“…The part of the Garber-Wellington aquifer lying between the North Canadian River in northern Oklahoma County and the Cimarron River in Logan County was studied by Carr and Marcher (1977); a data report for the project was published separately (Carr and Havens, 1976). An investigation of the Garber-Wellington aquifer lying between the North Canadian and Canadian Rivers in southern Oklahoma and Cleveland Counties and parts of Pottawatomie County was made by Wickersham (1979).…”

There are four major components of the Central Oklahoma aquifer project. The first component is the collection and analysis of existing information, including chemical, hydrologic, and land-use data. The second component is the geohydrologic and geochemical investigations of the aquifer flow system. The third component is the sampling for a wide variety of inorganic, organic, and radioactive constituents as part of a regional survey that will produce a consistent set of data among all groundwater pilot projects. These data can be used to: (1) Define regional groundwater quality within the Central Oklahoma aquifer, and (2) compare water quality in the Central Oklahoma aquifer to the water quality in the other groundwater study units of the NAWQA program. The fourth component is topical studies that will address, in more detail, some of the major water-quality issues pertaining to the aquifer.

Intrusion of saline water into the freshwater zone is a potential threat to water quality in the aquifer if the pressure head in the freshwater zone is reduced sufficiently to allow upconing of saline water. One way to avoid the problem of upconing is by steady pumping at low rates from widely spaced wells; however, information required to determine pumping rates and well spacing is not available. For proper aquifer management the distribution of wells and rates of withdrawals should be designed to capture maximum recharge to the groundwater system. This may be accomplished by developing regional groundwater gradients that are sufficiently large to move water to pumpage centers but not so steep as to cause upconing of saline water or excessive water-level declines. Particular acknowledgment is due Messrs. John H. Marsh and John S. Fryberger, Engineering Enterprises Consulting Engineers and Hydrogeologists, who provided specific-capacity data from wells at Norman, Oklahoma, that were used to prepare figure 11.
