WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE IN OBSERVATION WELLS 

IN THE UNITED STATES IN 1947

Part 5. NORTHWESTERN STATES

INTRODUCTION 

By A. N. Sayre and others

Significance of records of water level and artesian pressure 

The rock formations of the earth are great natural reservoirs in which 

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

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

weather. Water levels in wells register the stages of these natural reservoirs; they show the extent to which water jaupplies 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 changes in pressure recorded on 

flowing wells indicate depletion or replenishment of the artesian reservoirs.

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. The records for the entire country were published in a single volume each year through 1939. Beginning with 1940 the 

records have been published in six volumes, covering the northeastern, 

southeastern, north-central, south-central, northwestern, and southwestern 

sections of the country. Hawaii is included in the southwestern section. 

(See fig. 1.) The following table gives the numbers of these reports. 

This series of water-supply papers is in a sense an inventory, year by 

year, of the ground-water supplies in such parts of the country as have 

been covered.

Scope of present volume

The present volume covers the northwestern States and gives records 

of water level and artesian pressure in about 1,430 observation wells of 

the Geological Survey and cooperating agencies in Colorado, Idaho, Montana, 

Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. Of these wells, 48 are equipped 

with automatic water-stage recorders. For some wells not previously reported complete records of water level are given. For wells whbse 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 identifying description 

are given in this report. The numbers in parentheses immediately following 

a well number are those of the water-supply papers in which earlier records 

of that well are given and the pages on which they appear. An asterisk 

indicates that a description of the well is given in the paper whose number 

is so marked. This report includes about 6,450 individual determinations 

of water level and artesian pressure.

Land-surface datum

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

ing points and for other wells in feet above or below sea level or above 

or below various assumed datum planes. It had been considered inadvisable 

to adopt a standard procedure in expressing water levels and artesian head' 

until after a period of trial with datum planes of different kinds. In
INTRODUCTION 3

1943, however, it was decided that uniform practice should be adopted. Accordingly, precise datum planes were established approximating the land 

surface at each well. The water levels and artesian heads for all wells 

listed in this report are given in reference to land-surface datum planes.

Figure 1.--Outline map of the United States showing sections of the country 

covered by the six water-supply papers on water levels and artesian 

pressure in observation wells in 1947. The shaded section represents 

the part of the country covered by this volume.

If the 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. Wherever the conversion factor is given in earlier reports it is 

not repeated in this report. New data as to the positions of the measuring 

point and of the bench marks, in feet above or below land-surface datum 

planes, will be published in succeeding annual reports. 

Network of key observation wells

During 1942 the Geological Survey established a network of key observation wells in order to make available current information on general 

ground-water conditions over the country. These wells were selected because
4 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHWESTERN STATES

the fluctuations of water level in them are believed to be typical and they 

represent the general fluctuations that occur in the parts of the country 

in which the wells are situated. At the end of 1947 the network included 

about 160 wells in 45 States. About 40 of the wells were established expressly for the network in 1942 and about 20 were established in 1943; the 

other 100 were selected from wells measured regularly in connection with 

cooperative ground-water investigations. The coverage of the country is 

still far from adequate, and it is expected that some wells not now included will be added to the network from time to time.

Changes in ground-water level in 1947 in the northwestern 

part of the United States

The average precipitation in four of the States in the northwestern 

section Colorado, Idaho, Utah, and Wyoming was above normal in 1947. It 

was normal in Montana and below normal in Oregon and Washington. The 

fluctuations of both water level and artesian pressure in wells depend, 

however, on many factors besides the amount of precipitation. In certain

of the observation wells there are fluctuations caused by differences 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 artesiar 

flow. A summary of the changes in ground-water level is given in the chapter for each State.

PROGRAM OF WORK

The observation-well program in Colorado, which was begun in 1942 waa 

continued in 1947 in cooperation with the Colorado Water Conservation 

Board and with W. E. Code, Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station, 

Colorado A. and If. College.

During the year 1947 a report on the "Geology and ground-water resources of parts of Lincoln, Elbert, and El Faao Counties, Colorado, with 

special reference to Big Sandy Creek Valley above Limon", by Thad G. 

McLaughlin, was published as Ground-Water Series, Bulletin 1, of the 

Colorado Water Conservation Board. A report on the sump drain area of the 

San Luis Valley is being prepared. Field work was begun in 1947 in Baca 

County, in the Monte Vista area of the San Luia Valley, and in the South 

Platte River Valley between Kersey, Colorado, and Paxton, Nebraska. The 

South Platte project is being conducted in cooperation with the Bureau 

of Reclamation, U. S. Dept. of Interior, as a part of the Missouri Basin 

program. Studies were continued in 1947 in the Denver artesian basin and 

in the Grand Junction artesian basin in Mesa County.

Water-level measurements were being made in 210 wells at the end of 

1946. During the year measurements were discontinued in 10 wells and begun in 17 new wells. At the end of 1947, therefore, observations were 

being made in 217 wells, and 847 wetted-tape measurements are given below.

The water levels in 176 wells were measured twice yearly by W. E. 

Code; 3 of the wells were equipped with automatic water-stage recorders; 

60 wells, including 50 wells previously measured twice yearly by Code, 

were measured at monthly intervals by members of the Fort Morgan office of 

the division of ground water; 23 wells were'measured at monthly intervals 

by members of the Denver office of the division of ground water; 3 wells

were measured monthly by engineers of the Denver office of the division of

5

surface water, through the courtesy of Robert Follansbee, district engineer; and 1 well was observed monthly by a local observer.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

The well-numbering system used in this report is described in WaterSupply Paper 1027.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The measurement of water levels in eastern Colorado, which was begun 

in 1929 by W. E. Code, has furnished an Important record of ground-water 

conditions in that region. During the period 1929-47 the water table has 

been affected by the longest drought of record (1930-40) by a great expansion of irrigation with water from wells, and by a recent long period

of above normal precipitation (1941-47). Although the trends of water

!/ levels in the South Platte drainage area have been discussed by Code,

it is believed that enough additional Water-level data have been obtained 

to warrant further discussion of water-level fluctuations in that area. 

In addition, the fluctuations of water levels in areas outside the South 

Platte drainage, which have not heretofore been discussed, are summarized*

The following summary of water-level fluctuations deals only with 

those areas in Colorado where the record of observations covers at least 

5 years. For a more detailed description of the areas in the South Platte 

drainage basin the reader is referred to Code's reports. 

South Platte River Drainage area

Boxelder Creek, near Wellington. Measurements made in this area 

since 1929 by W. E. Code indicate a pronounced decline in water levels in 

the northern part of the area from the beginning of record until 1941. 

The rate of decline ranged from about 2 feet a year in the northern part 

of the area to essentially no decline near the confluence of -Boxelder 

Creek and Cache la Poudre River. Water levels in the upper part of the 

valley after reaching record lows in 1941 and 1942 rose abruptly to near 

record highs in 1943 and 1944 and declined rapidly to near record lows 

in 1946 and 1947. The wells in the lower part of the valley have had 

little or no effect on the general water level since the beginning of record.

Cache la Poudre River area. Five observation wells have been maintained 

by Code in the Cache la Poudre Valley. The records of water levels indicate no major fluctuations as the result of drought, pumping, or above-normal 

precipitation.

Lone Tree Creek area. The effects of pumping and of the long drought 

are shown clearly by the fluctuations of water levels in Lone Tree Greek 

Valley. The declines ranged from a few feet in some areas to as much as 

20 to 30 feet in a few localities near Eaton. The water levels in most 

wells reached their lowest points in 1940 and 1941 and then rose abruptly 

until 1943 after which they remained relatively stationary or declined 

slowly.

Prow Creek area. Irrigation wells in Crow Creek Valley obtain water 

not only from the alluvium but also from porous zones in the underlying 

Brule clay. The water table in the vicinity of Grill declined moderately 

during the drought and, after reaching lowest levels in 1940 and 1941, 

rose moderately for a few years and has remained relatively stationary since 

that time.

South Platte ValleT from Denver to LaSalle.---Water-level fluctuations 

in the upper part of the South Platte Valley show clearly the seasonal 

effects of applying surface water for irrigation. Water levels in the fall 

at the end of the irrigation season generally are from 2 to 10 feet higher 

than they are in the spring before irrigation begins. Except for seasonal 

fluctuations, the water table has remained essentially stationary since the 

beginning of record in 1929. In a few places, however, there was a moderate decline and low water levels generally were attained in 1941 and 1942. 

The water levels in those places have risen to normal levels during the 

recent period of above-normal precipitation*

Boxelder Creek. Records in this area were begun by Code in 1955. 

The water levels during the remainder of the drought were essentially 

constant or declined only slightly. There was an abrupt rise in water 

levels in 1942 after which they have remained nearly constant at levels 

above those recorded at the beginning of record in 1933.

Prospect Valley area. The fluctuations of water levels in the Prospect Valley area during the period from 1933 to 1944 are described in detail 

in Code's report on that area. Prom the beginning of record until 1941
WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHWESTERN STATES

there was an average annual decline in water levels amounting to about 2 

feet owing to the long drought and to excessive pumping for irrigation* 

Between 1941 and 1943 there was an abrupt rise in water levels in most of 

the observation wells in the area* Since that time most wells have risen 

gradually or have remained relatively stationary, although two wells declined to record lows in 1947.

Water-level fluctuations in this area show the seasonal effects of 

pumping even though surface water also is used for Irrigation. The water 

levels in the spring, before pumping begins, generally are from 2 to 6 

feet higher than they are in the fall at the end of the pumping season.

Kiowa Creek area. Irrigation in the Wiggins area along Kiowa Creek 

has developed largely since 1937. The records of water levels begun by 

Code between 1936 and 1933 show that there has been a general decline since 

pumping began. The decline was moderately constant at the rate of 0.25 

to 0.50 foot a year until 1946 and 1947 when declines were abrupt. The 

water levels in this area are lowest at the end of the pumping season but 

generally rise 2 or 3 feet before pumping begins in the spring. Seasonal 

fluctuations were particularly large in 1946 and 1947 when the water level 

declined as much as 3 feet in a few wells during the period of pumping.

Bijou Greek a^ea. Irrigation from wells has been developed in many 

places along Bijou Creek Valley, and records of water-level fluctuations 

in 17 wells are available. The water level in most of these wells declined 

steadily from the beginning of record in 1940 until 1945* The water level 

in some wells declined several feet in 1946 but there was an abrupt rise in 

water level in many wells in 1947.

Beaver Creek area. Although the number of irrigation wells in Beaver 

Creek Valley has increased from 53 in 1940 to 116 in 1947, there appears 

to be no serious lowering of the water table in that area to date. The 

water levels in most wells have not declined appreciably since the beginning of record in 1928 and 1929. In a few wells, however, there has been 

a decline of 2 to 3 feet sinoe 1942 probably because of the rapid increase 

in the number of pumping plants in that area. The water levels in this 

valley are always lowest in the fall at the end of the pumping season.
COLORADO

Lower South Platte VallgT. In the lower part ef the South Platte 

Valley extending from below Viggins to the Oolorado-Hebraaka State line 

the water table has not been greatly affected by pumping. In the area 

west of Fort Morgan the water table apparently declined during the few 

years preceding 1941 although the records for that period are Incomplete* 

The water levels in that area roae abruptly' between 1941 and 1943 but have 

declined slowly since then.

Below Port Morgan the water levels declined slightly from the beginning of record until about 1940 or 1941 and have risen since that time to 

the present record or near-record high levels. Irrigation with surface 

water In the lower South Flatte Valley causes a seasonal fluctuation of 

water levels amounting to about 2 feet. The water levels in this area 

are highest at the end of the irrigation season.

Aricansaa River Drainage area

Arkansas Valley in Otero County. The water levels in wells in the 

vicinity of Fowler have been measured periodically by W. B. Code since 

1929, The land in this area is Irrigated largely by water diverted from 

the Arkansas River, but supplementary supplies of water are pumped from 

wells. The effect of pumping upon the water levels in this area has been 

slight. Water levels declined slowly during the drought and reached lo* 

points during 1940 and 1941. The levels recovered rapidly In 1942 and 1943 

and have remained relatively constant since that time. The seasonal 

fluctuations generally amount to about 2 feet,-the highest levels being 

at the end of the irrigation season.

Arkansas Valley in Pueblo County. Although water levels in the vicinity of Pueblo have been measured by Code since 1929 and by the division 

of ground water since 1942, there appears to be no significant change in 

general ground-water conditions other than the seasonal fluctuations 

caused by the application of surface water for irrigation. The water 

levels in this area remained relatively constant throughout the drought 

but have risen slightly during the recent period of above-normal precipitation.

Colorado River Drainage area

Roaring Fork and Crystal Rivers area. Monthly observations of the 

water levels in two wells (0-7-88-29ab and C-8-88-27bc) along the Crystal
10 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHWESTERN STATES

and Roaring Pork Rivers, in the vicinity of Garbondale, Colorado, have 

been made by members of the division of surface water since 1942. The 

water levels in these wells display large seasonal fluctuations. The 

water levels are lowest during the first months of the year, rise abruptly 

in the spring, reaching their highest levels in midsummer, and decline 

during the remainder of the year. The summer level in well C-8-88-27bc, 

near Roaring Pork River, generally is about 15 feet higher than the winter 

level, and the summer level in well C-7-88-29ab, near Crystal River, generr 

ally is about 8 feet above the winter level. Inasmuch as the average 

magnitude of these fluctuations is several times as great as the average 

magnitude of fluctuations of gage heights in the nearby streams, the waterlevel fluctuations are believed to be caused by rapid recharge from melting 

snow during the spring. After the snow has melted and the recharge has 

become relatively small, the water level declines as the ground water is 

discharged into the streams or is lost by transpiration or evaporation. 

Only small quantities of water are pumped for domestic use from well 

C-8-88-27bc and no water is pumped from well C-7-88-29ab.

Except for the seasonal fluctuations there has been no significant 

trend in water levels in these wells since the records were begun.

IDAHO

By R- t. Nace 

PROGRAM OP WORK

Systematic Investigation of the ground-water resources of Idaho were 

begun In 1946 In cooperation with the Idaho Department of Reclamation. 

The Investigations Include Inventories and special areal studies of geology 

and ground-water resources, and the development of a State-wide network 

of selected wells In which periodic observations are made of fluctuations 

In static water levels and artesian pressures.

The network of observation wells was somewhat expanded In 1947 to 

achieve better coverage of Important areas In the State. At the end of the 

year observations were being made In the 10 counties of Ada, Boise, Bonnevllle, Canyon, Cassia, Elmore, Kootenal, Latah, Mlnldoka, and OneldaMeasurements of observation wells In Ada and Canyon Counties are made by 

the Geological Survey and the Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District, In 

Kootenal County by the Geological Survey and the Washington Water Power 

Company, and elsewhere by the Geological Survey and local observers. 

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

Water levels In most wells In Kootenal County were slightly above 

the 1946 year-end levels, and well above average levels. The gains represent increased underground storage resulting from a substantial excess 

of precipitation during the year. In May one well In Latah County reached 

its lowest level of record, and water levels In this well are consistently 

lower than in 1940, the last previous year in which, the well was measured.

In a single observation well In Boise County the water level reached 

Its lowest level of record in August, but by the end of the year it had 

recovered substantially.

Observation wells in the Boise Valley of Ada and Canyon Counties are 

In a heavily Irrigated area where the effects of local precipitation orr

water levels are largely masked by the effects of recharge by seepage

losses from irrigation. Local complications in water-level fluctuations 

are introduced also by drainage canals and pumped drainage wells. The 

seven wells that were measured showed small net rises of less than 2 feet 

during the year. Total rainfall in the area was well below normal but somewhat more than during 1946. The increased precipitation doubtless preduced a small net gain in underground storage.

The Raft River area, Cassia County, is represented by a single well, 

in which there was a net decline of 0.5 foot despite 50 percent more 

precipitation than in 1946. Both surface- and ground-water supplies in the 

Raft River Valley are relatively small. During the past several years new 

developments have produced a progressive increase in the draft on underground supplies. The effects of further development on underground storage 

require close observation.

The single observation well in Bonneville County showed a net decline 

in the water table of 0.9 foot in 1947, possibly the result of a slight 

rainfall deficiency.

Of 24 flowing and nonflowing wells in the Malad Valley, Oneida County, 

5 show small net rises of water levels during the year; for 6 wells yearend water levels are not available for comparison; the remaining 13 wella 

show net declines of 0-1 foot to 6.8 feet. Precipitation in the area was 

slightly above normal and exceeded the 1946 total. The range of waterlevel fluctuations during the year was unusually large; in May and June 

seven wells reached their highest levels in 5 to 7 years of record; three 

of the same wells, and four others dropped to their lowest recorded levels 

in October. Variations in the net changes of water levels in individual 

wells in the Malad Valley are partly the result of local pumpage and discharge by flowing wells. On the other hand, the generally lowered year-end 

water levels in the valley reflect withdrawals from permanent storage by 

increased irrigation pumpage. Available evidence does not indicate that 

overdraft on underground storage has occurred, but the effects of further 

ground-water developments on permanent underground storage require close 

observation.

Water-level fluctuations during 1947 in 41 observation wells with 5 

or more years of record are summarized in the following tables.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

Idaho well numbers indicate the locations of wells within the official 

rectangular subdivisions of the public lands, with reference to the Boiae 

base line and meridian. The first two segments of a number designate the 

township and range. The third segment gives the section number, followed 

by two letters and a numeral, which indicate the quarter-section, 40-acre 

tract, and serial number of the well within the tract. Quarter-sections 

are lettered a, b, c, and d in counterclockwise order from the northeast 

quarter of each section, as in the diagram below. Within quarter-sections 

the 40-acre tracts are lettered in the same manner. Well 7S 2E-34cal is in

PROGRAM OP WORK

The observation-well program In the valley and delta area between 

Kaliapell and Flathead Lake, In Flathead County, was discontinued between 

December 1944 and December 1946 but has been carried on since then by the 

Bureau of Reclamation In cooperation with the Geological Survey. This 

Investigation was begun In May 1928 by the Geological Survey under the 

authorization of the Federal Power Commission to determine the effects of 

the water table under about 25 square miles of area by the regulation of 

the altitude of the water surface In Flathead Lake and Flathead River. 

Flathead Lake has been subject to regulation by Kerr Dam since April 1938, 

and this Information Is needed In connection with questions relating to 

the effects of regulation on agriculture and construction projects In the

area. The results of a study of the records for 19S8 to 1937, inclusive,

I/ 

are contained In a report by Cady. Between December 1946 and October

1947, the latest measurements received, 405 measurements were made In 36 

of the original 47 observation wells, the others having been destroyed. 

The locations and descriptions of the wells In Flathead County are published In Water-Supply Papers 777 and 990; for convenience, the descriptions of those wells In which water levels were measured during 1946 and 

1947 are reported herein. Records of water levels In the wells from 1928 

through 1944 are published in Water-Supply Papers 777, 817, 840, 845, 886, 

910, 940, 990, and 1020. The wells In Prairie and Valley Counties reported 

In Water-Supply Papers 990 and 1020 have not been measured since the 

summer of 1944.

Since 1942 wells In Blaine and Mlssoula Counties have been measured 

under the direction of A. H. Tuttle, district engineer, division of surface water of the Geological Survey.

In late 1945, 1946, and 1947 measurements were started on 59 wells 

in Hill, Chouteau, Valley, Roosevelt, and Sheridan Counties. These observation wells were established in connection with geologic and hydrologic 

investigations being made of areas proposed for irrigation under the 

Missouri River Basin Development Plan. Some of the measurements on these 

wells have been made by members of the Bureau of Reclamation. Since these 

wells were established a total of 575 measurements has been made.

During June and early July 1947, 25 additional observation wells were 

established to give a better State-wide coverage. These wells have been 

measured under the direction of A. H. Tuttle, district engineer of the 

Geological Survey. A total of 83 measurements was made in these wells 

during the latter part of the year.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

The records of water levels in observation wells given in the following pages are shown by counties in alphabetical sequence. Under each 

county the records are given in order of well numbers. All wells are 

numbered in accordance with a coordinate system, based on Bureau of Land 

Management surveys, which has been adopted for use in all ground-water 

studies in the Missouri River Basin and made in connection with the 

Missouri River Basin development plan. The well number, under this system, 

also gives the location of the well by township, range, and section. The 

State of Montana is divided under the Montana principal meridian and base 

line system and the first letter (capital) of the well number indicates 

the quadrant in which the well lies. These quadrants are lettered A, B, 

C, and D beginning in the northeast quadrant and continuing in a counterclockwise direction. The first number indicates the location of the well 

by township; the second by range; the third by section. The lower-case 

letters following the section number indicate the location of the well in 

the section. The first letter locates it in the-quarter section and the 

second in the quarter-quarter section or 40-acre tract. The letters are 

assigned beginning in the northeast quarter and continuing in a counterclockwise direction. If two or more wells are located within the same 40- 

acre tract, they are assigned consecutive serial numbers after the lowercase letters. Figure 2 illustrates this well-numbering system.

Previous water-supply papers reporting measurements of the depth to 

water in wells in Plathead County have identified the wells by serial numbers. This report establishes a uniform, coordinate system of well numbering which has been described in preceding pftges and the following tabulation 

gives a cross index of the old and new numbers; the number in parentheses 

which follows the new well number in the following tabulation of well 

measurements in Plathead County is also the old well number:

SCOPE OP THE WATER-LEVEL PROGRAM

The water-level program of Oregon was continued during 1947 in cooperation with Oregon State Engineer- Measurements were made through the year 

at 78 wells. Twenty wells were discontinued and descriptions of 4 wells ap 

pear in this report for the first time. Altogether, 845 measurements of 

water level or pressure head were made not including readings from recorder 

charts; also included in this report are 87 measurements made prior to 1947 

Two float gages were in operation throughout the year and one automatic 

water-stage recorder was in operation during part of the year- A local cbserver made weekly tape measurements at one well, and at three other wells 

the owners made daily to monthly readings of pressure head either with water manometer tubes or pressure gage.

During the year, two reports were completed and released, one on grcion 

water in the Prineville area and the other on ground-water contamination in. 

the North Salem area. In addition, the Lake County report which was held 

in abeyance during the war is being revised for early release, a report on. 

well interference in the Beaverton area was started, and field work on a 

ground-water inventory of the Walla Walla River Ba'sin, in ISnatilla County, 

is in progress. This work is all being carried on in cooperation with tl ^ 

Oregon State Engineer.

PRFCIPITATION

The first of the two following tables shows average monthly and seasonal distribution of precipitation at two representative stations for 50 

years of record, in inches and in percentage of the whole; also, for the 

water year ending September 30, 1947, it is shown in percentage of the aver 

age of record. The second table shows the precipitation in inches for the 

water year ending September 30, 1947, and in percentage of the 50-year aver

age at 18 representative stations in the State. Precipitation over most of

SUMMARY OF WATER-LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS 

Willamette Valley subprovince

Four rounds of water-level measurements were made in 14 wells in the 

Willamette Valley. In well 1N/1-34N1 (US 107), at Portland, 13 measurements were made for the Nation-wide monthly Water Resources Review. In 

well 15/4W-32M1, at Junction City, 53 tape measurements were made by a 

local observer. Altogether 115 measurements of water level were made in 

*L5 wella in 1947. The description of one well appears in this report for 

the first time. The table for this well includes three measurements made 

prior to 1947.

In 13 wells for which comparable measurements were available, the 

year-end .water levels were 0.36 foot higher in 1947 than in 1946.

Wells in the Willamette Valley subprovince are listed under Benton, 

Lane, Linn, Marion, Multnomah, and Yamhill Counties. 

Deschutes River subprovince 

Prineville area

Rounds of water-level measurements were made 3 times in 1947. The 

number of wells was reduced after May 1947 because the detailed investigation in this area had disclosed the more representative "index" wells. 

Altogether, 207 measurements of water level were made in 23 walls in 1947. 

Also included in this report are 42 measurements made prior to 1947. 

Twenty wells were discontinued in this report and descriptions for 3 wells 

are published for the first time. One pressure gage and one water manometer tube were in use throughout the year and an automatic water-stage 

recorder and another water manometer tube were in use during part of the 

year.

In three wells having comparable'records, two drawing water from the 

Pleistocene (?) artesian aquifer show an average decline of 4.04 feet 

while the other, which is about 3.5 miles northwest of Prineville and out 

of the area of heavier pumping, shows a rise of 4.70 feet over the year-enH 

level of 1946.

Records for observation wells in the Prineville area are listed under 

Crook County.
OREGON 66

Simmer Lake subprovince

Two rounds of measurements were made in 1947 on seven wells in the 

Fork Rock Valley and one well in the Chewaucan River Valley. Water levels 

in October 1947 were slightly below those of July 1946. Records for these 

wells are listed under Lake County.

Walla Walla subprovince

In the Walla Walla Basin 27 rounds of water-level measurements were 

made, 9 rounds by W- C- Mason, local watermaster, 16 by the Bureau of 

of Rsclamation, and 2 by the Geological Survey. In addition, a float gage 

was maintained throughout the year in one well and read at weekly intervals 

by the owner. In all, 448 measurements were made in 15 wells. 42 measurements made in 1946 are included in this report. One well was discontinued 

in 1947.

In the 15 wells, the September levels were on the average about 1.76 

feet below the September 1946 levels. In well 6N/35-36H1 the highest level 

of the year occurred in May and was 0.57 foot below the high of 1946. 

Wells in the Walla Walla Basin are listed under TJmatilla County. 

Barney Basin subprovince

Two rounds of water-level measurements were made in nine wells. One 

well equipped with a float gage was read at weekly intervals by a local 

observer. Altogether, 73 measurements of water level were made in 1947. 

Measurement of one well was discontinued. At the float-gage well, 23/31- 

33E1, the September-end water level of 1947 was 0.20 foot below the 

September-end water level of 1946, but the high water level of 1947 in 

June -was 0.69 foot above the high level of 1946, which also occurred in 

June. Records for these wells are listed under Barney county. 

Grande Ronde subprovince

Observation wells maintained in the Orande Ronde subprovince are in 

botk the "Baker" (Powder River) and the Orande Ronde valleys. Two rounds 

of water levels were made in each of these areas during 1947. In the 

Baker Valley, three of the four wells measured in May 1947 were slightly 

above the July measurement in 1946, and the fourth well was slightly below 

its 1946 level. At three wells in the Orande Ronde Valley, the water 

levels in May 1947 were slightly higher than those of July 1946. Records 

for observation wells in these two valleys are listed under Baker and 

Union counties.

PROGRAM OP WORK

Ground-water Investigations in Utah, in cooperation with the State 

Engineer, have been in progress since 1935. The investigations include two 

interrelated programs which may be designated as (l) a yearly State-wide 

inventory of ground-water storage based on periodic measurements and on 

continuous records of water-level fluctuations in selected wells in each 

of the more important ground-water basins, and (2) detailed studies of individual basins to determine the source, movement, and disposal of the 

ground water and to show the relation of present development to the maximun 

economic development that is possible in those areas.

The relative amounts of water stored from year to year in underground 

reservoirs may be determined from the measurements of water levels In wells 

in much the same way that storage in a surface reservoir is determined fron 

observation of Its stages. Records of water-level fluctuations in wells 

are useful, also, in showing the periods and amounts of natural recharge, 

the effects of natural and artificial discharge, the direction of movement 

of the water, and in many other ways. The usefulness of the measurements 

increases, in general, with the length of the record. Long-period records 

are especially valuable In the detailed studies of the source, movement, 

and disposal of ground water in individual basins. The State-wide program 

thus serves, not only as a yearly Inventory of ground-water storage, but 

also as a source of basic data for subsequent detailed studies.

The State-wide inventory now includes measurements In 42 ground-water 

areas, comprising practically all of the regions in which wells have been 

developed in the State. In each of these areas the selected observation 

wells are measured periodically with a steel tape, or, In the case of a 

flowing well, with a mercury manometer gage. In many of the areas one or 

more wells are equipped with continuous recording water-stage or pressure 

80
UTAH 81

gages which are serviced once a week. During 1947 a total of 1,967 measurements were made in 654 wells and 41 water-stage and pressure recorders were 

maintained. The data thus collected are tabulated -and summarized in this. 

annual volume on water levels and artesian pressure in observation wells 

in the northwestern States.

Two other agencies assisted the Federal Geological Survey in making 

measurements in observation wells included in the State-wide program. 

Measurements of water levels were made by Suit Lake City Corporation in 

Salt Lake County and by the Bureau of Reclamation, United States Department 

of the Interior, in Wasatch County. Measurements by these agencies are indicated in the tabulation.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

I/ 

Utah lies within three ground-water provinces as outlined by Meinzer.

The three that include parts of Utah are the Southwestern Bolson province, 

the Montana-Arizona plateau, and the Northern Rocky Mountains province, 

which are approximately coextensive with the Utah portions of the Basin and

Range, Colorado plateau, and Middle Rocky Mountains physiographic provinces

2/ 

as outlined by penneman. The characteristics peculiar to each of these

3/ 

ground-water provinces have been described in an earlier report. Each of

the three provinces has been divided into several ground-water areas, and 

for each area representative observation wells have been selected to show 

the changes in water levels each year. The net rise or decline of level is 

the mathematical average of the changes in water levels in the selected 

wells making up a group and may be considerably different from the changes

in water level in individual wells in the area. A summary of the water

i/ levels for the period 1935-45 is given in an earlier report.

Average water-level changes in groups of observation wells in areas 

within the Southwestern Bolson ranged from -2.4 feet to 4-3.8 feet during 

1947. In the Plowell district, Pavant Valley, water levels in observation

wells rose on an average of 5.2 feet, and at the end of 194? were higher 

than at any time since 1929. Of the 27 areas under observation, water 

levels declined In 16 and rose In 11 during the year.

In ground-water areas of the Northern Rocky Mountains province water 

levels In observation wells were generally about the same at the end of 

1947 as at the end of 1946,

The average change In observation wells In areas of the Montana-Arizona plateau province ranged from +2.3 feet In Sanpete Valley to -1.1 feet 

In the San Juan river area. Of the nine areas under observation, water 

levels declined In four and rose In five.

WELL DESCRIPTIONS AND WATER-LEVEL MEASUREMENTS

Observation wells In Utah are listed alphabetically by counties, and

numerically within the ground-water areas. Wells are listed by their coI/ 

ordlnate number In numerical' order under each area or district. The

State claim or application number Is that used In the State Engineer's 

records. Claim number Is for wells that were used prior to the passage of 

the ground-water law In March 1935 and application numbers refer to wells 

developed subsequently.

The table Includes statements as to depth, diameter, measuring point, 

and other data on new observation wells, for which no records have been 

published previously. All other wells have been listed In Water-Supply 

Paper 1075, together with references to earlier publications that Include 

water-level measurements. In the following list, the data for each well 

Include the location or coordinate number, the State claim or application 

number, and the name of the owner of the well. Thereafter the dates of 

water-level measurements In 1947 are listed, with the position of the water 

level In feet below land-surface datum unless otherwise Indicated. Wells 

that were discharging by artesian flow when visited were closed for a period of 10 minutes prior to measurement of artesian pressure.

The following table shows the number of observation wells In Utah by 

counties and areas within the counties, the number that have been discontinued, the number of automatic water-stage and pressure recorders In use, 

and the number of periodic measurements Included in the report.

WASHINGTON

By P. A. Watkins 

SCOPE OP WATER-LEVEL PROGRAM

The program of periodic measurements of water Levels in observation 

wells in the State of Washington was continued in 1947 in connection with 

several projects involved in a general inventory of the ground-water 

resources of the State. These projects were carried out in cooperation 

with the Washington State Department of Conservation and Development, the 

city of Tacoma, and Walla Walla County.

Field work was started on ground-water inventories in three different 

areas during the year, Whatcom County, Walla Walla County, and the Wenas 

Creek Valley. The work in Whatcom County and Wenas Valley is being carried 

on in cooperation with the Washington State Department of Conservation and 

Development and the Walla Walla County work is in cooperation with Walla 

Walla County. In addition, two reports on ground water were completed and 

placed in the open file one is on the Central Chehalis Valley and the 

other covers the South Bar area of Grays Harbor.

As the following table shows, the records obtained include 1,372 

measurements in 122 wells distributed unevenly over 19 of the 39 counties 

in the State. «*An automatic water-stage recorder was operated on one well 

throughout the, year. Nonrecording float gages were maintained throughout 

the year on 17 wells. These gages were read by local observers. Descriptions of 10 wells are given in this report for the first time, 1 each in 

Douglas, Elttitas, Pierce, Whatcom, and Whitman Counties, 2 in Lincoln 

a&d 3 in Thurston County.

Precipitation

The first of the two following tables shows seasonal distribution of 

precipitation at two representative stations in the State of Washington 

for 50 years of record, in inches and in percentage of the whole, also for 

the water-year ending September 30, 1947, in percentage. The second table 

shows the precipitation, in inches, for the water-year ending September 30, 

1947, and in percentage of the 50-year average at 13 representative 

stations in the State. These tables indicate that precipitation for the 

period was below normal over mpst of the State. Snowfall was above normal 

in the Cascade Range and the Okanogan Highlands and near normal for the 

rest of the State. That the annual precipitation is not in all cases reflected in ground-water levels for that year was shown by the measurements 

obtained on wells which tap water in the sand and gravel aquifer beneath 

the tight Vashon till capping in the Snohomish County area.

146 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHWESTERN STATES

Areas of intensive investigation 

Tacoma area, Puget Sound subprovince

The program of water-level measurements in observation wells was 

continued during 1947 in cooperation with the city of Tacoma. Three 

rounds of measurements were made covering 30 wells; in addition, 9 rounds 

of measurements were made at 7 municipal wells and 8 rounds were made at 

1 municipal well, by Lawrence Angeline, of the Tacoma Water Division. 

Pour wells equipped with float-gages were read at intervals varying from 

weekly to semimonthly. An automatic water-stage recorder was operated 

on one well throughout the year.

A description of one well is given in this report for the first time. 

The water-level records for this well include one measurement in 1945 and 

five measurements in 1946.

Ground-water levels in the Tacoma area were slightly higher in 

September 1947 than they were in September 1946. A group of eight 

selected wells show a rise of 0.05 foot.

Snohomish County, Puget Sound subprovince

The program of water-level measurements in observation wells was 

continued during 1947, although the number of wells and the frequency of 

measurements was reduced after June 1947. Five rounds of measurements were 

made covering 7 wells, three rounds covering 9 wells and one round covering1 

1 well. Altogether, measurements were made in 17 observation wells. In 

addition, a report on ground water in Snohomish County was completed and 

placed in the hands of the editor. This report was prepared in cooperation 

with Snohomish County Public Utility District No. 1.

Ground-water levels in Snohomish County were essentially the same in 

August 1947 as they were in August 1946 except in wells tapping the autotill sands and gravels. These wells show an'average rise of 0.33 foot 

an apparent regional rise in accordance with the long-range accumulative 

rainfall deviation cycle to which this aquifer responds. 

Columbia Basin, 'Columbia Plateau province

The water-level program in the Columbia Basin was continued in 1947 

in cooperation with the Washington State Department of Conservation and 

Development. The observation wells in this area are listed under the
WASHINGTON 147

counties of Adams, Franklin,and Grant. Pour rounds of measurements were 

made covering 20 wells, and 1 well, which is equipped with a float gage, 

was read at weekly intervals.

Ground-water levels in six selected wells which tap shallow sand and 

gravel showed an average decline of 1.81 feet, and water levels in 7 wells 

which tap the deeper basalt showed an average rise of less than 0.01 foot. 

Palouse River area, Columbia Plateau province

The obsevation well program in Whitman, county consisted of four rounds 

of measurements covering seven wells. One well is described for the first 

time in this report. The water-level records for this well include one 

measurement in 1945 and three in 1946.

Water levels in one shallow water-table well show a rise of 0.32 foot 

and in another well of the»aame type show a decline of 0.24 foot. Water 

levels in the artesian wells at Pullman and Steptoe continued their downward trend, showing an average decline of 1.38 feet.

Spokane Valley, Northern Rocky Mountains province

The program of water-level measurements in the Spokane Valley was 

continued during 1947 in cooperation with the Washington State Department 

of Conservation and Development. Float gages were maintained throughout 

the year on seven wells with readings daily to weekly by local observers. 

Tape measurements were made by representatives of either the Geological 

Survey or the Washington Water Power Company.

There was an average rise of 1.88 feet in eight selected wells in the 

arsa of effluent ground water that sustains the low flow of the Spokane 

River, and an average decline of 0.94 foot in four wells in the upstream 

area where the river Is influent. On the average, the year-end groundwater levels in 12 wells, expressed In relation to the observed ranges of 

fluctuations, were about 30 percent above the lowest stages of record.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

Observation wells are listed alphabetically by counties and numerically by townships within the county. The system has been described on 

page 157 of Water-Supply Paper 990.

PROGRAM OP WORK

Periodic measurements of water level In observation wells In Wyoming 

were continued In 1947 In cooperation with the Wyoming State Planning and 

Water Conservation Board. Measurements of the key observation wells were 

continued as described In Water-Supply Paper 1075, page 172.

At the beginning of 1947, 197 wells were being measured, and at the 

end of 1947, 124 wells were being measured. During the year, 341 waterlevel measurements were made. The key observation wells were measured 

monthly, and the other wells less frequently.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

A general description of the two areas under study in Laramie County 

Is given in Water-Supply Paper 990, pages 246-251.

Crook, Croshen, Fremont, and Sublette Counties

The observation wells in these counties penetrate alluvial deposits 

near the banks of streams, and the water levels in these wells fluctuated 

in response to variations in the stages of the streams and to seasonal 

differences in precipitation.

Laramie County 

Egbert-Pine Bluffs-Carpenter area

In the Egbert-Pine Bluffs part of the Egbert-Pine Bluffs-Carpenter 

area there was an average decline In water level of 0.5 foot from April 

1946 to April 1947 In 39 wells. This decline may be attributed largely to 

Increased pumping from wells In 1947 and, In part, to the fact that precipitation between April 1946 and April 1947 was 1.6 inches less than the precipitation between April 1945 and April 1946.

In the Carpenter area the average decline of water levels In 15 wells 

was 0.13 foot. The smaller decline in this area probably is due to the

geologic conditions there which are more favorable for recharge.

169
170 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHWESTERN STATES

Cheyenne area

In the Cheyenne well field the water levels in wells are rarely comparable to those in other areas because all the wells are affected by pumping. Pumping is seasonal, and the periods of pumping in any well varies. 

In the past, the water levels in the well field have declined steadily 

since pumping began, but they now appear to be approaching equilibrium 

under present pumping and climatic conditions.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

An explanation of the well-numbering system used in this report may 

be found in Water-Supply Paper 990, pages 251-252. The eight key observation wells are numbered in accordance with a Nation-wide network of observation wells.
