WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE IN OBSERVATION WELLS 

IN THE UNITED STATES IN 1949

Part 4. SOUTH-CENTRAL STATES

INTRODUCTION

By A. N. Sayre and others

The publication of records of water levels and artesian pressures 

annually in the United States was begun by the Geological Survey in 1935. 

Prior to 1940 the records were published in a single volume 1935, 777; 

1936, 817;- 1937, 840; 1938, 845; and 1939, 886. 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. 

The following table gives the numbers of water-level reports from 1940 

throurh 1949.

Ground-water investigations are concerned with the availability of 

usable water supplies, land drainage, flood control, construction of waterways and dams, mine drainage, and other problems to which the principles 

of ground-water hydrology are pertinent. vVater levels in wells indicate 

the stages of the aquifers; they show the extent to which water supplies
'WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1949, SOUTH-CENTRAL STATES

are depleted by drought or by heavy pumping, and the extent to which they 

are replenished in seasons of abundant rainfall or melting snow. The 

recorded changes of pressure in artesian wells also indicate depletion or 

replenishment of the artesian supplies.

Figure 1. Outline map of the United States showing States included in 

each of the six water-supply papers on water levels and artesian 

pressures in observation wells in 1949. The shaded area indicates 

the States included in this volume.

This volume gives records of water levels and artesian pressures in 

observation wells in the south-central States (Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, and Texas). Of the 1,858 wells listed, 73 are equipped with recording gages. Descriptive matter for some wells is given in previous reports. 

For wells not previously reported complete records of water levels are 

given. For wells whose previous records have been published this volume 

gives only the current records.

Before 1943, 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, a precise datum plane was selected at each well which was 

approximately the land surface. The water levels and artesian heads for 1 

all wells listed in this volume are referred to land-surface datum. Water 

levels above this datum are preceded by a plus (±) sign, those below this 

datum have no sign but are understood to be minus (-).

Measurement of water levels and artesian pressures in wells were 

made under the direction of the district supervisors of the Ground Water 

Branch in the several States. Verda M. Dougherty edited the reports; 

Rodney Hart edited the illustrations; and Perm Livingston had general 

charge of the nation-wide observation-well program.

ARKANSAS

By J. H. Criner 

PROGRAM OP WORK

The observation-well program in Arkansas, begun in the Grand Prairie 

region in 1927, was continued in 1949 in cooperation with the State Agricultural Experiment Station and the Federal Land Bank of St. Louis. In 

1949 the University of Arkansas, Institute of Science and Technology, also 

cooperated in the observation-well program. Professor Kyle Engler 

assisted in the measuring of water levels in the rice-growing areas. 

This report includes measurements made in 62 wells, one of which was 

equipped with a recording gage.

The Grand Prairie region is a part or the Gulf Coastal Plain. The 

section consists, at the top, of beds of clay, silt, sand, and gravel of 

Pleistocene age that range from less than 100 feet to 250 feet or more in 

thickness. Throughout practically the entire area the upper part of these 

beds, to a depth of 25 to 100 feet in different places, consists largely 

of clay or silt, which is apparently very impervious. The Grand Prairie 

region of Arkansas comprises Arkansas County, large parts of Lonoke and 

Prairie Counties, and small parts of Jefferson and ilonroe Counties. Rice 

is extensively cultivated in the region.

Vi/ater-Supply Paper 777' contains an account of the early pumping operations end their effect on the general ground-water level. In June 1945 

a comprehensive report summarizing; all of the work done in cooperative investigations was published by the University of Arkansas (College of Agriculture Bulletin 457). In March 1949 the State University Bureau of 

Research issued a report on the ground-water resources of Ashley County 

(Research Series No. 16). A report on the ground-water resources of the 

Crossett area, Ashley County, will also be published by the State 

University.
6 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1949, SOUTH-CENTRAL STATES

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVELS

The fluctuations of water levels in wells in the Grand Prairie region 

are caused, in part, by differences in natural recharge and discharge from 

the aquifer. The water levels in nearly all wells in the region fluctuate 

as a result of atmospheric pressure changesj this may be as much as 0.8 

foot in one day to 1 foot in a few days. Corrections for changes in 

atmospheric pressure can be made and are necessary to make accurate comparisons of water levels at different times. Measurements given here have 

not been corrected for atmospheric changes. In the extreme southeastern 

part of the region some fluctuation of water levels is caused by the changing stage of White River.

The greatest changes in water levels in the region are due to pumping. 

The water levels tend to stand highest in the spring before the irrigation 

pumping begins, then decline during the pumping period. The rate of decline is large at first, then gradually decreases. After pumping stops 

the water levels rise, rapidly at first, and then at a decreasing rate, 

and, by spring, tend to stand near the previous spring levels. The general 

trend of water level or artesian head may be determined by annual measurements made in the spring as late as possible before pumping begins. In 

some years the measurements of water levels were made in the fall, but then 

the general trend of water levels may be masked by local irregularities 

due to differences in pumping. Pall water-level measurements have not 

been made for several years.

Well 280, in the Grand Prairie region, is equipped with an automatic 

water-stage recorder, and measurements of the water level were given at 

times the recorder charts were changed, which was generally once a week. 

A continuous record of fluctuations of water level in this well has been 

obtained since August 1928.

There are three areas in Ashley County devoted chiefly to growing 

rice, the largest of which is in Pine Prairie, about 8 miles northeast of 

Hamburg. Another area is 4^.5 miles southwest of Hamburg, and the other 

area extends northwestward from Hamburg for a distance of about 5 miles. 

The land planted to rice in Ashley County increased from about 200 acres 

in 1942 to about 6,500 acres in 1949. Most of this is irrigated from wells,
ARKANSAS, ARKANSAS COUNTY

A program of annual spring measurements of depth to water levels in 

Irrigation wells in Ashley County was started in 1946. In 1949 measurements were made in 15 wells of which 10 are given in this report.

It is not possible to make a significant evaluation of the fluctuations of water level in Ashley County at present because of the short 

period of record and also because there are complex changes of the water 

levels caused by the rapid increase in the amount of ground water pumped 

and the expansion of the area from which It is withdrawn.

PROGRAM OF WORK

The observation-well program in Louisiana was begun in May 1938 in cooperation with the Louisiana Department of Conservation. An expansion of 

the program was made possible in 1943 when the Louisiana Department of 

Public Works also entered into cooperation with the Geological Survey. A 

modest addition to the scope of observations was made in 1948 and continued 

in 1949 .

Observations of water levels were made in 307 key wells in 31 parishes 

in 1949, in which a total of 2,334 individual tape measurements was made. 

Automatic water-stage recorders were in operation on 40 of these wells for 

at least a part of the year, enabling more reliable interpretation of 

measured water-level fluctuations. Of these recorders, 24 were of the weekly type and 16 were of the continuous type. Measurements were made on a 

weekly basis in 24 wells, at monthly intervals in 65 wells, at quarterly 

intervals in 120 wells, and in the remainder (89 wells), at irregular 

intervals.

All water-level measurements are given in feet below land-surface datum 

unless otherwise indicated.

The locations of all observation wells in Louisiana for which records 

were obtained are shown on the map, figure 2 . All measurements were made 

by members of the technical staff except those for Sc-6, at Norco, which 

were made through the cooperation of officials of the Shell Oil Company.

The investigational program was directed primarily toward solution of 

the industrial and irrigation water-supply problems of southwestern

Louisiana. Numerous local exploratory projects for cities and towns re1 

quired considerable attention. A water-supply paper on ground-water

conditions at Natchitoches was published in September.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVELS

Northern Louisiana. Observations of the water levels in wells were continued in the Bastrop area, in Morehouse Parish; near Monroe, in Ouachita 

Parish; near Springhill, in Webster Parish; and near Hodge, £n Jackson 

Parish. The records generally indicate little change in the water levels 

from previous years. However, the heavy withdrawals of water from the 

deeper sands (890 feet) at Bastrop caused a decline of water level during 

the year from 166 to 177 feet below land surface in well Mo-9. (See fig. 3.)

Levels in shallower (100-foot) wells at Bastrop showed no significant 

change during the year, although the ground-water conditions continue to be 

near critical.

Conditions in the deeper sands (250 to 400 feet) at Springhill were 

about the same as in 1948, but pumpage from a flanney Collector caused a 

decline of about 11 feet in nearby wells tapping the shallow (100 to 150 

feet) sands. Supply conditions continue to be critical in this area.

Records for a well, Ja-13, at Hodge (fig. 4 ) showed a recovering water 

level during the spring months but the water-level conditions during the 

last few months of 1949 are similar to those which occurred in 1948.

Central Louisiana. During 1949, 323 measurements of water level were 

made in 20 wells in Natchitoches, Grant, LaSalle, Rapides, and Winn Parishes. 

Of these wells, 14 were measured at monthly intervals, 5 at weekly intervals, 

and 1, R-26 at Alexandria, was equipped with- an automatic water-stage recorder .

Wells in the Alexandria area that tap the "1,100-foot" sand, the principal aquifer, showed a marked recovery, as shown by the hydrograph, figure

5 . Reduced demand from municipal wells in the urban area made possible by 

use of the Bayou Rapides well field outside the city is probably the most 

important factor influencing the trend.

At Pishville, in Grant Parish, the recorded pressure head of a well 

397 feet deep remained steady at about 3 feet above land-surface datum, the 

highest pressure recorded since 1947.

Artesian pressures of two wells that tap an aquifer in the Wilcox formation in the vicinity of the Natchitoches well field, about 5 miles south 

of the city, showed a slight rise during 1949.

16 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1949, SOUTH-CENTRAL STATES

Southwestern Louisiana. During 1949, 1,450 measurements of water level 

were made in wells in 12 parishes and automatic water-stage recorders were 

operated on 20 wells. The observation-well program was continued on a broad 

scale to enable preparation of piezometric maps of water in sand and gravel 

of Pleistocene age that supplied about 156 billion gallons of water in 1949 

for agricultural, municipal, and industrial purposes. Precipitation during 

the rice-growing season this year was about 3 inches above normal. As a 

result, the amount of ground water required for irrigation in 1949 was about 

67 billion gallons less than in 1948. Because of this decrease in total 

pumpage the water level decline for 1949 did not reach the low which 

occurred in 1948, as shown by the hydrograph, figure 7 .

Water levels in wells that tap the "500-foot" sand in the Lake 

Charles area showed little change from the previous year. The hydrograph, 

figure Qj illustrates the trend. Fluctuations were largely the result of 

withdrawals from wells tapping the "500-foot 11 sand for industrial purposes. 

Levels in the "700-foot" sand in the Lake Charles area, which is tapped by 

fewer industrial wells than the "500-foot" sand but supplies the municipal 

needs of Lake Charles, showed a marked decline during the summer months, 

but at no time during the year were levels as low as in the previous year. 

See figure 8 .

Southeastern Louisiana. 488 measurements of water level or artesian

\ 

pressure were made in 66 wells in 8 parishes in this area during 1949. In

addition, automatic water-stage recorders were operated on 1 well in Orleans 

Parish, 1 well in St. Charles Parish, and 10 wells in East Baton Rouge 

Parish.

Water levels in wells that tap the "A-l" and "A-2" sands in the Baton 

Rouge area, commonly referred to as the "400-foot 11 and "600-foot" sands, 

failed to recover to levels of the previous spring, as a result of continued 

heavy withdrawals from wells for industrial purposes. The decline and recovery of the water levels in key wells that tap these sands is graphically 

illustrated in figure 10. Records for well EB-312, which is 1,370 feet 

deep, shows a steady decline of the water level from about 5 feet below 

land-surface datum in January to a low of about 10 feet bel^w land-surface 

datum in December. The fluctuations of the water level in this well and 

in well EB-315, which taps sands that occur below a depth of 1,700 feet in 

the Baton Rouge area, are shown in figure 9.

LOUISIANA, ACADIA PARISH 19

The water level in well Sc-6, at Norco in St. Charles Parish, fell 

to a record low, about 77 feet below land-surface datum, in 1949. This 

decline in water level was not at an accelerated rate, but was the result 

of a gradual decline, as shown in the hydrograph, figure 6 .

Artesian pressures in key wells in the flowing-well area of southeastern Louisiana showed little change from previous years. Seasonal decline of a few feet during the irrigating season for strawberries and other 

truck crops was offset by recovery in the fall.

PROGRAM OP WORK

The observation-well program in Oklahoma, begun in 1934, was continued 

in 1949 in cooperation with the Oklahoma Geological Survey and the Oklahoma 

Agricultural and Mechfcnical College. In the Stillwater Creek Basin, Payne 

County, the program was continued in cooperation with Dr. H. J. Harper, 

head of the Department of Agronomy of the Oklahoma Agricultural and 

Mechanical College. Dr. M. J. Plice, also of the Department of Agronomy, 

who has served as voluntary well observer since 1940, made 87 measurements 

of water level In 1949. Measurements in an irrigation well at the Southwestern Cotton Substation near Tipton, Tillman County, started in 1944, 

were continued in 1949. The substation is operated by the Oklahoma 

Agricultural and Mechanical College and the United States Department of 

Agriculture. The rest of the observation-well program was conducted in 

cooperation with the Oklahoma Geological Survey.

The location of the observation wells are shown in figure 11 .

Brief descriptions of the topography, geology, and ground-water 

conditions of the parts of Oklahoma covered by the observation-well program have been published in previous water-supply papers in this series 

as follows: Stillwater Creek Basin, 777; the Panhandle, 840 and 845; 

Cleveland County, 886 and 939; North Canadian River Valley, 909; Canadian 

County, 947; Oklahoma County, 989 and 1026; Tillman County, 1019; Caddo 

County, 1086; Grady, Bills, and Ouster Counties, 1074; Comanche, Jackson, 

Kiowa, Roger Mills and Washita Counties, 1099; and Kay and Seminole 

Counties, 1129. McCurtaln County Is described in this report.

During 1949, about 1,500 tape measurements of water levels were made 

in 218 wells, and automatic water-stage recorders were operated in 7 wells. 

Observations were discontinued in five wells after several measurements 

had been made, and in seven others without measurements having been made.

Pour wells not measured in 1943 were retained. The number of wells on the 

active list at the end of 1949 was 224.

The frequency of measurement in the individual wells ranged in 1949 

from once a year, as in most of the observation wells of the panhandle 

counties, to once a week, as in Cleveland County. Measurements were made 

monthly in the wells in Grady, Oklahoma and Payne Counties. They were 

made two or three times a month in Caddo County during the first 4 months 

of the year, and then the frequency was changed to monthly. Most of the 

other wells were measured at irregular intervals.

A 21-page report entitled "Ground water in Kingfisher County, Oklahoma, 11 

by Stuart L. Schoff, and a 25-page report on "Ground-water supplies in the 

Oklahoma City area, Oklahoma," by C. L. Jacobaen and E. W. Heed, were 

published as Oklahoma Geological Survey Mineral Reports 19 and 20. An 

investigation of the ground-water resources of southern McCurtain County, 

stressing the water in the Trinity sand, was begun in September.

PRECIPITATION

Precipitation for 1949 averaged 38.88 inches. This amount is 5.87 

inches above or 118 percent of normal. The precipitation was well distributed over the State. The only section reporting more than 150 percent 

of its normal amount was in Texas County, while the only area receiving 

less than 90 percent of normal was in southern Kingfisher County. The 

western division averaged 30.65 inches during the year, 119 percent of the 

1892-1949 mean. In the central division precipitation averaged 37.56 

inches, or 112 percent, while in the eastern division precipitation 

averaged 48.02 inches or 119 percent. In the panhandle counties the 

precipitation averaged 23.50 inches. Departures from normal precipitation 

at four of the stations ranged from +2.44 inches at Boise City to +8.82 

inches at Hooker. Along the North Canadian River Valley, from Oklahoma 

City upstream to Beaver, the precipitation at 11 stations in 1949 ranged 

from 26.27 inches (Canton Dam) to 38.30 inches (Geary) and averaged 31.53 

inches. Departures from normal precipitation at five stations ranged from 

+2.86 inches at Oakwood to +9.92 inches at Geary. In the vicinity of 

Oklahoma City and Norman, six stations reported precipitation ranging from 

28.03 inches (North side disposal) to 43.82 inches (Norman, Oklahoma 

University). At the three stations for which normal precipitation has
OKLAHOMA 75

been established, the departures from normal ranged from -0.16 Inches at 

Oklahoma Olty to +8.47 Inches at Norman. In the Stlllwater Creek Basin, 

two stations reported precipitation in 1949 as 30.24 inches and 36.03 

inches. The departure from normal at Stillwater'was -3.11 Inches. In the 

area underlain by the Rush Springs sandstone in Caddo and Grady Counties, 

the precipitation at three stations ranged from 31.47 Inches to 38.46 

Inches and averaged 33.77 Inches. Departures from normal ranged from 

+0.66 Inches to +9.60 Inches.

FUMPAGE

Becords of ground-water pumpage for the larger towns in the panhandle 

counties are furnished regularly through the courtesy of the Southwestern 

Public Service Company. The total pumpage for eight towns was about 3 

percent less in 1949 than in 1948. The largest decrease was about 13 

percent at Forgan. Pumpage decreased about 7.3 percent at Guymon and 4.3 

percent at Beaver. The quantity of water pumped for irrigation and other 

uses by the Panhandle Agricultural and Mechanical College Increased about 

75 percent and this, along with increases at Boise City, Keyes, Pelt, and 

Texhoma, resulted in an increase of about 14 percent for the area as a 

whole. Including the estimated pumpage of Industries not supplied with 

water from municipal systems, and pumpage for irrigation, the total for 

1949 is 904,431,000 gallons or about 2,775 acre-feet.

Records for nine of the 23 irrigation wells in the Duke irrigation 

area show a total of 82,650,000 gallons, or about 251 acre-feet, pumped to

irrigate 325 acres--an average of 0.77 foot per acre. The amount of water 

pumped was reported to be relatively small in 1949 because precipitation 

was almost adequate for agricultural requirements.

Prom July 16 to August 31, about 5,995,000 gallons or 18 acre-f eet of 

water was pumped from the irrigation well at the Southwestern Cotton 

Substation near Tipton, Tillman County. The total pumpage was about 11 

percent greater in 1949 than it was in 1948.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVELS

Oklahoma Panhandle

The annual measurements of ground-water levels in Beaver, Texas, and 

Cimarron Counties, made about the middle of May, showed a widespread rise. 

The average reached O.G3 foot above the record set in .Vay 1948. New high 

averages were recorded in each of the three counties, the largest rise for 

the year being O.C3 foot in Beaver County. Since Ilovember 1938, the groundwater levels in the Panhandle have risen an average of 3.G4 feet.

In the following tables the wells are grouped according to counties 

and aquifers, and comparisons ars made between water levels in 1948 and 

1949. An asterisk indicates that the water level is the highest observed 

during the period of record.

Duke Irrigation Area

Measurements of water levels were made once or twice in 15 wells in 

Jackson and Greer Counties in the Duke irrigation area during 1949. In 

eight of the nine wells that were measured twice, the water levels rose 

from 0.24 foot to 4.06 feet between April and October, which is the period 

normally embracing the season of heavy pumping for irrigation. The summer 

precipitation was almost adequate to meet crop needs, and little pumping 

was done. The rise of ground-water levels suggests that recharge to the 

ground-water reservoir was greater than the pumpage,which 1 s estimated as 

only 0.77 acre-foot per irrigated acre.

Between June 1948 and April 1949 in both years prior to the irrigation season no great change seems to have occurred in the water levels. 

In two wells the water levels of April 1949 were 0.17 foot and 1.93 feet 

lower than in 1948; and in two others they were 0.83 foot and 2.88 feet 

higher. The average change for the four wells is a rise of 0.4 foot. 

Stillwater Creek Basin

Measurements of water levels in the Payne County (Stillwater Creek 

Basin) observation wells were made near the end of each month, except in 

January. The average of the water levels in nine wells fluctuated through 

a range of 4.35 feet. The highest stage was reached in May and the lowest 

stage in October. In December 1949 the average was 0.83 foot higher than 

it was in December 1948.

McCurtain County

Observations were begun late in 1949 in four wells in southern 

McCurtain County. As only one measurement was made in each of the four 

wells, no interpretation can be offered. McCurtain County is the southeasternmost county in Oklahoma. The Ouachita Mountains in the northern 

part of McCurtain County present a rough terrain generally unsuited to 

farming. Lumbering is the principal industry, population is sparse, and 

the demand for ground water is low. The bedrocks underlying the surface 

are complexly folded and faulted shale, schist, sandstone, chert, tuff, 

and novaculite, of Paleozoic age. These rocks generally yield only small 

quantities of water, mainly through secondary openings. Probably the best 

aquifer among these Paleozoic formations is the Crystal Mountain sandstone, 

exposed at the surface in T. 5 S., Rs. 23 and 24 .E. and T. 4 S., Rs. 24
78 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1949, SOUTH-CENTRAL STATES

and 25 E. Ground water discharging from it apparently maintains the 

nearly perennial flow of some of the streams. Approximately the southern 

half of the county is underlain by sedimentary rocks of Cretaceous and 

Quaternary age. The most promising aquifers are the Trinity sand, which 

has been tapped for public water supply by several of the smaller communities in the western part of the county, and the alluvium. The latter is 

found principally along the Red River, where the alluvial flats are several 

miles wide, and along Little River and its tributaries. North of Little 

River, in the outcrop area of the Trinity sand, the surface is gently to 

moderately rolling. Between Little River and the Red River, the surface 

ranges from flat to gently rolling.

The lowest daily water level in the Skelly Gas Corporation well in 

Seminole, is illustrated by a hydrograph in figure 13 . The lowest level 

for the year was recorded on January 24, and from that date the water level 

rose, with minor variations, until May 31, thereafter remaining relatively 

high for the rest of the year. The highest stage was recorded on November 

27. The net annual change was a rise of 6.04 feet, and the range of 

fluctuation was 7.66 feet.

Garber Sandstone and Wellington Formation

The average net annual change in water levels for the 11 wells in 

the Garber sandstone and Wellington formation in Oklahoma and 

Cleveland Counties was a rise of 4.39 feet, but the details of the waterlevel fluctuations were not uniform over the area considered. In most of 

the wells the net annual change compares water levels for December 1949 

with December 1948. Water levels in four deep wells In Oklahoma County 

in the Garber and Wellington sandstones are usually highest in spring and 

lowest in summer when pumping is heaviest. In 1949, this general pattern 

of fluctuation appeared in all except well 1, where the lowest stage was 

reached early in February, followed by a rapid rise to a high in April and 

resumption of the general pattern. Over the period of record the water 

level in well 1 has shown a downward trend, and in late November 1949 was 

25.59 feet below the level recorded in the initial measurement in 1943, 

and 4.30 below the stage of November 1948. Wells 2, 3, and 4 have shown 

much less pronounced downward trends, although large declines sometimes 

appear in the comparisons of month to month or year to year, due principally to differences in the magnitude and distribution of pumping at times

of measurement. Compared with December 1948, the water levels for December 1949 in wells 2 and 4 were 4.51 and 11.23 feet lower, respectively, 

whereas in well 3 the water level was 0.20 foot higher.

Fluctuations of water levels in the deep wells of Cleveland County 

are primarily a response to pumping, but a common pattern is shown only in 

wells 4 and 10, in the city of Norman. In both of these wells water 

levels were relatively high in the spring and low in the summer, then they 

rose rapidly from October to the end of the year. Prom December 1948 to 

December 1949, water levels in wells 4, 5, 6, 8, and 10 show net rises of 

33.87 feet, 1.18 feet, 4.46 feet, 19.67 feet, and 15.06 feet, respectively. 

In the same period, the net change in water levels in wells 11 and 12 were 

declines of 0.06 foot and 4.01 feet, respectively. Figure 12 gives 

hydrographs of water levels in two wells in the Garber sandstone and 

Wellington formation.

Rush Springs Sandstone

Measurements of water levels were made in 35 wells tapping water in 

the Rush Springs sandstone of Caddo County during 1949, and two of these 

were equipped with recording gages (fig. 13). Fluctuations of water 

levels ranged from 0.15 foot to 4.32 feet, except in well 18, in which the 

water level was influenced by pumping from nearby irrigation wells, and 

the fluctuations ranged through 24.37 feet. Annual net changes in''water 

levels computed for 12 wells from December 1948 to December 1949 were rises 

ranging from 0.17 foot to 1.36 feet and averaging 0.70 foot.

In Grady County, monthly water-level measurements were made in 11 

wells, tapping water in the Rush Springs sandstone and another well was 

equipped with a recording gage (fig. 13 ). Fluctuations of water level 

ranged from 1.36 feet to 6.04 feet, apparently in response to natural recharge and discharge, as there was no heavy pumping in the area. The 

record in Grady County contrasts sharply with that in Caddo County. Although the precipitation, as indicated by the Weather Bureau Station at 

Marlow, was greater in 1949 than in 1948, the water levels in 8 of the 12 

wells showed net annual declines ranging from 0.02 foot to 1.24 feet, while 

the other four showed net annual rises ranging from 0.23 foot to 1.84 feet. 

The average for the year was a decline, the reason for which is obscure. 

The net annual change is based on a comparison of the water levels of
82 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1949, SOUTEt-CENTRAL STATES

December 1949 with those for the same month In 1948, except for two wells 

for which the November water levels were used.

Water-level measurements were begun In two wells In Washlta County 

In 1949, four measurements being made in each well. The highest stages In 

both wells were recorded on October 6, and the lowest on October 28. The 

range of fluctuation was 0.54 foot for well 5, and 0.48 foot for well 6. 

The net changes In water levels were declines of 0.15 foot and 0.26 foot, 

respectively.

Ground Water In Alluvium

In the municipal well field of Ponca City one well, Kay County 1, 

was measured weekly In 1949. Several nearby wells are pumped regularly, 

and the observation well itself is pumped occasionally, therefore the 

water-level fluctuations are partly a response to pumping. The highest 

water level occurred on May 26, the lowest on December 29, and the range of 

fluctuation was 5.86 feet. The net change of water level from December 

1948 to December 1949 was a decline of 1.15 feet.

Water-level fluctuations in the alluvium of the Canadian River were 

observed In Canadian County well G53, near Union, and Cleveland County 14 

and 15, which are 25 and 40 miles, respectively, downstream. In all three 

wells the water levels were relatively low at the beginning of the year, 

but In response to heavy spring rains, they rose rapidly until May or June, 

and then declined just as rapidly until fall. At the end of the year, the 

water levels were slowly rising. The highest water levels were recorded 

in the spring and the lowest in winter, except In Cleveland 15, where the 

lowest was recorded in August. The fluctuations of water level ranged 

from 3.20 feet to 6.49 feet in the Individual wells, and the net annual 

rise In water level ranged from 0.41 foot to 1.56 feet, with the upstream 

wells showing the greatest rises.

Water-level measurements were made in 52 wells In the alluvium of the 

North Canadian River during 1949, the number of measurements ranging from 

1 to 52 In the Individual wells. The wells will be discussed In two groups: 

(a) a select group of 19 widely spaced wells representative of ground water 

In the alluvium from Oklahoma City to Beaver; and (b) a larger group of 

40 closely spaced wells In Canadian County which Includes seven wells of 

the first group.
OKLAHOMA 83

Water-level fluctuations in seven of the wells that are closest to 

the river are considered to be a response principally to river stages. 

The highest recorded stage in five of these wells came in June, but in 

Woodward County well 5 and Canadian County well RFC 4 it was in May. The 

lowest stages in Blaine County wells 1 and 2 and Woodward County 5 were 

recorded in October; in Canadian County RFC 1, Major County 1 and Woodward 

County 1 they were recorded in May; and the lowest stage in Canadian 

County RFC 4 was recorded in September. Annual net changes in five of the 

wells computed through different 12-month periods were rises of 0.12 

foot, 1.36 feet, 1.67 feet, 3.32 feet and 3.70 feet, and in two of the 

wells there were declines of 0.28 foot and 1.28 feet. High water levels 

in the other 11 wells of this group were recorded in the spring, but their 

lowest recorded levels occurred at various times throughout the year. 

Canadian County well 2 was not considered because it was influenced by 

pumping at El Reno.

In the group of 40 wells in Canadian County are 28 that were measured 

in both May and September. Water levels in 21 of these were at their highest recorder stages in May. From October 1948 to September 1949, 20 wells 

show net rises of water levels ranging from 0.03 foot to 2.23 feet, while 

water levels in four wells showed net declines ranging from 0.25 foot to 

1.29 feet. From April 1948 to May 1949, water levels rose in 11 wells by 

amounts ranging from 0.16 foot to 5.51 feet, while the water level in one 

well declined 0.65 foot. Measurements of water levels in three wells 

showed rises of 0.65 foot, 1.61 feet and 1.67 feet between December 1948 

and December 1949.

Measurements of water level have been made infrequently and irregularly in Jackson County well 1, which is about 9 miles west of Snyder and 

is the only observation well in the alluvium of the North Fork of Red 

River. In April 1949, the water level was 0.17 foot higher than in June 

of the preceding year. By October 1949, however, it had declined 0.17 foot 

and was 0.76 foot below the stage recorded in the initial measurement of 

June 1947.

Fluctuations of water levels in the alluvium of the Washita River 

are represented by Roger Mills County well 1, Ouster County well 1, Caddo 

County wells 2 and 3, and Grady County well 76. High water levels were

in Tillman County showed a range of 3.40 feet in water-level fluctuations in 1949. The highest level was on May 30, and evidently was a 

response to precipitation totaling 7.69 inches for the month of May, 

most of it coming in the period from May 13 to 18. The lowest level 

for the year was recorded on August 29, near the end of the irrigation season, after which the water level rose gradually until, on 

December 29, it was 1.11 feet above the lowest level but showed a 

net decline of 1.15 feet for the year (fig. 14). Measurements 

were begun in nine other wells in Tillman County in 1949, five of 

them being observed in April and October. In four of these, the 

water levels in October showed declines ranging from 0.35 foot to 

2.14 feet and averaging 1.05 feet, while in the other well the water 

level rose 0.19 foot.

Cleveland County well 1, is in a thin terrace deposit. The 

water level was at its lowest stage for the year in the first half 

of January, but rose rapidly in response to precipitation that totaled 

6.84 inches. The water level continued to rise until March, then 

declined rapidly until May. It rose to the highest recorded 

stage of the year on May 19, the day after 7.95 inches of rain fell 

at the Norman weather station, and then declined with minor 

interruptions through the remainder of the year. The range of 

fluctuations was 6.71 feet, and the annual net change was a rise of 

1.95 feet.

Oklahoma County wells 10, 11, and 12 are in terrace deposits 

from which water is pumped for both municipal and industrial uses, 

and the water levels in them have shown a general dpwnward 

trend since measurements were begun in July 1945. Water levels 

in wells 10 and 12 reached their highest recorded stages in 

February 1946, and in v/ell 11 a peak was reached, in May

1947. Over the period of record, wells 10, 11, and 12 show net declines of 

1.76, 2.69, and 2.80 feet, respectively. In wells 11 and 12 the water 

levels have stabilized in the last 2 years, the range of fluctuations in 

them has narrowed, and in 1949 they even showed a small net annual rise. 

In well 10, the downward trend continued to the end of 1949, although the 

total decline from the beginning of the record is less than in the other 

two wells. Although the general downward trend probably is due to a 

gradual increase in ground-water pumpage, the sharp, short-term peaks and 

valleys shown in the hydrographs for these wells (fig. 15 ) are doubtless 

due to natural re charge -discharge relationships. For the year 1949, wells 

11 and 12 show net rises in water levels of 0.28 and 0.14 foot, respectively, 

but well 10 registers a net decline of 0.59 foot.

TEXAS

By C. R. Pollett

PROGRAM OP WORK

A State-wide investigation of the ground-water resources of Texas has 

been in progress since 1929 in cooperation with the Texas State Board of 

Water Engineers. During 1949 a total of 5,725 measurements was made in 

1,270 wells in 52 counties, and 25 water-stage recorders were in operation.

PRECIPITATION

The average yearly precipitation decreases from east to west; most of 

the area east of the 97th meridian is humid or semihumld, the middle section 

semihumid to semiarid, and the area west of the 101st meridian is semiarid to arid. The average yearly precipitation ranges from 55.95 inches at 

Bon Wier, in Newton County, in the eastern part of the State, to 9.16 

inches at El Paso, In the extreme western part of the State; the yearly 

rainfall at these stations ranges from 38.21 to 81.92 Inches at Bon Wier 

and 2.22 to 21.81 inches at El Paso.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVELS

In the Southern High Plains of Texas most of the wells pumped heavily 

for Irrigation are In the following 19 counties: Armstrong, Bailey, 

Briscoe, Castro, Cochran, Crosby, Deaf Smith, Floyd, Galnes, Hale, Hockley, 

Lamb, Lubbock, Lynn, Martin, Farmer, Randall, Swlsher, and Terry.

Irrigation from wells In this region was started near Plalnview, Hale 

County, in 1911. By 1914 about 140 wells had been drilled in the three 

principal districts -Plainvlew, Hereford, and Muleshoe, From 1919 to 1926, 

rainfall was above average and little Irrigation was practiced. Interest 

In irrigation was revived during several years of low rainfall that began 

In 1927, and, according to the available records, 296 wells*were pumped to 

irrigate about 35,000 acres In 1934. Since that time the development has 

grown rapidly until 1949 when the rainfall was above the average and good 

crops were raised with less Irrigation. Comparatively few new wells were 

112
TEXAS 113

drilled during 1949. In 1948 about 1,250,000 acres were irrigated from 

about 10,500 wells. The yield of the wells ranges from 300 to 2,000 gallons a minute and averages about 750 gallons a minute.

Prom 1937 to 1940, measurements were made at intervals of 1 to 3 

months in several observation wells. It was found, however, that the most 

dependable information regarding net annual losses from or additions to 

storage in the ground-water reservoirs in the pumping districts and adjacent 

territory can be obtained by comparing water-level measurements made each 

year in the late winter or early spring before the start of irrigation.

The water-level decline in the High Plains from the spring of 1948 to 

the spring of 1949 is shown with contours in figure 16 , and from the 

spring of 1938 to the spring of 1949 in figure 17 . The contour lines 

connect points of equal decline. These maps show that the largest declines 

of water level are in four districts: Plainview-Lockney, Lubbock, Muleshoe, 

and Hereford, where wells are closely sr>aced.

The following table gives a summary by counties of the average net 

rise or decline in water level in representative observation wells for the 

period from 1914 to 1938, from 1938 to 1949, from 1943 to 1949, and from 

1948 to 1949.

Dimmlt, Maverick, and Zavala Counties. The irrigation of vegetables 

has been in progress in the district for about 31 years and in more recent 

years, citrus fruits, grain sorghum, cotton, and oats have been irrigated. 

Most of the vegetables are grown as a winter crop; the grain sorghum and 

cotton are grown during the summer; the oats are grown during the fall and 

winter primarily for grazing; and citrus fruits are irrigated mostly during 

the winter and spring. Most of the irrigation wells draw water from the 

Carrizo sand which crops out in western Dimmit County, eastern Maverick 

County, and western and northern Zavala County. In some localities the 

water from irrigation wells is supplemented by surface water from the 

Nueces River and impounding reservoirs on Pendencia, Turkey, and Comanche 

Creeks. Surface water is more economical to pump than ground water, therefore the wells along the river and reservoirs are pumped very little or 

none during the wet years. Pumpage inventories that were made in the 

field indicate that the amount of water withdrawn from wells was as follows: 

30,000 acre-feet in 1929-30 season; 28,000 acre-feet in 1937-38 season; 

and 58,500 acre-foet in 1947-48 season. Prom August 1947 through July 

1940 the rainfall was 16.88 inches; from August 1948 through July 1949 the 

rainfall was 29.32 inches. As a result of the greater rainfall in the 

1948-49 period, pumpage of ground v/ater was reduced.

Water-level measurements have been made during July, August, and 

September, at the close of the season of least pumping when the effect of 

local pumping is at a minimum. The following table shows the yearly measurements in 44 wells. The measurement given is the highest one recorded
TEXAS 117

during the 3-iaonth period if more than one measurement was made. Some of 

the wells are In the heavily pumped areas, whereas others are in the more 

lightly pumped areas, In the outcrop areas, or in areas remote from pumping. The table also shows the rise or decline in the wells between 1930-49i

For a number of years there has been irrigation of citrus fruits and 

winter garden vegetables in Jim Wells and Brooks Counties. Also, considerable development of oil in Brooks, Jim Wells, Duval, and Kleberg Counties 

has taken place since 1940. The rate of drilling oil wells increased 

each year until 1949. A gasoline plant southwest of Premont, a naval air 

base southeast of Kingsville, and a celanese plant north of Kingsville were 

put in operation in 1943. These plants originally used large quantities 

of ground water. In 1945 the naval air base was closed, and in 1948 the 

celanese plant started using surface water for a part of its supply. 

These changes somewhat relieved the demand for ground water locally, but 

In the area as a whole large quantities of ground water are still used for 

irrigation, industrial, municipal, and domestic supplies.

Water levels are usually measured in February each year when the least 

irrigation water is used and when the water levels are generally highest.

Duval Count?. Most of the observation wells are on the outcrop area 

of the sands which are heavily pumped in Jim Wells, Brooks, and Kleberg 

Counties. The deeper wells in the southeastern part of the county show 

greater declines than similar wells in the central and northern parts 

because they are nearer the centers of heavy pumpage In the PremontFalfurrias area. As used here, shallow wells are those less than 100 feet 

deep, whereas deep wells are those over 100 feet deep.

In 20 shallow observation wells the average net decline in water 

levels was 1.24 feet between 1948 and 1949; the water level in two of these 

wells rose 0.15 and 0.74 foot, while in the other 18 wells the water level 

declined from 0.09 foot to 3.81 feet. In 19 shallow observation wells 

the average net decline in water level was 2.71 feet between 1943 and 

1949; the water level in three of these wells rose from 0.18 foot to 2.57 

feet while in the other 16 wells the water level declined from 0.07 foot 

to 11.01 feet.

In 17 deep observation wells the average net decline was 1.65 feet 

between 1943 and 1949; the water level in 3 of these wells rose from 0.02 

to 0.81 foot, 1 well had no change, and in the other 13 wells the water 

level declined from 0.02 foot to 5.70 feet. In 12 deep observation wells 

the average net decline in water level was 2.83 feet between 1943 and 

1949; the water level in 3 of these wells rose from 0.25 foot to 5.94

to 20.42 feet.

Brooks County. In 17 observation wella drawing from one or more 

aanda and ranging In depth from 25 to 1,000 feet, the average net decline 

In water level between 1948 and 1949 waa 2.96 feet; rlaea In water level 

ranging from 0.29 foot to 2.15 feet were recorded In 3 wella and decllnea 

In water level ranging from 0.34 foot to 8.42 feet were recorded In 14 

wella. Between 1943 and 1949 the decllnea In water level in eight wells 

ranged from 1.60 to 42.71 feet and averaged 18.66 feet. Some of the wells 

are in an area remote from heavy pumping.

Jim Wella Count?.--In aeven shallow obaervatlon wella In the outcrop 

area in the weatern part of the county there waa an average decline in 

water level of 2.29 feet from 1948 to 1949? there waa no net change In 

theae wella from 1947 to 1948. The water level in the same wella ahowed 

an average decline of 4.37 feet from 1943 to 1949.

In 19 deep obaervatlon wella, moatly In the Premont-Palfurrlaa area, 

there waa an average net decline in water level of 2.13 feet from 1948 to 

1949; the water level roae from 0.13 foot to 6.18 feet in 4 wella while 

the decline in water level ranged from 0.88 foot to 7.38 feet in the other 

15 wells. Although there was very little decline prior to 1943, the 

average net decline in water level waa 27.07 feet from 1943 to 1949; the 

decllnea ranged from 14.58 to 40.75 feet.

Klebere County. In 19 obaervation wella there waa an average net 

decline in water level of 4.78 feet from 1948 to 1949; in 2 wella the 

water level roae 0.39 and 0.57 foot while in the other 17 wells the decline in water level ranged from 0.45 foot to 13.99 feet. In 24 wella 

there waa an average decline of 35.30 feet from 1943 to 1949, the declinea 

ranged from 15.53 to 58.95 feet. In 22 wella there waa an average decline 

In water level of 53.99 feet between 1932-33 and 1949; the declinea ranged

The Houston-Galveston region includes Harris County west of the San 

Jacinto River, parts of Port Bend, Waller, and Montgomery Counties, and 

Galveston County. The area, excluding Galveston County, is known as the 

Houston district. Large quantities of ground water are pumped for industrial and municipal purposes in the Houston-Pasadena area and for irrigation of rice in the Katy area west of Houston. All these wells draw water 

from sands that crop out from 20 to 50 miles west, northwest, and north of 

Houston. About 290 observation wells in the region are measured at intervals ranging from 1 month to 1 year.

The following table gives the estimated average daily withdrawal of 

ground water in the Houston-Pasadena area and the Katy area. The 1949 

pumpage has not been compiled, but it is estimated to be about the same 

as 1948. Records of pumpago on the outcrop area and the Galveston area 

have not been compiled.

(The rice wells are pumped only during the season that begins about 

May 1 and lasts approximately 130 days, and pumpage in the Houston and 

Pasadena areas, although continuous, is much heavier in summer than it is 

during the remainder cf the year. Therefore, for convenience in compilation and in order that comparisons may be made, total withdrawals in all 

three areas are given as deilly averages for entire year. The city of 

Houston pumpage ir 1946 includes 1,024 acre-fset (534,000,000 gallons) 

sold at the Southwest well field for the irrigation of rice land.)

The withdrawals of ground water in the Houston-Pasadena area from 

1930 to 1936, inclusive, remained fairly constant, averaging about 50 

million gallons a day and a state of approximate equilibrium was reached' 

in the artesian pressure. As a result of an increase in the rate of pumping near Pasadena in 1937 amounting to about 20 million gallons a day, a 

general pressure decline occurred throughout the Houston-Pasadena area in 

1937-38. Small additional increases in pumpage in 1939-41 caused the decline to continue although at a somewhat slower rate. During the 7-year 

period starting with 1942 the pumpage in the Houston-Pasadena area practically doubled, averaging about 146 million gallons a day in 1948 compared 

with 77 million gallons a day in 1941. This resulted in a rate of decline 

in artesian pressure that was greater than at any time during the preceding 

period of record. The total decline between the spring of 1941 and the 

spring of 1949 in Pasadena and eastern Houston averaged about 100 feet. 

Smaller but substantial declines were recorded throughout most of the 

Houston district, the rate of decline in most of the wells being greatest 

between 1946 and 1949. In the spring of 1949 the depths of water in many

temporarily Idle wells ranged from 170 to 210 feet below sea level (about 

220 to 240 feet below the land surface) In the areas of greatest withdrawals. The pumping levels rsnged from about 250 to 340 feet below sea 

level (290 to 380 feet below the land surface) In some of the most 

heavily pumped wells along the Houston Ship Channel. The declines of the 

piezometric surface from March 1941 to March 1949 In the Houston district 

Is shown by contours on figure 18.

In the Katy rice-growing area, on the outcrop of the sands that supply 

much of the water pumped at Houston, the amount of land under pump irrigation totaled 47,600 acres In 1948 compared with 8,000 acres In 1935, a 

six-fold Increase. Expressed as p. dally average, the pumpage amounted to 

about 123 million gallons a day In 1948 as compared to 14 million gallons 

a day In 1935. There has beon a net decline of the water table and 

artesian pressure in this area for several years, but the amount of decline 

is only a fraction of the decline in artesian.head In the Houston-Pasadenr 

area.

The ground-water reservoirs are recharged by precipitation that falls 

on the outcrops of the water-bearing sands northwest, north, and northeast 

of Houston. Periodic measurements of water-table wells in portions of the 

outcrop areas that are more or less remote from areas of large-scale pumpIng show little If any net decline In water levels between 1938 and 1949.

Prior to 1944 there was a persistent drop In water levels in Galvestor 

County as a result of heavy pumping In the Texas City Industrial area and 

in the Alta Loma well field of the city of Galveston. The rate of decline 

decreased from 1944 to 1947, and at Texas City the artesian pressure became 

almost stationary as the cone of depression caused by the pumping became 

flatter and larger each year. Pumpage In 1948 was curtailed appreciably 

as a result of a surface-water supply being made available for Industrial 

uses at Texas City, and water levels In the deeper sands at and near 

Industrial wells recovered about 30 feet. The water levels In the 

Galveston city well field at Alta Loma rose slightly during the latter 

part 1948 and during 1949, but In the northern and northwestern parts of 

Galveston County the water levels continued to decline slowly.
