Ground-water levels and chemical quality in Geauga County, Ohio, 1978

Abstract

PREPARED IN COOPERATION WITH GEAUGA COUNTY SANITATION ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT Abstract (Limit: 200 words)A ground-water well inventory, water level measurements, and water-quality samplings were obtained in Geauga County, Ohio. A ground-water potentiometric-surface map and a potentiometric-surface change map were constructed to provide a data base for future studies of the effects of ground-water development.Water levels were found to fluctuate little except where nearby or recent pumping had occurred. Water-quality was found to meet Ohio EPA and U.S. Public Health Service Standards for domestic use except where iron and manganese were greater. Document Analysis a.
