Summary

Well and aquifer data were collected from field measurements and drillers’ logs. Multiple slug tests were completed at each well with a transducer to record the change in water level and a U.S. Geological Survey standard mechanical slug to displace the well’s water column. A Solinst Levelogger LT F30/M10 electronic transducer (unvented) was used to record water-level changes during each slug test. Water-level changes for each trial were analyzed in AQTESOLV Pro version 4.50.002 using the Springer and Gelhar method of curve fitting.

Purpose

Data were collected to better understand the Big Sioux aquifer's hydraulic conductivity north of Sioux Falls, South Dakota. This dataset supported the construction and calibration of a groundwater-flow model of the Big Sioux aquifer near Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
