EAST-CENTRAL IOWA
---NEW---

|
A one-year investigation of the geology and hydrology of the
Silurian
aquifer in east-central Iowa was undertaken to provide a more
quantitative assessment of groundwater availability, and to
construct a groundwater flow model for the Silurian aquifer that
can be used as a planning tool for future water resource
development. |
