A 72-hour constant-discharge aquifer test was performed at the University of Georgia Stripling Irrigation Research Park, Mitchell County, Georgia, in order to assess the potential of the Claiborne aquifer as a source of water for irrigation supply. At the Stripling site the Claiborne aquifer is 260 feet thick. Between the Claiborne aquifer and the overlying Upper Floridan aquifer is the Lisbon confining unit; between the Claiborne aquifer and the underlying Clayton aquifer is the Wilcox confining unit. Claiborne aquifer well 11J029 was pumped at a rate of 579 gallons per minutes from about 2015 December 15 at about 9:00 a.m. to 18 at about 9:00 a.m. Water levels were monitored in a nearby Upper Floridan aquifer...
