Tests of artesian wells in the Cold Creek area, Washington

Geology and ground-water characteristics of the Hanford Reservation of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, Washington

“…The altitude of the original pressure level of the ground water in the Cold Creek artesian basin may have been as high as 1,138 feet (altitude of the water level reported in 1925 by the driller of the Ford well, 13/24-25E1). In 1960 the potentiometric surface stood at about 1,000 feet at the McGee well (13/25-30G1) ; from there it rose upvalley at about 7 feet per mile (Hart, 1958). Both the artesian aquifer of the upper Cold Creek syncline and, by inference, that of the Dry Creek syncline are believed to be terminated by structural barriers that aline with the mountain front north and south of Dry Creek.…”

Storage of ground water behind subsurface dams in the Columbia River basalt, Washington, Oregon, and Idaho

“…25, 26, 27, 34, 35, and 36, T. 13 N., R. 24 E., and sees. 30 and 31, T. 13 N., R. 25 E. (Hart, 1958). The lower part of this plunging syneline is mantled by sedimentary deposits, which continue eastward beneath the high terraces in the Hanford Reservation of the U.S. Atomie Energy Commission.…”
