No Aquifer M aterialor Lim ite d Data

Newton County is locate d in the northwest p ortion of Ind iana, ad jace nt to the state of Illinois to the west, and is b ound e d b y the counties of Lake, Jasp er, and Be nton. The e ntire county lies within the Kankake e River Basin.The Pote ntiom etric Surface M ap (PSM ) of the b e d rock aquifers of Newton County was m ap p e d b y contouring the e levations of 287 static water-leve ls re p orte d on we ll re cord s re ce ive d prim arily over a 50 year p eriod . These we lls are com p lete d in aquifers at various d e p ths, and typ ically, und er confine d cond itions (b ound e d b y im p erm eab le layers ab ove and b e low the water b earing form ation). However, som e we lls were com p lete d und er unconfine d (not b ound e d b y im p erm eab le layers) settings. The p ote ntiom etric surface is a m easure of the pressure on water in a water b earing form ation. W ater in an unconfine d aquifer is at atm osp heric pressure and will not rise in a we ll ab ove the top of the aquifer, in contrast to ground water in a confine d aquifer which is und er hyd rostatic pressure and will rise in a we ll ab ove the top of the water b earing form ation.

U niversal Transverse M ercator (U TM ) coord inates for the water we lls were e ither p hysically ob taine d in the fie ld , d eterm ine d through ad d ress ge ocod ing, or re p orte d on water we ll re cord s. The location of the m ajority of the water we ll re cord s use d to m ake the PSM were fie ld verifie d . Elevation d ata were ob taine d from a d igital e levation m od e l. Quality control/quality assurance proce d ures were utilize d to re fine or rem ove d ata where errors were read ily ap p are nt.Pote ntiom etric surface e levations range from a high of 740 fe et m ean sea leve l (m sl) in the southeast p ortion of the county, to a low of 620 fe et m sl along the northwest corner, west-ce ntral e d ge, and southwest areas of the county. Ground water flow d ire ction is toward s the Kankake e River in the northern part of the county, toward s the Iroquois River in the southern area, with an overall western trend in the ce ntral p ortion of the county.Be d rock p ote ntiom etric surface e levation contours have not b e e n exte nd e d through p ortions of the county. These areas are lacking in d ata and /or covere d b y m ore prolific unconsolid ate d d e p osits that lim it the ne c essity to com p lete we lls in b e d rock.

Static water-leve l m easure m e nts in ind ivid ual we lls use d to construct county PSM ’s are ind icative of the water-leve l at the tim e of we ll com p letion. The ground water leve l within an aquifer constantly fluctuates in resp onse to rainfall, evap otransp iration, ground water m ove m e nt and pum p age. There fore, m easure d static water-leve ls in an area m ay d iffer d ue to local or seasonal variations. Be cause fluctuations in ground water are typ ically sm all, static water-leve ls can b e use d to construct a ge neralize d PSM . As a ge neral rule, b ut certainly not always, ground water flow ap p roxim ates the overlying top ograp hy and interse cts the land surface at m ajor stream s.

The county PSM can b e use d to d e fine the re gional ground water flow path and to id e ntify significant areas of ground water re charge and d ischarge. County PSM ’s re p rese nt overall regional characteristics and are not inte nd e d to b e a sub stitute for site-sp e cific stud ies.
