A preliminary study of the distribution of saline water in the bedrock aquifers of eastern Wisconsin

January 1, 1961

The occurrence of saline water in the bedrock aquifers of eastern Wisconsin has been known for many years. Because of the ready availability of fresh water from other sources, little has been known of the extent of the saline-water area. Saline ground water is a potential source of contamination to wells if it moves into fresh-water zones.
