Computerized groundwater-flow models provide scientific analysis of water resources. Since its initial development in 2014, the Columbia County groundwater-flow model has been used to respond to requests for information about specific groundwater and land use issues. This companion report to the Hydrogeology and simulation of groundwater flow in Columbia...

The WGNHS and the U.S. Geological Survey characterized the hydrogeology and developed a groundwater flow model to assess groundwater resources in Columbia County. This report describes regionally extensive aquifers and presents several extensive datasets collected from deep wells across the county. The report also documents the construction and...

Analysis of the groundwater resources in Bayfield County, Wisconsin. Includes report, five plates, and digital data.

This report documents the groundwater flow model that was developed for western Chippewa County, Wisconsin. It also presents analyses that were run to evaluate how industrial sand (frac sand) mining and irrigated agriculture--might affect the water table and base flows of nearby headwater streams.

This report provides information about well construction, groundwater flow, and resulting implications for well susceptibility in Bayfield County, Wisconsin. The work follows an earlier groundwater study that focused on two agricultural areas within Bayfield County.

Information and recommendations concerning groundwater and water supply wells in two agricultural regions in Bayfield County, Wisconsin. Includes a report, a water-table map, a set of four cross sections, and GIS data. (Replaces WOFR2015-02.)

In 2012, Chippewa County commissioned the Wisconsin Geological Survey and the U.S. Geological Survey to conduct a 5-year study of the groundwater resources in the western part of the county. This 4-page publication describes the study and the computer models being developed for it.

Most Wisconsin municipalities already disinfect their water supply. For those that don't, this publication describes how viruses from untreated sewage can contaminate groundwater, causing acute gastrointestinal illness. It also identifies available technology for treating water.

Three-part series describes the results of a comprehensive inventory and assessment of Columbia County's groundwater resources. Covers water-table elevation, groundwater recharge, and groundwater susceptibility.
