USGS ACF-NAWQA River Basin Study
Study Design: Ground Water


Ground-Water

Because few ground-water data existed within the ACF River basin prior to this study, the ground-water monitoring network was designed primarily to provide information on the occurrence and distribution of a large suite of compounds that can be used to better identify problem areas, and define related questions and issues. Data collected during this first cycle of intensive data collection also will provide a valuable reference for comparison with the data collected during subsequent cycles of intensive data collection.
