INTRODUCTION 

By A. N. Sayre and others

Significance of records of water level and artesian pressure 

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

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

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

weather. Water levels in wells register the stages of these natural reservoirs; they show the extent to which water supplies are depleted by drought 

or by heavy pumping, whether for public waterworks, irrigation, or industrial uses, and the extent to which they are replenished in seasons of 

abundant rainfall or melting snow. The changes in pressure recorded on 

flowing wells indicate depletion or replenishment of the artesian reservoirs.

Annual publication of records by Geological Survey 

The regular publication of records of water level and artesian pressure in the United States was begun by the Geological Survey in 1935 and 

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

covered.

Scope of present volume

The present volume covers the northeastern States and gives records of 

water level and artesian pressure In about 1,230 observation wells of the 

Geological Survey and cooperating a'gencles In Connecticut, Delaware, Indiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, 

Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Of these wells, 291 are 

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

previous records have been published this volume gives only the current 

records. If a complete description of a well has been published In a previous report, only the well number or the well number and a brief Identifying description are given In this report. The numbers In parentheses 

Immediately following a well number are those of the water-supply papers 

In which earlier records of that well are given and the pages on which they 

appear. An asterisk Indicates that a description of the well Is given In 

the paper whose number is so marked. This report Includes about 41,055 

Individual determinations of water level and artesian pressure.

Land-surface datum

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

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

to adopt a standard procedure In expressing water levels and artesian heads
INTRODUCTION

until after a period of trial with datum planes of different kinds. In 1943, 

however, it was decided that uniform practice should be adopted. Accordingly, 

preciae datum planes were established approximating the land surface at each 

well. The water levels and artesian heads for all wells listed in this report are given in reference to land-surface datum planes, except for the

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

covered by the six water-supply papers on water levels and artesian pressure in observation wells in 1947. The shaded section represents the 

part of the country covered by this volume.

following which are given in feet above or below mean sea level: New Haven 

County, Conn., New Jersey (both land-surface datum and mean sea level), and 

Long Island, New York. If the water levels or artesian heads are referred 

to land-surface datum for the first time, a conversion factor is given in 

the descriptive matter preceding them in order to facilitate comparison of 

the older and newer records. Wherever the conversion factor is given in 

earlier reports it is not repeated in this report. New data as to the positions of the measuring point and of the bench marks, in feet above or below 

land-surface datum planes, will be published in succeeding annual reports.

Network of key observation wells

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

ground-water conditions over the country. These wells were selected because the fluctuations of water level in them are believed to be typical 

and they represent the general fluctuations that occur in the parts of the 

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

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

1943; the other 100 were selected from wells measured regularly in connection with cooperative ground-water investigations. The coverage of the 

country is still far from adequate, and it IB expected that some wells not 

now included will be added to the network from time to time.

Changes in ground-water level in 1947 in the northeastern part of the

United States

The average precipitation in 7 of the 13 States in the northeastern 

section of the country was below normal, but it was normal or above in the 

other 6 States. The fluctuations of both water level and artesian pressure 

in wells depend, however, on many factors besides the amount of precipitation. In certain of the observation wells there are fluctuations caused 

by differences in the rate of pumping or artesian flow from other wells in 

the area, but most of the observation wells are not noticeably affected by 

pumping or artesian flow. A summary of the changes in ground-water level 

is given in the chapter for each State.

PROGRAM OF WORK

The investigation of ground-water conditions in Connecticut was continued during 1947 in cooperation with the Connecticut State Water Commission. The main purpose of the investigation is the systematic collection 

of detailed information as to the occurrence and availability of the 

ground-water resources of Connecticut. As a part of this program, periodic 

measurements of water level are made in a number of observation, wells, 

scattered throughout the State, to reveal the seasonal fluctuation and the 

general trend of ground-water levels. During 1947, observations were con' 

tinued at monthly intervals in 40 wells, and at more frequent intervals 

in 2 other wells. Of the total, measurements of water level were made in 

13 wells in and adjacent to heavily pumped areas in New Haven, in 11 wells 

in Waterbury, and in a network of 18 wells scattered elsewhere throughout 

the State. In all, approximately 600 individual measurements were obtained. 

The locations of wells included in the program in 1947 are shown on figure 

2, an index map of Connecticut. The locations of the wells in New Haven 

are shown on a map of that city published on page 7 of Water-Supply Paper 

986. Well locations in Waterbury are shown on the map on page 9 of WaterSupply Paper 1016.

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

collected at the beginning of the year from 23 ground-water pumping plants 

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

show the trend of salt-water encroachment. In Waterbury, bimonthly samples 

of ground water were collected from five pumping plants for determination 

of sulfate content, resulting from in-flow of contaminated water from the 

Naugatuok River.

PRECIPITATION

The average annual precipitation for Connecticut for 1947, aa recorded 

at 20 stations of the United States Weather Bureau, was 43.92 inches, or 

2.4 inches below the average for the period of record. Precipitation for 

the year was below normal at most stations. The first 3 months of 1947 

were exceedingly mild with precipitation below normal over most of the 

State. Precipitation was above normal in April, May, June, and July but 

was followed by an extended dry period which lasted through October and 

reached near-drought conditions, producing, a great fire hazard in woodland 

areas. Excessive precipitation in November took the form of two severe 

storms which lashed the coastal areas with gales, high tides and heavy 

surf. December produced the outstanding weather event of the year with 

a near-record snowfall, ranging from 12.6 to 36.5 inches, occurring over 

most of the State at the close of the month. Snow cover was greatest in 

the northwestern portion of the State and was heavy along the southwestern 

coastal areas, becoming less deep in an easterly direction. 

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

Water levels in observation wells in Connecticut were slightly below 

normal by the beginning of 1947. Below-normal precipitation during the 

first 3 months of the year caused a further decline in water levels and 

thereby delayed the beginning of the normal seasonal rise from the middle 

of December 1946 to the middle of February 1947. Increased rainfall, beginning in April, together with the addition of large amounts of melt water 

from the heavy snow cover caused water levels to rise rapidly, the highest 

levels for the year generally being recorded at the end of April and May. 

The period June through October saw a gradual lowering of the water table 

throughout the State, largely due to the deficiency in precipitation. Low 

stages for the year were recorded at the encd pf the dry spell in October. 

Declines were checked by above-normal precipitation in November and water 

levels in most wells continued to rise for the remainder of 1947, reaching 

about the normal stage by the end of the year.

The following tables summarize the data pertaining to ground-water 

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

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

summarized separately.

a Measurements discontinued Nov. 26, 1947.

The summary tables show that of the 42 wells for which records of 

water level are available, the highest observed water levels for the 

period of record occurred during 1947 In 13 wells, also, the lowest observed water levels for the period of record occurred in October end November 1947 In 15 wells. Some of the wells, indicated by footnotes, are In 

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

It is to be noted, however, that the period of record at 13 out of the 42 

wells is less than 2 years In length. For the wells in New Haven, which 

have a period of record of at least 5 years, the lowest water levels on 

record in the Residential area, where pumping is at a minimum, occurred 

during the winter of 1941-42. The water level in two wells in New Haven, 

wells NHn 178 and NHn 250, reached its lowest observed stage during 1947. 

Both of these wells are near large pumping plants. Water levels In 7 of 

the 11 wells In Waterbury reached their lowest observed stages during 

August and September 1944. The effects of pumping in the Air-conditioning, 

Cold-storage, and Industrial areas of New Haven are shown by the relatively greater range of fluctuations of the water levels In these areas.
10 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

The relatively greater annual fluctuations of water level in some 

wells, notably those in Litohfield and Tolland Counties, and many in 

Waterbury, is due to the fact that they penetrate glacial till which is 

lesa permeable than the stratified drift which supplies wells in such areas 

as New Haven and Plalnfleld.

The net changes in water level during 1947 in observation wells are 

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

water level obtained by comparing measurements nearest to December 31, 

1946, and December 31, 1947* The tables show that, despite below-normal 

precipitation, water levels in all but six wells in Connecticut showed a 

net rise for the year. It is to be noted that the water levels in four of 

the six wells are affected by nearby pumpage. A net rise in water level 

in most wells, in direct contrast to below-normal precipitation for 1947, 

can best be explained by the fact that normal seasonal recharge was generally delayed until February 1047 and, thus, water levels were considerably 

below normal at the beginning of the year. Water levels were about average 

at the end of 1947. Thus, the combined result of these factors would 

account for a net average rise in water levels during 1947.

a Measurements discontinued Nov. 26, 1947.

The general relation between the fluctuation of water levels in 

Connecticut during 1947 to trends in other years, is shown in figure 3, 

a graph of the water-level measurements for well NHn 170, which is in the 

Residential area in New Haven. The water level in this well is not greatly affected by pumping from other wells. It may be seen that the water 

level during th-s past nine years has shown a slight downward trend, probably due to a net decrease in precipitation. It is also to be noted that 

the beginning of a seasonal recharge in 1947 was delayed until February, 

whereas the recharge period is normally begun about the beginning-of the 

year. By way of comparison, figure 3 also shows a graph of the water 

level for a well (NHn 178) in a heavily pumped area in New Haven. The 

continued downward trend of the water level in this well indicates that 

pumpage in the Industrial area continues to exceed the local safe yield.

DELAWARE

By J. M. Birdsall 

PROGRAM OF WORK

The program of ground-water Investigations, which was begun in 1943 

in cooperation with the Town of Lewes, was continued through 1947. The two 

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

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

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

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

The precipitation at Lewes was 5.81 Inches in January; 4.42 Inches in 

April; 4.27 inches in May, 5.43 Inches In September, and 4.93 Inches in 

November. The above-normal precipitation in these months may be correlated, 

for the most part, with rising water levels. The precipitation for the 

other months was considerably less and there was a corresponding decline in 

the water levels. Since the beginning of record, it would appear that there 

has been no definite trend either downward or upward, and this would probab__y indicate that replenishment of the ground-water supply is about equal to 

withdrawal In this immediate area. It is possible that heavier withdrawals 

might Induce greater recharge and a stable condition at a lower groundwater level. The danger of salt-water Intrusion must be considered seriously, however, before plans for additional diversions are made.

PROGRAM OP WORK

The observation-well program In Indiana was continued during 1947 In 

cooperation with the Indiana Department of Conservation, Division of Water 

Resources, C. H. Bechert, Director, as a part of the State-wide Investigation of ground-water resources. In addition to the observation-well program, detailed Investigations of ground-water resources were continued In 

Adams, Boone, and Noble Counties and In the South Bend area of St. Joseph 

County. Additional work on the effects of surface drainage on ground-water 

levels and on the levels of nearby lakes was continued.

Starting In May 1947, a monthly summary of water resources, Including 

surface water,' ground water, and lakes, was released by the Indiana Department of Conservation to waterworks superintendents, county agricultural 

agents, well drillers, and other Interested persons In Indiana. This release has brought to the general public Information on the seasonal changes 

and general trends in ground-water levels throughout the State.

At the end of 1946, the observation-well program Included 174 wells. 

During the year, the following wells were dropped from the program and measurements of water levels were discontinued:

Boone 15 Howard 3 Marion 14 St. Joseph 28

Elkhart 1 Madison 1 Noble 3 St. Joseph 34

Floyd 5 Madison 2 Putnam 1 St. Joseph 90

Fulton 3 Madison 5 Putnam 2 St. Joseph 91

Grant 1 Marion 13 St. Joseph 16-F Union 1

The following new wells were added arid measurements of water levels 

were started or resumed:

Adams 3 Madison 2 Marion 27 Posey 2

Glbson 2 Madison 6 Marion 28 Vanderburgh 1

Jay 2 Marion 26 Noble 7 Warrlck 1

At the end of 1947, the observation-well program Included 166 wells, 

of which 116 wells were measured weekly, 3 were measured dally, 9 were measured semimonthly, 8 occasionally at Irregular Intervals, and 30 were equipped

with automatic water-stage recorders. The locations of these wells are

21
32 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

shown in figure 4. During 1947, about 8,000 individual measurements of 

water level were made and about 9,300 additional determinations of water 

level were computed from recorder charts.

Measurements of water level in seven wells in Clark and Floyd Counties, 

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

M. I, Rorabaugh, district engineer, in connection with the Louisville, 

Kentucky, ground-water investigation. As these wells are in Indiana, the 

measurements are included in this report.

Thirty-two of the observation wells are on municipal property and are 

measured voluntarily by municipal employees. Twenty-four wells on State 

property are measured voluntarily by personnel of the Indiana Department 

of Conservation and 14 wells are measured voluntarily by various industrial 

personnel and other interested persons. The remaining 96 wells are measured 

by local observers employed by the U. S. Geological Survey.

PRECIPITATION

The average precipitation for the State during 1947 was 0.98 inch above 

normal, according to the U. S. Weather Bureau. The distribution throughout 

the year was erratic with heavy precipitation during April, May, and June, 

and relatively little precipitation during February and March and during 

November and December. The precipitation for the year is summarized as 

follows:

Excessive precipitation during April, May, and June, when conditions 

for recharge were unusually favorable, caused water levels in 71 wells to 

reach the highest stage of record. Deficient precipitation during October, 

November, and December allowed water levels in 40 wells to decline to the 

lowest stage on record.

Water levels In January were at a relatively low stage, but generally 

rose during the first 3 months of the year. The water levels in many 

shallow wells reached their highest stage during March in spite of deficient precipitation. Water levels in the majority of wells continued to 

rise during May, reaching their highest stages for the year In June. During the summer months water levels generally declined, the water levels In 

many heavily pumped areas reaching their lowest stage for the year In 

August and September and in the remainder of wells In October, November, or 

December. A comparison of year-end levels in 148 wells indicates a net rise 

930248 0-51-3

a Affected by pumping. b No change.

The graphs of water levels in three wells widely spaced in the State 

are shown in figure 5. They are relatively shallow wells in areas of 

small ground-water use and are believed to reflect changes in water level 

due only to natural causes. It is interesting to note that the general upward trend in water levels in wells Montgomery 1 and Clark 1 was continued 

during 1947.

INDIANA, ADAMS COUNTYGraphs of water levels in two wells in the downtown area of Indianapolis are shown in figure 6. The water levels in these wells are seriously affected by pumping from nearby wells for air-conditioning purposes. 

The month of August 1947 was the hottest on record and the increased pumpage 

of ground water for air-conditioning caused the water level in these wells 

to reach a lower stage than during 1946. However, it is believed that the 

low stages reached during 1947 indicate only a slowing-up of the generally 

rising trend of ground-water levels in the downtown area of Indianapolis.

MAINE

By L. M. Page, Jr. 

PROGRAM OF WORK

The program of periodic measurements of water level was continued in 

1947 at five observation wells in Maine. Measurements were made in three 

wells in the southern part of the State, at Amherst, Cornish, and Mercer, 

and in two others in the northern part of the State, at Portage and Sherman 

Mills. Readings were made about once a week and in all, 255 measurements 

were made during the year.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The water levels in wells in Maine usually show a definite seasonal 

pattern which is different from that found in southern New England. During the winter, when the ground is frozen and covered with snow, the water 

levels fall steadily. In March or April a rise usually occurs as a result 

of temperatures high enough to melt the snow cover. During the growing 

season a drop usually occurs beginning after the spring thaw and continues

through the summer months to September or October. This is followed by a

 

rise which continues until cold weather, after which water levels usually

decline throughout the winter.

Fluctuations of water level in Maine during 1947 followed, in general, 

the usual seasonal pattern except in the well at Mercer where water levels 

failed to rise after the growing season. Cold weather in the early part 

of January caused a drop in water levels at all the wells but precipitation 

and rising temperatures during the latter part of the month caused a rise 

in water level at all of the wells, except at Portage, and a net rise for 

the month at Amherst. The heavy precipitation during the first part of 

February and a thaw In the middle of March were reflected by rises in water 

level at all of the wells. At Cornish and Mercer a net rise In water levol 

was recorded for February and March followed by « decline during April,

Above-average precipitation and temperature in the northern part of the

9?
94 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

State during February and March and a snowfall in the middle of April 

caused the water levels at Portage and Sherman Mills to show a net rise 

for each of these three months. The water level at Amherst followed a 

similar pattern except for a drop in February. The beginning of the growing season was marked by a decline in the water levels which continued 

through the summer at all of the wells except Sherman Mills where above 

average precipitation caused a rise in water level during June and July, 

and at Cornish where heavy rainfall during, the middle of June caused a net 

rise in water level for the month. Very low precipitation occurred throughout Maine during the autumn months and resulted in the lowest observed 

water levels for the periods of record at three of the five observation 

wells. The well at Portage was dry from September 21 to November 2, and 

Cornish reached a new low stage on November 10. Above-average precipitation 

during November and the end of the growing season caused the water levels 

to rise through December in all of the wells except Mercer, where the water 

level continued to drop, and on December 15 reached the lowest observed 

level of record.

Comparison of water levels at the end of 1946 and 1947 indicate considerable decrease in ground-water storage during 1947 at all of the observation w ells.

Precipitation for the State as a whole during 1947 was 36.66 inches 

or about 3.48 inches below normal, and about 0.40 inch less than in 1946. 

Normal for the State is 40.14 inches. Precipitation was below normal for 

the year at 25 of 34 stations as compared with 24 of 33 stations in 1946. 

During February, May, June, July, and November precipitation for the State 

as a whole was normal or above normal. It was below normal for the remainder of the year particularly during October when drought conditions 

prevailed and rainfall for the State during the month was 0.44 inch.

By H. N. Halberg 

PROGRAM OF WORK

Investigations of the ground-water resources of Massachusetts, begun 

in 1938, were continued in 1947 in cooperation with the Massachusetts Department of Public Works. Periodic observations were continued in 33 wells 

in Middlesex County, in the vicinity of Lowell, in the Aberjona Valley area, 

and in the vicinity of Fresh Pond in Arlington and Cambridge; in 1 well 

each in Berkshire, Essex, Hampden, and Franklin Counties; and in 2 wells in 

Worcester county. During the year an observation well was established at 

Cheshire, in Berkshire County, one at Sterling, in Worcester County, and 

two at Ipswich, in Essex County. During the year observations were discontinued at one well at Topsfield, in Essex County. Water-stage recorders 

were operated throughout the year on three wells on one well at Wilmington, 

in Middlesex County, and on two wells at Leominster and Winchendon, in 

Worcester County. Water-level measurements were made weekly in the three 

wells established during the year, and monthly in the other wells, except 

in three wells in Lowell and four in Woburn in which measurements were made 

pnce during the year.

During 1944 and 1945 studies were made of ground-water conditions in 

the Fresh Pond, Cambridge area. This work was described in a paper by 

Roberts and the writer presented at Cambridge in September.

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

In 16 of the wells In the State for which readings were made throughout the 

year, and a net drop In 13 wells.

Precipitation during the year for the State as a whole was 40.95 

Inches, or 0.12 Inch more than In 1946, and 2.01 inches below normal. The 

maximum annual total was 49.52 Inches at Heath, in Franklin County, and the 

minimum 34.17 Inches at Swampscott, In Essex County. Total precipitation 

at Boston during the year was 37.91 Inches or 0.16 Inch less than In 1946 

and 2.23 Inches below normal. At Amherst the precipitation was 38.32 

inches or 0.29 Inch less than In 1946 and 5.66 inches below normalAt the beginning of the year the water table throughout the State was 

at a low stage for the time of year. In general, water levels throughout 

the State roee appreciably In January, declined In February, and rose during March and April. Following this, the seasonal decline occurred from 

May through September and October. Low stages occurred In October as the 

result of deficient precipitation during the month- Substantial recovery 

of ground-water storage during November resulted from heavy rains, following which water levels at the end of December, In the eastern and western 

sections of the State, were practically unchanged from November levels. In 

the central part of the State there were both rises and declines In water 

levels during December. A slight net Increase In ground-water storage 

occurred, In general, throughout the State during the year except In certain local areas which were affected by withdrawals of ground water.
100 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

At the end of January the water table in eastern and north-central 

sections of the State was at a high stage for the time of year but it was 

well below average in the western part. At the end of February practically 

all water levels in the State were below average, with those in the western 

part far below. In spite of the rise in March throughout the State, the 

water table was at its lowest March level in the eastern part of the State 

and below average in the rest of the State. However, further recovery in 

April brought the water table to average and above in eastern Massachusetts, 

and above average in the central part. In the western part of the State, 

however, water levels remained far below average. This pattern continued 

in effect to the end of May, except in western Massachusetts where the 

water levels rose to slightly above average.

Water levels in eastern Massachusetts continued well above average 

through September and dropped below average in October. In the central and 

western sections of the State water levels were below average through 

October reaching low stages in that month as the result of deficient 

precipitation. The only exception was in the well at Montague where the 

water level waa slightly above average at the end of October.

During November there was appreciable recovery throughout the State and 

water levels in eastern Massachusetts returned to above average. In the 

central part water levels were both below and above average being above at 

Leominster, about at average at Montague, and far below average at Brimfield 

and Winchendon. In the western part of the State water levels at Great 

Barrington were below average throughout the year except at the end of May, 

and at an all-time low for its period of record at the end of September. 

At the end of the year, water levels throughout the State were below average 

and appreciably so in the western part of the State.

The water level in observation well Lowell 43 at the Lowell Water 

Works pumping station, on Pawtucket Boulevard, reached a new low stage for 

its period of record at the end of April. It was at or close to its lowest 

monthly level each month during the year, and a loss of ground-water storage 

was indicated by a net drop in water level of 2.18 feet during the yearWell Lowell 41 at the Cook well field pumping station of the Lowell Water 

Works was also far below average during the entire year. However, there
MASSACHUSETTS, BERKSHIRE COUNTY 101

was a slight gain In storage during the year, and at the end of December 

the water level, although low, was 3 feet above that of December 1943, the 

lowest December stage of record*

In southern Middlesex County large net declines In water levels In 

wells Arlington 174, Cambridge 667, and Cambridge 798 Indicated a total net 

loss In ground-water storage In that area during the year* These wells are 

near Fresh Pond In Cambridge, a water-table pond utilized as a reservoir 

by the Cambridge Water Department, with the nearby glacial deposits used 

for ground-water storage. The water levels In the wells fluctuate with the 

pond level.

The water levels In seven wells scattered throughout the State reached 

new low stages for their periods of record, all of which resulted from the 

low precipitation during the autumn except In well Lowell 43.

By J. G. Ferris, E. A. Moulder, and Norman Billings 

PROGRAM OF WORK

The State-wide Investigation of the ground-water resources of Michigan 

was continued during 1947 In cooperation with the Geological Survey Division 

of the Michigan Department of Conservation. Intensive surveys of groundwater conditions In the Alma, Battle Creek, Flint, Holland, and Kalamazoo 

areas started In 1946 were expanded during the year. In the Flint area, It 

was found.that a drift-filled channel in the Saglnaw sandstones was so limited In width and Intake area that peak load wells proposed by the city of 

Flint for emergency water supply would deplete several hundred domestic and 

Industrial wells presently pumping from these deposits and wholly dependent 

on this source for continued supply. Although the results of this survey 

were of a negative nature from the standpoint of developing large capacity 

wells by the city of Flint, It did outline an extended aquifer of considerable economic Importance to suburban and rural well users.

The survey of the Battle Creek area played an important part In fixing 

the location of a water treatment plant by determining that present well 

developments in the Marshall sandstone of this area are vastly superior to 

the drift supplies. In the Holland area, the survey revealed a great thickness of drift deposits occurring as a fill within a preglacial channel which 

is cut through the underlying Coldwater shale. An overlying aquiclude of 

considerable thickness protects these deep deposits of sand and gravel from 

the surface contamination which has been a serious problem In the operation 

of present shallow wells In this area. In the Kalamazoo area, the Investigation showed the presence of a deep and broad preglacial valley which is 

filled with permeable'drift deposits. The vertical and areal distribution 

of these deposits are now being outlined by test drilling. It was also determined that thOventrenchment of surface streams into the ground-water reservoir at several locations provides very favorable opportunities for

induced Infiltration of surface water to nearby wells. In the Alma area,

111

it was found that the greater part of the existing municipal water-supply 

development is furnished by permeable deposits of sand and gravel which 

occur as a fill within an interglacial channel which is incised in a thick 

till sheet. The trend and distribution of these deposits have been outlined as a part of this survey and quantitative studies of the capacity of 

this aquifer are in progress.

In connection with the above-mentioned intensive surveys of groundwater resources and as a part of the State-wide inventory of water resources, 

a water-level observation program has been conducted in selected wells to 

determine the trends and the changes of storage in the ground-water reservoirs. About 6,300 individual measurements of water level were made in 

1947 in more than 200 observation wells. Included in this group were 37 

observation wells equipped with automatic water-stage recorders from which 

continuous records of water level were obtained. Water levels were measured 

at periods ranging from semlweekly to monthly in 209 additional wells. 

During the year, 38 observation wells were added and measurements were discontinued on 15 wells in the State-wide program. Included in the net increase of 23 observation wells were 12 wells equipped with automatic waterstage recorders.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The Grayling recorder well, Or Or 6, near Grayling, in Crawford County, 

may be used as an index of the trends of ground-water level In shallow 

water-table aquifers in the northern part of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan. From the continuous record of water level, obtained from this well by 

an automatic water-stage recorder, it is possible to follow in some detail 

the response of ground-water level to the influence of recharge from precipitation and discharge primarily by underflow and evapotranspiration. The 

water level in the Grayling recorder well at the start of the year was 7.30 

feet below land surface and it remained rather steady during the first half 

of January. Relatively mild weather during the middle and latter parts of 

the month resulted in some snow melt and consequent recharge to the groundwater reservoir with a net rise in water level during the month of 0.25 

foot. Below-normal temperatures through the latter part of January, February, and most of March stopped further recharge from the snow cover and 

ground-water levels declined about 0.1 foot by the latter part of March. A 

period of relatively mild temperatures from the 19th to the 24th, inclusive,
MICHIGAN 113

coupled with a storm on March 24 and 25 caused sufficient recharge In the 

area to raise ground-water levels at the end of March to 0.4 foot above the 

mid-March water level.

Although the mean temperature for April was below normal, all dally 

maximum temperatures recorded at Grayling were considerably above freezing. 

Particularly heavy precipitation during the first week of the month, which 

resulted In severe flooding in the southern part of the State, resulted In 

a rise of 2.43 feet from April 1 to the high for the year on April 12. Water levels. In general, declined during the balance of the month with the 

exception of moderate recharge from the precipitation of April 22 to 24, 

inclusive. The month of May was the fourth coldest and fifth wetteet since 

1887. Heavy precipitation during the first week of the month returned water 

levels to a high of 4.26 feet below land surface on May 5 or 0.05 foot below the April 12 high of 4.21 feet below land surface. Some additional recharge occurred during the middle part of Hay, but, in general, the balance 

of the month was marked by a slight decline In ground-water level. Although the relatively cold temperatures during May greatly delayed spring 

planting they also held evapotransplratlon demands to a minimum.

Precipitation during June was slightly below normal with temperatures 

throughout the State also averaging somewhat below normal. With the seasonal rise of air temperatures, however, the evapotransplratlon demand was 

sufficiently Increased to cause a marked decline of water level from 4.77 

feet below land surface on June 1 to 5.85 feet on June 30, or a net decline 

of 1.08 feet. Temperatures during July were slightly below normal and precipitation near normal. Notwithstanding the near-normal precipitation, water levels continued to decline under the influence of the evapotransplratlon demand to reach a level of 6.87 feet below land surface by July 31. 

The month of August was the warmest on record and the third warmest of all 

months since 1887. Precipitation for the month was somewhat below normal 

and most of this rainfall occurred during the latter part of the month. 

Accelerated evapotransplratlon demand^^occaeloned by the above-normal temperatures, resulted in a sharp decline of water levels/through most of the 

month with some decrease in the rate of decline during the latter part of 

the month as a result of precipitation during this period.
114 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

Water levels continued to decline through the first part of September 

to reach the lowest stage for the year of 8.09 feet below land surface on 

September 13. Precipitation of 2 inches or more occurred during the storms 

of September 10 to 12 and 19 to 21, inclusive, and considerable recharge to 

the water table raised the ground-water level to 7.10 feet below land surface on September 30 or a net rise of 0.99 foot from the September 13 low. 

October was the warmest on record and the first October without snow in 61 

years of record. Precipitation for the month was 0.32 inch or 2.6 inches 

below normal. Water levels declined throughout the month to a level of 7.43 

feet below land surface a net decline of 0.33 foot.

Mild temperatures and moderate precipitation in November resulted in 

sufficient recharge to stop the downward trend of the water table in the 

first part of the month. A period of warm weather from November 17 to 25, 

inclusive, coupled with moderate precipitation on November 22 resulted in 

a rise of water level through the last part of the month and a net rise for 

the. month of 0.49 foot. Above-freezing temperatures in the first part of 

December plus moderate precipitation on December 8 resulted in a net rise 

of water level of 0.11 foot during the month. The end-of-the-year water 

level of 6.85 feet below land surface represents a net rise of 0.45 foot 

during the year.

In the southern part of the Lower Peninsula, the water-level highs for 

the year were recorded during periods ranging from April 10 to as late as 

mid-June. Most observation wells in this area are finished in artesian 

strata or water-table aquifers with relatively great depths to water. In 

addition, many of the observation wells in this area are affected by the 

withdrawal of large quantities of water for industrial or public supply. 

The great depth to water in the water-table aquifers and the large distances 

to outcrop areas of the artesian aquifers contribute to the considerable 

lag in the time of arrival of the recharge influences. In some cases the 

peak water levels for the year lagged as much as 2 months beyond the peak 

stage of the shallow water-table wells in the northern part of the Lower 

Peninsula.

With one exception, in each of the areas previously noted under intensive investigation, there was a net rise of water level or artesian pressure 

during the year ranging from 1 foot to more than 3 feet. The exception was the
MICHIGAN, CAIB0UN COUNTY 115

Lansing area where most observation wells showed the continued decline of 

water level which has progressed from the start of record in this area and 

which indicates localized overdevelopment of the water resource.

The abnormally high precipitation which set record intensity rates for 

many stations in the southern part of the State during the storm of April 4 

to 6, inclusive, resulted in rapid and large rises of ground-water level in 

some observation wells in the Battle Creek and Kalamazoo areas. In both 

areas the artesian aquifers are intersected by the Kalamazoo River and the 

amount of pressure rise was dependent, in part, on the proximity of the observation well to this outcrop of the aquifer. Water level rises ranged 

from 2 feet to as much as 10 feet and the peak occurrence lagged the highwater stage of the river by several days.

a 'Vetted-tape measurement. b Estimated.

Wexford County

(No measurements made in 1947.)
NEW HAMPSHIRE

By H. L. Free, Jr. 

PROGRAM OF WORK

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

at one observation well near Bristol, In the town of Hill, Merrlmack 

County, were continued in 1947. Twelve measurements were made at this 

well during the year.

The Manchester Water Works continued periodic measurements of water 

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

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

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

on October 6, 1947. Twelve weekly water-level measurements were made in 

this well during the year.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

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

due largely to precipitation and seasonal variations in temperature. Precipitation at nearby Franklin was 40.47 Inches during the year, which is 

0.6 inch above normal and about 0.2 inch less than in 1946. The water 

level in this well was above average from January through April and at the 

end of June, and below average in May and from July until the end of the 

year. It was at or near a new high stage for the month at the end of 

January, February, and April. The highest observed water level occurred 

at the end of April; the lowest observed water level occurred from the end 

of September through the end of December when the well was dry.

The abrupt rise in water level in the well near Bristol in March was 

due partly to temperatures high enough to melt part of the snow cover and 

to well above normal precipitation. The water level rose through the end 

of April, when it reached its highest recorded stage for the period 1942-47. 

From the end of April it declined steadily until the end of September, when,

for the first time since it was established, the well was dry. Even in

177
178 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

November, when the precipitation, Including very little snow, was far above 

normal, the well was dry. The water level did not recover by the date of 

the last measurement at the end of December. A considerable decrease In 

ground-water storage during 1947 was Indicated by a net drop in water level 

of more than 2.6 feet during the year.

The water level In the well at Auburn also apparently reflects changes 

In precipitation and seasonal fluctuations In te mperature. Precipitation 

at nearby Manchester during 1947 was 40.57 Inches, or 1.42 Inches above 

normal and about 1.38 Inches more than In 1946. Although the total precipitation for 1947 exceeded that for 1946, there was a net drop In water 

level during the year of about 0.6 foot. This may be due, in part, to the 

failure of the water levels to recover from the lowest level of record, 

which occurred on November 8. The water level In this well was slightly 

above average at the end of January, February, and March and at the end of 

May and June; It was well below average throughout the rest of the year.

The water level In this well rose from the first of January to the 

end of March, partly as a result of above-normal precipitation during much 

of this period. Temperatures above freezing during the latter part of 

January and during much of February and March also contributed to the 

steady rise In water level during this period. The water level declined, 

except for occasional small rises, from the end of March until the early 

part of November, due to the needs of plants and to deficient precipitation 

In August, September, and October. Far above normal precipitation in 

November contributed to the sharp rise in water level In that month.

In the well at New London the water level dropped steadily from 

October 6, when It was established, until the end of the year. Although 

the period of record of this well Is not long enough to Indicate any 

trends, the decline in water level noted is probably the result of deficient rainfall.

NEW JERSEY

By J. M. Birdsall 

PROGRAM OP WORK

The cooperative Investigation of the ground-water resources of Hew 

Jersey was continued throughout 1947 In cooperation with the New Jersey 

Department of Conservation, Division of Mater Policy and Supply. During 

the year about 3,400 Individual measurements of water levels were made In 

addition to the continuous records obtained by the use of water-stage 

recorders. At the end of the year approximately 150 wells were being observed. Measurements were made monthly or less frequently In some of the 

wells, biweekly and weekly In others, and several times a day In one. 

Continuous records from water-stage recorders were obtained for 51 wells 

during the year. The State and Federal Governments owned 44 of these recorders, and the rest were owned by various public water-supply companies 

and by Industries.

PRECIPITATION

The precipitation In New Jersey was above normal In January, April, 

May, and November with May of this year the wettest since 1894, and 

November the wettest since 1932, the average precipitation being about 

twice the normal amount. For the other 8 months the precipitation was below normal. For the year as a whole It was 45.83 inches, or slightly 

above normal. According to the Cllmatologlcal Data of the IT. S* Weather 

Bureau (New Jersey Section), the year was unusually free from destructive 

storms.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

The Morrell well (29.11.1.2.3.) is a shallow key observation well near 

Old Bridge, in Middlesex County, and is considered to be a reasonably reliable index of the amount of water stored in the ground, particularly 

during the growing season. The water level responds quickly to precipitation, and due to the location, it Is not affected by pumping. From the

180
NEW JERSEY 181

hydrograph of this well for 1947, it would appear that the ground-water 

storage was rather uniformly high during the first 5 months of the year 

as was the base in 1946. Between June 8 and July 7, the water level declined from about 74 feet above mean sea level to about 71-43 feet. This 

decline was checked by precipitation as noted-at the nearby Runyon station 

on a number of days until July 22 when the water level had risen to about 

73.50 feet above mean sea level. Prom this date until the end of October, 

there was a pronounced decline until the water level was approximately 

69.60 feet above mean sea level. This decline may be attributed to the 

usual heavy transpiration by vegetation during the growing season and to 

subnormal precipitation. Prom then until November 12 a sharp rise in the 

water level to approximately 74.15 feet above mean sea level was noted 

which was probably the result of an average precipitation of about twice 

the normal amount. The level remained up until the end of the year when 

it was approximately 73.80 feet above mean sea level.

In Salem County new high levels were observed in 10 wells during 1947. 

There were no new lows. The highs occurred during March, April, May, June, 

and July, and probably reflect a distribution of pumpage.

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

800-foot sand, a part of the Kirkwood formation, exhibited a seasonal 

fluctuation similar to that in 1946 and preceding years. In the Longport 

well, which is typical of the wells tapping this artesian aquifer, the 

daily average water level was 38.6 feet below mean sea level at the beginning of the year. This fell to a daily average of 58-8 feet on 

August 14 with extreme low of 60.1 feet below mean sea level on the same 

day. Thereafter the average rose to 39.7 feet below mean sea level on 

December 31. The fluctuations of artesian pressure in this area are believed to be the result of pumping.

In the Camden area a new low was recorded in the New Jersey Water 

Company well 10 on July 1, 1947, when the water level stood 26.2 feet below 

mean sea level. This was probably due to a shift in the distribution of 

pumpage.

In the Runyon area, Middlesex County, new lows were recorded as 

follows: 48.3 feet below mean sea level September 15, 1947, in Old Deep 

well 8 and 54.9 feet below mean sea level September 26, 1947, in Old Deep 

well 1. Bach of the wells taps the Farrington sand, member of the Raritan
182- WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE,, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

formation, and both are equipped with water-stage recorders. These lows 

probably reflect a shift in the distribution of pumpage as well as some 

over-all increase in pumpage from the sand.

At Bradley Beach, in the Asbury.Park area of Monmouth County, a record high of 11.28 feet above mean sea level was noted November 13, 1947, 

at the Bradley Beach 650-foot well. This may have been the result of repairs to the well which were made during the year in an attempt to revive 

its productive capacity.

In the East Paterson area, Bergen County, Garfield well 11, a new 

low of 3.9 feet below mean sea level was noted on October 26, 27, 28, and 

29, 1947. This is a 12-inch well, 353 feet deep, has a water-stage recorder and draws from Triassic sandstone. This is probably a result of 

increased pumpage and may also have been affected by a shift in its distribution.

PROGRAM OP WORK

Periodic measurement of water levels In observation wells In Upstate 

New York was continued during 1947. Records for 21 wells are Included In 

this report. Of these, four are equipped with weekly type automatic waterstage recorders and are operated In cooperation with the New York State Department of Conservation. Pour others, similarly equipped, and 13 which 

are measured periodically with a tape or tape gage, are operated In cooperation with the New York State Water Power and Control Commission, and under the 

active sponsorship of the New York Departments of Commerce, Healthy and 

Public Works, and Office of the Geologist, New York State Science Service. 

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

Water levels In wells Cn 1, C 100, C 101, and D J.57 were about normal 

early In January followed by substantial rises late In the month which held 

through early February. A rapid recession followed so that late in February 

and during early March all wells were somewhat below normal. During July 

all wells were considerably above normal with new highs for the month recorded at two of the wells. A gradual but very definite recession started 

in August and continued throughout September and October and Into early 

November at which time new November lows were observed at three, out of the 

four wells. Rapid recovery took place during the middle and latter part of 

the month, however, so that all wells were only slightly below normal at the 

close of the year, with an average net loss In level for the year of about 

0.6 foot.

Water level records for 8 of the 21 wells appear for the first time 

in this report. In the paragraphs that follow a brief description is given 

for each of the eight new wells of the principal geologic and topographic 

features affecting ground-water levels in the general areas in which these 

wells are situated.

Wells Ag 95, Bm 87, Cm 83, Cm 84, Sy 9, and Sb 200 are all in the 

southwestern plateau province of New York State, and in the watersheds of 

tributaries to the Susquehana River. The southwestern plateau province occupies the southwestern portion of New York from Lake .Erie to the Catskill 

Mountains, and from the Pennsylvania border to the Mohawk valley. It Is 

mostly underlain by s thick series of shales and sandstones of Devonian age 

which have a gentle regional dip towards the south or southwest of 30 to 50 

feet a mile. The plateau is well dissected by streams so that the topography 

is steeply rolling. Summit elevations vary from 500 to 600 feet on the 

northern side of the plateau to over 2,000 feet on the eastern and western 

sides. In the localities occupied by the wells, summit elevations are between 1,600 and 2,200 feet, and the main valleys are eroded about 600 to 

1,000 feet below summit levels, The region was also affected by glaoiation 

which deposited a relatively thin mantle of till on the hillsides and uplands, but filled the main valleys with unconsolidated deposits up to several 

hundred feet thick. Thus, many streams meander along valley flats consisting of unconsolidated glacial deposits and which range in width from a few 

hundred feet to several miles.

Well Ag 95, near Almond, is on a hillside about 400 feet below the 

summit and about 250 feet above Canacadea Creek which flows at an elevation 

of 1,300 feet above sea level, 0.5 mile east of the well.

Well Bm 87 is near the summit of the plateau which is about 1,600 feet 

above sea level in this vicinity. The Tioughnioga River, about 5.5 miles 

east of Bm 87, is the nearest large stream and flows at an elevation of 

about 1,000 feet above sea level.

Well Cm 83 is on a hillside about 100 feet below the summit. The 

Chemung River is the nearest large stream and flows at 800 feet above sea 

level, 4.0 miles south of Cm 83.
NEW YORK 227

Well Cm 84 is drilled in the flood plain (or valley flat) of the 

Chemung River. The river flows around the well on the north and east about 

a mile away, and at about 830 feet, elevation or 20 feet below the land surface at the well. Water levels in this well may be influenced by stream 

stage, especially during high water or flood flows.

Well Sy 9 is on a hillside about 100 feet below the summit. Summit 

elevations in the vicinity reach about 2,000 feet above sea level, while the 

nearest large stream is Cayuta Creek, 1.2 miles southwest of the well, where 

it flows at an elevation of 1,100 feet above sea level.

Well Sb 200 is in the valley of Tuscarora Creek, about 500 feet north 

of the creek and about 40 feet above it. The creek flows at 1,380 feet 

above sea level at this place and summit elevations in the vicinity are 

about 1,900 feet above sea level.

Wells Re 660 and W 264 are in the northern part of the Hudson Valley 

province, which is a depression lying between the western highlands of 

New England and the eastern highlands of New York. In the localities occupied by the wells it is underlain by folded and metamorphosed shales, limestones and grits of Cambrian age, and the topography is charactsrized by an 

abundance of rocky hills or ridges ranging in height from about 100 to about 

500 feet.

Re 660 is on a gently sloping field surrounded by hills rising about 

150 feet above the land surface at the well. A small unnamed creek which 

is reduced to a trickle In late summer, flows past the well about 200 feet 

away.

W 264 is in a valley flat between the confluence of Beaver Brook and 

White Creek. The hills and ridges that surround the well rise about 410 

feet above the land surface at the well. Water levels in this well may be 

influenced by stream stage, especially during high water or flood flows.

LONG ISLAND

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

PROGRAM OP WORK

The Investigation of ground-water conditions on Long Island was continued during 1947 In cooperation with the New York State Water Power and 

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

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

Authority. The basic phase of this Investigation comprised the periodic 

measurements of water levels in about 240 observation wells, 31 of which 

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

4,200 individual measurements were made, manual readings being made approximately 1 month apart.

GEOLOGY

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

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

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

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

with Impervious material. The second zone, the Jameco gravel, also a gl'acial 

outwash deposit, is distributed only around the borders of the island and 

is usually covered by the Gardiners clay, an interglacial deposit. The 

third and fourth zones consist of widespread beds of Cretaceous sands and 

gravels of supposed Magothy age. The third zone lies in the upper part of 

the Magothy deposits and generally coneists of coarse to medium sand. In 

the center of the island these sands are open to the overlying glacial outwash whereas around the borders of the island they are covered by either the 

Gardiners clay or the Jameco gravel. The fourth zone, in the lower part of 

the Magothy beds, consists of coarse sand and gravel, and is generally overlain by beds and lenses of clay distributed within the Magothy deposits. 

The fifth and lowermost zone, the Lloyd sand, lies Just above the bedrock 

floor of the island and is generally covered by beds of Raritan clay. The
240 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

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

which extend through most of Long Island.

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

large quantities of water are stored and into which water derived from precipitation can readily sink- As a result, the water table in these beds 

responds more or less rapidly to changes in the rate of precipitation. In 

conbrast, the.deeper sands that lie beneath clay beds are under artesian 

pressure and are fed at a more or less constant rate by water percolating 

down from the overlying formations, through relatively small intake areas. 

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

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

by the capacity of the beds to transmit water from the areas of intake to 

the points of withdrawal. Because of these features the movement of water 

levels in wells that penetrate the deeper sands is controlled chiefly by 

changes in rate of withdrawal.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

The relation between precipitation and the fluctuation of water levels

I/ 2/ 

has been discussed at considerable length by Leggette and by Jacob and

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

5/ been reported by Leggette. The position of water table for most of Long

i/ Island has been defined by Jacob.

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

glacial beds, from which over half of the withdrawals are taken, but a number of them penetrate the deeper beds. The observation wells that appear

_________________________________________________________3202

Generally speaking, Long Island may be divided into two hydrologlc 

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

Island excessive pumping for a number of years has lowered the water table 

below sea level In a large area In Kings County and adjacent parts of Queens 

County. In the other parts of the Island the perennial recharge exceeds 

ground-water withdrawals with the result that the water table stands above 

sea level except at a few places along the shores where local overdevelopment has occurred. In the higher parts of the Island the water table stands 

as much as 80 feet above mean sea level.

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

table responds more or less rapidly to changes In the distribution of pumpIng and also the over all rate of withdrawal, whereas the other parts of the 

Island, the major fluctuations of ground-water level are chiefly the result 

of differences In amount and distribution of precipitation.

Prior to 1933, overdevelopment of the ground-water resources In Kings 

County had produced progressively decllnning water levels. As a result of 

this overdevelopment a "crater-like" depression was formed on the water 

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

water level In pumping wells being at even greater depths. Increased pumpage due to the development of the ground-water supplies for industrial and 

alr-condltloning purposes further aggravated the situation for a few years 

even though State legislation was enacted In 1933 requiring that water 

pumped from new wells, for the purposes of cooling, be returned to the ground.
#43 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

However, since 1942, the water table in the overpumped area of Brooklyn 

has shown signs of recovery and has followed more or less the general upward trend of water levels in other parts of Long Island. This is clearly 

indicated by graphs plotted on figure 8 for the average water level of 

14 selected wells in Nassau and Suffolk Counties, and for Well K30, an observation well near the center of the "crater" in Brooklyn. As discussed

5/ 

by Jacob, the general recovery of water levels on Long Island corresponds

quite closely with the trend of the average rate of precipitation. In 

Brooklyn, the rise in water levels since 1942 also expresses a more favorable balance between natural (and artificial) recharge and pumpage, which 

has resulted, in part, from the beneficial effects of the State law that 

requires the return of the ground water pumped for cooling, and in part, to

*/

a reduction in industrial pumpage as indicated by Johnson.

On Long Island the usual trend of water levels consists of an ascending stage during the early months of the year with the peak being reached 

in. approximately the month of May. Thereafter the stage declines far into 

the latter part of the year with a recovery cormencing in late December or 

January of the following year. In somewhat of a contrast to this pattern, 

the year 1947 was characterized by. low water-table levels in Queens, Nassau, 

and Suffolk Counties in Long Island; the recession which began in the summer of 1946 continued with only slight interruptions almost to the end of 

1947. The few small recoveries during the first 10 months of 1947 were 

inappreciable, as most of the heavy rains occurred during the growing season and were more or less local* However, the downward trend of water levels 

was reversed by November and December subsequent to heavy precipitation 

occurring during the nongrowing season. Very heavy rains fell during November with most of it p-«*cipitating in heavy storms within the first 12 

days of the month., The rainfall, together with the seasonally reduced pumping, caused most wells in Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk Counties to recover 

from the low levels reached in the fall.

In Brooklyn (Kings County), at the western end of Long Island, a general recession of the water table occurred during the first 6 months of the 

year. However, a large decrease in pumpage in the Platbush area caused an

appreciable rise for the last 6 months of the year. On June 29 and 30, the 

New York Water Service Corporation, as a result of condemnation proceedings 

by the city of New York, permanently ceased to operate about 35 wells which 

tapped the water table and underlying artesian aquifers. This shutdown of 

about 27 million gallons a day represents a reduction of nearly 50 percent 

In the net ground-water withdrawal in Brooklyn. Recoveries of 2 to 7 feet 

in the water table were observed during the last 6 months of the year in the 

vicinity of those wells in which pumping ceased. The abrupt rise at well 

K1263 (fig. 8), beginning in July and carrying through the remainder of 

the year, is representative of the recovery which occurred in the many observation wells measured in the Platbush area following the shutdown. Water 

levels for several of these observation' wells appear in the present report 

and are listed in the following table:

No appreciable rise in the water table has been observed at any great 

distance from the franchise area of the New York Water Service Corporation 

as indicated by the level at well K30 (fig. 8 ), about 2 miles north of the 

franchise area- At this well rise in water level of only 0.3 foot during 

1947 was noted. However, with the pumpage reduced appreciably during 194T 

in Brooklyn, water levels should continue to recover for some time to come 

and perhaps follow more closely the trend of water levels in Central Long 

Island.

All others are water-»table wells tapping upper glacial beds.

The net change table reveals that water levels In Queens^ Nassau, and 

Suffolk Counties at the end of 1947, were, for the most part, lower than 

those at the end of 1946. Many of the low levels measured In the fall of 

1947 were also below those of 1941-2 but decidedly above those measured during the severe drought of the early thirties. As shown In the summary table, 

the lowest levels reported In 1947 were record lows for the period of record 

In more than 60 percent of the wells under observation In Queens and Suffolk 

Counties Indicating that ground-water storage decreased considerably during 

the year. In many cases, however, the shortness of the period of record 

diminishes the long-time significance of the observed record lows.

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

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

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

combined public-supply pumpage for Kings, Queens, and Nassau Counties averaged 144.8 million gallon a day which Is an increase of about 2.9 percent 

over 1946. The total pumpage would have been greater by about 13 million 

gallons a day had the New York Water Service Corporation not discontinued 

Its pumpage in Brooklyn In June 1947. These figures are for public-supply 

withdrawals only and they do not include those for the large quantities of 

water withdrawn from private wells for industrial and other purposes. Unfortunately, there are no complete data available for public supply or Industrial pumpage for Suffolk County at the present time.

PROGRAM OP WORK

Ground-water investigations in Ohio were continued in 1947 in cooperation with the Ohio Water Resources Board, the Ohio Engineering Experiment 

Station, the Commissioners of Butler and Hamilton Counties, the Federal 

Works Agency, and the city of Canton. Detailed investigations of groundwater conditions were completed during the year in Montgomery and Tuscarai/2/ 

was Counties and reports giving the results of these investigations

were published by the Ohio Hater Resources Board. Investigations were continued in Lucas, Mahoning, and Stark Counties. Additional investigations 

were started in Summit County in March and in Greene County in September. 

Observation wells were maintained in all heavily pumped areas of the State 

and at various locations in the rural areas.

At the end of 1947 automatic water-stage recorders were in operation 

on 113 observation wells throughout Ohio. Hew installations were made on 

23 wells during the year as additions to the State-wide water-level program. 

Recording gages were operated for short periods in connection with pumping 

tests and special studies at Toledo, Canton, Athens, and Zanesville. 

Twelve observation wells were added to the Federal observation-well program, 

making a total of 13 now in operation.

In addition to the wells equipped with automatic gages, 118 wells 

were measured periodically, mostly in Butler and Hamilton Counties. During 

1947, however, measurements were discontinued in 27 wells in Butler County 

that had previously been measured at weekly intervals, and 3 recorder wells

were discontinued. In Hamilton County measurements were discontinued in

\ 

one well that had previously been measured weekly, and recorders were re-

moved from five other observation wells in the State during the year. The 

locations of observation wells in Ohio in 1947 are shown on the map in 

figure 9.

The 1947 water-level records for 231 observation wells in Ohio are 

tabulated alphabetically by counties. The wells in Butler and Hamilton . 

Counties are designated by numbers as given in Water-Supply Paper 999. 

Observation wells in all other counties are designated by letter symbols 

corresponding to the county names, followed by numbers for successive wells 

in each county.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

The records of water levels contained in this report show that in 

1947 conditions for ground-water recharge in Ohio were especially good in 

April and May. Rainfall in these months was above normal, soil moisture 

had been largely replenished by precipitation in January, and transpiration 

and evaporation losses were low. Throughout the remainder of the year conditions were not favorable for large amounts of recharge in the summer 

months because of high transpiration and evaporation losses and in the winter months because of frozen ground and low precipitation. However, the 

large amount of recharge that occurred in April and May was sufficient to 

maintain ground-water levels at near normal stages throughout the last half 

of the year in those parts of the State where pumping was not a major factor. The trends in some of the heavily pumped areas of the State may be 

Judged by the water-level data given in the following table.

PENNSYLVANIA

By R. R. Huber 

PROGRAM OF WORK

The program of water-level measurements in observation wells in 

Pennsylvania* begun in 1951, was continued in 1947 in cooperation with the 

Topographic and Geologic Survey of the Pennsylvania Department of Internal 

Affairs. Three new observation wells were established during the year, 

one in Philadelphia, one in Pittsburgh, and one in Cumberland County in 

the Susquehanna River Basin.

More than 8,000 measurements of water level, distributed among 65 

wells, are recorded for the year. In 46 of the wells measurements were 

made weekly. A total of 19 automatic water-stage recorders were in use in 

1947, 15 of them at the Philadelphia Naval Base. Daily measurements are 

given for all wells equipped with recorders.

Weekly measurements of 22 observation wells situated in the Susquehanna River Basin in Pennsylvania were made available to the Pennsylvania 

Water and Power Company at Baltimore, Maryland. These measurements, continuing a record begun in 1950, are used by this company as a means of predicting minimum stream flow of the Susquehanna River at their hydroelectric 

plant s.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVEL

Weekly measurements of 29 observation wells distributed over the 

State have been converted to feet above assumed datum planes and arithmetically averaged. This weekly average for 1947 is shown in figure 10, 

together with the highest and lowest weekly averages occurring during the 

period 1932-46. Only those wells that were thought free of any pumpage 

effects were used in computing these average figures. The figure also 

shows the monthly mean precipitation for Pennsylvania in 1947, together 

with the normal precipitation based on records over a period of 60 years.

Fluctuations of the weekly average watesf level correspond closely to 

changes in the State-wide average of precipitation. Average monthly precipitation in 1947 varied widely from normal throughput most of the year. 

While total precipitation for the year was only 1.00 inch below average 

for the 60-year period of record, monthly deviations were pronounced, as 

shown by the following summaryt

February: fifth driest of record

March : seventh driest of record

May : fourth wettest of record

July : wettest In 51 years

October : sixth driest of record

November: tenth wettest of record

Average water level rose sharply in late January in response to heavy precipitation and high temperature, resulting in the highest level recorded 

for the first week of February. The deficiency of precipitation In February and March caused the level to approach the lowest of record for the 

middle of Maroh. July rains produced the highest average water level recorded for the third week of the month, but by early November, the level
PENNSYLVANIA 419

again approached a record low due to the narked dryneas of October. At 

the year's end, water levels were only slightly below average.

Throughout the year sharp contrasts in monthly precipitation were reflected in pronounced variations in average water levels. The large range 

of water-level fluctuation, together with the speed of response to precipitation conditions, emphasizes the relatively low storage capacity of 

the surface rocks of Pennsylvania. High ground-water levels reflecting 

water-table conditions do not indicate sufficient storage to carry through 

more than a few.weeks of deficient rainfall." Conversely, depleted storage 

of the shallow ground-water reservoir may be filled quickly by favorable 

precipitation.

Philadelphia area

During 1947, 22 observation wells in south Philadelphia were measured 

weekly or daily. Seventeen of these wells were equipped with automatic 

water-stage recorders. Hydrographs of these wells indicate that during 

the year water levels, in general, remained fairly constant except for the 

effects of tides and periodic operation of large wells. The sands and 

gravels that underlie portions of south Philadelphia constitute the main 

source of water supply for the Philadelphia Naval Base and many industries 

in that area. Levels in the observation wells readily reflect any change 

in production by operating wells in the area, as is shown by the sharp 

rise in the levels of some of the wells during periods in the latter part 

of the year when several large industries curtailed production. When 

normal production was again begun the levels readily assumed their former 

lower positions. In general, water levels in south Philadelphia do not 

indicate depletion of the ground-water supply at the present rate of withdrawal and, in some areas, indicate that increased production is possible.

Pittsburgh area

Ground-water studies in Pittsburgh, begun in 1946 as a part of the 

cooperative ground-water program- in Pennsylvania, were continued in 194V. 

A comprehensive study of ground-water use and ground-water conditions in 

general was begun in the sand and gravel deposits of Allegheny County. 

During the year weekly measurements were made in 13 wells in the downtown 

area of Pittsburgh. Although the period of record is still comparatively 

short, observations to date do not show any definite lowering of water 

levels in the areas of heavy ground-water use in Pittsburgh.

RHODE ISLAND

By W. B. Alien 

PROGRAM OP WORK

The observation-well program in Rhode Island was continued during 

1947 as a part of the State-wide investigation of mineral resources in 

cooperation with the Rhode Island Industrial Commission. The main purpose 

of the ground-water phase of the investigation is to study ground-water 

conditions and ground-water, supplies throughout the State.

The program in Rhode Island during 1947 was directed toward the investigation of ground-water conditions in critical areas where large quantities of water might be pumped for industrial and public-supply use. Detailed reports on the ground-water resources of the Pawtucket and Georgiaville quadrangles, industrial areas to the northwest of Providence, were 

completed in 1947. It ia planned to publish these reports aa a part of 

Geological Bulletins 3 and 4 of the Rhode Island Industrial Commission.

During September a paper on the ground-water resources in the vicinity

of Mashapaug Pond, Providence, was presented at the annual meeting of the

I/ 

New England Water Works Association at Boston, Mass. This paper describes

briefly the results of an investigation of ground-water conditions in the 

Gorham well field and includes general methods for obtaining quantitative 

data from a controlled pumping test. A brief detailed investigation of 

ground-water conditions" in the vicinity of Exeter School, a State institution in Washington County, was also completed during 1947. This paper, 

describing the methods of investigation and general ground-water conditions, 

was presented at the New .England meeting of the American Geophysical Union 

in September. The report is tt^>e published at a later date.

The monthly collection of samples of ground water used to determine 

chloride content, which was begun in February 1946, was continued in 1947. 

During the year 36 samples were collected from 3 industrial plants in the

I/ Jeffords, R. M., Jr., and Alien, W. B., Ground-water conditions in 

the vicinity of Mashapaug Pond, Providence, Rhode Island: New England 

W. W. Jour., vol. LX11, No. 1, pp. 38-61, March 1948.

city of Providence where it is thought that salt-water encroachment is 

taking place. The chloride content of these samples was determined at the 

laboratory of the Division of Sanitary Engineering of the Rhode Island 

Department of Health, under the direction of Walter J. Shea, acting 

director.

The observation-well program in Rhode Island was expanded during 1947 

as part of the State-wide ground-water investigation. In December 1946 the 

program included 35 wells, in which measurements of water levels were made 

at daily, weekly, and monthly internals* Readings at one well in Washington 

County, Exeter 8, were discontinued in December 1946. During 1947, 27 

wells were added to the program so that at the end of the year measurements 

were being made daily"in 5 wells, weekly in 22 wells, monthly in 32 wells, 

and twice a year in 3 wells. A water-stage recorder was operated throughout the year in one well, Providence 48. In all about 3,000 water-level 

measurements were made. The location of wells included in the program in 

December 1947 are shown in figure 11.

452 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURE, 1947, NORTHEASTERN STATES

As indicated in the foregoing table, 18 of the observation wells in 

Rhode Island included in this report, for which there are complete records 

in 1947, showed a net rise during the year. The 10 wells that showed net 

declines for 1947 were affected by nearby pumping wells. Three wells. 

Chariestown 18, East Providence 1, and Providence 5, showed no change 

during the year.

In 1947, the precipitation for the State as a whole was 41.63 inches 

or abdut 1.2 inches below normal and about 3.8 inches more than in 1946. 

The precipitation at Providence was 41.71 inches or about 3.3 inches above 

average, and about 4.0 inches more than in 19461

The net rise in water levels during 1947 is the result chiefly of increa,sed precipitation. Heavy rains in the spring caused a rise in the 

water table. -Water levels dropped seasonally, beginning in May, due to 

the needs of plants and to deficient precipitation in August, September, 

and October. Heavy rains in November recharged many of the aquifers resulting in a net rise during the year in many of the'wells.

Water-level measurements have been made since 1939 in wells Cranston 

3 and 4 at the Narragansett Brewing Co. in Cranston. Records show that recharge in the Cranston area has been satisfactory through 1945 and still 

is satisfactory in well Cranston 3 (figure 12). However, in Hay 1947, a 

new well, Cranston 36, installed about 880 feet south of Cranston 4, has 

caused a net decline in ground-water levels in the vicinity of the new 

well, as shown by the records of water-level measurements obtained in well 

Cranston 4. The net decline in well Cranston 4, from the beginning of 

record on June 22, 1939, to the end of 1947, amounted to 13.5 feet. The 

steady decline from the end of May 1947 to the end of the year coincides 

with the period of pumping of the new well, Cranston 36, which was pumped 

at an average rate of 1.2 million gallons a day. Pumpage from the entire 

well field in 1947 amounted to an average of about 2 million gallons a day.

In order to show examples of trends in ground-water levels in different 

types of deposits in Rhode Island, the graphs of three observation wells, 

Cumberland 129, ending in till, Cumberland 265, ending in outwash, and 

Providence 113, ending in bedrock, are shown in figure 13. It is evident 

from an examination of these graphs that till deposits show the greatest 

range in. water level and bedrock shows the least.

VERMONT

By H. L. Free, Jr. 

PROGRAM OF WORK

Periodic meaaurementa of water level in Vermont, begun in October 

1942, were continued in 1947 on & monthly basia in one shallow observation 

well in the town of Middlesex, Waahington County, near Wrightsville, which 

ia about 3 milea north of Montpelier. Twelve measurements were made during 

the year.

FLUCTUATIONS OP WATER LEVEL

In 1947 the net drop in water level waa about 0.5 foot. The precipitation, aa measured at nearby Northfield, totaled 38.35 inchea in 1947, 

which was 4.51 inchea above normal. However, .greatly below normal prpcipltation during moat of the latter part of the year prevented aufficient recharge to raise the water level to ita position at the beginning of the 

year, resulting in a small net loss in ground-water storage.

The water level was above or near average from the firat of January 

through the end of August and below average throughout the rest of the 

year. It was at a new high level for the month at the end of January, May, 

July, and August, and waa close to or at ita loweat monthly stage" at the 

end of October, November, and December.

The abrupt riae in water level in January reaulted largely from the 

greater-than-uaual proportion of the above normal precipitation which fell 

as rain on ground that had leas snow cover than usual. During February 

the anow cover retarded increments to ground-water storage, thereby.contributing to the drop in water level. The riae in March was due partly to 

temperatures high enough to melt part of the anow cover. Far below normal 

precipitation during April contributed to the drop in water level during 

that month. The water level then rose to a new May high for the period 

1943-48 as a result of rainfall which was well above normal. The decline

in water level from the end of May to the end of October waa interrupted
