WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURES 

IN OBSERVATION WELLS IN THE UNITED STATES 

IN 1950

Part 3. NORTH-CENTRAL

Introduction 

By A. N. Sayre

The publication of records of water levels and artesian pressures annually in the United 

States was begun by the Geological Survey in 1935. Prior to 1940 the records were published in 

a single volume--1935, 777; 1936, 817; 1937, 840; 1938, 845; 1939, 886. Since 1940 records 

have been published in six volumes, covering the northeastern, southeastern, north-central, 

south-central, northwestern, and southwestern sections of the country. Hawaii is included in 

the southwestern section. The following table gives the numbers of water-supply papers from 

1940 through 1950.

Ground-water investigations are concerned with the availability of usable water supplies, 

land drainage, flood control, construction of waterways and dams, mine drainage, and other 

problems to which the principles of ground-water hydrology are pertinent. Water levels in wells 

indicate the stages of the aquifers; they show the extent to which water supplies are depleted by 

drought or by heavy pumping, and the extent to which they are replenished in seasons of abundant 

rainfall or melting snow. The recorded changes of pressure in artesian wells also indicate depletion or replenishment of the artesian supplies.

This volume gives records of water levels and artesian press urea in observation wells in 

the north-central States (Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, 

South Dakota, and Wisconsin). Of the 1, 672 wells listed, 100 are equipped with recording gages. 

Descriptive matter for some wells is given in previous reports. For wells not previously reported, complete records of water levels are given. For wells whose previous records have been 

published, this volume gives only the current records.

Before 1943, the water levels and artesian pressures for some wells were given in feet 

above or below the measuring points and for other wells, in feet above or below sea level or, 

above or below various assumed datum planes. In 1943, a precise datum plane was selected at 

each well which was approximately the land surface. The water levels and artesian heads for all 

wells listed in this volume are referred to land-surface datum or mean sea level. Water levels 

above this datum are preceded by a plus (+) sign, those below this datum have no sign, but are 

understood to be minus (-), unless otherwise indicated.
WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURES, 1950, NORTH-CENTRAL STATES

Measurements of water levels and artesian pressures in wells were made under the 

direction of the district supervisors of the Ground Water Branch in the several States. Verda 

M. Dougherty edited the reports; Rodney Hart edited the illustrations; and Penn Livingstoh had 

general charge of the nation-wide observation-well program. This volume was typed by Mrs. 

Joyce Wells.

Scope of Water-Level Program

Measurements of water level were continued in 1950 in the well at Princeton, in Bureau 

County. This well is equipped with a float-tape gage, and was first measured in November 1942; 

observations have been made at approximately weekly intervals since that time. A total of 51 

measurements was made in this well in 1950.

Fluctuations of Water Level

The water level in the well at Princeton during 1950 followed the general pattern of 

previous years, as indicated by figure 2. The high water level occurred in the spring and was 

followed by progressively lower levels through the remainder of the year. The high of 4.79 feet 

recorded on April 29 is 4.07 feet higher than the 1949 high. Water levels during the second 

half of the year were slightly higher than those of the previous year. The low of 18.38 feet recorded on December 30 is 2.61 feet above the 1949 low.

Scope of Water-Level Program

The observation-well program in Iowa was continued in 1950 in cooperation with the State 

Geological Survey. Measurements were made in 196 wells; 25 of which were equipped with recording gages. (See fig. 3.) Approximately 1,800 tape measurements were made in 1950.

Fluctuations of Water Levels

The average total precipitation over the State in 1950 was 29.12 inches, about 2.25 inches 

below normal. Except for March, precipitation averaged above-normal amounts during the first 

7 months of the year, but the deficiency in soil moisture that developed late in 1949 was not overcome until May. Even during the wet months, inequalities in distribution caused some areas to 

suffer from lack of moisture at the same time that excessively heavy rains caused soil erosion 

and floods in nearby areas. Precipitation became deficient in mid-August, Amounts were well 

below normal during the remainder of the year. As in 1949, a serious water shortage developed 

in some rural areas, especially in the south-central counties and in the northwest.

The general conditions throughout the State are shown by the following table:

departure from normal, at the nearest II. S. Weather Bureau station, 1950.

Shallow observation wells were established in 1934 in the Tarkio Creek area, which covers 

parts of Montgomery and Page Counties in Iowa, and Atchison County in Missouri. Measurements 

have been made at least once a month for almost the entire period of record. Records of wells 

in the Missouri part of the area are given in the section of this report that deals with that Stat e. 

The general upward trend of the water levels is indicated by the average of the readings in eight 

wells (Nos. 1, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12, 15, and 17).

The fluctuation of the average water level as indicated by these wells and the precipitation 

at Shenandoah since 1934 are shown by months in figure 4. The fluctuation of'the water level in 

well 87-28-29N1 representative of shallow observation wells and domestic farm wells which tap 

the same water-bearing beds in glacial drift is shown in figure 5. The monthly precipitation at 

Fort Dodge, shown also on the graph, correlates closely with fluctuations of water level. Figure 

6 shows the depth to the water table in well 84-6-20N1. Close correlation between precipitation 

and the water-level fluctuations in this well is evident. Well 83-7-21K1 (fig. 7) is illustrative of 

artesian rock wells affected by seasonal withdrawals for industrial and air-conditioning purposes. 

This is an unused well completed at a depth of 156 feet in the upper part of dolomite of Silurian 

age which is locally about 400 feet thick. Most wells in Cedar Rapids develop water supplies for 

air-conditioning and industrial use from these strata. On December 31, 1950, the water level 

was 62.58 feet, which is 5.36 feet below its stage of December 31, 1943.

Well-Numbering System

The numbers assigned to observation wells in Iowa, other than those in the Tarkio Creek 

area, show the location of the wells according to the rectangular system for subdivision of public 

land. Each well number is made up of three segments, separated by hyphens. The first and 

second segments indicate the township and range. The third segment includes the section, 

followed by a letter representing the 40-acre subdivision of the section, as shown by the following 

diagram, and the serial number of the particular well. The letter E is added to the second segment representing the range when a well is east of the fifth principal meridian. For other wells, 

it is understood that the range indicated is west of the meridian. For example, the number76-31-25P1 indicates a well in T. 76 N., R. 31 W., in the SE^SWi sec. 25, serial number 1.

KANSAS 

By Betty I. Mason, LaVonne Godwin, and W. W. Wilson

Scope of Water-Level Program

The observation-well program in Kansas was continued in 1950 in cooperation with the 

State Geological Survey, the Division of Water Resources of the State Board of Agriculture, and 

the Division of Sanitation of the State Board of Health. In addition to the State agencies, the city 

of Wichita cooperated in Harvey, McPherson, and Sedgwick Counties. Also, the observation-well 

program in the Missouri Basin, begun in 1945, was continued in cooperation with the Bureau of 

Reclamation. Measurements for some of the wells in the Missouri Basin program are included 

in this report. Measurements for all of the 311 wells are given in a mimeographed report, 

entitled "Ground-water data collected in the Missouri River Basin units in Kansas during 1950." 

Measurements were made in 587 wells, 11 of which were equipped with recording gages. During 

the year, 8 wells were added and 55 were discontinued.

Results of cooperative ground-water investigations in Rice County, * Barton and Stafford 

Counties, and northeastern Kansas3 were published in 1950.

By John E. Powell

Scope of Water-Level Program

The observation-well program in Minnesota in 1950 was continued in cooperation with the 

Division of Waters of the State Department of Conservation. Periodic measurements were made 

in 12 wells and water-level determinations were obtained from 3 wells equipped with recording 

gages. Reports were completed on investigations of the ground-water resources in the vicinity 

of Cloquet, in Carlton County, and at the Camp Ripley Military Reservation near Little Falls, 

in Morrison County.

Precipitation

Except for the month of February, precipitation from January to May was average. 

Early spring thaws in March caused some minor flooding of streams in the southern part of the 

State. Severe flooding along the Red River of the North and its tributaries and along the 

Mississippi River near Aitkin occurred during April and May as a result of the general spring 

breakup and accompanying precipitation. Less-than-average precipitation occurred in June, 

August, and September, but above-average precipitation dccurred in July. The first fall snows 

came in October, a month of above-average precipitation. November was drier than usual, but 

December was wetter than usual with record-breaking snows in the Duluth and Minneapolis areas.

Fluctuations of Water Levels

As in previous years, the water levels were low during the winter, the lowest stages 

occurring in March and April before the spring breakup. Owing to recharge resulting from 

downward percolation of the meltwater from the accumulated winter snows, the water levels 

began to rise in April and, in most of the wells, attained highest stages in May. In some wells 

the water levels continued to rise for several months after the spring breakup and did not attain 

highest stages until June,. August, September, or October.

Well-Numbering System

Except for wells at Camp Ripley in Morrison County, wells are numbered in accordance 

with the Bureau of Land Management system of land subdivision. The first numeral of a well 

number indicates the township, the second the range, and the third the section in which the well 

is situated. The lower-case letters, a, b, c, and d, following the section number locate the 

quarter sections (160-acre tract), the second the quarter-quarter section (40-acre tract), and 

the third the quarter-quarter-quarter section (10-acre tract). The letters are assigned in a 

counterclockwise direction, beginning in the northeast quarter. The number of lower-case 

letters indicate the accuracy of the well location; if the location is known within a 10-acre tract, 

three lower-case letters are shown in the well number. When there is more than one well in 

the smallest significant tract, consecutive numbers beginning with 1 are added as suffixes. Below is a graphical illustration of this method of well numbering within a section of 640 acres.

MISSOURI

By J. B. Cooper

Scope of Water-Level Program

Water-level measurements were made in 13 wells in Atchison County, in 1950 as part of 

the Tarkio Creek Valley observation-well program. Measurements of the observation well in 

Grundy County were continued on a weekly basis. The water levels in the two Phelps County 

wells were measured monthly by engineers from the Rolla office of the Surface Water Branch.

Fluctuations of Water Levels

In the Grundy County well the low measurement of 8.60 feet below land-surface datum 

recorded on December 30 is the lowest on record. The year started with a measurement of 6.17 

feet on January 8. The maximum fluctuation of water level was 3.94 feet with the highest 

reading of 4.66 feet occurring on March 5. The water level was 1.68 feet lower at the end of 

1950 than at the end of 1949.

Fluctuations of water levels in wells in Atchison County, together with the other wells 

in the Tarkio Creek area, are discussed in the section of this volume that deals with Iowa.

Well-Numbering System

The numbers assigned to the observation wells in Missouri show the location of the well 

according to the rectangular system for subdivision of public land. The system used is explained 

fully in the Iowa section of this report.

By R. S. Brown and H. S. Unger

Scope of Water-Level Program

The observation-well program in Nebraska, begun in 1934 in cooperation with the Conservation and Survey Division, University of Nebraska, was continued in 1950. Many of the well 

records in this report have been compiled as a part of the Missouri Basin Development program. 

Since 1945, the observation-well program has been supported in large part by Missouri Basin 

funds. As a result of this participation, the number of measurements made and the number of 

wells in which water-level measurements are obtained has been increased. Likewise, the 

cooperative test-drilling program has been expanded. Water level measurements for wells not 

listed in this report but which have been published in previous water-level reports are kept in 

open file pending publication in other forms. Measurements of water levebmade in 368 wells 

are given in this report. The following organizations cooperated informally: Fish and Wildlife 

Service in Garden County, Central Nebraska Public Power and Irrigation District in Lincoln 

County, Platte Valley Public Power and Irrigation District in Keith County, and the State Department of Roads and Irrigation in Morrill County.

Precipitation

The average annual precipitation in Nebraska in 1950 was 22. 21 inches, 0.52 inches 

below normal and 3.15 inches below that of 1949.

Pumpage

The following tables give the total pumpage for the public supplies of Lincoln and Grand 

Island. The Lincoln public supply is pumped from 12 wells in the flood plain of the Platte River 

about 3 miles north of Ashland. Pumping began in August 1932, and by the end of 1950 a total 

of approximately 59, 868 million gallons of water had been withdrawn from the ground-water 

reservoir. The public supply at Grand Island is pumped from a group of wells in the Platte 

Valley in sands and gravels of Pleistocene age.

principal meridian, which passes through Columbus, are preceded by the capital letter A. Those 

west of Columbus have nq preceding letter. The first number indicates the township, the second 

the range, and the third the section. The lower-case letters, which follow the section number, 

indicate the position of the well within the section, the first letter indicating the quarter section 

and the second letter the quarter-quarter section. The letters a, b, c, and d are applied in 

counterclockwise direction beginning with a in the northeast quadrant. The last numeral indicates the serial number of the well within the tract of land indicated by the last letter. No 

number is shown unless more than one well is within the given tract of land.

NORTH DAKOTA

By J. E. Powell, P. D. Akin, and G. A. LaRocque, Jr.

Scope of Water-Level Program

The observation-well program in North Dakota was continued in 1950 in cooperation with 

the State Water Conservation Commission and the State Geological Survey and in connection with 

the Missouri Basin program. At the end of 1950, water levels were being measured in 194 

observation wells, 5 of which were equipped with recording gages. Location of observation wells 

is shown on figure 8. Water-level records for many of the wells listed in the 1949 report (see 

Water-Supply Paper 1158) are not continued in the present report. The publication of data for 

these wells in the annual water-level reports has been discontinued. Water-level data for these 

wells may be published in project reports. Under the Federal-State cooperative program, field 

work was done in connection with the investigation of ground-water conditions in the vicinities of 

the towns of Streeter, Richardton, Bowbells, and Devils Lake. Reports on ground-water conditions in the vicinities of the towns of Wyndmere, Kindred, and Portland were published in mimeographed form; reports on ground-water conditions in the vicinities of the towns of Neche, 

Litchville, and Mohall were completed and were sent to Washington for review prior to publication.

Precipitation

As reported by the U. S. Weather Bureau, the average precipitation over the State 

amounted to 18.23 inches in 1950 or 1.11 inches more than the annual average. The average 

precipitation for the State was high during the months of January, March, May, September, and 

December. The greatest monthly departures from the average were +1.16 inches in May and 

-0.58 inches in August. Departures from average precipitation at stations ranged from -1-8.63 

inches at Mohall to -5.96 inches at the Fargo airport. Below average precipitation occurred in 

the southeastern part of the State and in a relatively narrow area extending northeastward from 

the southwest corner of the State into the northeast quarter.

Fluctuations of Water Levels

The average monthly water levels in selected observation wells in the State from 1937 

through 1950 are given in the following table. The average water levels, given in feet above 

assumed datum planes, are based on water-level measurements in from 8 to 42 observation 

wells. The averages for 1950 were computed from data from 11 observation wells in which water 

levels were measured weekly. Of these wells, four are in the Red River drainage basin, one is 

in the Devils Lake interior drainage basin, and five are in the Missouri River drainage basin. 

Figure 9 is a graphical presentation of the average monthly water levels and shows the nature 

and magnitude of the average water-level fluctuations.

Monthly average water levels, in feet above assumed datum planes, in 

observation wells in North Dakota, 1937-50.

140 WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURES, 1950, NORTH-CENTRAL STATES

As in previous years, the water levels were lowest during the winter months because of 

the lack of recharge from precipitation when the ground is frozen. The lowest stages of the year 

occurred in March. The water levels began to rise in April owing to water entering the ground 

concurrently with the melting of the accumulated winter snows and the thawing of the ground 

surface during the spring break-up. The water levels rose rapidly in May and reached their 

highest stages in June. With the advent of the summer season, water losses through evaporation 

and transpiration proceeded at an increased rate and the water levels began to lower. With the 

exception of a slight rise that occurred in October, this general lowering continued until the end 

of the year. At the end of 1950, the average water level in the 11 selected observation wells was 

0.5 foot higher than at the end of 1949. This over-all increase in the stage of the water levels 

reflects the effects of above-average precipitation during the early part of the year and the lowerthan-average temperatures that occurred during the summer months and resulted in less-thanaverage ground-water losses through evaporation and transpiration.

Well-Numbering System

The well-numbering system is based upon the location of the well with respect to the 

land-survey divisions used in North Dakota. The numbers are divided into three parts. The 

first part, a group of numbers, gives the township north of the base line; the second part, also 

a group of numbers, gives the range west of the fifth principal meridian. The third part consists 

of a number followed by lower-case letters which are again followed by a number. In this third 

part, the first number gives the section in which the well is situated; the lower-case letters give 

the section subdivisions, the first indicating the quarter section, the second the 40-acre tract 

within the quarter section, and the third the 10-acre tract within the 40-acre tract. In all cases, 

the letters a, b, c, and d refer to the NE|, the NWi, the SWi, and SE^, respectively. In the 

third part of the well number, the number following the lower-case letters simply refers to the 

numerical order in which the wells were scheduled in the smallest tract of land indicated by the 

last lower-case letter. If, for instance, two wells were scheduled in a tract of land and the 

locations of the wells were given by the same lower-case letters, then the wells would be 

designated by the numbers 1 or 2 following the letters. In this report, the locations of most 

of the wells are given only to the nearest 40-acre tract but the locations of some are given to the 

nearest 10-acre tract. As an example the first well scheduled in the NE|SW£ sec. 5, T. 138 N., 

R. 57 W. is 138-57-5cbl. If a second well were scheduled in this same tract of land, it would 

be 138-57-5cb2.

SOUTH DAKOTA 

By George A. LaRocque, Jr.

Scope of Water-Level Program

The observation-well program, started in 1935, was continued through cooperation with 

the State Geological Survey until 1946. Beginning in 1946, the measurements have been continued 

as part of the Missouri River Basin program. The observation-well program has been carried 

on to determine the general index of the change in ground-water levels throughout the State; and 

in conjunction with the ground-water investigation in areas which may be irrigated. Groundwater investigation in the Oahe area, completed through 1950, includes an inventory of wells for 

about two-thirds of the area; the collection of water samples from about 1,500 wells in the glacial 

drift for partial or complete chemical analysis; the collection of water samples from about 100 

wells in the Dakota sandstone for complete chemical analysis; the compilation of a map of the 

surficial outwash channels; the partial supervision of the test-drilling and observation-well installation program of the Bureau of Reclamation; and the measurement of about 350 observation 

wells that are either privately or Government owned. The Sand Lake-Crow Creek area investigation is for the purpose of collecting and compiling data necessary to evaluate the requirements 

for the disposal of excess ground and surface water. The purpose of the Rapid Valley investigation was to determine if there was an excess of ground water which could be recovered and put 

to beneficial use. The Belle Fourche area investigation was a reconnaissance to determine the 

scope and requirements of a future general or detailed investigation. The Angostura area work 

was a continuation of the collection of pre-irrigation ground-water level data.

There are two distinct sources of non-bedrock ground water in South Dakota. East of the 

Missouri River, meager to copious quantities of ground water may be obtained from the aquifers 

deposited during one or more of the periods of glaciation. Most of the aquifers probably were 

deposited during substages of the Wisconsin glacial stage. The ground water in most of the 

glacial aquifers is confined. There are a few flowing wells, but the usual range in depth to water 

is from about 10 feet to 50 feet below land surface, and depths to water of about 100 feet are not 

uncommon. West of the Missouri River most non-bedrock ground water is produced from alluvium or terrace deposits. The ground water may or may not be confined; local variations seem 

to predominate rather than there being regional or large-area variations.

Precipitation

During 1950 the precipitation in the eastern one-third and in the western one-third of the 

State was generally below the long-term average, but in the central one-third precipitation was 

above the long-term average. The period of melting and thawing of the winter's accumulation of 

snow and ice was longer and later in the year than usual, and the average summer temperature 

was generally below normal. Notwithstanding the fact that precipitation was generally below 

average, the net result of the unusually long period of thawing combined with below-average 

summer temperatures was favorable for the recharge of the State's non-bedrock aquifers.

Fluctuations of Water Levels

In eastern South Dakota, changes in ground-water levels do not usually reflect changes in 

the quantity of ground water in storage, but they are an indication of changes in hydrostatic 

pressures. In western South Dakota, the changes'in ground-water levels are generally a measure of the change in quantity of ground water in storage. The following table is a brief summary 

of changes in ground-water level for 1950.

Well-Numbering System

Wells are numbered in accordance with the Bureau of Land Management system of land 

subdivision. The first numeral of a well number indicates the township, the second the range, 

and the third the section in which the well is situated. The lower-case letters, a, b, c, and d, 

following the section number indicate the well location within the section: the first letter denotes 

the quarter section (160-acre tract), the second the quarter-quarter section (40-acre tract), 

and the third the quarter-quarter-quarter section (10-acre tract). The letters are assigned in 

a counterclockwise direction, beginning in the northeast quarter. The number of lower-case 

letters indicate the accuracy of the well location; if the location is known within a 10-acre tract, 

three lower-case letters are shown in the well number. When there is more than one well in 

the smallest significant tract, consecutive numbers beginning with 1 are added as suffixes. 

Well numbers preceded by the capital letters A and D designate wells in the northeast and southeast quadrants, respectively, of the Black Hills meridian and base line system. Well numbers 

not preceded by a capital letter designate wells in the 5th or 6th principal meridian and base lin* 

systems. Below is a graphical illustration of this method of well numbering within a section of 

640 acres.

WISCONSIN 

By W. J. Drescher, A. H. Harder, and R. E. Audini

Scope of Water-Level Program

The observation-well program in Wisconsin was continued in 1950. The program was 

expanded to include 193 observation wells of which 28 are equipped with recording gages and 4 

with nonrecording gages. Cooperation in furnishing water levels is acknowledged from the State 

Conservation Department, the Commanding Officer of Camp Williams, the State Public Service 

Corporation, the Wisconsin Valley Improvement Company, the Baraboo City Water Department, 

and the University of Wisconsin experimental farm at Hancock.

Investigation of the ground-water resources of Wisconsin in cooperation with the University of Wisconsin was continued during 1950. Special studies were continued in the MilwaukeeWaukesha, Brown County, Langlade County, and Marshfield areas. Special studies were begun 

in Portage County, Lafayette County, and in the Niellsville area. The studies in the Marshfield 

and Niellsville area were geophysical investigations of possible aquifers and reports are in preparation.

Fluctuations of Water Levels

Precipitation in Wisconsin in 1950 averaged 30.54 inches which is 0.22 inches above 

normal. In 1949 precipitation was 2.52 inches below normal. The greatest precipitation 

occurred in the southwestern part of the State and the least in the central part.

The precipitation was generally reflected by water levels in shallow wells in the State. 

Following are net changes in water levels in representative wells from December 1949 to 

December 1950. Figure 10 shows fluctuations of water levels in water-table wells Sw-7 and 

Pr-6 in northern Wisconsin.

In the Milwaukee-Waukesha area most deep artesian wells showed a net decline during 

1950. The lowest water levels, however, were not so low as in 1949. The following table shows 

net changes, annual highest and lowest water levels with dates, and the total seasonal fluctuation in the wells in the Milwaukee-Waukesha area during 1950. Well Wk 14 is not included in 

the wells described above. All measurements are in feet below land-surface datum. Figure 11 

shows the hydrograph of well Ml 36, a representative well in Milwaukee County.

WISCONSIN, BROWN COUNTY 169

Artesian water levels in the Green Bay area continued to decline in 1950. The net decline 

in well Bn9 in Green Bay showed a net decline of about 36 feet. The lowest water .level in Bn 9 

was 315.07 on August 5, 6.09 feet lower than the lowest in 1949. Well Bn 11 in DePere showed 

a net decline of 14.89 feet. The lowest water level in Bn 11 was 136. 89 on August 21, 4.99 

feet lower than the lowest in 1949. Artesian water levels in wells away from heavily pumped 

areas showed no significant changes during 1950 except in southeastern Wisconsin where they 

continued a downward trend. Well Ra 5 at Sturtevant in Racine County showed a net decline of 

10.69 feet compared with a decline of 5.58 feet in 1949.

Well-Numbering System

Wells are numbered consecutively within each county. The counties are designated by 

a two-letter abbreviation derived from the county name. For instance, Bn 9 designates well 

number 9 in Brown County.
