Hydrogeology of the Piney Point-Nanjemoy, Aquia, and Upper Patapsco aquifers, Naval Air Station Patuxent River and Webster Outlying Field, St. Marys County, Maryland, 2000–06

Abstract: Patuxent River and Webster Outlying Field ranges from approximately 620 to 680 feet below the North American Vertical Datum of 1988. The potentiometric surface of the Upper Patapsco aquifer near Naval Air Station Patuxent River and Webster Outlying Field has been declining at a rate of about 2 feet per year for the past several years. Aquifer testing indicates the transmissivity of the aquifer is about 2,100 to 3,900 feet squared per day. Water samples collected from the Upper Patapsco aquifer at Naval Air Sta… Show more

“…The Aquia aquifer (table 1) is a deep, confined aquifer consisting of greenish-black quartz sand, glauconite, and lenses of clay and shell beds of the Aquia Formation (Chapelle and Drummond, 1983). The elevation of the top of the Aquia aquifer is approximately -450 ft (feet) relative to the North American Vertical Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88) beneath NAS Patuxent River and WOLF (Klohe and Feehley, 2001), and the thickness of the aquifer decreases from about 100 to 145 ft at NAS Patuxent River to about 50 ft at WOLF (Klohe and Kay, 2007).…”

“…The Upper Patapsco aquifer is a deep, confined aquifer which underlies the Aquia aquifer and consists of sand units interbedded with silt and clay units and is part of the Patapsco Formation of the Potomac Group (Klohe and Kay, 2007). The elevation of the top of the Upper Patapsco aquifer is approximately -660 ft NAVD 88 at well SM Df 100 ( fig.…”
