Impact/Purpose:
The purpose of this report is to present the results of borehole-geophysical well logging and water-quality sampling to determine concentrations of selected natural contaminants that constitute water supplied by three bedrock water systems in New Hampshire.
Description:
In 2008, the USEPA, NHDES and US Geological Survey initiated a data collection effort to evaluate borehole characterization methods for identifying natural contaminant flow into bedrock water-supply wells. The investigation: 1) tests methods at a variety of bedrock supply well systems, and 2) tests characterization techniques to assess if cost effectiveness and widespread applicability can be achieved. This work was funded by a Regional Applied Research Effort (RARE) grant through ORD.
