and descriptions 

of wells are not included in this report

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The average total precipitation over the State in 1948 was 28.33 

inches, about 3.22 inches below normal, as obtained from published records 

of the U. S- Department of Commerce, Weather Bureau, Above-normal preclpi 

tat ion occurred over most of the State during the mont*"» of February, 

March, July, November, and December. In April, the precipitation was normal but during the remaining months it was below normal.

The following table shows the average net change In the water level 

between December 1947 and December 1948 in groups of si-allow wells, by 

counties, throughout the State. The precipitation for 1948 at the nearest 

U- S. Weather Bureau station and the departure from normal is also shown.

a These wells, 1 in Clay County and 2 in Palo Alto County, are all 

in the vicinity of Lost Island Lake.

b These wells, 7 in Montgomery County and 17 in Page County, are in 

the Tarkio Creek Valley which occupies parts of both counties.

Shallow observation wells were established in 1934 in the Tarkio Creek 

area, which covers parts of Montgomery and Page Counties, in Iowa, and 

Atchison County, in Missouri. Water-level measurements have been made on 

this group of wells at least once a month for almost the entire period of 

record- In 1948, these measurements were made by Dean W. Knox, local observer. Records of the water levels in wells in the Missouri part of the 

area are given in the section of this report that deals with that State.

The fluctuation of the average water level in this area during the 

period of record as indicated by these 8 wells, and the precipitation at 

Shenandoah since 1934 are shown by months in figure 4.

The fluctuations of the water level during the period of record in a 

shallow unused well in the southern part of Webster County, near Harcourt, 

are shown in figure 5. This well is 41.8 feet deep, taps water In the 

glacial drift, and is representative of several shallow observation wells 

in the county which tap the same water-bearing bed. The monthly precipitation at Fort Dodge, shown also on the graph, correlates closely with 

fluctuations of water level. Figure 6 shows the depth of the water table 

below land-surface datum in well 84-6-20N1, which is an observation well 

11.7 feet deep tapping water in glacial drift. Wetted-tape measurements 

were made during the last week of each month to obtain these data. The 

well is in central Linn County about 5 miles northeast of Cedar Rapids. 

Close correlation between precipitation, as recorded at the IT. S. Weather 

Bureau station in Cedar Rapids, and the water-level fluctuations in this 

well is evident. This well is representative of several shallov observation 

wells in the county and of many domestic farm wells which tap tl <* same 

water-bearing bed.

Well 83-7-21K1, figure 7 , at Cedar Rapids, Linn County, is illustrative of artesian rock wells affected by industrial and seasorn.1 withdrawals for normal industrial use and air-conditioning purposes. This is 

an unused well completed at a depth of 156 feet in the upper nart of 

Silurian dolomite, which is locally about 400 feet thick- Most wells in 

Cedar Rapids develop water supplies for air-conditioning and industrial use 

from these strata. The observation well is about half n mile fron the 

heavily pumped areas of downtown Cedar Rapids. The well was first measured 

in August 1943. On December 31, 1948, the water level was 60-91 feet below 

land-surface datum, which is 3.69 feet below its stage of Decemt'sr 31, 1943.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

Tie numbers assigned by the Federal Geological Survey to its observation wells in Iowa, other than those in the Tarkio Creek area, show the 

location of the wells according to the rectangular system for subdivision 

of public land. Each well number is made up of three segments, separated 

by hyphens. The first and second segments indicate the township and range. 

The third segment includes the section, followed by a letter representing 

the 40-acre subdivision of the section, as shown by the diagram, and the 

serial number of the particular well.

The letter E is added to the second segment representing the range 

when a well is east of the fifth principal meridian. Ir the numbers of the 

other wells, it is understood that the range indicated Is west of the 

meridian.

For example, the number 76-31-25P1 indicates a well in T- 76 N-, 

R. 31 W., in the SE^SW^ sec. 25, whose serial number is 1.

By Phyllis T. Mosley 

PROGRAM OF WORK

The observation-well program in Kansas was continued in 1948 in 

cooperation with the State Geological Survey of Kansas, the Division of 

V/ater Resources of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture, and the Division 

of Sanitation of the Kansas State Board of Health, In addition to the 

State agencies named, the city of Wichita cooperated in Harvey, McPherson, 

and Sedgwick Counties. Also, an observation-well program was carried on 

in the Missouri Basin in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation. 

Eighteen counties not heretofore included were added to the program in 

1948 and none was dropped making 67 counties in which wells were observed 

at the end of the year.

Results of cooperative ground-water investigations in the following

areas were published in 1948: Geology and ground-v/ater resources of Seward

1 2 

County, Ground-water resources of the Kansas City, Kansas, area, and

3 

Ground-water resources of Republic County and northern Cloud County.

At the beginning of 1P48, periodic water-level measurements were being 

made in 527 observation wells in the State. During the year measurements 

were discontinued in 42 wells and begun or resumed in 106 wells. At the 

end of the year 591 wells v/ere und'er observation. Of the wells measured 

in 1948, 252 v/ere measured bimonthly, 171 were measured quarterly, 114 

monthly, 4 semimonthly, 21 weekly, and water-stage recorders were maintained 

on 12. The recorders on four of these wells--one in Finney Coanty, one in 

Grant County, and two in Scott County are maintained by the Division of 

Water Resources of the Kansas State Board of Agriculture. During the year

Cheyenne County 

By D. W. Berry and Phyllis T. Mosley

An observation-well program was set up in cooperation with the Bureau 

of Reclamation, in Cheyenne County during the spring and summer of 1946 as 

part of the St. Francis Unit of the Missouri Basin irrigation projects. 

The observation-well program includes 22 domestic, stock, and irrigation 

wells situated in the valley and adjacent uplands of the South Fork of the 

Republican River. These wells tap either the alluvium of the valley or 

the Ogallala of the uplands.

Periodic measurements of the water levels in 19 of the wells were 

started in 1946, measurements on 1 well were started in June 194V, and 

observation of 2 wells was begun in 1948.

1-38-lcd. Paul O'Brien. SK^SW-j sec. 1, T. 1 S., R. 38 W. Drilled 

irrigation well, diameter 18 inches, depth 42 feet below land-surface datum. 

Measuring point, hole in turbine base, 1.0 foot above land-surface datum.

PROGRAM OF WORK

Periodic measurements of water level were made In three wells In 

Minnesota in 1948, and water-level deteminatIons were made from recorder 

charts from two wells equipped with automatic water-stage recorders. A total 

of 1,266 measurements was made during the year. Of this total, 1,168 measurements were obtained from the two wells equipped with recorders. Also 

included In this report are the 1J47 water-level determinations for the two 

wells equipped with automatic water-stage recorders.

Field work was done In connection with the Investigation of groundwater resources in the vicinity of Cloquet, In Carlton County, and at the 

Camp RIpley military reservation near Little Falls, In Morrison County. 

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The maximum and minimum water levels observed In the various observation wells for 1948 are as follows; (The first two wells listed are those 

equipped with automatic water-stage recorders.)

PROGRAM OF WORK

Water-level measurements were made in Atchison County in 1948 as part 

of the Tarkio Creek Valley obaervation-well program organized by the 

Federal Geological Survey in 1934 in which the Soil Conservation Service 

of the United States Department of Agriculture participated for several 

years.

The Atchison County section consisted of 14 wells in 1948 in which 

152 single measurements were made by D, IN. Knox, observer of the Tarkio 

Creek well program.

The measurements of the observation well in Grundy County were continued on a weekly basis. W. H. Estes, ownar of the Grundy County well, 

has been the observer since its establishment and initial measurement in 

1942.

The water levels in the Phelps County wells were measured monthly by 

engineers from the Rolla office of the surface water branch through the 

courtesy of H. C. Bolon, district engineer. A total of 20 measurements 

was made in these two wells in 1948.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

In the Grundy County well the low measurement of 8.19 feet below landsurface datum, recorded on December 25, is the lowest on record for this 

well. The year started with a measurement of 4.10 feet l^low land-surface 

datum on January 11. The maximum fluctuation of water levels was 5.03 

feet, with the highest reading of 3.16 feet below land-sir rf ace datum occurring on April 4. The water level was 3.99 feet lower at the end of 1948 

than at the end of 1947.

Fluctuations of water levels in wells in Atchison County together with 

the other wells in the Tarkio Creek area, are discussed in the section of

this volume that deals with Iowa.

PROGRAM OP WORK

The State-wide program of water-level measurements in observation wells 

in Nebraska was continued in 1948. This program was started In 1934 in cooperation with the Conservation an'l Survey Division, University of Nebraska, 

and in 1945 was expanded significantly as a part 0? the program for the development of the natural resources of the Missouri River Basin.

A very* large proportion o^ the water-level records Included In this 

report have been obtained as a result of intensive water-level observation 

programs that ha^e been established in all of the project area" under investigation In the Missouri Basin Progran- Since 1945, the water-level observat^on progran in Nebraska has been supported substantially by Missouri 

Basin funds and has resulted in a significant increase each ear in the 

number of observation wells being measured in the areas under Investigation. 

Also, as a result of this participation, the number of water-level measurements made in individual observation wells during the year has been Increased very materially. Likewise, the cooperative test-drilling program 

with the Conservation and Survey Division, University of Nebraska, has been 

considerably Increased due to the inclusion o^ the observation-well program 

in the Missouri Basin studies.

Records of water levels in the wells and some interpretation of the 

fluctuation of the water levels arc given in the annual reports of the Geological Surve;/ on water levels and artesian pressure.

Measurements of water levels made in 838 wells are given in this report, including 78 wells in the observation of which the following organizations are cooperating informally: Grand Island Water Department, 44 wells 

in Hall County and 1 in Merrick County; Pish and Wildlife -Service, United 

States Department of' Interior, 9 wells in Garden County; Central Nebraska 

Public Power find Irrigation District, 1 well in Keith County, and 11 wells

152
NEBRASKA 153

In Phelps County; Platte Valley Public Power and Irrigation District, 2 

wells In Keith County and 10 wells in Lincoln County. Weekly tape measurements for well 20-50-32aa, in Morrill County, were furnished by the Nebraska 

Department of Roads and Irrigation.

Water-level measurements are not Included for the following observation wells measured by the Central Nebraska Public Power and Irrigation 

District; 1 well In Arthur County, 24 wells in Dawson County, 2 wells in 

Garden County, 23 wells in Gosper County, 52 wells in Keith County, 66 wells 

in Lincoln County, and 10 wells in Phelps County. Records of wrter levels 

in these wells prior to 1948 nave been included In previous reports of the 

Geological Survey on water levels and artesian pressure.

Automatic water-stage recorders were In operation on 23 wells. Of 

these, the following wells are equipped with 60-day continuous recorders:

1-11-llab .(near Red Cloud, Webster County)

I-40-29bb (near Halgler, Dundy County)

3-25-4bb (near Cambridge, Purnas County)

7-38-28cc (near Imperial, Chase County)

8-9-14ac (near Trumbull, Adams County)

9-14-ldc (near Gibbon, Buffalo County)

II-ll-25cc (near Alda, Hall County)

The remaining wells listed below, are equipped with 8-day recorders:

l-6-30dd (near Superior, Nuckolls County)

5-6-26bd (In Fdgar, Clay County)

5-15-3ba (near Minden, Kearney County)

5-19-22da (near Atlanta, Phelps County)

7-10-23ab (near Hastings, Adams County)

7-20-31cd (In Bertrand, Phelps County)

is-36-lad) (near Kort y' Kelth County)

14-33-27da .(hear O'Fallons, Lincoln County)

15-9-9aa (near Cushing, Howard County)

24-48-10bb)

24-4fi-31ba) (near Alliance, Box Eutte County)

25-48-14aa)

25-45-32ad (near Antloch, Sheridan County)

30-22-23dd (near Alnsworth, Brown County)

The well near Superior is serviced by personnel of the Bureau of Reclamation at Superior. The two wells near Korty and the one nenv O'Fallons are 

serviced by Warren Doollttle of the Platte Valley Public Power and Irrigation District. The well near Alnsworth is serviced by personnel of the 

Bureau of Reclamation at Alnsworth.

Tables have been included showing the total monthly pumpage for the 

public supplies for the city of Grand Island and for the city of Lincoln at 

its well field near Ashland. Monthly measurements of the water level in 

well Al2-9-24oc (U- S- 62) are given under the heading Saunders County.
154 viATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTH-CENTRAL STATES

This well is one of eight key wells in Nebraska and the water level in the 

well is measured, by personnel of the Ashland pumping station.

Monthly measurements of the water levels in eight key veils in Nebraska 

were continued during 1948. Measurements from these wells form the basis of 

statements of water-level conditions in Nebraska that ere published currently 

in the monthly Water Resources Review.

In all, exclusive of automatic water-stage recorder measurements, 4,542 

individual measurements of water level were made in Nebraska in 1948. 

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

The precipitation in Nebraska in 1948 was 21.57 inches, 1.07 inches 

below normal and 1.78 inches below that of 1947.

The following table summarizes for each observntiori well, the highest 

and lowest water level of record, the net change in wpter level in 1948, and 

the net change in water level during the entire period of record:

Length of record, in years, highest end lowest recorded water levels, -in

well field, near Ashland, began in August 1932 and by the end of 1948 a 

total of approximately 51,209.8 million gallons of water had been withdrawn 

from the ground-water reservoir. The public supply at Grand Island is obtained by pumping from a group of wells drilled into the Pleistocene sands 

and gravels of the Platte Valley and situated for the most part within the 

city.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

The following we11-numbering system has been adopted in th? Missouri 

Basin and is now being used in Nebraska. The State has been divided into 

two principal divisions. The nurbera of those wells east of the sixth 

principal meridian, which passes through Columbus, are preceded by the 

capital letter A' Those west of Columbus have no preceding letter. The 

first number indicates the township, the second the range, and the third 

the section. The lower-case letters, which follow the section number, 

indicate the position of the well within the section, the first letter indicating the quarter section and the second letter the quarter-quarter section" 

The letters a_, b_, c_, and d are applied in counter-clockwise direction beginning with si in the northeast quadrant. The last numeral indicates the number of the well within the tract of land indicated by the last letter- No 

number is shown unless more than one well is within the given tract of land.

NORTH DAKOTA 

By J- E. Powell 

PROGRAM OP WORK

Ground-water investigations and the measurement of water levels in 

observation wells in North Dakota were continued in 1948 in cooperation 

with the North Dakota State Water Conservation Commission. At the end of 

1946, water levels were being measured in 155 observation wells of which 7 

were equipped with automatic water-stage recorders. Water levels in 26 

wells were being measured weekly by local observers. Measurements were 

discontinued in one well. Records of a total of 1,220 water-level measurements are included in this report, and in addition, 1,486 water-level determination obtained from wells eauipped with automatic water-stage recorders.

Field work was done in connection with studies of ground-water conditions in the vicinities of the towns of Minnewauk^n, Michigan, Lakota, 

Portland, Kindred, Wyndraere, Litchville, Neche, and Mohall- Reports on 

ground-water conditions in the vicinities of Hope and Wimbledon were published in mimeographed form.

PRECIPITATION

The average precipitation for North Dakota in 1948, as reported by the 

United States Weather Bureau, was 17.45 inches, or 0.34 inch above the 

1892-1948 average. Departures from normal precipitation ranged from -6.97 

to +8.37 at various stations in the State. The maximum positive departures 

from the normal occurred in the north-central part of the State and the 

greatest negative departure took place in the southeastern part of the StateIn general, precipitation was below normal in the southern half of the State 

and above, normal in the northern half. In the extreme western part of the 

State, however, precipitation was above normal in the south and below nofmal in the northwest. Average precipitation for the State vas above normal during the months of February, April, -Tuly, November, and December 

The greatest monthly departures were -0.40 inch in June and +1-60 inches in

July.

FLUCTUATION OF WATFR LEVEL

The average monthly water levels for the State from 1937 through 1948 

are shown In the following table. These averages are based on water-level 

measurements in selected observation wells, and were computed from the records from 9 wells distributed throughout the State in which water levels 

were measured weekly. Four of these wells are In the Red River drainage 

basin, one In the Sourls River drainage basin and three in tne Missouri 

River drainage basin. Figure 9 is a graphical presentation of these data.

As In previous years, the water levels were low during the winter, the 

lowest stage of the year occurring In February. The water levels declined 

slightly from-December to March, rose a small amount during March, and rose 

rapidly during April and May due to recharge from melting snow In conjunction with the thawing of the ground surface. The highest water, levels of 

the year were attained In May, after which they dropped gradually to 

December. At the end of 1948 the average water level was 0.19 foot lower 

than at the end of 1947.

The following table shows the general fluctuations and net changes In 

the ground-water levels during 1948 In several regions In the State accordIng to drainage basins. The regions are (1) the Red River basin, exclusive

By F- C. Foley 

PROGRAM OF WORK

Measurements of water level in observation wells in Wisconsin were 

continued during 1948 and the program was again expanded. During 1948,43 

Wells were added to the observation-well program and measurements were 

discontinued in 4 wells. Automatic water-stage recorders were installsd 

on 3 of the new wells added during 1948 and a total of 21 recorders were 

in operation at the end of the vear. Measurements of water levels in six 

wells in northern Wisconsin were made by the Wisconsin Conservation Department .

Investigation of the ground-water resources of Wisconsin in cooperation with the University of Wisconsin continued during 1948. In addition 

to general studies of water levels throughout the State, detailed studies 

were continued in eastern Wisconsin, especially in the Milwau^ee-Waukesha 

and Green Bay areas, and a detailed study of the ground-water resources of 

western Langlade County was started.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

Precipitation in Wisconsin in 1948 averaged 24.22 inches, which is 

6.31 inches below normal. It was the driest year since 1895 and the second 

driest on recordWater levels in water-table wells continued to drop in 1948 as a result of the deficient precipitation. There has been a general lowering of 

the water table in Wisconsin since 1945 or 1946, nore pronounced in the 

northern part of the State than in the southern. In Water-Supply Paper 

1098, records were analyzed for 13 water-table wells in northern Wisconsin.

In 1948 each of the same wells showed a net decline in water level 

except well Sw-7 which showed a net rise of 0-16 foot. Declines in the 

other wells ranged from 2.52 feet in well Pt-30, in Portage County, to 0.11 

foot in well Ln-2{f, in Lincoln County. The average for the 13 wells is a

281
282 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTH-CENTRAL STATES

net lowering of 1.20 feet compared to an average net lowering'of 0.86 foot 

in 1947. Six water-table wells in the Coon Creek area, in Vernon and 

Monroe Counties, showed an average net drop of 0.87 foot in 1948 compared 

to an average net rise of 0.29 foot in 1947 in the same wells. Figure 10 

shows hydrographs for 1947 and 1948 of two representative water-table wells.

Water levels in all deep artesian observation wells in the MilwaukeeWaukesha area showed a net drop during 1948. Five recorder equipped wells 

showed drops ranging from 7.16 feet to 21.05 feet with an average net lowering of 15.08 feet. The greatest net drop occurred in well Mi-79, in 

Forest Home Cemetery. The recorded seasonal fluctuation in the same 5 

wells ranged from 13 feet to about 60 feet in 1948 as compared to from 

about 9 feet to about 65 feet in the same wells in 1947. The greatest 

seasonal fluctuation recorded was in well MI-45, in the Milwaukee Journal 

building.

Highest recorded water levels occurred between April 19 and May 16, 

except in well Mi-79, immediately prior to the normal seasonal decline due 

to increased pumpage. The seasonal decline started about 1 month earlier 

in 1948 than in 1947. Lowest water levels occurred between August 28 and 

October 1. The highest water level was reached in well Ml-79 on January 3, 

and not in May, as it was in other wells in the area, because a new well in 

Forest Home Cemetery was placed in operation and pumpage fron it prevented 

the water level in the area from rising to the level it would otherwise 

have reached. Figure n shows the hydrograph of well Mi-36, a representative well in Milwaukee County.

Well Fl-10 on the eastern edge of the city of Fond du LRC showed a net 

drop of 3.44 feet during 1948 compared to a net drop of 4.09 feet during 

1947. The highest water levels were recorded in January, February, and 

March, when there was little fluctuation. The lowest water level occurred 

on August 27. The total seasonal fluctuation was 8.62 feet.

Well Bn-9 at 320 North Broadway, Green Bay, owned by the Larsen Canning 

Company, showed a seasonal fluctuation of 85 feet from its highest water 

level on April 19 to its lowest on September 21. It also showed a net drop 

in water level of 6-02 feet during the year. The lowest water level recorded was 296.00 feet below land surface, an all-time recorded low.

Artesian wells away from the heavily pumped areas showed no really 

significant net changes in water levels during 1948. Well Ra-5, at 

Sturtevant, in Racine County, showed a net lowering of water level of 3.74 

feet during 1948 compared to a net lowering of 2.33 feet in 1947. The 

trend appears to be downward in the Sturtevant area but the record is not 

yet long enough to be significant. Wells Dg-9 and Dg-10 showed net rises 

of water levels of 6.45 feet and 1.46 feet respectively compared to rises 

of 3.55 feet and 1.99 feet in 1947; well Mt-5, in Peshtlgo, Marinette 

County, showed a net lowering of 1.32 feet compared to a net rise of 

exactly the same amount in 1947.
