Date Issued:
1978
Summary:
This report presents the results of a 2-year study undertaken by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Southwest Florida Water Management District. It describes the geology and hydrology of the unconfined aquifer in Charlotte County, and the most feasible methods for reasonably developing the water-supply potential of the aquifer, so that there will not be a long-term decrease in the quantity of water remaining in storage each year. The investigation is based upon information obtained from test holes, observation wells, private wells and excavations into the unconfined aquifer. Some sites outside the county were also investigated to broaden the information base. The overall intent of the investigation is to describe the unconfined aquifer system and to assess the water-supply potential of the aquifer to aid in planning for development and future growth of the county.
