Summary

Of the approximately 6.6 million people living in the Mississippi embayment (MISE) region in the central United States, approximately 65 percent rely on groundwater for their drinking water (Dieter, Linsey, and others, 2017). Regional assessments of water quality in principal aquifer systems provide context for the long-term availability of these water resources for drinking-water supplies. To assess the current (2018) status of water quality in MISE in relation to drinking water supplies, groundwater withdrawal zones used for domestic and public supply were modeled using available groundwater well and hydrogeologic framework data. Three dimensional surfaces were modeled to map the depth zones at which groundwater is withdrawn for [...]

Purpose

Raster surfaces represent the bottom and top altitude of well screens withdrawing groundwater for public and domestic supply and were modeled as part of the U.S. Geological Survey National Water Quality Assessment project’s intensive principal aquifer analysis of the Mississippi River Valley alluvial aquifer and Mississippi embayment aquifer system. Because the focus is on drinking-water supply, raster surfaces were created for the Mississippi River Valley alluvial aquifer (MRVA), middle Claiborne aquifer (MCAQ), and lower Claiborne aquifer (LCAQ).
