  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Chemical analyses of ground‐&lt;/span&gt;water&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;samples taken from differing depths in a four‐county area in east Texas showed a general stratification with respect to dissolved&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;iron&lt;span&gt;, pH and hardness. On the basis of this stratification the waters of the ground‐&lt;/span&gt;water&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;reservoir were divided into a shallow zone of oxidation, A; a deep zone of reduction, C; and an intermediate and unstable zone, B, in which waters from above and below are mixed. Ground&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;water&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;from zones A and C generally is almost free of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;iron&lt;span&gt;, whereas&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;water&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;from zone B generally contains objectionable amounts. This zoning is explained by recent laboratory work and theoretical data on&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;iron&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;in natural waters.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Wells&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;constructed to draw only from zones A or C should yield&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;water&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;relatively free of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;iron&lt;span&gt;.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
