Abstract:

A map was prepared that shows the net change in the potentiometric surface of the Magothy aquifer (in the Cretaceous Magothy Formation) in southern Maryland from the fall of 1986 to the fall of 1988. The map, based on water level measurements from 79 observation wells, shows that during the 2 year period the potentiometric surface declined less than 5 ft in most of the northern part of the study area and more than 10 ft in a 4-sq-mi area in northern Charles County. Net water-level rises of as much as 2 ft were measured in central Charles County. (USGS)
