Potential yields of wells in unconsolidated aquifers in upstate New York — Hudson-Mohawk sheet Potential yields of wells in unconsolidated aquifers in upstate New York — Hudson-Mohawk sheet

This map shows the location and potential well yields of unconsolidated aquifers in the Hudson-Mohawk region at a scale of 1:250,000. It also delineates segments of aquifers that are heavily used by community water systems and designated by the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation as ' Primary Water Supply ' aquifers, and cites published reports that give detailed...

Hydrogeology of the Olean area, Cattaraugus County, New York Hydrogeology of the Olean area, Cattaraugus County, New York

Most principal aquifers in upstate New York are unconsolidated glacial and alluvial deposits within bedrock valleys. Groundwater in these aquifers can be under either water table (unconfined) or artesian (confined) conditions. Farms, industries, or towns and cities have been built upon many of these aquifers because they form level areas suitable for development and generally provide an...

Surficial geology of Panther Lake quadrangle, Oswego County, New York Surficial geology of Panther Lake quadrangle, Oswego County, New York

The location and extent of eight kinds of surficial deposits in Panther Lake quadrangle, Oswego County, N.Y., are mapped on a 7.5-minute U.S. Geological Survey topographic map. The map was compiled to indicate the lithology and potential for groundwater development at any specific location.
