WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE IN OBSERVATION WELLS 

IN THE UNITED STATES IN 1948

part 5. NORTHWESTERN STATES

INTRODUCTION

By A. N. Sayre and others

The ground-water investigations of the United States Geological Survey 

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

resources of the Nation. They are carried on principally in financial cooperation with States and municipalities, or at the request of other Federal 

agencies. Most of the investigations have to do with the availability of 

usable water supplies, but a few deal with drainage, flood control, construction of waterways and dams, mine drainage, and other problems to which 

principles of ground-water hydrology are pertinent. Water-Supply Paper 

992 lists about 1,800 papers and reports describing ground-water investigations made by the Survey in cooperation with States and municipalities 

through 1945.

Significance of records of water level and artesian pressure

An essential part of the ground-water investigations is the measurement 

of fluctuations of water level and artesian pressure in wells. The rock 

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

water derived from rain and snow is stored to supply-we113 and springs and 

to maintain the flow of streams during periods of fair weather. Water levels 

in wells indicate the stages of these natural reservoirs; they show the extent to which water supplies are 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. Changes of pressure in artesian wella also indicate the rate of 

depletion or replenishment, of artesian supplies.

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

1
WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHWESTERN STATES

continued yearly since. This series of water-supply papers is in a sense 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Scope of present volume

The present volume covers the northwestern States and gives records 

of water level and artesian pressure in about 1,490 observation wells of 

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

Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. Of these wells, 30 are equipped

with automatic water-stage recorders. For some wells not previously ref 

ported complete records of water .level are given. For wells whose previoufr

i

records have been published this volume gives only the current records. IJT 

a complete description of a well haa been published in a previous report, i 

only the well number or ths well number and a brief description are given j 

jji tfoj.o report. Thio report inoludea about 7.650 individual datsrmiiitttl-onti 

of water level and artesian pressure.
INTRODUCTION

Land-surface datum

Before 1943, In Geological Survey reports, the water levels and artesian pressures for some wells were given in feet above or below the measuring points and for other wells in feet above or below sea level or above or 

below various assumed datum planes. In 1943, it was decided that uniform

pressure in observation wells in 1948. The shaded section represents 

the part of the country covered by this volume.

practice should be adopted. Accordingly, a precise datum plane was established approximating the land surface at each well. The water levels and 

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

land-surface datum unless preceded by a plus (+) sign, or otherwise indicated in the descriptive text for each State. When water levels or artesian heads are referred to land-surface datum for the first time, a 

conversion factor is given in the descriptive matter preceding them in 

order to facilitate comparison of the older and newer records.

Network of Federal observation wells

In 1942 and 1943 the Geological Survey established a network of 60 

Federal observation wells. These wells were selected because the fluctuations of water level in them are believed to be typical and represent th«
4 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHWESTERN STATES

fluctuations that occur In the parts of the country In which the wells are 

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

States, Including 300 wells measured regularly In connection with cooperative ground-water Investigations.

Changes In ground-water level In 1948 In the northwestern part of the

United States

In 1948 the precipitation In four of the seven States in the northwestern section of the country was above normal and the water levels in 

many wells in these States rose. In Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming precipitation was below normal. The fluctuations of both water level and artesian 

pressure in wells, however, depend 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 artesian flow. A summary of the changes In groundwater level is given In the chapter for each State.

PROGRAM OP WORK

The observation-well program in Colorado, begun in 1942, wap continued 

in 1948 in cooperation with the Colorado Water Conservation Board and with 

the Colorado Agricultural Experiment Station, Colorado A. and M. College.

During 1948 a report on "Ground water in the Juleaburg area, Colorado, n 

by Thad 0. McLaughlin, was published as Ground-Water Series, Circular 1, of 

the Colorado Water Conservation Board. Field work was completed in Baca 

County and a report on that area is in preparation. A progress report on 

the "Groundrwater resources of the lower South Platte River Valley between 

Hardin, Colorado, and Paxton, Nebraska, 1* by L. J. Bjorklund and J. A. 

Tavelli, waa prepared in 1948. The South Platte project is being conducted 

in cooperation with the Bureau of Reclamation, United States Department of 

Interior, as a part of the Missouri Basin program. Studies were continued 

in 1948 in the Denver artesian basin and in the Grand Junction artesian 

basin in Mesa County and in the irrigated district north of Monte Vista, in 

the San tuis Valley.

Water levels were being measured in-218 wells at the end of 1947. During the year measurements were discontinued in nine wells and measurements 

were begun in three wells. At the end of 1948, therefore, observations were 

being made in 212 wells, and 970 wetted-tape measurements are given below.

The.water levels in 147 wells were measured twice yearly by W. E. Coda; 

3 of the wells were equipped with automatic water-stage recorders; 59 wells, 

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

at monthly intervals by members of the Port Morgan office of the sroun(l 

water branch; 22 wells were measured at monthly intervals by members of tha 

Denver office of the ground water branch; 3 wells were measured monthly by 

engineers of the Denver office of the surface water branch through the 

courtesy of Francis M. Bell, district engineer; and 1 well was observed 

monthly by a local observer.

IDAHO

By R. L. Naoe 

PROGRAM OP WORK

Systematic investigations of the ground-water resources of Idaho were 

continued, in 1948 in cooperation with the Idaho Department of Reclamation. 

Independent investigations by the Geological Survey on special projects for 

the Bureau of Reclamation were also made in the Rathdrura Prairie area of 

Kootenai County, and in the southern part of the Snake River Plain of 

southern Idaho. The investigations include inventories and apecial areal 

studies of geology and ground-water resources, and the development of a 

State-wide network of selected wells in which pariodic observations of 

static water levels and artesian pressure are made.

The network of observation wells was further expanded in 1948 to 

achieve better coverage of important areas in the State. At the end of the 

year observations were being made in 13 of the 44 counties in Idaho. Measurements of observation wells in Ada and Canyon Counties are made by the 

Geological Survey and the Nampa-Meridian Irrigation District, in Kootenai 

County, by the Geological Survey, the Washington Water Power Company, and 

Parragut College, and elsewhere by the Geological Survey and local observers. 

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVBL

In northern Idaho water levels in three wells in Kootenai County were 

8 to 13 feet above the 1947 year-end levels, and reached their highest levels 

of record. These wells are sufficiently distant from Lake Pend Oreille so 

that their water levels are influenced chiefly by regional factors In groundwater recharge in the Rathdrum Prairie, rather than by underground seepage 

from the lake. The gains represent increased underground storage resulting 

from a large excess of precipitation during the year. Two other wells, less 

than a mile from Lake Pend Oreille, are strongly influenced by the stage of 

the lake.

20
IDAHO 21

One nonflowlng artesian well In Latah County continued the decline 

noted during 1947, and reached its lowest level of record. A shallow watertable well in Latah County, however, gained slightly in 1948, probably as 

a result of high local precipitation.

In a single observation well in Boise County, the water level had not 

entirely recovered from the record low reached in August 1947, but the 1948 

year-end level was slightly above that for 1947.

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

in a heavily irrigated area where the effects of local precipitation on 

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. Pour of the nine 

wells for which long-term records are available reached new record high 

water levels and were 1 to 2 feet above the 1947 year-end levels. Total 

rainfall in the area was somewhat below normal but substantially greater 

than during 1947. The increased precipitation doubtless produced a small 

net gain in underground storage. This, added to net gains in 1947 and the 

effects of heavy winter precipitation near the end of 1948, will doubtless 

aggravate drainage problems in the Boise Valley in 1949.

The Raft River area, in Cassia County, is represented by several wells. 

For most of these the available record is too short to permit much interpretation. Two of the wells, for which long-term records are available, 

were somewhat above their average levels of record at the end of the year. 

Both surface- and ground-water supplies in the Raft River Valley are relatively small. Recently new developments have increased the draft on underground supplies and the effects of further development on underground storage require close observation.

The single observation well in Bonneville County showed a net rise in 

the water table of 0.8 foot in 1948, reflecting a small increase in rainfall.

Of 21 flowing and nonflowing wells in the Malad Valley, in Oneida 

County, 6 show net rises of 0.2 foot to 7.0 feet in water levels during the 

year; for 2 wells year-end water levels are not available for comparison; 

the remaining 13 wells show net declines of- 0.4 foot to 7.0 feet. Precipitation In the area was somewhat below normal and below the 1947 total.
22 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHWESTERN STATES

The range of water-level fluctuations during the year was unusual, pi May

three nonflowlng wells reached their highest levels In 6 to 8 years of 

record; three nonflowing and eight flowing wells dropped to new low record 

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, and probably lowered recharge as a 

result of deficient rainfall. The effects of further ground-water development* on permanent underground storage in the Malad Valley require continued 

observation.

Water-level fluctuations during 1948 in observation wells with 6 

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

The total number of wells measured in Idaho in 1948 was 81> Ada 7, 

Blaine 8, Boise 1, Bonneville 1, Canyon 3, Cassia 11, Elwore 1, Gem 1, 

Jerome 1, Kootenai 11, Latah 2, Klnidoka 5, and Oneida 29.

The year 1948 in Idaho averaged above normal in precipitation. All 

northern division stations, and those in the more elevated portions of the 

southwestern division, received precipitation which exceeded the average of 

all years of record; in several cases the annual total was 150 percent or 

more of normal. The few stations that showed subnormal annual precipitation totals were all in the southern portions of the State and mostly in 

semi-arid regions. Precipitation was above normal in the northern division 

from January through August. October was the only subnormal month in all 

divisions, and the last two months of the year brought more than normal 

precipitation to all areas.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

Idaho well numbers Indicate the locations of wells within the official 

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

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 the ftfai well recorded in-the MKiS«i sec. 34, T. 7 S., R. 2 E.

MONTANA

By F- A. Swenson, H- W. Lorenz, and A- E. Torrey 

PROGRAM OP WORK

During 1948 the periodic measurements of the water level in observation 

wells in Montana were continued in connection with ground-water studies being made as part of the investigational program of the Missouri River Basin 

Development Plan. The general observation-well program in Montana consists 

of a skeleton network of 31 wells located to give a State-wide coverage. 

Most of these wells were established during June and early July 1947, but 

the network also includes a few wells established earlier. A total of 228 

measurements was made of the water level in these 31 wells during 1948 

under the immediate direction of A. H- Tuttle, district engineer, surface 

water branch.

In connection with general ground-water studies on the proposed Lower 

Marias Irrigation Project in Hill and Chouteau Counties, 22 observation 

wells were established during 1945 and 1946. A total of 164 measurements 

was made of the water level in 19 of these wells during 1948 under the 

immediate direction of T. R. Smith,, engineer, United States Department of 

the Interior, Bureau of Reclamation.

In 1946 and 1947 a total of 37 observation wells was established in 

Roosevelt, Valley, and Sheridan Counties in connection with general groundwater studies being made of the proposed Missouri-Souris Irrigation Project. 

A total of 389 measurements was made of the water level in these wells during 1948 under the immediate direction of the engineer in charge of the 

Wolf Point office of the Bureau of Reclamation.

During 1948 general geologic and ground-water studies were started in 

Helena Valley, in Lewis and Clark County, and along the Yellowstone River 

Valley, in Ouster, Prairie, and Dawson Counties. In connection with the 

study in Helena Valley, 121 observation wells were established and measured 

at monthly intervals. A total of 961 measurements was made of the water 

level in these wells in 1948. A total of 431 measurements was made of the

38
MONTANA 39

water level In the 94 observation wells in the Yellowatone River Valley 

during 1948. Records of these 215 wells appear for the first time in this 

report.

The water-level observation program in the valley and delta area between Kalispell and Plathead lake, in Plathead County, has been carried 

on by the Bureau of Reclamation In cooperation with the Geological Survey. 

Acknowledgment is here made to C. S. Hazen, Project Planning Office of the 

Bureau of Reclamation at Kallspell, for furnishing the water-level measurements made in Plathead County. 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 regulation of the altitude of 

the water surface of Flathead Lake and Flathead River on the water table 

under about 25 square miles of area. Flathead lake has been subject to 

regulation by Kerr Dam since April 1938. The information on changes of 

ground-water levels is of prime importance to those engaged in agriculture 

and to those planning construction projects in the area- The results of

a study of the records for 1928 to 1937, inclusive, are contained in a

report by Cady. A later report by McDonald' summarizes some of the effects

of storage in Flathead Lake. Between October 1947 and October 1948, 437 

measurements were made of the water level in 35 of the original 47 observation wells, the others having been destroyed. Records of the measurements 

made after October 1948 were unavailable when this report was prepared. 

The locations and descriptions of the wells in Flathead County are published 

in Water-Supply Papers 777 and 990.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

For the purpose of discussing changes in water level in observation 

wells, the State has been arbitrarily subdivided into nine areas as shown 

in figure 2.

The part of Montana west of the Continental Divide Is a large area of 

mountainous country with fertile irrigated valley lands. Considerable parto 

of this area are covered by timber. It generally has milder winters, cooler 

summers, and more frequent, abundant, and evenly distributed precipitation 

than other parts of the State. Total precipitation ranges from about 45

inches In the higher mountain areas to about 12 Inches in the valleys which 

lie In the rainshadow of mountain ranges. Snow cover and precipitation 

were higher than normal during the spring and early summer of 1948. This 

resulted In disastrous floods and higher than normal water levels in observation wells. The excessive precipitation during the spring was followed 

by below-normal precipitation during the summer and fall, and water levels 

In some wells were as much as 3 feet lower at the end of 1948 than they had 

been during 1947.
MONTANA 41

North-central Montana lies north of the Missouri River between Port 

Peck and the Rocky Mountains and includes the drainage basin of the Teton 

River. It is an area of great plains, with high mountains in the western 

part and with several small mountain ranges within the area. This area 

has a characteristic continental-type climate with great ranges in temperature and scanty precipitation. Average annual precipitation is 12 to 

14 inches over most of this area. During the spring and summer months of 

1948, the water level in observation wells in Glacier, Toole, Teton, and 

Phillips Counties, and in some wells in Valley and Hill Counties, were 

higher than during 1947 but by later 1948 the water level in most wells 

was about normal. The water level in all of the shallow observption wells 

in Chouteau and most of the observation wells in Hill County was considerably lower than normal during the spring and summer of 1948 and, in 

some of the wells, the water level remained lower than normal for the 

entire year.

Northeastern Montana lies north of the Missouri River and east of 

Port Peck. It is p rolling upland plain chiefly devoted to grazing and 

dry land wheat raising. This section of the State has a continental-type 

climate with an average rainfall of 12 to 14 inches. During 1948 the 

water level in observation wells in this part of the State was about the 

same or somewhat higher than during 1946 and 1947.

East-central Montana lie? south of the Missouri River, east of the 

Yusselshell drainage, and north of a line through Wiles City. It is a 

hilly section'mainly used for stock-grazing purposes, except for irrigated 

and cultivated lands along the main stream valleys. Annual precipitation 

ranges from about 13 to 15 inches. Prior to 1948 water-level measurements 

were made in only 2 wells within this area and the records are too scanty 

for comparisons to be made. During 1948 a total of 94 observation wells 

was selected along the Yellowstone River valley in this area.
42 WATER LEVILS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHWESTERN STATES

Central Montana lisa south of the Missouri River and.includes the entire drainage basin of the Muaselahell River* It is a rolling to mountainous area chiefly devoted to grazing but with considerable land devoted to 

cultivated crops* Annual precipitation rangea from about 12 to IS inches, 

the heavier precipitation generally falling at the higher altitudes. The 

water level in only one observation well ia being measured in this area and 

although records are too scanty to establish any definite trend the water 

level in this well was consistently »ore than 1 foot lower during 1948 than 

during 1947.

The Upper Missouri section of Montana includes all drainage of the 

Missouri River between Fort Benton and Three Porks. It is a rough mountainous area devoted te mining, fraging, and timber, with considerable dry land 

and irrigation farming on the valley bottoms an.d the more level land. 

Average annual precipitation ranges from about 12 to 20 inches, the heavier 

precipitation falling mainly on higher mountain lands. The water in two 

observation wells within thia section of the State has been measured periodically since 1947 but no definite trends can be noted within this short 

period of record. Both wells ape on irrigated lands and the water-level 

fluctuations are closely related to irrigation. During 1948, 121 new observation wells were established in connection with geologic and hydrologlc 

studies being made in Helena Valley,

Southwestern Montana Includes all of the drainage basins of the Jefferson, Madison, and Qallatirj Rivers, which eonverge at Three Porks to form 

the Missouri River, it Is a rough, mountainous, timbered area'with irrigated 

farms on valley lands. The average annual precipitation ranges from about 

10 to 20 Inches, the greater precipitation generally occurring at the higher 

altitudes. The water level In three obatrvation wells has been measured 

periodically In this area since 1947 but the period of record is too short 

for determination of trends, AH of the observation wells are in irrigated 

areas and water-level fluctuations are definitely influenced by irrigation. 

The well near Dlllon Is notable for its extreme range in water-level flue- , 

tuation, showing a seasonal change of more than 21 feet. This well was dug

in very permeable gravels which are heavily irrigated during the relatively 

short irrigation season; during the remainder of the year the water drains 

away.

South-central Montana includes all of the Yellowstone River drainage 

basin above the mouth of the Big Horn River, and consists of rugged 

mountainous country and fertile Irrigated lands along all major streams. 

Average annual precipitation ranges from 10 to 20 Inches, the greater precipitation generally occurring at the higher altitudes. The water level in 

two observation wells, both in irrigated areas, is being measured periodically in this area. Both wells had a definitely lower water level during 

the fall and winter of 1948 than during the same period In 1947.

Southeastern Montana includes the drainage basin of the Big Horn River 

and lies south of a line through Miles City. It is a rough hilly area 

chiefly devoted to grazing. Lands along the principal stream valleys are 

irrigated and some dry land crops are raised. The average annual precipitation ranges from 12 to 16 inches. The water level in five observation 

wells is periodically measured in this area but the period of record is not 

long enough for trends of water-level fluctuations to be determined. The 

water level In four of the wells was essentially the same in 1948 as in 

1947. The water level In the observation well at Alzada, near the Wyoming 

State line, was about 2 feet lower during the fall of 1948 than it was 

during 1947.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

Each well for which water-level measurements appear in this report has 

been assigned a number based on its location within the Bureau of land 

Management surveys of the area* The component parts of a well number are; 

A capital letter Indicating the quadrant of the principal meridian and baseline system; a township number; a range number; a section number; and two 

or more lower case letters which indicate the location of the well within 

the section. The quadrants into which the State is divided by the principal 

meridian and base line are designated A, B, C, and D beginning in the northeast quadrant and continuing in a counter-clockwise direction. The lower 

case letters designate, respectively, the quarter section, the quarterquarter section, the 10-acre tract, and the 2-J-acre tract; they are assigned 

In the same manner as the capital letters. Most well numbers indicate a

are indicated only when two or more wells are in the same quarter-quarter 

section. In certain instances, two or more wells in the same quarterquarter section are distinguished simply by the addition of a serial numberThe we11-numbering system is illustrated in figure 3.

The wells in Plathead County, which formerly were identified by serial 

numbers, have been renumbered according to the coordinate location system.

Water 

level

30.93
MONTANA, FLATHEAD COUNTY 53

Plathead County

Water levels in observation wells in the valley and delta area between 

Kaliape11 and.Plathead Lake were higher in 1948 than at any time during the 

period of record as the result of heavy precipitation and high runoff in 

this area. Much of the ground-water recharge doubtless came from percolation downward but high stages of the river and Plathead Lake prevented the 

ground-water discharge which takes place into these bodies of surface water 

when they are at lower levels.

Although water-level measurements have been made at different times of 

the month and under varying conditions, it is believed that some generalizations can be drawn regarding the fluctuations of water level over the 

years. The average water level in 35 wells during 1948 was about 2.5 feet 

higher than the average water level in 47 wells in 1929. The greatest 

differences between water levels recorded in 1929 and 1948 were in the fall 

and winter months, and it seems a valid assumption that this condition is 

mainly the result of regulation of Plathead Lake by the Kerr Dam. Water 

levels, before lake regulation, were ordinarily higher during the spring 

months; thus, the net change in spring water levels is not as great as the 

net change in fall water levels.

When the average monthly depth to water of the 35 wells in 1948 is 

compared with the average depth to water in 39 wells in 1942 it is found 

that the water level was about 2.3 feet higher in 1948 than in 1942. As 

the Kerr Dam was in operation both years, the differences show no marked 

relation to the seasons. The greatest difference is shown during the month 

of June when the average water level in wells was about 2.8 feet higher in 

1948 than in 1942. The measurement on June 7, 1948, followed the peak 

discharge of the Plathead River, which occurred on Hay 23; this accounts to 

some extent for the large rise in water level.

The average water level in the 35 wells was about 0.7 foot higher in 

1948 than in 1947. This rise in water level is entirely the result of the 

natural conditions described above, as no changes were made in the regulated 

level of Plathead Lake. The lake level was high during 1948, but this was 

the result of excessive runoff and was not due to regulation.

In the following tabulation, the number in parentheses is the well 

number under which water-level measurements for earlier years were published.

OREGON

By P. A. WatktaS

PROGRAM OF

The water-level program in Oregon was continued during 1948 in cooperation with the Oregon State Engineer. Throughout the year measurements 

were made at 66 wells. Descriptions of eight wells appear for the first 

time in this report; three wells were discontinued. Altogether, 522 

measurements of water level or pressure head were made during the year; alco 

included in this report are 9 measurements made prior to 1948. Two float 

gages were in operation throughout the year; in a third well a local obser*- 

ver made weekly tape measurements. and at two other wells the owners made 

periodic readings of pressure head either with a pressure gage or^water 

manometer tube.

During the year a preliminary report on ground-water occurrence near 

Beaverton, Washington County, was completed and released In addition, 

field work was carried on in Lake County, and field work continued on a 

ground-water inventory of the Walla Walla River Basin, in Umatilla County.

PRECIPITATION

The first of the two following tables shows average monthly and 

seasonal distribution of precipitation,, in inches and in percentage of the 

whole, at two representative stations for 50 years of record. It also 

shows rainfall in percentage of the average for the water-year ending 

September 30, 1948. The second table shows, by provinces, the precipitation at 18 representative stations, in inches, and relative wetness, in 

percentage of the 50-year average, for the water-year ending September 30, 

1948. Precipitation was above average throughout the State, ranging from 

105.8 percent of normal at Newport, Lincoln County, to 169.0 percent at 

TJmatilla, TJmatilla County. Average for the State was 129.9 percent of

normal. Snowfall was above average over most of the State. These data

79 

are taken from U. S. Weather Bureau records.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

Willamette Valley subprovinee

Four rounds of water-level measurements were made In 13 wells and 

three rounds In 2 wells. In well IN/3-34N1 (US 107), at Portland, 11 

measurements were made. This well taps confined water in alluvium. 

In well 15/4W-32M1, at Junction City, 47 tape measurements were made by a
OREGON Cl

local observer. In addition, the descriptions of three wells appear in 

this report for the first time. Altogether, 161 measurements of water level 

were made in 19 wells in 1948.

In 14 wells for which comparable measurements were available, the 

September-end water levels were 0.42 foot higher in 1948 than in 1947.

Wells in the Willamette Valley subprovince are listed under Benton, 

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

Deschutes River subprovince 

Prineville area

In t'ae Prineville area three rounds of water-level measurements were 

made Jn five wells and one well was discontinued. Altogether, 23 measurements of water level or pressure head were made in 1948. One pressure 

gage and one water manometer tube were in use throughout the year.

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

Pleistocene (?) artesian aquifer in an area of heavy pumping, show a rise 

of 1.80 feet while the other, which is about 3.5 miles northwest of Prineville and out of the area of heavy pumping, shows a rise of 8.45 feet over 

the year-end level of 1947.

Records for observation wells in the Prineville area are listed under 

Crook County.

The Dalles area

Rounds of water-level measurements were made in four wells in The 

Dalles area. These are new observation wells and their descriptions appear 

in this report for the first time along with seven measurements of water 

level made in 1948 and eight made prior to 1948. In the one well for 

which comparable measurements were available, the year-end water level in 

1948 was 25.67 feet above the year-end level of 1947, a rise which may have 

resulted from decreased pumpage.

Wells in The Dalles area are listed under Wasco County. 

Summer Lake subprovince

In the Fort Rock Valley three rounds of measurements were made in six 

wells, one well was discontinued, another was added to replace it and two 

rounds were made on the new well. In one well in the Chewaucan River Valley three rounds of measurements were made in 1948. Water levels in October 1948 were, on the average, 0.35 foot lower than in October 1947, Records for these wells are listed under Lake County.
82 JATER LEVELS AMD ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHWESTERN STATES

Walla Walla subprovince

In the Vfalla 'Valla Basin 8 rounds of water-level measurements were 

made in 15 wells by W. C. Mason, local watermaster. In addition, a float 

gage was maintained throughout the year in one well and read at biweekly 

intervals by the owner. In all, 212 measurements of water level were made 

in 1948.

In the 15 wells, the September 1948 levels were, on the average, 

2.06 feet above the September 1947 levels. In well 6N/35-36H1 the highest 

level of the year occurred in July 1.82 feet above the high of 1947 which 

occurred in May. 1Ve lls in the TCalla Walla Basin are listed under Umatilla 

County.

Harney 3asin subprovince

Three rounds of water-level measurements were made on eight wells and 

two rounds on one well in 1948. A local observer took weekly readings at 

one well equipped with a float gage. Altogether, 84 measurements of water 

level were made in 1948. At the float-gage well, 23/31-33E1, the Septemberend water level of 1948 was 0.05 foot above the September-end water level 

of 1947, but the high water level of 1948 in June was 0.50 foot below 

the high level of 1947, which also occurred in June. On the average,, the 

water levels of October 1948 were slightly above those of October 1947. 

Records for these wells are listed under Harney County. 

Grande Ronde subprovince

In the Grande Ronde subprovince observation wells are in both the 

Baker (Powder River) and the Grande Ronde valleys. Two rounds of waterlevel measurements were made on three wells in the Baker Valley and one well 

was temporarily discontinued. Water levels in the three wells were higher 

in July 1948 than in October 1947. Two rounds of water levels were also 

made on three wells in the Grande Ronde Valley. At these three wells the 

water levels were slightly higher in July 1948 than in October 1947. Records for wells in these two valleys are listed under Baker and Union 

Counties.

WELL DESCRIPTIONS AND WATER-LEVEL MEASUREMENTS

The following records of water levels in observation wells are given 

by counties in alphabetical sequence, with the names of the respective 

ground-water subprovlnces indicated after each county name. Under each

By W. B. Nelson and R. G. Butler 

PROGRAM OP WORK

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

Engineer, have been In progress since 1935, These Investigations Include 

two Interrelated programs which may be designated as (1) a yearly Statewide Inventory of ground-water storage based on periodic measurements and 

oil continuous records of water-level fluctuations In selected wells In 

each of the 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 maximum 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 

from observation of Its stages. Records of water-level fluctuations In 

wells are useful, also, In determining 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. Longperiod records are especially valuable In the detailed studies of the source, 

movement, and disposal of ground fater In Individual basins. The Statewide program thus serves, not only as a yearly Inventory of ground-water 

storage, but also aa a source of basic data for subsequent detailed studies.

The State-wide Inventory now includes records of measurements In 42 

ground-water areas, which Include most 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 

947834 O 51 7 91
92 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1948, NORTHWESTERN STATES

gages which are serviced once a week. During 1948 a total of 1,925 measurements was made In 574 wells, and 26 water-stage and pressure recorders 

were maintained. The data thus collected are summarized in the following 

pages.

Measurements of water levels were made by the Salt Lake City Corporation In Salt Lake County and by the Bureau of Reclamation In Wasatch 

County.

During the year, Technical Publication No. 5 was included in the Twenty-sixth Biennial Report of the Utah State Engineer that was published 

early in 1949. The title of this report Is: Ground Water In the East 

Shore Area, Utah - Part I, Bountiful District, Davis County, by H. E. Thomas 

and W. B. Nelson. Detailed Investigations were made In Escalante Valley, 

Sanpete Valley, Ashley Valley, Juab Valley, and the Weber Delta df the East 

Shore Area.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

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

These are the Southwestern Bolson, the Montana-Arizona plateau, and the 

Northern Rocky Mountains province , which are approximately coextensive 

with the Utah portions of the Basin and Range, the Colorado Plateau, and

the Middle Rocky Mountains physiographic provinces as outlined by FermeP 

man» The characteristics peculiar to each of these ground-water provinces

were described In an earlier report. 3 Each of the three province* 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 differ considerably from the changes in individual wells in the 

area. A summary of the water levels for the period 1935-45 is given in an 

earlier report,4

Average water-level changes during 1948 In groups of observation wells 

In areas within the Southwestern Bolson province ranged from -8.9 to -*-2.1 

feet. Water levels In the Plowell area of Mlllard County continued to 

rise and attained the highest levels recorded at any time since 1929, but 

In most of the areas water levels declined slightly. Precipitation over 

the larger part of the Utah portion of the province was from 1 to 3 Inches 

less than normal. Dev01opment of ground water In Escalante Valley, In Iron 

and Washington Counties, continued on a large scale during the year from 

applications filed with the State Knglneer prior to the closing of the area 

to new applications In 1946 by his office.

All but three of the areas under observation In the Montana-Arizona 

Plateau, province showed a decline In water levels during 1948. Precipitation was less than normal at most Weather Bureau stations In the area.

Water levels declined slightly In most of the observation wells In 

the No.rthern Rocky Mountains province. Precipitation at Weather Bureau 

stations In the area In general was less than normal.

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 coordinate 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 numbers refer to wells In existence when the State groundwater law went Into effect in March 1935, and application numbers refer to 

wells developed subsequently. The table includes data concerning depth, 

diameter, measuring point, and similar information concerning new ob.serva-' 

tion wells not published previously. All other wells have been listed in 

Water-Supply Paper 1100. The following list shows for each well the location or coordinate number; the State claim or application number; the name 

of the ownerj and the years for which records of measurements are available. 

Thereafter the dates of water-level measurements in 1948 are listed. All 

measurements listed are below land-surface datum unless otherwise indicated. 

Wells that were discharging by artesian flow when visited were closed 10

minutes before taking the artesian pressure.

WASHINGTON

By P. A. Watklns 

PROGRAM. OF WORK

The program of periodic measurements of water levels In observation 

wells In the State of Washington was continued In 1948 on the State-wide 

net of observation wells and also In connection with the several projects 

Involved In a general Inventory of the water resources of the State. These 

projects were continued In cooperation with the Washington State Department of Conservation and Development, Walla Walla County, and the city of 

Tacoma.

Field work was continued on ground-water Inventories In Walla Walla 

Oounty and Whatcom County and was completed in the Wenas Creek Valley. 

The work In Whatcom County and the Wenas Creek Valley was carried on In 

cooperation with the Washington State Department of Conservation and Development, and the Walla Walla work Is In cooperation with Walla Walla 

County, as well as the State agency. In addition, four reports on ground 

water were completed and released to the open file; these dealt with the 

Columbia Basin Project area, the Kennewlck area, the Rathdrum PralrleSpokane Valley area, and Snohomlsh County.

During the year 1,075 measurements were made In 101 wells distributed 

unevenly over 19 of the 39 counties In the State. One automatic waterstage recorder and 15 nonrecordlng float gages were operated throughout 

the year. Descriptions of two wells In Benton County are given In this re* 

port for the first time. More detailed Information Is given In the following table.

a In addition, 2 measurements were made in a water-table lake.

Areas of intensive investigation 

Tacoma area, Puget Sound subprovince

The program of water-level measurements was continued during 1948 in 

cooperation with the city of Tacoma, although the number of wells was reduced after June 1948. Rounds of water-level measurements were made on 

35 wells, 2 rounds were made covering 5 wells, 1 round was made covering 16 

wells, and, in addition, 8 rounds were made on 8 municipal wells by the 

city of Tacoma Water Division. Three wells equipped with float gages were 

read at intervals varying from weekly to semimonthly and another well was 

measured with a tape at weekly intervals. An automatic water-stage recorder 

was operated on one well throughout the year.

Ground-water levels in the Tacoma area were higher in September 1948 

than they were in September 1947. In four selected wells there was an 

average rise of 0.62 foot.

Snohomish County, Puget Sound subprovince

The program of water-level measurements in observation wells was continued in 1948. Three rounds of measurements were made on four wells and 

two rounds on two wells, one well was discontinued. In addition, a report 

on ground water in Snohomish County was completed for release to the open 

file.
152 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 194&, NORTHWESTERN STATES

Ground-water levels in Snohomiah County were generally higher in September 1948 than they were in August 1947; wella tapping aub-till aand and 

gravela, which water level commonly ahowa long-time ground-water atorage 

trenda, were on the average 0.9 foot higher, while one well with confined 

water from aub-till aand ahowa a rise of 1.10 feet- A well tapping water 

perched in the Vaahon till waa 1.74 feet higher and one getting ita water 

from outwaah aanda and gravela waa 0.17 foot higher.

Columbia Baain, Columbia Plateau province

The water-level program in the Columbia Baain waa continued in 1948. 

Pour rounda of meaaurementa were made on 18 wella, 2 wella were discontinued, 

and at 1 well, equipped with a float gage, weekly readinga of water level 

were made by a local observer. The obaervation wella for thia area are 

liated under Adama, Franklin, and Grant Countiea.

Ground-water levela in six aelected wella, which tap shallow aand and 

gravel, ahow an average riae of 3.06 feet, and water levela in five wella, 

which tap the deeper baaalt, ahow an average riae of 1.19 feet. 

Palouae River area, Columbia Plateau province

The obaervation-well program in Whitman County in 1948 conaisted of 

four rounda of water-level meaaurementa on three wella, three rounds on three 

wella, and two rounda on one well.

Water levela in two anallow water-table wella in October 1948 ahow an 

average riae of 1.66 feet over October 1947. Water levela in the arteaian 

wella at Pullman continued their downward trend ahowing an average decline 

of 1.46 feet. The arteaian well at Steptoe ahowed a riae of 5.57 feet. 

Spokane Valley, Northern Rocky Mountains province

The program of water-level meaaurementa in the Spokane Valley included 

float gagea maintained in aeven wella with daily to weekly readings by local 

observers and tape measurements made by representatives of the Geological 

Survey or the Washington Water Power Company.

Water levels in 8 selected wells in the area of effluent ground water 

that sustains the low flow of the Spokane River show an average rise of 0.15 

foot, and in 4 wells in the upstream area where the river is influent show 

an average rise of 2.71 feet.

PRECIPITATION

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

1948, and in percentage of the 50-year average at 13 representative stations 

in the State. Precipitation was above normal throughout the State, ranging from 111.5 percent at Aberdeen, Grays Harbor County, to 223.7 percent 

at Kennewick, Benton County. Snowfall also was above normal over most of 

the State.

By Prank Visher 

PROGRAM OP *ORK

Periodic measurements of water level in observation wells in Wyoming 

were continued in 1948 in cooperation with the Wyoming State Kngineer and 

the city of Cheyenne through the Wyoming State Planning and Water-Conservation Board.

At the beginning of 1948, 124 wells were being measured and at the end 

of the year 116 wells were being measured. During the year, 192 water-level 

measurements were made. The key observation wells, as described in WaterSupply Paper 1075, page 172, were measured monthly and the other wells less 

frequently.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

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

is given in Water-Supply Paper 990, pages 246-251. In the Cheyenne area 

measurements were made in February, October and November. In the Cheyenne 

well field water levels declined 0.5 foot due to withdrawals of ground 

water for municipal use by the city of Cheyenne. This decline is not serious. 

It represents a flattening of a curve of water-level decline since pumpage 

by the city began in 1941. In the Egbert-Pine Bluffs-Carpenter area measurements were made in October and November. There was a cumulative rise in 

water levels of 1.0 foot. Throughout the year water levels fluctuated in 

response to seasonal precipitation and irrigation. Precipitation averaged 

less than normal. The observation wells in Crook, Goshen, Natrona, and 

Sublette Counties penetrate alluvial deposits near the banks of streams. 

The water levels in them fluctuated in response to variations in the stages 

pf the streams and to seasonal differences in precipitation.
