WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE IN OBSERVATION WELLS 

IN THE UNITED STATES IN 1948

Part 1. NORTHEASTERN STATES

INTRODUCTION 

By A. N. Sayre and others

The ground-water investigptions of the United Statea Geological Survey 

are primarily concerned with the location nnd appraiaal of the ground-water 

reaouroea of the Nation. They are carried on principally in financial cooperation with Statea and municipalitlea, or at the requeat of other Federal 

agencies. Moat of the inveatigationa have to do with the availability of 

uaable water auppliea, but a few deal with drainage, flood control, conatruction of waterwaya and dama, mine drainage, and other problema to which 

the principlea of ground-water geology are pertinent. Water-Supply Paper 

992 lista about 1,800 papers and reporta describing ground-water inveatigationa made by the Survey in cooperation with Statea and municipalitiea 

through 1945.

Significance of records of water level and arteaian preaaure

An easential part of the ground-water investigations is the 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 tha 

water derived from rain and snow is stored to supply wells pnd 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 depleted 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, NORTHEASTERN STATES

Annual publication of records by Geological Survey

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 northeastern States and gives records 

of water level and artesian pressure In about 1050 observation wells of 

the Geological Survey and cooperating pgencles In Connecticut, Delaware, 

Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New 

York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Of these wells, 310

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 has been published in a 

previous report, only the well number or the well number and a brief

description are given in this report. This repc t includes about 34,000 

individual determinations of water level and artesian pressure.

Lana-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 points 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 water 

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

feet below land-surface datum unless preceded by a plus (+) sign, or otherwise indicated in the 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 them 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 that 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 northeastern part of the

United States

In 1948 the average annual precipitation for the New England States 

was 42.21 inches, 0.18 inch above the mean for the past 61 years. Precipitstion was above normal in Delaware, Indiana, and New Jersey. In Michigan, 

the year's rainfall was about 2 inches less than normal. The average precipitation for New York was 40.57 inches. There was abundant rainfall in 

Ohio. The average annual precipitation for Pennsylvania was 46.31 inches, 

4.25 inches above the mean for the past 61 years. The fluctuations of both 

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

besides the amount of precipitation. In certain of tho observation 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 

are 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 OP WORK

The observation-well program In Connecticut was continued In 1948, In 

cooperation with the Connecticut State Water Commission, as a part of the 

State-wide Investigation of ground-water resources.

Observations were made In 1948 at 40 wells and a total of about 600 

Individual water-level measurements was taken. One well wtx.s added and two 

wells were dropped from the program during the year. Of the 39 wells being 

Treasured at the end of 1940, 37 were measured at monthly Intervals and 2 

at more frequent Intervals, Of the total, measurements of waber level were 

made In 11 wells In and adjacent to heavily pumped areas in the city of 

New Haven, In 9 wells in and adjacent to heavily pumped areas in the city 

of Waterbury, and In a network of 20 other wells scattered throughout the 

State.

In addition to the water-level observations, samples of water were 

collected at the beginning of the year from 20 ground-water pumping plants 

in New Haven for determination of chloride content (salinity) in order to 

show the trend of salt-water contamination with pumpage. At monthly intervals sampling was continued at five of these plants throughout 1948, In 

Waterbury, bimonthly samples of ground water were collected from five 

pumping plants for determination of sulfate content resulting from Inflow 

of acid-contaminated water from the Naugatuck River,

As a part of the long-range survey of ground-water conditions throughout the State, detailed field studies of the ground-water resources of the 

valuable tobacco and potato-growing area In north-central Connecticut were 

begun early In 1948. A report dealing with the occurrence, availability, 

and usage of ground water lii this area is being prepared to furnish the 

data to those growers desiring to use well water for supplemental Irrigation.

PRECIPITATION

The annual precipitation for Connecticut during 1948, aa recorded at 

22 stations of the U. S. Weather Bureau, averaged 47.04 inches, or about 

1 inch above normal for the period of record. Precipitation was above 

normal at most stations for the months of April, May, June, November, and 

December. The year began under the domination of a weather pattern consisting of frequent alternations of heavy snowstorms and cold waves. The deep 

cover of snow deposited in the storms just before and after Christmas 1947, 

was increased so that by the end of January maximum depths of 30 to 40 

inches had accumulated in western and southwestern Connecticut. Frost 

penetration was held to a minimum by the early arrival and insulating 

effect of the thick snow blanket.

Below-normal precipitation during the first 3 months of 1948, together 

with an early thaw in the middle of February and a more general thaw in 

mid-March, served to dissipate the snow -cover without threat of serious 

floods. Precipitation was above normal during the early part of th» growing season and favorable weather conditions continued through July. An 

extended dry period began in mid-August and continued into October, causing severe crop damage and a general lowering of water-storage supplies. 

Several moderate to heavy storms occurred during November and December. 

These storms, coupled with extraordinary warm temperatures, culminated 

the year with major floods in most sections of the State. Record floods 

occurred In the Bouaatonic and Naugatuck Rivers. The year ended with the 

ground free of snow.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

Water levels In observation wells in Connecticut were about at normal 

stages at the beginning of 1948. Early melting of the unusually heavy 

snow blanket, together with the almost complete absence of ground frost 

made available large amounts of water for recharge of ground-water aquifers. 

As a result, ground-water levels rose rapidly in February and March and 

record high levels were recorded In many wells at the end of March. During 

the period of above-normal precipitation at the beginning of the growing 

season water levels throughout the State remained at high stages or continued to rise. In June the average levels In the residential and Industrial 

areas of New Haven reached record highs for the 10-year period of
CONNECTICUT

observation. The record drought In August and September brought about 

marked declines In water levels In all wslls and record lows were recorded 

In 12 wells at the end of October. Excessive precipitation In November 

and December served to check the seasonal decline and recoveries commenced 

In most wells by the end of the year. The full effect of these late rains, 

however, was not reflected In water levels until early In 1949. A net 

drop In water levels, therefore, was recorded In most wells for 1948. 

Levels In the three pumping areas In New Haven, however, showed a net rise 

for the year.

The following tables summarize the pertinent data pertaining to water 

levels In 39 observation wells in Connecticut. To permit a more convenient 

means of presentation and analysis, data for the wells In New Haven are 

summarized separately,

All measurementa of water level in Connecticut are In feet below landsurface datum, except for those wells within the city limits of New Haven , 

which are In feet with reference to mean sea level.

a Measurements discontinued Aug. 25, 1948.

The summary tables show that of the 39 wells for which records of 

water level for more than 1 year are available, the highest observed water 

levels occurred In 22 wells during 1948. The lowest observed water levels 

for the period of record occurred in 12 wells in 1948. It Is to be noted,
CONNECTICUT

however, that the period of record at 12 out of the 39 wells Is less than 

3 years in length and that some of the wells, indicated by footnotes, are 

in areas of large withdrawals and are affected by pumping at nearby wells. 

For the wells in Nsw Haven, which have a period of record of 10 years, 

the highest observed water levels on record occurred in 1948 in 2 out of 

the 4 observation wells in the residential area and in 3 out of the 5 wells 

in the industrial area.

The greater annual fluctuations of water level are noted in the wells 

that penetrate glacial till. The latter is more clayey and less permeable 

material than the stratified sands and gravels that supply wells in such 

areas as New Haven and Plainfield. At well Bu 2 in Burlington, which 

penetrates glacial till, a maximum fluctuation of 22.33 feet was recorded 

between July 5 and December 22, 1948. This is in contrast to a well in 

stratified material, such as well Wb 1 in Waterbury, in which a maximum 

over-all fluctuation of 4.14 feet has been observed during the period of 

record.

The net changes in water level in observation wells during 1948 are 

given in the following tables. The net change is the difference in the 

water level obtained by comparing measurements made nearest to December 31, 

1947, and December 31, 1948. The tables show that with the notable exception of the New Haven area, water levels in most sections of Connecticut 

showed a net decline for the year, despite above-normal precipitation 

during the same period. In general, the net decline, where it was not related to pumpage from nearby wells, can be attributed principally to the 

effect of the lag in time between precipitation and recharge to the groundwater aquifer. This lag between precipitation and recharge was influenced 

in part by the topography, the local geology, and the effect of the record 

drought. Water levels in most wells, which were at about normal stages at 

the beginning of the year, had reached exceptionally low stages by the end 

of the drought period. Though precipitation was, in general, above normal 

for November and December, the full effect of this precipitation was not 

felt until early in 1949. Thus, though water levels in all wells had begun 

to rise by the end of the year, the rise was not sufficient to again reach 

normal stages by December 31.
10 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 194R, NORTHEASTERN STATES

In New Haven, however, where water levels were somewhat above normal 

on January 1, 1948, precipitation in 1948 was in excess of normal by nearly 

6 inches and the full impact of the record drought was thus abated.

DELAWARE

By J. M. Bircfsall 

PROGRAM OP WORK

The program of ground-water investigations which was begun in 1943 in 

cooperation with the Town of Lewes, was continued through 1948. The two 

observation wells comprising the water-level program are at the Port Miles 

pumping station, near the Town of Lewes. Test well 1 is equipped with a 

Frlez weekly water-stage recorder and test well 2 is measured manually 

once a week.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATEJl LEVEL

The precipitation at Lewes, was above normal each month during 1948 

except February, April, and September, and the total precipitation for the 

year was reported to be 72.75 inches. For the State, precipitation averaged over 12 inches more than normal. There were record high water levels 

in both wells on June 3 and 4 (well l) and on June 4 and 11 (well 2). 

These highs probably reflect the precipitation in May which was 14.62 

Inches, and the greatest during any month in the year.

The wells reflect a tidal fluctuation and the record of one shows the 

effect of pumping.

The hydrographs representing the lowest daily water levels in test 

well 1 and the weekly measurements of well 2 indicate that in general the 

levels for 1948 are slightly above those for 1947 and likewise above those 

for 1945, the first full year of record. From an analysis of the waterlevel data from these two wells it would appear that no trend has developed 

either downward or upward.

PROGRAM OP WORK

The. observation-well program in Indiana was continued during 1948 in 

cooperation with the Indiana Department of Conservation, Division of Water 

Resources, C. H. Bechert, Director, as a part of the State-wide investigation of ground-water resources. On January 1, 1948, the program included 

166 wells. During the year the following wells were added:

Bartholomew 2 Jasper 3 Marshall 1 Starke 11

Hendricks 2 Marion 29 Miami 1 Tippecanoe 11

Hendricks 3 Marion 30 Porter 6 White 3

Measurements were also resumed in wells Marion 13 and 14, and Porter 3. 

During the year measurements were discontinued in wells Crawford 4, Grant 

6, and Marion 16. On December 31, 1948, the observation-well program included 174 wells, of which 121 were measured weekly, 5 were measured semimonthly, 2 were measured daily, 12 were measured at irregular intervals, 

and 34 were equipped with automatic water-stage recorders. The locations 

of these wells are shown in figure 2 . During 1948, a total of about 

6,800 measurements of water levels were made and about 9,900 water levels 

were computed from recorder charts.

Measurements of water levels in six wells in Clark and Ployd Counties 

were continued by the Louisville office of the Geological Survey, U. S. 

Department of the Interior, in connection with ground-water investigations 

in Louisville, Kentucky. These wells are included in this report as Clark 

5, Ployd 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6.

PRECIPITATION

The average precipitation for the State as a whole during 1948 was 

42.11 inches, 2.82 inches above the average for the period 1887-1948, inclusive. Rainfall was especially heavy in March, July, and November, and 

was considerably below normal during January, August, and September.

It should be noted that the heaviest precipitation in the northern 

and central divisions of the State occurred in June and March, respectively, 

when conditions for recharge were favorable. The heavy precipitation during November in the southern part of the State had considerable effect in 

speeding up the seasonal rise in ground-water levels.

a Affected by pumping. b No change.

Of the 143 wells, for which records are available, 100 showed net 

rises in water level ranging from a few hundredths of a foot to more than 

30 feet, 42 wells showed net declines ranging from a few hundredths of a 

foot to more than 15 feet, and 1 well showed no net change in water level.

The graphs of three wells in widely spaced areas of the State are 

shown in figure 3 . These wells reflect natural fluctuations in water 

level. The water levels in these wells followed the same general trend 

through 1948.

. The graphs of two wells in the downtown area of Indianapolis, shown 

in figure 4 , are rather typical of wells in" other areas of heavy groundwater pumpage and show that the general rising trend since 1944 was continued through 1948. It is interesting to note that the high level reached 

in Marion 2 in 1948 was almost as high as that reached in 1940.

Of the 156 wells for which records of water level are for 2 years or 

longer, 39 wells reached the highest stage of record and 23 wells reached 

the lowest stage of record during 1948.

Water levels in January were moderately low, although in most wells 

they were rising fairly rapidly. Water levels continued to rise in January, 

February, and March, and most wells reached their highest stages for the 

year during the last week of March and the first 2 weeks of April. During 

the rest of the spring and summer, water levels followed the usual seasonal 

decline, generally reaching the lowest stage for the year in October or 

November. In areas of heavy ground-water withdrawal water levels in wells 

affected by pumping generally reached their low stages for the year during 

August or September and then rose fairly rapidly during the remainder of 

the year.

MAINE

By H. L. Free, Jr. 

PROGRAM OP WORK

The program of periodic measurements of water level was continued In 

1948 at five observation wells In Maine. Three of the wells are In the 

southern part of the State, at Amherst, Cornish, and Mercer; two are in the 

northern part of the State, at Portage and Shennan Mills. Readings were 

made about once a week and, In all, 239 measurements were made during the 

year.

The wells In Maine have been renumbered according to the counties In 

which they are situated--well Ar 1, Aroostook County, formerly Portage 1; 

well Ar 2, Aroostook County, formerly Sherman Mills 1; H 1, Hancock County, 

formerly Amherst 1; Sm 1, Somerset County, formerly Mercer Ij Y 1, York 

County, formerly Cornish 1.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

The water levels In wells In Maine, as In the rest of northern New 

England, usually show a definite seasonal pattern which is different from 

that found In southern New England. During the winter, when the ground is 

frozen and covered with snow, the water levels fall steadily. In March or 

April a sharp rise usually occurs as a result of temperatures high enough 

to melt the snow cover and to partially thaw out the ground. During the 

growing season a drop usually begins after the spring thaw and continues 

until September or October. This Is followed by a rise which continues 

until cold weather, after which water levels usually decline throughout the 

winter.

Fluctuations of water level In the five wells In Maine during 1948 

followed, In general, the usual seasonal pattern. Cold weather and the 

continuous snow cover which predominated throughout January, contributed to 

a drop In water levels at all the wells. The heavy snow cover, which prevented deep penetration of frost, held over into the latter third of
90 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

February and, upon melting, aided the replenishment of ground-water supplies in the vicinity of all the wells except Ar 1, which was dry throughout the month. In the middle of March the water level in well Ar 2 was 

near its lowest recorded level. The abrupt change in the temperature pattern in the middle of March from very cold and snowy to pleasantly mild 

melted much of the snow, causing a sharp rise in water level which began 

in the middle of the month in all the wells except Ar 1. The rise in water 

level in well Ar 1, at Portage, beginning early in the month, continued 

through the early part of April. Precipitation and temperatures well above 

freezing resulted in an abrupt rise in water level in wellH 1 during the 

middle of March, and in a rise in water level nearly to the highest recorded 

stage in well Sm 1 on March 28. The slight fluctuation of the water level 

in well Ar 2, at Sherman Mills, in April corresponds closely to the varying 

amounts of precipitation in that vicinity during the month. Following the 

abrupt rise during the first third of April the water table in well Ar 1 

dropped appreciably. At the end of the month, however, it was higher than 

it was at the end of March. The water levels in wells HI, Sm 1, and Y 1 

fluctuated during April with the precipitation. Precipitation changes 

throughout May. when the total rainfall for the month, which was excessive 

in places, was well above normal, were reflected generally in the variations 

in water level during the month. The water level in well Sm 1, at Mercer, 

approached its highest recorded stage on May 23 as a result of very heavy 

precipitation, which totaled about 7 inches during the month.

The fairly steady drop in water levels at all the wells, which began 

late in May, can be attributed to the growing season. This decline continued at all the wells until the end of the summer, except for a slight 

rise late in June and early in July in well Sm 1 resulting from rain. The 

water level in well Ar 2 was near its lowest recorded stage at the end of 

August. Well H 1, at Amherst, was dry from the latter part of Septemberuntil the early part of November and the water level in well Y 1, at 

Corniah, reached its lowest observed level on November 14 as a result of 

deficient rainfall. The water levels in all the wells rose from their low 

stages as a result of November rains, far above normal, falling on unfrozen 

ground, therby replenishing ground-water supplies. The water levels, in 

general, declined from late November, or early December, until the end of
>'AINE, AROOSTOOK COUNTY 91

the belated mild weather which continued over most of the State through the 

first half of December. During the last five days of December and the 

first two days of January 1949 water levels in all the wells, except well 

Ar 1, rose as a result of the storms which were prevalent over most of the 

State at the end of December.

At the end of 1948 water levels in all the wells indicated a large increase in ground-water storage during the year.

Precipitation for the State as a whole during 1948 was 37.45 inches, 

or 2.65 inches below normal, and 0.79 inch more than in 1947. Normal for 

the State is 40.10 inches. During May, October, November, and December 

precipitation for the State as a whole was above normal; it was below 

normal for the remainder of the year, particularly during August and 

September when drought conditions prevailed.

The following tables summarize the data pertaining to ground-water 

levels in Maine.

MASSACHUSETTS

By H. N. Halberg

PROGRAM OF WORK

Investigations of the ground-water resources of Massachusetts, begun 

in 1938, were continued in 1948 in cooperation with the Massachusetts 

Department of Public Works. Periodic observations of water level were 

continued in 34 wells in Middlesex County, in the vicinity of Lowell, in 

the Aberjona Valley area, and in the vicinity of Fresh Pond, Cambridge; 

in 2 wells each in Berkshire and Essex Counties; in 1 each in Hampden and 

Franklin Counties, and in 3 in Worcester County. One observation well was 

established at Fall River, Bristol County, and one at Springfield, Hampder 

County. Water-stage recorders were operated throughout the year on three 

wells, at Wllmington, in Middlesex County, and at Leominster and Winchendon, 

in Worcester County. Water-level measurements were made weekly in nine 

wells and monthly in the remaining wells, except in three wells in Lowell 

and four in Woburn in which measurements were made once during the year.

a Net change to Oct. 2, 1948.

As shown In the preceding table, there was a net rise in water level 

In 18 of the wella in the State In which readings were made throughout the 

year, and a net decline In 14 of them. The net riae In four of the former 

wells waa 0.1 foot or less and the net drop in one of the latter wells was 

only 0.1 foot. Hence, the net change In stage during the year In these 

five wella can be conaidered to be negligible. At the end of the year 

water levela throughout the State were, in general, above the levels at 

the end of 1947, Indicating a net increase of ground-water storage.

Precipitation for the State as a whole during the year waa 45.58 

inches, according to recorda of the U. S. Weather Bureau, or 4.63 Inches 

more than In 1947 and 2.55 inches above normal. Total precipitation at 

Boston was 40.51 Inches, or 2.60 more than In 1947 and 0.37 inch above 

normal. At Amherst the total precipitation for the year was 40.03 Inches, 

which waa 1.71 inches greater than In 1947 and 3.93 Inches below normal. 

Precipitation was very heavy In May, June, and November and above normal 

in January, July, and October. It was below normal the remainder of the 

year and very low In September, resulting in low ground-water levels In September. Although precipitation was below normal In December, heavy rains 

at the end of the month furnished sufficient recharge to cause a net Increase in ground-water storage for the year in many of the aquifers.

At the beginning of the year the water table was at low stage for that 

time of year throughout the State and continued so through January. By 

the end of February water levels had risen to high February stages In the 

eastern part, but remained low in the western sections of the State. The 

continuation of the rise In March, as the result of further snow melt, 

brought water levels to their highest March stages of record in the eastern 

part, to well above average In the central part, and to about average In 

the western part. A decline in April brought water levels to below average 

In the western part, but they remained a little above in eastern 

Massachusetts. As a result of excessive precipitation in May (6.81 Inches 

for the State as a whole), water levels rose to high stages for this time
MASSACHUSETTS 97

of year throughout the State, with the water level in the well at Leominster 

slightly higher than its previous end-of-May maximum, and at an all-time 

high in the well at Montague.

Above-normal precipitation in June, much pf which occurred as local 

showers or thunderstorms, failed to keep water levels at high stages, resulting in a seasonal decline during the month. However, at the end of 

the month they were well above average throughout the State and at their 

highest June levels in the northeastern section of the State and iri the 

well at Brimfield. The decline continued in July, but water levels were 

still seasonally high at the end of the month. During August and September 

water levels continued to drop, but, despite precipitation of about 60 

percent of normal at the end of the month, were still above average in the 

eastern part and only slightly below in the western sections of the State.

The deficiency in rainfall continued into September, and water levels 

continued their decline, dropping to a little below average in eastern 

Massachusetts, and well below average in western Massachusetts. In October 

water levels dropped throughout most of the State, except in certain sections of central Massachusetts where, at Montague and Leominster, levels 

remained unchanged at the end of the month. All water levels were below 

average except in northeastern Massachusetts and in one well in Brimfield, 

in eastern Hampden County. Due to the cessation of use of water by plants 

and high precipitation of about 153 percent of normal in November, water 

levels rose, and generally were well above average at the end of the month, 

except in a few places where they were about average. The heavy rainfall 

at the end of December resulted in a rise during the month and a net gain 

in storage in most areas in the State.

Water-level observations were made once a month in three wells in the 

vicinity of Cambridge, Arlington 174, Cambridge 667, and Cambridge 798. 

The water levels in these wells are affected by fluctuations in nearby 

Fresh Pond, which is artificially-controlled as the pond is part of the 

water supply of the city of Cambridge. In all three wells water levels 

were very low at the beginning of the year as the result of drawdown of 

the pond, but rose in the spring and were kept at high levels through June, 

after which there was a steady decline until the end pf the year. There 

was, however, an appreciable net increase in ground-water storage in this
98 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

area during the year, as Indicated by the net rise In water level In all 

three wells.

Water levels In 15 wells reached new high stages for their periods of 

record during February or at the end of March, most of them In the northeastern part of the State. New low levels were reached In seven wells and 

were reached or approached In two others. Most of these wells so affected 

are In the eastern part of the State, with the low levels occurring as the 

result of the low precipitation In the summer and autumn. In one well, 

Lowell 43, at the city of Lowell pumping station on Pawtucket Boulevard, a 

new low water level was reached at the end of December. The data on which 

all wells first were read are shown In the table containing the summary of 

water levels.

PROGRAM OP WORK

The investigation of the ground-water resources of the Southern Peninsula of Michigan was continued during 1948 in cooperation with the Geological 

Survey Division of the Michigan Department of Conservation. One phase of 

this work includes the maintenance of a State-wide network of observation 

wells to determine the trends and changes of storage in principal groundwater reservoirs. About 6,000 measurements of water level were made during 

the year in about 230 observation wells. Of this group, 47 were equipped 

with automatic water-stage recorders from which continuous records of water 

level were obtained. j.n the remainder of the wells, water levels were 

neasured at periods ranging from semiweekly to annually. Most of the 10 

automatic water-stage recorders" that were added to the program during the 

year were installed on unused wells in State and Federal forests, through 

the northern part of the Southern Peninsula. The majority of these wells 

"T>e finished in sand and gravel formations within the thick section of 

drift derosits that mantle the bedrock through this area. Records obtained 

from the new recorder wells form an important part of a research program 

that is aimed at the correlation of ground-water levels with the base flow 

of streams in this region.

At the end of the year a report entitled "Ground-water hydraulics as 

a geophysical aid" was published by the Michigan Geological Survey, as 

Technical Bulletin No. 1. This report summarized the methods employed 

and the results obtained in the course of cooperative studies of the flow 

of ground water in areally limited aquifers which are of common occurrence 

in the southern part of the State, Research phases of the State-wide program in 1948 included studies of the effect of agricultural drains on 

regional water tables. In addition to the development of methods for the

solution of practical problems in land drainage, the objectives of this

107 

947808 O - 51 - 8
108 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

work are pointed specifically to determining the interrelation of stream 

flow and attendant changes in the ground-water level. The establishment 

of -key recorder-well sites in the northern part of the Southern Peninsula 

during the past year was aimed at the collection of basic data for the 

application of these drain functions as research develops.

PRECIPITATION

Total State-wide precipitation in 1948 was 28.00 inches, or 2.17 

inches below normal. On a State-wide basis, above-normal precipitation 

occurred during March, Apri-L, June, and November. An extended drought of 

considerable magnitude accumulated in the period July through October. 

State-wide average temperatures were above normal for April, July, August, 

September, November, and December. Greatest temperature departures were 

January at 5.6° P. below normal and April, September, and November with 

departures above normal of 4.8°, 3.0°, and 4.8° P., respectively. The net 

departure of temperature for the year was 4.6° above normal.

The most favorable conditions for ground-water recharge probably 

occurred during the months of March, April, June, and November which combined near or above-normal precipitation and temperature. The drought 

period July through October was also a period of temperature excess which 

would encourage above-average evapotranspiratio/1 withdrawals. 

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVE.L,

For those areas in the southern part of the Southern Peninsula which 

are under intensive study, detailed discussions of water-level fluctuations, 

pumpage, and precipitation are included with the tabulation of water-level 

measurements for that area. In the northern part of the Southern Peninsula 

the recorder well Cr Or 6, in Crawford County near Grayling, may be used 

as an index of the trends of ground-water level in the shallow water-table 

aquifers which cover this area. The stage in the Grayling recorder well 

on the first of the year was 6.86 feet below land-surface datum. As a 

consequence of below-normal precipitation and temperature through January 

and most of February, ground-water levels declined to a stage of 7.30 feet 

below land surface by February 25. A warm front, coupled with heavy rains, 

moved through the area about February 24 and recharged the water table 

during the last few days of February and the first part of March. Water 

levels rose from February 25 to March 3 to a stage of 7.09 feet below land
MICHIGAN 109

surface. Following this thaw, water levels declined slightly to 7.14 

feet below land surface by March 16.

Moderate to warm temperatures in the last part of March coupled with 

heavy rainfall on March 16 caused considerable recharge to the water table. 

Continued recharge from rains in the first part of April carried water 

levels to a stage of 4.88 feet below land surface by April 12. Thereafter 

the water table receded to a stage of 5.34 feet by April 27. Rains during 

the last week of April returned water levels to the 4.88-foot stage on 

April 29.

Below-average precipitation through May and most of June resulted in 

a decline of the water table of 1.32 feet to a stage of 6.20 feet below 

land surface on June 26. Widespread rains during the last week of June 

caused considerable recharge and water levels rose to the high for the year 

of 4,63 feet below land surface on June 30. Recession of the water table 

followed, to July 22 reaching a stage of 5.93 feet. Rains on July 21 and 22 

raised the water table to J.63 feet below land surface on July 23 and 24.

Above-normal temperatures and below-normal precipitation through 

August, September, and October resulted in a progressive decline of water 

level from the July 24 stage to the low for the year 8.18 feet below land 

surface in the period October 10-12. Moderate rainfall in the period 

October 8-14^ coupled with warm weather resulted in recharge and a rise of 

ground-water level to a stage of 7.95 feet by October 24. Above-normal 

precipitation and temperature during November recharged the water table 

to bring ground-water levels to the high for the month 6.49 feet below 

land surface on November 24 and 25. Below-normal precipitation and subfreezing temperatures in December limited recharge, and water levels declined to 6.90 feet below land surface by the end of the year. As indicated 

by the small net decline of 0.04 foot in the Grayling recorder well during 

1948, conditions of precipitation and temperature favorable to ground-water 

recharge in the spring and late fall of 1948 approximately offset the effect 

of the summer drought.

Mid-December measurements of water level in 43 shallow wells, which 

are finished in the drift deposits of the north-central part of the 

Southern Peninsula, indicate that the average ground-water stage was 0.67 

foot below the mid-December stage of 1947. A review of the water-level
110 WATER LEVELS A1JD ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1940, NORTHEASTERN STATES

records for this group of wells shows that ne't declines of water level 

ranged from 0.1 foot to as much as 1.7 feet. A comparison of these data 

with water-level records for observation wells which are in the southern 

part of the Southern Peninsula, and are of comparable depth, indicates 

about the same range and average decline of water level during the year.

a Wetted-tape measurement, 

b Estimated.

Total precipitation in the Battle Creek area during 1948 was 31.55 

inches, or 1.93 inches above normal. Above-normal precipitation occurred 

in February, March, April, May, November, and December. Interpreting 

cover and temperature conditions, the greatest opportunities for recharge 

probably occurred in the months of "arch, April, and May.

The time of occurrence of peak water levels ranged from January 5 to 

June 14. A greater number of wells, however, reached peaks during either 

the latter part of March or the latter part of May. In general, the occurrence of peak water level agrees with the peak-precipitation periods of 

March and May. Lowest observed water levels occurred during the periods
MICHIGAN, CALHOUN COUNTY 113

August 6 to October 29 or February 5 to March IS. Wells near centers of 

pumping generally reached their minimum stage near the end of the summer 

season of peak pumpage. Coupled with the peak pumping of the summer months 

was an extended period of below-normal precipitation from June through 

October. Wells reaching minimum stages during the February-March period 

were generally at considerable distances from the areas of pumping and the 

minimum stage recorded at this time marked the end of a prolonged period 

of winter drought. Excluding observation wells affected by year-end 

adjustments in pumping distribution, ground-water levels in the Battle 

Creek area, on the average, declined less than 1 foot during the year.

Total precipitation in the Flint area during 1948 was 29.45 inches, 

or 0.88 inch above normal. Months of above-normal precipitation included 

February, March, June, November, and December. Probably the most opportune 

for recharge were the months of March, May, and June.

Highest observed water levels in the Flint area occurred during the 

period March 29 to June 29 which correlates with the months of peak precipitation. Lowest observed water levels occurred during the period 

September 5 to October 5. The time of occurrence of minimum water-level 

stage coincides with the end of the summer season of peak pumpage and 

marks the close of the July to October drought period. The net decline of 

water level in the Flint area during 1948 averaged about 1.5 feet.

Gratiot County

Total precipitation in the Alma area during 1943 was 26.37 inches, or 

4.41 inches above normal. Months of precipitation excess included March, 

April, June, and November. Considering conditions of cover and temperature, 

the greatest opportunities for recharge to the ground-water table probably occurred during the months of March and April. The July-to-October 

period of below-normal precipitation Included the months of peak evapotranspiration discharge.

Withdrawals of ground-water for industrial and municipal supply in 

the Alma area averaged about 2 million gallons per day. Peak withdrawal 

occurred in January at an estimated rate of 2.2 million gallons per day. 

Minimum withdrawal occurred in April at an estimated rate of 1.3 million 

gallons per day.

Water levels in the Alma area reached highest observed stages between 

February 9 and May 17 with the majority of wells cresting at the end of 

April. The high water levels followed the above-normal precipitation of 

March and April and the winter period of mini' -urn pumpage. Lowest observed 

water levels occurred during the period August 4 to December 29 with the 

greatest number of low stages during the period October 27 to November 10. 

The low water levels occurred at the close of a prolonged summer drought 

period and shortly after the close of the peak-pumping season. Excluding 

those observation wells which were effected by year-end changes in .numpage 

distribution, ground-water levels in the Alma area generally showed a net 

decline of about 1.5 feet during the year.

Total precipitation in the lansing area during 1948 was 28.58 inches, 

or 3.38 inches below the average of the 1941-47 period. Months of excess 

precipitation included March, April, May, November, and December. An extended drought occurred from June through October. The March through May 

period of above-normal precipitation was particularly favorable for recharge to the ground-water reservoir.

The withdrawal of ground water in the Lansing area ranged from about 

14 million gallons a day in November to more than 20 million gallons a day 

in August, with an average daily withdrawal of 16.6 million gallons. The 

greatest part of this pumping was from wells which are finished in the 

Saginaw and Parma sandstones and are in a narrow belt trending northwest 

to southeast through the central part of the Lansing area.

Ground-water levels reached highest observed stages in the period between January 8 and May 24 with the greatest number of highs clustered 

near the end of May. In general, the timing of the peak water-level stage 

marks the close of a 3-month period of above-normal precipitation and follows the winter period of reduced pumping. Minimum ground-water stages 

occurred within the period August 19 to September 9, which marks the close 

of the summer season of peak pumping and high evapotransplration demand. 

Excluding fluctuations of water level due to year-end adjustments in pumping 

distribution, ground-water levels declined on the average about 2.0 feet 

during the year.

Total precipitation In the Kalamazoo area during 1948 was 32.16 Inches, 

or 3.05 Inches above normal. Excess precipitation occurred in February, 

March, April, May, July, and December. The greatest opportunities for 

recharge in the above months were obtained in March, April, and May. The 

period August through October marked a 3-month drought of appreciable magnitude.

The withdrawal of ground water In the Kalamazoo area for municipal 

supply ranged from 8.3 million gallons a day in February to 13.* million 

gallons a day in August and averaged 9.7 million gallons a day during 1948. 

Ground-water withdrawals by industrial users in the area are estimated at 

about four times the magnitude of the municipal pumpage. The average daily 

withdrawal In 1948 was about 6 percent greater than in 1947 and reflects 

about a 14 percent increase for the last 5 years.

The time of occurrence of peak water-level stage in the Kalamazoo 

area ranged from March 27 to July 9 with the greatest number of high stages 

occurring near the end of May which marked the close of a 4-month period 

of above-normal precipitation. Minimum stages occurred during the period 

from September 17 to December 23 and a second period about the end of
MICHIGAN, KALAKAZOO COUNTY 155

February. The lowest observed stages correlate with either the close of 

the season of peak pumpage, the end of the summer drought period, or the 

end of a winter drought period. Excluding fluctuations of water level, 

due principally to year-end adjustments in pumpage, the net decline of 

water level in the Kalamazoo area during 1948 averaged about 0.5 foot.

a Estimated.

b Wetted-tape measurement.

Total precipitation In the Pontlac area during 1948 was 34.25 Inches, 

or 4.80 Inches above normal. Excess precipitation occurred during the 

months of March, April, May, June, September, and November. The most 

favorable months of this group for recharge opportunity were March, April, 

May, and June. Considerable deficiencies in precipitation occurred In the 

Months of July, August, and October.

Withdrawal of ground water by municipal-supply wells ranged from 4.4 

million gallons a day in January to 6.5 million gallons a day In September, 

or an average for the year of 5.4 million gallons a day.

Ground-water levels reached highest-observed stages for the year during the latter part of May and lowest-observed stages at about mid-September. 

Although the end-of-May peak stage was followed by above-rnormal precipitation in June, the start of the summer season of peak pumping caused water 

levels to decline after the May high. The uptrend of water level following mid-September reflects the large reduction in pumping demand following 

the close of the summer pumping season. On the average, ground-water 

levels In the Pontaic area declined about 3 feet during the year.

Total precipitation for the Holland area during 1948 was 33.79 inches, 

or 1.13 Inches above normal. Excess precipitation occurred In January, 

March, April, May, July, and December. The most opportune months for recharge were probably March, April, and May. A period 'of extended drought 

occurred from August through November.

Ground-water withdrawals in the Holland area ranged from 1.5 million 

gallons a day In February to as much as 3.6 million gallons a day in August 

with an average for the year of 2.2 million gallons a day.

Ground-water levels In the Holland area reached highest observed 

stages for the year in the period February 28 to Jure 8 with the greatest 

number of highs recorded about the end of May. Timing of these peak waterlevel stages correlates with the close of an extended period of abovenormal precipitation and the end of the winter period of reduced pumping 

demand. Lowest observed stages occurred In the period November 8 to 

December 29, which marks the close of an extended drought period and the 

end of the summer season of peak pumpage.

Liberty Township 

(No measurements made in 1948.)
NEW HAMPSHIRE 

By H. L. Free, Jr. 

PROGRAM OF WORK

Periodic measurements of water level, begun in New Hampshire in 1942 

at one observation well in the town of Hill, near Bristol, in Merrimack 

County, were continued in 1948. Thirty-four water-level measurements were 

made in this well during the year.

The Manchester Water Works continued periodic measurements of water 

level, begun in 1942, at one observation well in Auburn, Rockingham County. 

A water-stage recorder was in operation on this well throughout the year.

An observation well was established at New London, Merrimack County, 

in 1947. Fifty-one water-level measurements were made in this well during 

the current year.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The fluctuations of water level in the well near Bristol appear to 

reflect precipitation and seasonal variations in temperature. Precipitation 

at nearby Franklin was 35.09 inches during the year, which is 4.83 inches 

below normal and 5.38 inches less than in 1947. The water level in this 

well was below average at the end of the months of January, March, April, 

and August through November. It was above average at the end of May and 

December and at average at the end of June and July.

The rapid rise in water level in the well near Bristol in March, in 

spite of precipitation far below normal, was the result of temperatures 

high enough to melt most of the snow cover. Ground absorption of melted 

snow and rain was rapid because early and continuous snow cover had prevented deep penetration of frost. The highest recorded water level of the 

year, which was 0.8 foot below the highest level for the period of record, 

occurred at the end of March. From that time except for a slight rise 

during April, it declined steadily until the latter part of September, 

when the well was dry. The well remained dry throughout October and 

176
HEW HAMPSHIRE 177

November. Several moderate to heavy November rainstorms, falling on unfrozen ground, resulted in a marked rise in the water level in this well 

during the first week of December. The drop in water level during the 

middle of December occurred during a period of little precipitation and was 

followed by a rise in water level as a result of considerable precipitation 

and temperatures above freezing. An increase of ground-water storage during 1948 was indicated by a rise of 1.0 foot in water level during the 

year.

The water level in the well at Auburn also apparently reflects chanson 

in precipitation and seasonal fluctuations in temperature. Precipitation 

at nearby Manchester during 1948 was 40.40 inches, or 1.25 inches above 

normal, and 0.17 inch leas than in 1947. Although the total precipitation 

for 1948 was slightly less than that for 1947, there was a net rise in 

water level during the year of about 0.3 foot. The water level in this 

well was above average at the end of the months of March through June and 

below average at the end of the remaining months.

In the well at Auburn the water' level rose from the first of January 

until the end of March. The abrupt rise in water level on March 20 reflected the precipitation which occurred on the previous day as well as 

the unseasonably high temperatures which had prevailed since March 15, and 

had melted much of the snow. The highest water level recorded in this well 

occurred on March 22. The water table in the vicinity of this well declined 

rrom the end of March throughout the growing season until the early part of 

November, except for rises caused by brief periods of fairly heavy rainfall. 

The water level rose from the early part of November until the end of 

December as a result of far above normal precipitation and temperature 

during November.

The water level in the well in New London dropped during January and 

the early part of February. The lowest recorded water level was measured 

on February 8. During the middle of March the water level, which had been 

rising since early in February, rose abruptly as a result of precipitation 

and the unseasonably high temperatures which characterized the weather 

during that period. The start of the growing season caused a drop in water 

level which began at the end of May and continued until the latter part of 

November. The rains which marked November weather replenished ground-water

storage at this well, as indicated by the rise in water level during the 

latter part of November and the first of December. The period of record 

of this well is not long enough to indicate any trends in water .level.

NEW JERSEY

By J. M. Birdsall and J. K. Ludlow 

PROGRAM OF WORK

The cooperative investigation of the ground-water resources of New 

Jersey was continued throughout 1940 in cooperation with the New Jersey Department of Conservation, Division of Water Policy and Supply. During the 

year about 3,000 individual measurements of water levels were made in addition to the continuous records obtained by the use of water-stage recorders. 

At the end of the year approximately 150 wells were being observed. Measurements were made monthly or less frequently in some of the wells, biweekly 

and weekly in others, and several times a day in one. Continuous records 

from water-stage recorders were obtained from 47 welis during the year. 

The State and Federal Governments owned 44 of these recorders, and the 

other 3 were owned by public-water supply companies and by industries.

PRECIPITATION

The average precipitation in New Jersey for the year was 52 inches 

compared with a normal of 45.58 inches. May was the wettest month with 

more than twice its normal rainfall and was the wettest May since 1894. 

During this month rain fell in the State nearly every day, and a number of 

stations recorded a total of more than 10 inches. (Belleplain 10.06; 

Bridge ton 10.83; Canoe Brook 10.12; Canton 10.69; ?;'ays Landing 11.96; 

Rahway 10.91.) June, August, and December were considerably wetter than 

normal. During the last 3 days in December, heavy rains brought the Delaware River to flood stage at Trenton for the first time in 6 years. In 

general, during the year water-table observation wells not affected by pumping responded to precipitation.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The Morrell well (29.11.1.2.3), a shallow dug key observation well, Is 

considered to be a reasonably reliable Index of the amount of water stored 

in the ground, particularly during the growing season. The water level in

180
NEW JERSEY 181

this well responds quickly to precipitation, and it is so situated that it 

is not affected by pumping. Prom an examination of the Morrell well hydrograph for 1948, it would appear that the ground-water storage through the 

first 6 months of the year was uniformly high, averaging about 74 feet above 

mean sea level. In July the total precipitation at Runyon, the nearest 

Weather Bureau station to the Morrell well, was 5.11 inches 0.42 inch above 

normal. The recorded low for the month was 72.16 feet above mean sea level. 

The greatest precipitation in 24 hours occurred on the 23d of the month, and 

amounted to 1.87 inchas. Following this, the water level rose to 74.38 

feet above mean sea level. The highest recorded water level for the year 

w^s 74.89 feet above mean sea level on August 5. In September and October 

the precipitation departures were -2.36 inches and -2.04 inches, respectively, and the lowest recorded water level was 71.23 feet above mean sea 

level on October 5. Prom then on, due to reduced transpiration, the water 

j.tivel continued to rise, end in December with a precipitation departure of 

3.74 feet, the water level at the end of the year was about 74 feet above 

mean sea level.

In the Atlantic City area, the artesian pressure in the Atlantic City 

Water Works 600-foot well, at the Pleasantville pumping station, which taps 

the Atlantic City 800-foot sand (a part of the Kirkwood formation), showed 

a seasonal fluctuation almost identical with that for 1947. In the Longport well, which also taps the Atlantic City 800-foot sand and is perhaps 

more typical of wells tapping this artesian aquifer, the average daily 

water level was 39.1 feet below mean sea level. At the beginning of the 

fear this fell to an average daily depth of 58.6 feet below mean sea level, 

with an extreme low of 59.8 feet on September 7. Thereafter the daily average rose until it was 40.3 feet below mean sea level on December 31. These 

fluctuations of artesian pressure are believed to be the result of pumping.

In Salem County a new high water level was observed on Warch 16 of 

2.88 feet below land surface in well 72, the previous high having been 3.12 

feet below land surface on March 8, 1945. This probably reflects a local 

condition.

In the Camden area a new low of 26.9 feet below'mean sea level was 

recorded in well 10 of the New Jersey Water Company on ray 24, 1948. The 

previous low for this well was 26.2 feet below mean sea level on July 1, 

1947. This probably reflected a shift in the distribution of pumpage.
182 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

In the Runyon area, Middlesex County, new lows in Duhernal wells 4 and 

5 of 2.42 feet below mean sea level on December 16, 18, and 19, 1948, and 

3.34 feet above mean sea level on December 15 and 16, 1948, respectively, 

were recorded. Each of these wells taps the Old Bridge (Ho. 3 sand) member 

of the Raritan formation and both are equipped with water-stage recorders. 

These lows probably indicate a shift in the distribution of pumpage as well 

as some over-all increase in pumpage from the No. 3 sand.

At Bradley Beach, in the Asbury Park area of Wonmouth County, a record 

high on January 26, 1948, of 11.38 feet above mean sea level was noted in 

the Bradley Beech 650-foot well. The preceding high was 11.28 feet above 

mean sea level on November 13, 1947. During that year repairs were made or 

this well in an attempt to revive its productiveness and this may be a result.

All measurements are in feet above mean sea level unless preceded by 

a minus (-) sign.

NEW YORK

UPSTATE NEW YORK

By E. S. Simpson and G. R. Ayer

PROGRAM OP WORK

Periodic measurement of water levels in observation wells in Upstate 

New York was continued during 1948. Records for 22 wells are included in 

this report. Of these, four are equipped with weekly-type automatic 

water-stage recorders and are operated in cooperation with the New York 

State Department of Conservation. Seven others, similarly equipped, and 

11, which are measured periodically with a tape or tape gage, are operated 

in cooperation with the New York Water Power and Control Commission, and 

under the active sponsorship of the New York Departments of Commerce, 

Health, and Public Works, and Office of the Geologist, New York State 

Science Service.

Records for two wells, G 2 and Sb 250, which appeared in previous reports, have been discontinued and do not appear in this report. Records 

for wells Bm 105, Sb 240, and Wn 29 appear for the first time in this 

report, and a brief description is given of the principal geologic and 

topographic features affecting ground-water levels in the general areas in 

which each of these wells is situated.

Well Bm 105 is situated on the west side of the flood plain of the 

Chenango River, about 1.4 miles north of its confluence with the Susquehanna 

River. The land-surface datum at the well is approximately 20 feet above 

river stage. The well is drilled into unconsolidated material, consisting 

principally of coarse glacial outwash, 135 feet thick. The well-casing is 

slotted from 100 feet to 105 feet bslow land-surface datum. On both sides 

of the river, flat-lying shales and sandstones rise to elevations approximately 600 feet above the flood-plain elevation. The water level in the 

well is affected by river stage and by nearby industrial pumpage.

201
202 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

Well Sb 240 Is situated on the south side of the flood plain of the 

Chemung River, and the land-surface datum at the well Is approximately 30 

feet above river stage. The well Is drilled 77.8 feet Into unconsolldated 

material of unknown thickness. Plat-lying shales and sandstones rise, on 

all sides, to elevations approximately 800 feet above the flood-plain 

elevation. The water level In the well Is affected by nearby industrial 

pumpage and possibly by river stage.

Well Wn 29 Is situated on the Interior lowland which extends in a 

belt south of Lake Ontario. The general direction of drainage Is northward, across the lowland belt, to the lake. The well Is located about 10 

miles south of the lake and near the north end of one of the many welldeveloped drumllns in the area. The well is drilled through about 25 feet 

of compact and heterogeneous unconsolldated material Into a series of 

gently southward dipping limestones and dolomites which contain water under 

artesian pressure.

The location of all wells In this report is shown on the map In 

figure 5.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

At the beginning of the year, below freezing temperatures prevented 

significant recharge to ground water from the unusually heavy snow cover, 

until the middle of February, when a thaw and rain brought high groundwater levels to most parts of the State. From March through June precipitation was generally normal or above normal, and ground-water levels 

declined seasonally at about average rates, except for the northern portion 

of the State, where both precipitation and water levels were lower than 

elsewhere. Beginning In July and continuing through October, pre'cipitation 

averaged only 77 percent of normal for the State as a whole. As a result, 

ground-water levels declined to below normal stages and recovery,-which 

ordinarily begins In October, did not occur until heavy rains early in 

November brought rapidly rising levels. December precipitation, mostly in 

the form of rain, was 141 per cent of normal for the State as a whole, but 

distribution was uneven. A heavy excess in the Hudson Valley caused floods 

and record high ground-water levels, but deficiencies in the Great Lakes 

area prevented full recovery of ground-water levels there. In the central 

portion of the State most wells ended the year with near average levels.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

Following a practice established on Long Island by the New York State 

Water Power and Control Commission and the Geological Survey, wells In 

Upstate New York are being numbered consecutively, beginning with "1", in 

each county. To distinguish numbers in any one county from those in another 

a letter or combination of two letters, taken from the name of the county, 

is prefixed to all the well numbers In that county. Thus, the letters "Cn" 

represent Chenango County and are prefixed to all well numbers in Chenango 

County. Similarly the letter "C", representing Cortland County, Is prefixed to all well numbers in that county.

LONG ISLAND

By N. J. Luaczynakl and H. D. Wilson, Jr. 

PROGRAM OF WORK

The Investigation of ground-water conditions on Long Island was continued during 1948 In cooperation with the New York State Water Power and 

Control Commission, the Nassau County Department of Public Works, the 

Suffolk County Board of Supervisors, and also the Suffolk County Water 

Authority. The basic phase of this Investigation comprised the periodic 

measurements of water levels In about 240 observation wells, 33 of which 

were equipped with automatic water-stage recorders. During the year about 

4,500 individual measurements were made, manual readings being made 

approximately 1 month apart.

GEOLOGY AND HYDROLOGY

On Long Island there are a number of water-bearing beds that yield 

large supplies of water to wells that tap them* There are five more or 

less well recognized water-bearing zones. The upper and most productive 

consists of extensive beds of glacial outwash which in most places are not 

overlain with impervious material. The second zone, the Jameco gravel, 

also a glacial outwash deposit, is distributed only around the borders of 

the island and is usually covered by the Gardiners clay, an Interglacial 

deposit. The third and fourth zones consist of widespread beds of 

Cretaceous sands and gravels of supposed Magothy age. The third zone lies 

in the upper part of 'the Magothy deposits and generally consists of coarse 

to medium sand. In the center of the Island these sands are in contact 

with the overlying beds of glacial outwash, whereas around the borders of 

the island they are covered by either the Gardiners clay, the Jameco gravel, 

or beds of recent clay. The fourth zone, in the lower part of the Magothy 

beds, consists of coarse sand and gravel, and is generally overlain by 

beds and lenses of clay distributed within the Magothy deposits. The fifth 

216
NEW YORK, LONG ISLAND 217

and lowermost zone, the Lloyd sand, lies just above the bedrock floor of 

the island and is almost everywhere covered by thick beds of Raritan clay. 

The Lloyd sand, also of Cretaceous age, consists of beds of sand and 

gravel which extend throughout most of Long Island.

The shallow-lying upper glacial beds constitute a reservoir in which 

large quantities of water are stored and into which water derived from 

precipitation can readily sink and from which water can be readily and 

economically withdrawn. As a result, the fluctuation of the water table 

in these beds reflects chiefly changes in rates of precipitation. However, 

in localities where the safe yield has been exceeded, it responds more to 

changes in rate of pumpage. In contrast, water in the deeper sands that 

lie beneath clay beds is under artesian pressure and is recharged at a 

more or less constant rate by water percolating down from the overlying 

iormations, through relatively small intake areas. Because of these 

features the fluctuation of water levels, in wells that penetrate the deeper sands, is controlled chiefly by changes in rate of withdrawal. Thus, 

The safe yield of the upper glacial beds is governed more or less by the 

average rate of precipitation whereas that of the deeper beds is limited 

by the capacity of the beds to receive and transmit water from the areas 

of intake to points of withdrawal.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

The relation between precipitation and the fluctuation of water levels 

has been discussed at considerable length by Leggette1 and by Jacob, 2 

and the effect of ground-water withdrawal on water levels in deep wells has

rr

oeen reported by Leggette.' The position of water table for May 1943 for 

most of Long Island has been defined by Jacob.*

Host of the observation wells on Long Island are screened in the upper 

Pleistocene beds, from which over half of the withdrawals are taken, but a 

number of them penetrate the deeper beds. The observation wells that 

appear In the present report and which penetrate the deeper water-bearing 

formations are listed In the following table:

of Upper Cretaceous age.

Generally speaking, Long Island may be divided into two hydrologic 

provinces with regard to the water-table aquifer. At the western end of 

the island excessive pumping for a number of years has lowered the water 

table below sea level in a large area in Kings County and adjacent parts 

of Queans County. In the other parts of the island the perennial recharge 

exceeds ground-water withdrawals with the result that the water table 

stands above sea level except at a few places along the shores where local 

overdevelopment has occurred. In the higher parts of the island the water 

table stands as much as 80 feet above mean sea level.

In the overdeveloped area at the western end of Long Island the water 

table responds more or less rapidly to changes in the distribution of 

pumping and also the over-all rate of withdrawal, whereas in other parts 

of the island, the major fluctuations of the water table are chiefly the 

result of variations in amount and distribution of precipitation.
NEW YORK, LONG ISLAND ' 219

The fluctuation of the water table in Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk 

Counties is believed to be represented closely by the trend of the composite average water level for 14 selected wells in Nassau and Suffolk 

Counties (see fig. 7 ). During the first seven months of 1948, this 

composite level rose more than 2^ feet to a stage 49.17 feet above mean 

sea level in July, the highest on record for the month. The composite 

level then declined continuously during the remainder of the year, but at 

that time was at the highest year-end level since 1938. In 1948, peak 

levels at many observation wells were not reached until mid-summer, two 01 

three months later than usual, chiefly because of heavy rains that fell ir. 

May and June. The net rise in the water 'cable on Long Island of over 1 

foot during 1943 resulted in an increase in storage of many billions of 

gallons of ground-water.

Prior to 1942, overdevelopment of the ground-water resources in Kings 

County (Brooklyn) had produced progressively declining water levels. As a 

result of this overdevelopment a "crater-like" depression was formed on 

the water table, the bottom of which was as much as 30 feet below sea 

level with water levels in pumping wells being at even greater depths. 

The decline of water levels was arrested in 1942 after which time the water 

table began to recover slowly at many localities in Brooklyn. The reversal 

of trend expressed a more favorable balance between recharge (natural and 

artificial) and pumpage. This can be attributed to the beneficial effects 

of the State law passed in 1933 which resulted in a regulation by the New 

York State Water Power and Control Commission that water pumped from new 

wells, for purposes of cooling, be returned to the ground. The gradual 

reduction in industria^|pumpage in Brooklyn as indicated by Johnson® was 

another important factor. The water table in Brooklyn has recovered very 

rapidly as the result of a complete shut-down in Jure 1947 of a private 

water supply company whose average daily withdrawals had amounted to about 

27 million gallons per day, or approximately 50 percent of the total 

pumpage in Brooklyn. By the end of 1948, 18 months after the shut-down, 

recoveries as large as 15 feet had been measured in Flatbush in central 

Brooklyn, the former franchise area of the private water-supply company.

220 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

The sudden and large rise of water level at observation well K1264 

(fig. 7 ), beginning in July 1947 and continuing through the following 18 

months, is representative of the recoveries which occurred at many observation wells in the Platbush area. Water level records for the following 

observation wells in Platbush appear in the present report:

K196 K533

K519 K1263

K521 K1264

K523 K1479

K525 K1511

In other sections of Brooklyn, smaller recoveries were observed as 

evidenced by water levels at wells K1237 and K1266 (fig. 7) located 

to the north and east respectively of the Platbush area. An improvement 

in levels was noted also in the highly industrialized area in the northwestern part of Brooklyn, where overdevelopment has always been the greatest. At well K30 (fig. 7 ), an index well located near the center of the 

"crater", the recovery amounted to 4.49 feet in 18 months, 3,69 feet of 

which occurred in 1948. By the end of 1948, the water level at this well 

was 0.83 foot above the previous high measured on the first day of record 

on June 14, 1935. The water levels in Brooklyn had recovered by such 

appreciable amounts in the 18-month period ending December 1948, that the 

water table had returned to stages above mean sea level in the entire 

southern half of Kings County.

On Long Island, most of the water-level records since 1932 have been 

collected by the United States Geological Survey. All of the. records 

prior to 1932 and some of the data between 1932 and 1936 were obtained by 

the New York City Board of Water Supply and the New York City Department 

of Water Supply, Gas and Electricity. w

Tables presented below include a summary of data pertaining to groundwater levels for Long Island, the net change in water levels during 1948, 

and monthly, weekly, or daily water-level records. All readings are referred 

to mean sea level (Sandy Hook datum). Minus (-) si^ns indicate levels 

below mean sea level.

NOTE: Most of above wells screened in upper Pleistocene formations 

except those indicated by J (Jameco), L (Lloyd), and M (Magothy).

PRECIPITATION AND PUMPAGE

Precipitation in 1948 on Long Island was even greater than that in 

1947 and was above normal for the second consecutive year. It ranged from 

42.80 inches at Orient to 61.24 inches at Cutchogue, and averaged over 50 

inches for Long Island. At the Battery in New York City, a total of 54.25 

inches (11.26 inches above normal) was measured, this being the highest 

recorded since 1889. The accumulated excess during the first six months 

at this station was over 9 inches. At Setauket, 48.63 inches of precipitation was recorded during 1948, this being the greatest fall since 1942. 

Excessive precipitation occurred during May, June, and December in most 

parts of Long Island, and in some localities above normal rainfall fell in 

July and November. At some IT. S. Weather Bureau stations, the rainfall 

recorded for May and June was more than twice normal. For instance, the 

highest monthly precipitation of 10.85 inches was measured at Cutchogue in 

May. At Lake Ronkonkoma, 10.18 inches fell in December.

According to records furnished by the New York State Water Power and 

Control Commission, by the New York City Department of Water Supply, Gas and 

Electricity, by the Nassau County Department of Public Works, and other 

agencies and water districts, the combined pumpage for public water supply 

in 1948 in Kings, Queens, and Nassau Counties averaged 136 million gallons 

per day, or 6 percent below that in 1947. The decrease is attributed 

primarily to the complete cessation of pumpage in Kings County by the New 

York Water Service Corporation. A recent complete compilation of pumpage
228 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTICEASTERN STATES

for Suffolk County reveals a total of nearly 19 million gallons per day 

for publics-water supply which when added to that for the other three 

counties amounts to a total for Long Island of 155 million gallons per day. 

The total withdrawals for all uses, public water supply, industrial, 

agricultural, and domestic, is estimated to have been over 260 million 

gallons per day.

OHIO

By D. W. Van Tuyl 

PROGRAM OF WORK

Ground-wa*sr Investigations in Ohio were continued in 1948 in cooperation with the Ohio Water Resources Board, the Ohio Engineering 

Experiment Station, the Commissioners of Hamilton County, and the city of 

Canton. Field work was started on the investigation of the ground-water 

resources of Franklin, Clark, Ross, and Champaign Counties. The investigations were being continued in Lucas, Mahoning, Summit, Greene, and Stark 

Counties. Special studies, including pumping tests, were made in Delaware 

County, Muskingum County (New Concord), and Shelby County (Sidney). Infiltration studies were continued at Canton.

During 1948 automatic water-stage recorders were installed on 14 observation wells and removed from 5 observation wells in Ohio. At the end 

of the year 122 recorders were being maintained in 54 counties. In addition, weekly or periodic measurements were being made In 59 observation 

wells in 7 counties.

The 1948 water-level records for 178 observation wells are tabulated 

alphabetically by counties. The wells in Butler and Hamilton Counties are 

designated by numbers as given in Water-Supply Paper 999. The wells in 

other counties are designated by letter symbols, corresponding to the county 

names, followed by numbers for successive wells in each county. 

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The records of water levels in observation wells throughout Ohio showed 

that in 1948 only moderate recharge was received during the late winter and 

spring in the important ground-water formations. In general, the water 

levels rose during February, March, and April to approximately the same 

elevations as in 1947, but from elevations which were higher at the

1, KLaer, F. H., and Thompson, D. G., Ground-water resources of the 

Cincinnati area, Butler and Hamilton Counties, Ohio: U. S- Geol. Survey 

Water-Supply Paper 999.

beginning of 1948 than at the beginning of 1947. The normal recession 

during the summer and fall of 1948 brought water levels much lower than for 

the sane period In 1947 and about to the elevations observed at the end of 

1946. Most of the records showed some additions to ground-water storage 

from rains In November and December 1948.

Discussions of the fluctuations of water levels In specific areas are 

Included In a detailed report2 for 1948 published by the Ohio Department 

of Natural Resources, Division of Water (formerly Ohio Water Resources 

Board). Eight of the 27 plates of well hydrographs from that bulletin are 

Included In this report. Figures s to 12 show graphs of water levels In 

5 areas of heavy ground-water pumpage. Graphs of water levels In 20 selected observation wells In other areas are shown In figures 13 to 15 .

In the Mlddletown area the records for wells 29-1 and 25-5 show that 

good recharge was received In the spring. (See fig. 8 .) High flows In 

the adjacent Miami River caused water levels In the business section to 

rise to near-record elevations In April. A net decline of about 15 feet 

occurred In the American Rolling Mill area, southeast of Mlddletown, during 

1948. This area receives recharge only Indirectly and after considerable 

delay from the Miami River to the northwest and southwest. It Is probable 

that local pumping" rates were higher In 1948 than In the previous 4 to 6 

years and that withdrawals exceeded the recharge.

Ground-water levels In the lower Mill Creek Valley, north of 

Cincinnati, continued to decline slightly during 1948, as shown In figure 

9. This Is evident especially In the records of wells 252 and 265-5 In 

which recovery In the spring of 1948 was less than In 1946 and 1947. In 

spite of decreased pumping by Industries, no substantial net recoveries 

are occurring in the area.

The records of two wells in the Dayton area (Mt-2 and Mt-3) show the 

lowest water levels of record In the business section, and only moderate 

recharge during 1948. (See fig. 10 .) The water level in the shallow 

gravels In the Rohrers Island well field (Mt-l) was maintained from 5 to 

10 feet below land-surface datum during the year.

Fluctuations of ground-water levels in the Chillicothe area are shown 

in figure ll. In the spring, substantial recharge from the Scioto River 

and from Paint Creek caused large rises in all wells measured. In general, 

water levels were about the same at the end of 1948 as at the beginning, 

except in well Ro-5, which is only 20 feet from and is affected by a large 

production well.

Records of water levels in three wells in the Canton area are shown 

in figure 12 . Wells St-2 and St-S, in the business section, showed slight 

changes during 1948, indicating only moderate recharge to the glacial 

materials. Water levels outside the area of heavy pumping, indicated by 

the records for wells St-4 and St-10, fluctuated only a few feet during 

the year.

The graphs of water levels shown in figures 13-15 represent mostly 

rural wells and wells in small communities where ground-water pumping is 

not heavy. Although the records are less than 3 years in length, no progressive declines in water levels are indicated. Observation wells Pr-1 

and Pn-1, figure 13 , show fluctuations caused by changes in barometric 

pressure and wells Fr-3 and Fr-8 show fluctuations in response to changes 

in stage of nearby streams.

Observation well Ma-1, figure 14 , is in a municipal well field from 

which pumping was discontinued in August 1947. The water level in this 

field has recovered about 75 feet since that time. Wells Mn-1 and Md-1 

are in municipal well fields, and the records show fluctuations caused by 

local pumping. Well Mi-1 is at an industrial plant where wells are pumped 

during the week and shut down over week-ends. The pumping fluctuations are 

superimposed on the natural seasonal fluctuations.

The water levels in four municipal well fields are shown in figure 15 . 

The wells at Kent (observation well Po-2) are drilled in gravel, and wells 

at Columbus Grove (Pu-1), Woodville (S-l), and Green Springs (Se-1) are 

drilled in limestone aquifers.

PENNSYLVANIA 

By R. R. Huber 

PROGRAM OF WORK

In 1948, &s in previous years, the program of water-level measurements 

In observation wells In Pennsylvania was carried on In cooperation with 

the Topographic and Geologic Survey of the Pennsylvania Department of 

Internal Affairs. The State-wide network of wells, begun In 1931, was enlarged during 1948 with the addition of 16 wells. Seven of the new wells 

are in the Schuylkill Valley, in Schuylkill, Berks, and Montgomery Counties. 

Of these seven wells, two are being measured weekly and five are being 

measured at irregular intervals by staff members of the laboratory of the 

quality of water branch of the Geological Survey, at Schuylkill Haven. 

The remaining nine wells are on land owned by the Commonwealth of 

Pennsylvania, in Bucks, Berks, Pike, Luzerne, and Lackawanna Counties, and 

are being measured weekly by employees of the Pennsylvania Department of 

Forests and Waters. These wells were established as part of the Federal 

observation-well program. Not only .will this program make possible a more 

thorough coverage of observation wells but is designed to insure permanency of records by the location of wells on public rather than private lands.

in addition to the wells added to the State-wide network, three wells 

were added in Allegheny County by the Pittsburgh office of the ground 

water branch of the Geological Survey, making a total of 19 wells added to 

the Pennsylvania program in 1948. Well 112,- in Washington County, was reestablished in January after a lapse of 1 year. Measurements were discontinued in three wells in 1948.

About 8,000 measurements of water level, distributed among 81 wells, 

were recorded for the year. Eighteen automatic water-stage recorders were 

in use in 1948, 15 of them at the Philadelphia Naval Base. Daily measurements are given for all wells equipped with recorders. In 54 of the wells 

measurements were made weekly, and in 9 of the wells measurements were made 

at irregular intervals.

374 W&TER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

Measurements of 21 observation wells in the Susquehanna River Basin 

in Pennsylvania were made available each week to the Pennsylvania Water 

and Power Company at Baltimore, Maryland. Prom these measurements, company engineers computed weekly predictions of the minimum stream flow of 

the Susquehanna River at the company'3 hydroelectric plants thereby making 

possible a more economical operation of the company's hydroelectric plants 

during periods of low flow in the river. The program of research entailed 

in making these predictions was begun in 1930 and provides a valuable 

basis for establishing similar studies in other areas of the State. 

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

Weekly measurements of 30 observation wells distributed over the 

State have been converted to feet abov*» assumed datum planes and arithmetically averaged. This weekly average for 1948 is shown in figure 16 , 

together with the highest ana lowest weekly averages occuring during the 

period 1932-47. The records for two of the new wells established in 1948 

were converted to assumed datum planes and used in computing the weekly 

averages for the State. The observation wells in Philadelphia and 

Allegheny Counties have been omitted from this average because they reflect conditions of local municipal and industrial ground-water use and 

are not representative of conditions elsewhere in Pennsylvania. Figure 

16 also shows the monthly mean precipitation for Pennsylvania in 1948, 

and the normal precipitation based on records over a period of 61 years.

In the following table the 16-year weekly average (1932-47) of wate 

levels in observation wells in Pennsylvania is shown with the average of 

the water levels in observation wells for each week in 1948. The number 

of wells reported each week is also tabulated.

The year began with the weekly average water level slightly below 

normal. A deficiency In rainfall In January and February served to maintain the level below the 16-year average, but a warm period In mid-February 

caused the snow that had accumulated during January to thaw and a sharp 

upward trend In the level resulted. This trend continued through March 

and the second wettest April on record, reaching the maximum for the year 

in the third week of April. The highest average water-levels ever recorded 

for the period were reached in the last werek of March and the six succeeding weeks. Prom the year's high in April the average water level followed 

a slow downward trend during the spring and summer months, culminating in 

the lowest average for 1948 during the second week in October, following 

an extremely dry September. Heavy rains in November and December caused 

another sharp upward trend in the level, climaxed by a record high for the 

third week In December. As the year ended, the weekly average water level 

was well above the 16-year average for the period.

The significant features of the weekly average water-level hydrograph 

may be summarized as a sharp upward trend caused by a February thaw and 

heavy rains in March and April; a slow downward trend during the summer 

months culminating In the years low following an unusually dry September; 

and a second sharp upward trend during the wet fall months. The close 

relationship during 1948 between fluctuations of the weekly average water 

level and changes In the State-wide average of precipitation emphasizes 

once again the relatively low storage capacity of the surface rocks of 

Pennsylvania. The hold-over capacity of ground-water storage, In the 

absence of recharge from precipitation, is measured in weeks or a few 

months at the most, rather than In years.
PENNSYLVANIA 377

Philadelphia area

Measurements were continued during 1948 in the 22 observation wells in 

south,Philadelphia. Daily measurement were obtained from the 17 wells 

equipped with automatic water-stage recorders and weekly tape readings were 

obtained from the remaining 5 wells. Hydrographs of these wells indicate 

that during the year Water levels, in general, remained fairly constant, 

showing only the effects of tides and periodic operation of large wells. 

No persistent downward trend has been recognized for the area, even though 

the sands and gravels in which the wells are situated constitute the main 

source of supply for the Philadelphia Naval Base and many industries in 

the region. It has been estimated that at the prevailing rate of discharge 

these sands and gravels underlying the Philadelphia area would be dewatered 

completely within 5 years if there were no recharge. Recharge that normally would occur from precipitation is intercepted to a large extent by 

the municipal sewerage system. Undoubtedly, the Delaware and Schuylkill 

Rivers provide much of the recharge to the ground-water supply, but the 

location of the chief areas of river infiltration and the amount of such 

infiltration have not been identified. Although levels in observation 

wells seem to indicate a state of equilibrium between discharge and recharge 

at the present time, increased withdrawal planned from the formation in 

adjacent areas is expected to lower water levels in south Philadelphia.

Pittsburgh area

During 1948, 15 wells were measured weekly in the heavily pumped 

"Triangle area" of Pittsburgh. Analysis of the hydrographs of the wells 

does not indicate an annual downward trend in water level for the 3-year 

period of record. The lowest water levels occur during the hot summer 

months when air-conditioning pumpage, which constitutes one of the main 

uses of ground water in the area, is at its peak. Although a longer period 

of record is needed in order to evaluate properly the annual trend in water 

levels in the gravel stratum underlying downtown Pittsburgh, the available 

evidence indicates that recharge from the rivers bounding the area on two 

sides is in equilibrium with present rates of withdrawal. It is probable 

that an increase in the draft on the aquifer by future expansion of air 

conditioning in downtown Pittsburgh will result in further lowering of water 

levels during the summer months.

RHODE ISLAND 

By W. B. Alien

PROGRAM OF WORK

The investigation of the ground-water resources of Rhode Island was 

continued in 1948. As a result of a consolidation of various State agencies, 

.the title of the cooperating agency was changed on July 1, 1948, to the 

Rhode Island Port and Industrial Development CommissionThe program in Rhode Island during 1948 was directed towards the 

investigation of ground-water conditions in critical areas throughout the 

State where large quantities of water are pumped for industrial use and 

public supply. A detailed report on the ground-water resources of the city 

of Woonsocket, an industrial area to the northwest of Providence, was completed. It is planned to publish this report as a part of Geological 

Bulletin 4 of the Rhode Island Port and Industrial Development Commission.

DuiJng the year, in addition to a detailed investigation of groundwater resources, samples of water were collected monthly from two industrial 

ground-water pumping plants in Providence for determining chloride content.

One phase of the cooperative work consists of the measurement of water 

levels in selected observation wells to determine changes in storage in 

underground reservoirs- About 2,300 individual measurements of water levels 

were made in 1948- During the year water levels were measured daily in 2 

observation wells, weekly in 21 wells, monthly in 22 wells, and annually in 

13 wells. Continuous records of water level were obtained during the year 

by automatic water-stage recorder which operated for 12 months on one well. 

Well Providence 1051 was added to the program in January 1948. Readings in 

four of the wells, Burrillville 28, Fast Greenwich 3, South Kingston 6, and 

Warwick 33, were discontinued at the end of 1947.

The locations of the observation wells in Rhode Island are shown on ar 

index map published in Water-Supply Paper 1096-

PRECIPITATION

Precipitation for the State as a whole during 1948 was 46.69 inches or 

about 5.2 inches more than in 1947 and about 3.9 inches greater than normal. 

The precipitation at Providence during the year was 50-47 inches, or 8-8 

inches more than in 1947 and about 11.1 inches greater than the normal for 

the preceding 44 years.

In general, the temperatures for the State were about average resulting in average losses by evaporation and transpiration. Thus, because of 

the above-normal precipitation, conditions were unusually favorable for 

recharge of ground-water reservoirs. The following tables summarize the 

data pertaining to ground-water levels in Rhode Island for 1948.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

Water levels, which were at about normal stages at the end of 1947 and 

through April 1948, rose to high seasonal stages at the end of May as the 

result of excessive precipitation in that month. Thereafter the seasonal 

decline due to evaporation and transpiration losses set in and continued 

through October. This decline was checked in November by above-normal rainfall and the decreasing needs of plants. Lack of precipitation in December 

did not materially affect the net rise in the water table during the year.
408 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHEASTERN STATES

In the following table are given the net changes in water levels in 

the observation wells, for which records are available, from the dates of 

the measurements nearest to December 31, 1947, to those nearest December 31, 

1948.

Twenty-three of the well^ showed net rises and only 14 showed net 

declines in water levels during 1948- Eight of the wells in which there 

were net declines in water level were affected by pumping in nearby wells.

VERMONT

By H. L. Free, Jr. 

PROGRAM OF WORK

Periodic measurements of water level in Vermont, begun in October 1942, 

were continued in 1948. Measurements were made monthly unt.il June 20, 1948, 

and weekly thereafter in one shallow observation well in the town of 

Middlesex, Washington County, near Wrightsville, which is about 3 miles 

north of Montpelier. Thirty-two measurements were made during the year. 

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The net rise in water level in this well during 1948 was about 1.2 

feet through December 27 and about 2.9 feet through January 3, 1949. The 

precipitation, as measured at nearby Northfield, totaled 34.21 inches in 

1948, which was 0.37 inch above normal.

The water level was below average at the end of January, February, 

April, May, September, and October and near or above ayerage throughout the 

rest of the year.

The water level dropped during January when cold weacher and snow prevented ground-water recharge. Although precipitation during February was 

far below normal, the water level rose slightly during the month following 

thawing weather. The rise in water level during March reflected higher 

temperatures which melted much of the snow cover and precipitation that was 

more nearly normal than during the preceding month. Below-normal precipitation during April contributed to the drop in water level during that 

month. The water level continued to drop until after the end of September. 

The above-normal precipitation during May and August did not appreciably 

alter the downward trend of water levels during the spring and summer. 

Below-normal rainfall during October resulted in very low water level, but 

above-normal precipitation in November and December raised the water level 

.to well above average. At the end of the year the water level was at its 

highest December stage since the beginning of record.
