| Abstract: | Protection of New York State ‘s aquifers has become an increasingly important issue among water resource managers at all levels of State and Local government. Aquifer delineation is necessary as an initial phase in the effective management of the State ‘s groundwater resources. Many of New York ‘s productive aquifers consist of unconsolidated deposits. In an effort to obtain complete coverage of all the significant unconsolidated aquifers in New York, the U.S. Geological Survey and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation began a cooperative study in 1985 to compile groundwater availability maps of each major river basin. This map delineates the unconsolidated aquifers that underlie the State ‘s northernmost eight counties and gives the estimated potential yield of properly constructed wells completed in these aquifers. Additional well locations and delineation of the aquifers were obtained through a well inventory conducted during the study. (Lantz-PTT) |
