Collection of Groundwater Quality Data from Maryland
Summary
Collection consists of paper and electronic files of data from individual wells and springs that have been tested for water quality as part of an ongoing statewide assessment of ground-water quality. Data from the collection is documented in publications and annual administrative reports. Results of groundwater samples collected by the Maryland Geological Survey that were analyzed by the USGS National Water Quality lab have been entered into the USGS National Water Information System (NWIS). Some laboratory results of groundwater sample analyses from state or private labs exist only in paper and spreadsheet format at the Maryland Geological Survey and have not been fully inventoried or catalogeed.
