Abstract
One of man's fundamental needs is water. Modern man needs both a safe and dependable supply of water to maintain his present economic, industrial, and cultural level. In order to use this natural resource in the most efficient and beneficial manner, a basic knowledge and understanding of water sources, and of the occurrence and potential of each source, needs to be gained. To provide this information, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Iowa Geological Survey, has compiled this atlas. It describes the water resources available for development in an 11-county area in north-central Iowa. The report contains information on the quantity, quality, and use of water from all known sources of water. This information is presented to aid water users and developers who are searching for and evaluating sources of water for specific sites. It also will be an aid to water planners and managers who must develop the available water resources on a regional basis.
